Railway Presidents Testify
That Eight-Hour Day Works
to Operating Disadvantage

John Howe Peyton, president of the
Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis
Railway Company. in a statement to-
day gives further testimony in 5ebutta1
of the assertion by President Wilson
that the railroads which already have
adopted the eight-hour day do not seem
to their cost of operation as compared
with those that have a tenhour day.
Refutes Magazine Article.
He says that presumably this opin-
ion of the President is based on a re-
cent magazine article, "in which it is
claimed that hundreds of miles of the
most prosperous railroads in the coun-
try are now being operated on an
eight-hour basis. and which mentions
the following roads as being success
fully operated on such basis:
Western territory: Ell Paso and
Southern. Galveston, Harrisburg and
San Antonio. Texas and New Orleans,
Morgan's Louisiana and Texas Rail-
road and Steamship Company. Louisi.
ana Western, Houston and Texas Cen
trail, Houston, East and West Texas,
Houston and Shreveport.
Southeastern territory: Atlanta. Biz
mingham and Atlantic, Atlantic Coast
Line, Central of Georgia, Charleston
and Western Carolina. Florida and
East Coast. Georgia railroad. Louis
VILE and Nashville, Nashville, Chatta
nooga and st. Louis railway. Norfolk
Southern railroad. Seaboard Air Line
railway
Mr.. Peyton declares that this maga-
zine article Is Completely misleading
as to his road, and gives the following
figures of a carefully prepared esti-
mate of what it would have cost the
Nashville. Chattanooga and St Louis
railway had they had the eighthour-
day basis in effect during the year 1915,
which IS the most recent for which
complete statistics are available: In
crease for road freight service would
have been $169.6so.96; increase for yard
service would have been s259, 1882, or
a total of $429,674.Ss.
with increase in business for the
year 1916 the effect of an eighthour-
day basis would have been much more
serious than for the year 1915
President Harahan Testifes.
Additional emphasis is laid on the
statement by w. ]. Harahan. president
Of the Seaboard Air Line railroad, ex-
planning the application of the twelve
-half-mile-an-hour guaranteed
speed basis on the Seaboard, one of the
southeastern roads frequently men
toned as using the eight-hour-day
system. He said the basis was in effect
only in through freight service. affect
ing but SO per cent of the roads en-
that 1t had proved expensive and had
not served to decrease the working
hours of the men, but only to give
them overtime pay.

Strong Personal Plea
Made to Railway Heads
by President Wilson

Tho presidents heard from Mr.. Wilson
at the White House yesterday after
noon . strong personal plea for con-
cessions to avoid q tie-up at time
whom he said every ounce of American
energy has to be mobilized to meet the
extraordinary situation which will
emerge out Of the European war"
As one American citizen to another,
President Wilson appealed to each of
the executives of the country's prin-
cipal railroads, on grounds Of patriot
ism. to accept his plan for averting the
threatened disaster OF a nationwide
strike.
The President reinforced his previous
argument for his plan by pointing out
TO the railroad executives that the rail-
roads play an important part in the
military preparedness of the country
and that as they are a vital part of
the industrial framework of the nation
it was absolutely necessary to keep
them running at the present time.
Not Blamed for Fighting.
Mr. Wilson told the railroad execu-
tiyes he did not blame them for fight
ing for the principle of arbitration, but
that he believed under present circum-
stances they should accept the eight
hour day and leave the working out
of the principle of arbitration until
later.
The railroad executives did not enter
into an agreement with the President.
but afterward said they were deeply
Impressed and would give full weight
to his argument at their conferences.
The President declared he agreed
with them in believing in arbitration
ia1 mi m viz
Of the refusal of the railroad employees
TO accept arbitration. it was impractical
to discuss the issue at present. He
urged the railroad executives and their
managers in their meetings to con-
slider the disaster which would follow a
strike.
Would Be Catastrophe.

CASE Of THE OWEGO
IS BEING INVESTIGATED
German Naval Authorities in Reply
to q. S. Note Deny knowledge
of Steamer Fired On.

BERLIN, August 10, via London, Au-
gust %, 11:75 pm. (delayed)
ing the American note in the case of
the steamer owego, said to have been
fred upon by a submarine. the state
ment was made this morning that the
German naval authorities have re-
ceived no information of any sort in
this connection, the American note be-
ing the first intimation here concern
ing tho matter.
Efforts are being made by tho au-
thorities, 1t was said, to clear up the
case.
Secrecy Surrounds Case.
The case of the steamer Owego is
surrounded at the State Department
with much secrecy and the foregoing
Berlin dispatch was the first disclosure
that a note had been dispatched to the
German government.
The Owego. having some Americans
on board. reported having been fired
upon ten times in the Mediterranean by
. submarine early in the month. She
proceeded to port. and 1t was not made
plain whether she had been fired upon
without warning or made an attempt to
escape.
Secretary Lansing at the time an
nounced that he was investigating the
case Of ship bearing Americans being
attacked. but he declined to give the
steamers name or any of the details.
The inquiry was begun at the time a re-
sumption of submarine warfare was
being suggested by the new operations
Of submersibles.
The fact that the German government
appears to have no information lends
strength to a contention that the sub
marine may have been Austrian
