Baltimore. Nov. l6.--Leaders of
the four railroad brotherhoods will
address the American Federation Of
Labor convention here next week on
the eight hour principle, Their ap-
pearance Ia expected to inaugurate
a concerted fight for the principle Of
eight hours for a working day for
all classes OF employees.
Al the same time the appear
ance OF the brotherhood leaders---W,
s. Stone, Of the engineers; A. B.
Garretson, OF the conductors; w. G.
Lee, OF the trainmen. and w. s. Car
ter, OF the firemen--is expected to
hasten the coalition OF the railroad
brotherhoods with the American Fed
Grafton OF Labor. y
Labor leaders hope to force an
eight-hour day, not through legisla-
tion, but through the power OF or
ganized labor.

high federation official who reviewed
the above plan said, what Is done
by legislation can be undone. We
want to put through an eight-hour
day principle by direct negotiations
with private. employers. through the
force Of organized labor. We want,

EXCESSIVE MEAT EATING

Most people who are troubled with
fatulency eat more meat than is good
for them. Flatulency is wind on the
stomach. Excessive meat eatingor de-
fective nerve force is responsible in
most cases.
Cutting down the amount OF meat in
your diet and taking course OF treat
ment with DR.. Williams Pink Pills to
, strengthen the weak nerves that control
the digestive processes is we'll worth
trying if you have wind on the stomach,
sour risings in the throat, feeling OF
weakness in the stomach and palpita-
ton OF the heart. Dr. Williams Pink
Pills are recommended for thin blood
and weak nerves, whatever the cause.

proposed to spend approximately $780,

long wait and much court action. j
H Puckett OF Holdenyille, has at last
won out in a damage suit for $-0.-
000 against the Wichita Falls and
Northwestern railway company,
He received injuries in a round
house smash-up in 1913. The case
went to the supreme court on appeal
by the railway company.
Notification of the court decision
was received yesterday by W Booth
Merrill, assistan federal attorney
who represented the railway in the
original action The case was first
tried at Lawton in the state district
court in 1913, when the jury found for
Pickett.
Puckett was employed by the rail-
way as engineer. He was so badly
injured while in the roundhouse at
Wichita Falls that he has been partly
paralyzed since.
The supreme court refused to take
action on the ground that no federal
question was involved, The railway
sought to show that because the suit
was filed in Oklahoma for injuries
sustained in Texas, il was confisca
ton of property without due process
of law, the Oklahoma part of the
railway being separately incorporat-
ed from the Texas part.
The full amount of the claim will
be paid at once said Mr. Merrill. The
only tribunal left to appeal the case
to is The Hague tribunal, he says, and
the war has temporarily put this out
