nounced the engineers OF that line
would remain, holding themselves not
10 be involved in the movement, and
he added that very large percentage
of conductors and trainmen would re-
main.
The general manager Of the MIN
neapolis, st. Paul & Saulte Ste. Marie
road stated assurances OF loyalty had
been received from 40 per cent OF the
trainmen, and the engineers and hre-
men of the road did not take the strike

il not surprising, however. when one

rF,nm Tha Trihune Bureau.l

Washington, Sept. Hearing that
the eight-hour wage day legislation
would not be passed by Congress IN
time to prevent the strike called for I
o'clock Mondoy morning. the House OF
Representatives late to-day took action.
BY vote of 23s to So the House
passed the Adamson bill, to which
President Wilson gave his sanction
yesterday, fixing eight hours as the
standard measurement for pay, and
prescribing that the present pay for
ten hours must be paid after January
| for eight hours work. A commission
of three members to be appointed by
the President will observe the effect Of
this change in the wage basis and re-
port to the President and Congress.
Only two Democrats and ffty-four
Republicans voted against increasing
the trainmen's wages by law, while 17o
Democrats and sixty-nine Republicans
voted for it.
The two Democrats who voted against
this proposal on the final rollcall was
Black. of Texas, and Steele, OF PENN
svlvania. Men who had actually made
speeches against the bill during the
day voted for it finally. Representa-
tive Clark, of Florida, the only Demo-
crat who denounced the bill openly,
was absent when the vote was taken.
He was paired against the measure,
making an actual total Of three Demo-
Gratis against the Presidents solution
of the strike problem.
Day of Wrangling.
The vote came at the end of day OF
vrangling and confusion. Amendments
we're accepted, voted up or down, re-
written and then their position IN the
hill changed by unanimous consent.
Once Republican Leader Mann had 10
noint out 10 Democratic Leader kltchln
and Chairman Adamson, who was IN
charge of the bill, that they had put
an amendment in at the wrong place, so
that il did not make sense. Mr.. hltch-
in answered that he had asked Mr..
Adamson where it should go, which Mr..
AdamSOn at once vigorously ueHleu'
The absolute domination of the sit
uation by the brotherhoods was best
demonstrated by the action OF the
House on an amendment which would
have added to the Adamson bill a pro.
vision for compulsory arbitration or
future labor disputes. This amendment,
which was a part of the programme of
legislation asked for by President VIII
son in his appeal to Congress, was pro,
posed by Representative Sterling oil
Illinois.
At once tom" Hefin and other Dem
ocratic orators began furious attack
on the Republicans for attempting TO
inlay politics" in this crisis. Anxious
TO avoid a vote which would have put
the Democrats on record as opposing
the President if they opposed the
amendment. but which would have an
tagonized the labor unions if they APP
proved it, the proposal was attacked by
Chairman Adamson as mot germane.'
This point of order was sustained,
first by Representative Garrett, of Ten
nessee, then in the chair. and later by
Smoker Clark

Wanted Vote Rushed.

Senator Newlands announced late in
the afternoon that he would like TO
have unanimous consent for contlnu-
Gus session in order TO reach a vote as
soon as possible. Senators Cummins
and Gallinger Immediately stated that
j. was their understanding that the
Senate was 20 pass the House bill and
not the Senate bill, and that sufficient
progress could be made by adjourning
until 10 o'clock in the morning
I'VE may have 20 20 to conference"
said Senator Newlands. "and we want
10 reach a vote by o'clock to-mor-
row"
Senator Borah objected 10 limiting
debate, but without taking any vote
IL seemed 90 be the consensus on both
sides that Senators would be limited 10
one speech and 20 one half hours time,
and then, II every one WAS satisfied,
they would take vote by or 4
o'clock tomorrow.

THIS MAN CAN NOW

Says He Wasn't Fit for Any thing Before He Began Taking Tanlac - Has
 Gained 10 Pounds

"This Tanlac certainly has helped me, and want to recommend it because be- lieve it will help others, said J. h. Evans a we'll known and highly respect ed miner who lives at Irondale, Ala, in talking with F. E. Caine, the we'll known druggist of that place.
 q wasn't down sick, exactly he con- tinued, that is. l still kept going and wasn't down in bed; but l was all run down and was hardly fit for anything in the way of work. But l didn't feel like moving when I got still and didn't seem to have any ambition at all
 q wouldn't sleep any to speak of at night, and in the daytime I felt tired and drowsy, My appetite was no good and there was hardly anything that ever looked like it would taste good to me. I lost some in weight, for this condition pulled me down and made me feel tuck cred out and not able to do my work.
 "Pve always been pretty stout and more than able to hold my hand with the rest of em when anything had to be done, and this sick feeling didn't seem right and I knew something ought to be done; so I got to reading up on Tanlac for I had an idea it was just about what I needed to put me on my feet.
 'I have finished my third bottle now, and it has helped up my energy just like I thought it would. I have gained 10 pounds in weight and can work all day and sleep all night like a man ought to-. I have good appetite, too, and I can eat anything they fetch out, for I seem to be hungry all the time, like I used to be when I was growing up. Tanlac's s a mighty fine medicine and I feel like 4 ought to recommend it to folks who are sick and don't know exactly what is wrong with them. I believe that kind of condition bothers man more than any other sickness"

Slauson, M. E., in Leslie's.

H.fW. SlausOn, M. B., in LesIle 8.
 Many car is sold on the representa- ton that "the Blankmobile will run from seven to ten thousand miles on set of tires" and the motorist thus gleans the opinion that his tires need no attention for that length of time. But no car dealers statement or tire makers guar antee can influence good or bad luck, and it is largely the work of the latter that places the bit of broken glass, the sharp stone, or the protruding nail di- rectly in the path of the unwary tire. Such an obstacle will not necessarily penetrate the tire-the chances are that it will not-but cut will be formed in the outer layer of rubber or tread, which, like an infected wound, will eventually spread and 'inflame" the en- tire surface.
