TRAINMEN TO STRIKE
IF DENIED S-HOUR DAY
Will Disregard Ruling on ADAM
son Law, Says Lee
INV Ta.graph 70 The Trbune.

Cleveland, Nov. 11.-Whether the Su-
preme Court upholds the Adamson law
or holds it TO be unconstitutional is
immaterial to the railroad employees,
who, according to statement given
out to-day by President W. G. Lee Of
the Brotherhood Of Railroad Trainmen.
will strike January on all roads which
at that time fail to put into effect the
eight-hour day
"Any railroad which attempts to
cancel the present schedule of hours
and pay or refuses to put the eight
hour law into effect will find itself
with strike on its hands, law or no
law" Lee said to-day.
THE power given US last spring
when the employees voted to strike un-
less the railroads granted our demands,
is Just as good now as 1t was then. and
will be called into play II necessary.
What the Supreme Court does with the
law is no concern of ours. We have
demanded fair working hours and we
are going to get them.
However, we have no fear that the
Adamson law will be declared unconsti-
tutional. We were advised in the first
place that il would stand the legal
test. We have President Wilson with
US, and be will see TO 1t that the law
is made alright If any flaws are
found in it they can be remedied."

the wall by the embassy he will at

Vaccinations of alleged German secret
agents in this country, and try to show
that the German Embassy is connected
with them.
II is declared in German quarters
here that Immediately after the war
broke out DR.. Graves approached the
German Embassy and offered his ser
vices as a spy and propaganda IN this
country. When the embassy refused
70 have anything to do with him, he
published his books, purporting TO re-
veal the secrets of the German spy
system, and since then has attempted
TO create the impression that he was

On October 90, 1914. he made every
body In New York shudder at the
thought that in exactly fourteen days
London would be destroyed by Yep
pelins. He had the tip direct from
his old comrades In the German Secret
Service. right from the Kaiser's secret
chambers. When DR.. Graves's prophe-
cies failed TO come true. he began TO
lose popularity as magazine and Sun
day newspaper contributor. He was
arrested once or twice. but discharged.
Nothing has been heard of him OF late.

is propitious for compelling New York

in this direction has taken the form OF

continue calling the attention of the
Governor to this until he actually does
something that will help the cause and
cease to "disfranchise the millions or

It is quite possible that we shall not know the result of the delegate cleo tion in the territory for weeks.

Kiana is place far north of Nome, and has miserable means of communication.
 There are several other such places which if not quite so bad, are nearly so.

The detail of the second game is as follows:
 Birming gham-Caton grounded out from Bromwich to Swacina. Mcdonald got a long dounble to right center. Clarke sent long fly to center that looked good for three, but Burke by a miracle catch got the ball. Mcdonald taking third on the play. Carroll ended all chances to score in this inning with an easy bound CT to Holmquist to Swacina. No runs, one hit. no errors
 Mobile-Miller. who having his first chance in regular game, walked Me- Dowell. Whalen sacrificed Miller to Der rick. Burke flew out to Caton.

PLAYING OF VOLS !. FEATURES INITIAL
 WEEK OF SOUTHERN
Vols Playing Aggressive Game-Pels Also Showing Well-Crackers' Play
 ing Erratic

The aggressive drive of the Nash vile team in all departments of play. which has made the Volunteers the league leaders for the first week of play in the Southern association, was topped in their Sunday game by the pitching of Rogers, who let the Chatta- nOOga club down with one hit. winning his game , to 0. The New Orleans PeIi- cans, another team from which much is expected fin the Southern pennant race, showed during the week that its bat ters know how to wieId the stick and after play in their first game in which opposing pitchers suffered, the Pelfcans seemed to reach their best form, too, in their Sunday game, for they landed on Day, an Atlanta pitch except for one ndscue, played errorIess ball.
 Birmingham, also rated as strong at the the bat, seemed to lose ability there, during the latter part of the week, and gathered a total of only 15 hits in the game Saturday and the double- header Sunday, which was split with the Mo bile club. Memphis thus far has demon strated some strength in the box, and with d little more stick work would ac- cording to many critics of the game, show better percentage of games won. The team from the banks of the Mis- sissippi seems to have a pitcher of more than ordinary ability in Merritt, who demonstrated cunning in handling the horse-hide in Saturdays game when he famed three Little Rock travellers when the bases were full, finally winning his game, to 3. Again Sunday the Turtle
 pitching department showed well. for Kerr held the Travellers, rated in pre- season forecasts as aggressive at the bat, to only six hits
 Erratic playing by the Crackers during the week has shown them not yet in the stride that their team, at least on paper, should have, while Mobile Chat tanooga and Little Rock apparently have not demonstrated their ability to win their share of games as yet. The Look outs, however have strengthened their catching department, which was crippled by accidents in the first weeks play, and managers of both the Travellers and the Guls are said to be trying to inStill faster playing into their players,
