TO INTRODUCE NEW
DRAFT OF R. R. LAW
New Eight-Hour Law and Strike
Prevention Clauses
Knocked Out.

The House Interstate Commerce
Committee yesterday authorized
Chairman Adamson to redraft and in
troduce his railway bill and promised
favorable recommendation.
Amendments to the bill knock out
the proposed new eight-hour law
and the strike prevention plans.
The bill, amended, will provide that
in case of AN argument between
railroads and employees the President
shall Sdd four members-two railway
workers and two representatives of
owners-to the board of mediation
which shall investigate and report,
with a recommendation, in three
months. This is compromise.
Brotherhood m smbers wanted a COM
mission OF four-two workers and
two company men.
While the bill permits railway
workers to strike, II provides penal
ties for interference with the United
St' es mails and for trespassing by
strikers on railway property. 1t
leaves out a provision authorizing
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to fix wages OF railway employees
and officers. The bill will permit the
President in time of national emerg-
ency to take over the railways
drafting employees into military ser
vice. The President also is empow-
cred to use armed forces-the army
and navy-to prevent obstruction of
roads.

LONDON, Feb. 6.-The American
consul at the port where the survivors
of the British steamer Eavestone
were landed today telegraphed Amer
lean Ambassador Walter Hines Page
q full report of the sinking of that
vessel by a German submarine.

cause for war in the killing of an
American sailor aboard the British

England accepts It as a foregone
conclusion that America will even

mentarily. But in the meantime, re-
tue peculiar SANh-
alton created by the fact that Amer

Germany, and has merely broken re-
lations with her, British officialdom
is taking great care in dealing with
American Ambassador Page to regard
the United States as still being a neu-

No further details OF the Eavestone
sinking were available here today be-

Washington. Feb. 21.-The senate
bone-dry amendment to the postal
bill, prohibiting shipment of liquor in
to states which have prohibition laws
was accepted today by the house 321
to 70. 1t is counted as one of the most
far-reaching prohibition measures in
years, because it will make absolutely
dry states which now permit ship

There was long and heated debate
over the amendment. Representative
Sherley told the house forty per cent
of the whisky manufactured in Ken
lucky was sent into states from
which the Reed amendment would
shut it out Representative Cox of

of Illinois supported Sherley.
Within twenty minutes after the roll
