EHlUIUNT,TnN

w hoHINuloN, ~. t.,
March f7.-President Will
son believed today there will
be no railroad strike tonight.
On the contrary, he thought
that the mediators he sent poste
haste to New York yesterday after
noon would prevail upon both
sides of the impending rail trou-
BILE to adjust their differences
peaceably.
This conference did not lull him
into inaction. He is studying
means of action to prevent rail-
road and business paralysis with
its consequent sufferings for thou
sands and thousands of citizens.
Legal presidents, presented by
his advisors, have been carefully
studied and it was the White
House impression that the presi-
dent would be enabled to take
strong steps to check the strike.
Whether he would be able to
put the roads under full martial
law was uncertain, though the
presidents showed he has power
to do that in event of any violence
on the lines.
In any event, his friends said,
the president does not propose to
let any railroad strike drag along
into bitter warfare with attend
ant high food prices, shortage of
supplies and general Gripping of
business.
Aside from the probability that
the presidents mediators may
draw a satisfactory settlement in
New York there is the possibility
that the supreme court will hand
down its Adamson law decision
Monday.

tiles OF TEUToN AGENTS LED

Washington, d. c., Sept. lire
ported activities of German agents
here and in neutral countries to OBJ
tain possession of American gold, it
was learned today were largely re
sponsible for the recent proclamation
placing gold on the list of commodi-
ties requiring export license.
With an enormously inflated paper
currency and with gold reserve that
has been dwindlng steadily since the
war began, the demand Of the Ger
man government for gold has reached
proportions where, according to re-
ports received here. unheard Of meth.
DDS apparently have been adopted "a
repienish the store.
One report reaching officials here
is that German submarines were in.
structed to remove gold from steam
ers transporting the precious metal
from the United States to neutral
European countries, torpedo the YES
sells and bring back the gold to their
bases. How far this alleged program
has been carried out, if at all, is not
known.
A plan for obtaining part of the
huge store of gold. which has accum-
ulated here since the war began, said
by German agents, is the expectation
of gold to neutrals ostensibly to set
tie commercial transactions, but in
realty to establish credit to German
firms onerating in neutral countries.
Officials have been unable to verify
the accuracy of numerous reports Of
this nature, but the activity in gold
expectations to neutrals for some
months past aroused the concern of
treasury officials prior to the Presi-
dents proclamation. There is little
doubt in official circles that Germany
has been fully advised, in many in
stances, Of the expectation Of gold

the Berlin foreign Office has been ad-
vised of the saiIings and destinations

ed in possession of exact information

DAVIDSON DISCUSSES
INJUNCTION SUIT

H. F. Davidson, manager and chief
owner of the Hood River Orchards
Company, plaintiff in lawsuit against
the Apple Growers Association, re-
turned Monday night from New York
city, where for the last two years he
has operated an Office for handling the
eastern and export business of num-
ber of Northwestern apple districts,
including that of the Association. The
suit brought by Mr.. Davidson's distrib-
uting concern asks for an accounting
of the business of the Association and
the distribution of an $50, 900 surplus
fund. 1t is asked that the cooperative
sales agency be restrained from using
any portion of the fund in purchasing
the storage property of the Hood River
Apple Growers Union.
In an answer to the plaintiffs COM
plant, it is alleged that Mr.. Davidson
has instigated the litigation for the
purpose of harrassing the cooperative
sales agency and obtaining control of
valley storage plants for his own ends.
This the fruit man emphatically denies.
1--WE simply brought the suit as a
matter of business, in order that we
might recover money that we believe
is due us, since our tonnage earned it.
There is no question in my mind but
that we are entitled to our proportion
of the surplus fund, based on tonnage,
according to the bylaws of the Associ-
alton. | corresponded at length with
A. W. Stone, manager of the ssocia-
tion, and made every endeavor to settle
the matter out of court. | regret very
much that litigation has been neces-
sary. AS far as harrassing the sales
agency is concerned, or endeavoring to
get control of its business, such con-
temptations have been foreign to our
mind. !"
Replying to the charge made in the
Association S answer to the Hood River
Orchard Company's complaint relative
to the statement that Mr.. Davidson
has violated contract in organizing
the Hood River Fruit Co. for the sale
of local products, Mr.. Davidson says
"Such a contract was in existence

SMOKE AND WATER
DAMAGE Big STOCKS

But for the efficient and speedy work
of the Hood River Volunteer fire de-
partment, Hood River would no doubt
have sustained serious loss Saturday
night, when fire was discovered in
the basement of the F. A. Cram dry
goods store. The Cram store had just
been closed up. W. F. Laraway, whose
adjoining stock of jewelry was badly
damaged by smoke and flames that
were drawn into the store room by the
draft coming up registers of the heat
ing system, discovered the presence of
the fire at TO- 10 o'clock, while he was
getting out some rush work. Within a
very few minutes the firemen were at
work. Because of the dense smoke of
the fire, which originated in the back
part of the Cream store near the fur
mace, the fighting of the flames was
made exceedingly difficult.
The damage to the two big stocks is
estimated at several thousand dollars.
Both stocks are insured.
