eight-hour basic day as the basis for
fixing wages. This they obtained IN
the Adamson law. now under appeal
before the Supreme Court. Under this
law, If sustained by the Supreme Court
they will be granted overtime for
overtime work. Under, the new
Adamson bill they would be held
down to eight-hour wages for an
eight-hour day and would be prohib
tied from earning overtime pay, un
less given specific authority to work
longer hours by the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
Adamson Presents Program.
Another step in the Administra-
tons railroad legislation program
was taken in the House late yester-
day when Chairman Adamson, OF the
House Committee on Interstate and
Foreign Commerce, introduced. in
slightly amended form the bills now
pending in the Senate supplemental
to the eiEht.hour law.
Chairman Adamson adds a new sec
ton, which gives the Interstate Com
merce Commission authority to de-
termine allowances and tolerances"
for overtime in case of controversy
between railroads and their employees.
Mr.. Adamson explained that this
section is partly designed to prevent
railroads paying unnecessary over
time" which the author of the pres
emit eight-hour law AYERS has been
paid by some carriers in fighting the
law, and in support of the carriers
contention that the eight-hour law is
a wage law"
EmbOdies NewIands Bills.
The Adamson bill embodies the pro-
visions of the Newlands bills, now
pending in the upper chamber, and
carries out In one measure the Ad-
ministration program for supplement
tai legislation. The Senate probably
will take up first the railroad Iegis-
Iation program desired by the Presi-
dent.
Provides Board of Inquiry.
The Adamson bill retains the New
lands provisions. for an investigation
by a special board of inquiry-fol-
lowing the failure of the board of
mediation and conciliation-of con-
troversy between railroads and en-
ployes and stipulation that there
shall be no strike within the period
Of investigation.
In introducing a House bill, Chair
man Adamson is understood to have
been sctuated in part by a desire that
the railroad legislation question
should be referred to the Committee
on Interstate and Foreign Commerce,
and no other, end the new section Is
SO worded as to retain Jurisdiction in
that committee.
my bill is the same as proposed
legislation now pending in the Senate,
except that have added this section
and have combined the Newlands
bills, which are known as Admins
tration bills, in one measure"

NEW CLASSES OPEN
AT WILSON NORMAL
Second Term at Community
Center School to Begin
Monday Night.

Z What corresponds to the second
term Of the year In the public schools
Is to begin at the Wilson Normal Com
munity Center School tomorrow night
Although all classes are arranged
at the school so that a. student may
enter at any time, the term is about
one-half over There are to be no pro-
motions. An increased enrolment is
expected Monday night.

other class in sewing, the demand
having filled one class to its capacity.
| The new class is to begin at 7:30
/ Wednesday. All those contemplating
entering the class are requested to
bring material and pattern that no
time may be lost. Every style Of

pies will be detailed. The class has
branched out until it now embraces
every style of cooking.
Another new class to open tomorrow
will be that of violin instruction. AL
ready one class has been closed, and a
number are enrolled in the one to be
started at 1910 Wednesday.
Such interest is evinced In the
playing ~ the violin that classes
probably will be formed among the
school children of the third division
after school hours. Many children
have requested the class since they
are not generally admitted to the
Community Center School.
Community Music Class.
1t is probable the classes will be
started in all of the school divisions,
provided a suitable teacher can be
procured.
The main attraction at the Wilson
School for the unsteady inclined, is
the community music classes. DR..
HamIin E. Cogswell, director of music
in the public schools. Is in charge.
He has asked all who are not able to
read music as fluently as English to

M. StaTks. general manager of the Louisville and Ma shvil1e.
 In his statement, which summarizes the findings of a board of inquiry made up of railroad officials. he says: 'NThe first negligence was the failure of the f1agman and conductor of the train ahead ito protect the rear Of their train while it was standing on the main line at and near Shepherds vile, and in failing to protect it while not making schedule time before reaching ShepherdSvilie."
 The engineer of the fast train which gence in that ''ne failed to have his train under control as he approached She epherdsville. so that if need be he could stop before passing the station Instead of this, though he did not get the signal; to proceed. he continued at such 8 rate of speed he not only pass ed the station but ran 1, 200 feet -be- yond.''

BOLSREVIKi COURT FINDS
 COUNTESS PAWN GUILTY
Of MisapproPriation of Public Funds
 Members of kerens<y Cabinet.

Petrograd, Dec. 24.@Countess Panin who was minister of public instruction in the Kerenslzy cabinet. was on trial today, charged with misappropriation of public funds. Hers was the first case tried by E'the popular Revolution ary tribunal" The countess was con victed and sentenced to Imprisonment until the return of the money, and to public censure.'
 The small courtroom in the palace of Grand Duke Nicholas was filled with friends and sympathizers of the countess. The judges, five working men and two soldiers, were all elected members of the Petrograd workmen' s and soldiers deputies.
 | The president of the Boishevfki court speak to the prosecution ?" he asked. ' read the indictment. SWho wishes to r. No replied. The president then in vited statement for the defense. An elderly man, a, former empioye at the ministry of public instruction, arose and spoke of the great philanthropic and educational activity of Countess Panin. He denied the misuse of funds and said that the. countess had refused to acknowledge the right of the pres ent government to demand the money. He declared that she would return the funds to the Constituent Assembly, which was the sole authority over her.
 Next a. young workingman. speaking for the prosecution, made a clumsy and heated speech to the effect that no D1llty ana euucallonaa acuV1ty neeu not cloud the fact that the countess took public funds and opposed the au- thority of the workmen's and soldiers government He exhorted the judges to- disregard the personality and past of the defendant.
 In her Hast word" the countess said As has been stated; I have not mis- uesd the funds. I consider myself re- sponsible for their safety and will de- liver them to the Constituent Assemb- fy to which alone must account for my actions. Since the convening of the Constituent Assembly has been post poned, the money has been deposited in the state bank until it assemblies.
 The so-called misappropriation o1 public funds consisted in the transfer by the countess of all the ministry funds to the state bank which left the safes empty when the Bolsheviki took control She denied their right to the money
