Railroad Magnates and Employees
Fail to Reach Agreement at
Session Yesterday.
BROTHERHOOD WOULD
WELCOME PRESIDENT
Wilson Discusses Situation Over
Long Distance Phone and May
Still Be Called Upon.

New York, Aug. 12.-Notwithstand-
ing the failure Of mediation to bring
together the representatives of the
railroads of the country and their
100000 employees on the demands for
an eight-hour day and time and a
half for overtime, the threatened
strike that would tie up 225 railroad
systems and throw 100000 railroad
workers out of employment, may be
averted by arbitration. An agree
ment to this effect may be entered
into tomorrow, it was predicted here
tonight.
At the end of day Of confusing
situations and contradictory reports,
the leaders of the four railroad bro
therhoodds and the members Of the
United States Board or Mediation and
Cancellation, which is striving to ef-
feet peaceful settlement at the spe-
cial request of President Wilson,
viewed the situation optimistically.
It has been virtually conceded that
arbitration under the present provi-
sions of the Newlands act would
not be satisfactory to the men, but
an expansion of the board provided
for may be accepted by them with
the proviso that only their present
demands are to be arbitrated. The
railroads have maintained that in the
event of arbitration not only the de-
mands Of their employees, but the
roads contingent proposition"
which is based on the eighthour day,

Ready to Withdraw.
Several times during the days ne
gotiations between the mediators and
the trainmen it seemed as if the men
were on the point of withdrawing
from further parley. When the situ-
alton reached a point where it was re-
ported President Wilson had inter-
vened, A. G. Garretson, president Of

that the president has no more power

President May Still Be Called.
Washington, Aug. 12.-Personal con-
ferences will be sought by President
Wilson with representatives Of the
railroads and their employers, if all
other efforts fail to avert the threaten
ed. strike of the four great railroad
union brotherhoods. He is seriously
considering making a trip to New
York for the purpose.

Offensive Against the

MAUREPAS VILLAGE
IS OCCUPIED
Austro- Germans Forced to Give
Up Entire Stripa
Line.

London, Aug. 12.-French and Rus
sian forces have gained additional
important successes over the armies
of the Central powers in northern
France and Galicia, respectively.
A sustained attack over a front of
three and three-quarters miles by the
French against the German third line
north of the Somme resulted in the
capture of all trenches to depth
from third to two-thirds of mile.
The line of the victorious French ad-
vance extends from Hardecourt to the
Somme river at Buscourt.
Occupy Village.
The village of Maurepas, which has
been the center of much of the Sc
we're fighting was partly occupied by
the French in the same assault. Ger
man prisoners to the number of 1000
and 80 machine guns were captured.
On the eastern front, the Austro-
Germans have been forced to give up
the entire Stripa line from Tarnopol
to Buczacz, which they had held since
last winter. The capture of the
Stripa line by the Russians followed
the taking of several towns in the re-

SUFFRAGE CONFERENCE
COMES TO An END

Colorado Springs, Colo, Aug. 12.-
A three-day conference of the Nation
al Woman's party was concluded here
today and leaders tonigh| t were de-
parting for various points in twelve
suffrage states to carry out campaign
plans outlined at the final session. Act
i've opposition to the Democratic ad-
ministration for failure to pass the
national suffrage amendment was the
chief task assigned to the workers.
National officers instructed the organ
izers and speakers that the election
policy of the party was essentially
one of opposition to Democratic can
didates. Late today the veteran equal
suffrage campaigners we're breaking
in young inexperienced workers at
street meetings. Under Mrs. Thomp-
son, of North Carolina, a number of
women made their debut as public
speakers. For the most part the ad-
dresses were delivered fluently and
with considerable oratorical effect.

ALL GUARDSMEN
ORDERED TO BORDER
That Men in Mobilization Camps
Became Restive Is Reason
for Move.

NEI"s o. 49, - -
Washington, Aug. 12.-A1I the ma
tional guard units included in the
presidents call of June 18 not yet on
the Mexican border were ordered to
the border today by the war depart
ment.
Between 10000 and $4,000 addition.
al troops will thus be added to the
border forces. National guard forces
there will number approximately 1885,
900 and the total of all troops on the
border or in Mexico will be 175,000.
Secretary Baker made a formal an.
nouncement that the troop movement
had nothing whatever to do with the
Mexican situation as such, and was
solely to relieve thousands Of troops
now held in mobilization camps only
because they lack a few recruits to
bring units up to fixed minimum
strength.
Today's orders send the troops from
Kentucky, Ohio and Vermont to the
border as soon as transportation can
be arranged for them and the govern
ment will move all the others as soon
as they are properly equipped.
War department officials decided on
their action because the troops are
restive in camps and there seems to
be no stimulus to recruiting while
there is no prospect of movement to
the border. They now expect most of
the regiments will be filled before the
troops leave.

chased from N. M. Olds of Hazen the
franchise and equipment of the local

The transfer involved a consider

the big truck that William Warwick

show the advantages of the National

He had to unload the ton of con.

he could get the truck again in mo.

Mr.. Warwick declares that there is
no necessity for the condition of the
road in Burleigh county. The basic
material present is good. With a lit.

make, he said, at a nominal cost a
road almost the equal Of cedar blocks.

As soon as word of the wreck was
received here a score of physicians
and nurses were rushed in automo-

trucks, hastily fitted up as ambu-

two hours for treatment. The vic
Tins were loaded into automobiles
and street cars and taken to South
