After Study Of Months.

While the big gathering of railway
employees was preparing to vote at
the Bijou theatre Eyes" or mo" on
the presidents plan, the railway pres
idents were comforting with their
managers.
It was considered likely the presi-
dent would tell them that his propo-
sition is submitted after deep study
of both sides Of the questions made
for more than month as the threat
ened strike began coming to head.
He was expected to reiterate that he
believes the eight hour day can be
successfully applied to railroad oper-
alton without prohibitive additional
cost and with resultant letter work
and working conditions.
New Scenes In History.
What will be the next step should
the president fail to gain agreement
of the presidents to his proposition,
was not disclosed early today. ORA
matte events have followed rapidly
during the course Of negotiations in
the last two days. Never in the
history OF American labor has . pres
ident had about him in one day such
representatives OF industry attempt
ing to solve such crisis.
The gathering Of railway presi-
dents OF itself is the biggest of its
kind ever held. Never for any pur-
pose of their own did SO many Of
them assemble.
The president was up at an early
hour and in his study preparing the
appeal he will make to the railway
presidents today in conjunction with
the proposition he will offer for set
Element.
He called off the regular cabinet
meeting in order to give his full at
tention to this.
About the hotel where the railway
presidents and managers are stopping
there was an atmosphere of serious
ness throughout the morning. Elisha
Lee, spokesman for the managers,
went to breakfast at 9 o'clock. He
would say nothing about the situa.
ton.
Il have not had breakfast yet,
Is the full text of an interview with
him.
During the day the president pre-
pared a statement for the people OF
the country, outlining in detail the
course he has pursued in attempting
to bring about a settlement of the
threatened strike. He planned to
make this public after he has con-
ferred with the railway presidents
this afternoon. When he has received
the answer from both sides to his
proposition he will make public the
result of his effort with a discussion
of it.

b:ies. Only few Of them walked
After a morning session with the
managers in which the presidents
proposals for recognition of the
eight hour day were fully discussed,
the railway presidents went to the
white house in mood not at all
friendly to this plan of settlement.
The $40 representatives of the 40O,-
900 railway employees completed their
secret ballot on the presidents plan
at LA this afternoon. Formal an
nouncement of the result was with.
held until 2:3O, but the tellers limited
that the men had accepted the plan.
Before the balloting began. presi-
dents of the four railway brother
hoods sent to the white house re-
ques. that President Wilson modify
his plan Of settlement to provide
some means Of enforcing the eight
hour scheme. No reply had been re
ceived when the balloting began and
tie vote was on the presidents orig.
izaal proposals.
Holden 10 Spokesman.
Hale Holden, president OF the Bur.
lington was spokesman for the presi-
dents who appeared before the presi-
dent this afternoon. He was chosen
because he is lawyer and an effec-
tive speaker. The fact that he is
from the west and was therefore re-
garded as immune from Wall street
Influence, also entered into the
choice.
The railway presidents seemed set
in their determination not to concede
the eight hour day and allow the
question of overtime to be investi-
gated. The attitude of the majority
of the presidents was that the whole
question should be arbitrated.
