JEFFERSON LIVlNGsTON's HORSE TRAVELS SIX FURLONGS IN
 t:124-5 ON SLOW TRACK.
Bedtime Stories, the Fast 3-Year-Old From the Bradley Stable, Finishes Close Up Second to the Winner.

Aldcbaran, one of the Jefferson Liv- ineston stars. equalled the track rec ord for the siX.mrlong route. which had been held by Pan Zareta when yesterday afternoon the son of Plsundes-Passan led classy field from barrier 10 wire, and under su- perb handline by Jockey Crump, last ed long enough to win from Bedtime Stories, the Bradley candidate in the same event, which is considered one of the best 3-yearolds on the track.
 The race offered much Of promise. There were six of the seven originally composing the field which elected to go. Aldebaran was considered slgh,- ly the best, though there was not one of the six horses but had some follow ing This race is one that goes to any one entered without a surprise remarked a hOrseman who keeps close tab on the racers. The fayorite from the Livingston barn justified the fa- voritism. but it took some good race to be there in front at the wire. Bed time Stories was fast pursuing. under good handling from l.yke, and umjtu. with McTaggert in the saddle. was third.
 In the first event Minnie F was the best of a very ordinary lot, and won handily from Manoic. 4ith Smuggler third, The event was to give the non- winners of l9lG-l7 chance and na- turally it grouped an indifferent lot of performers. However, it furnished a column of interest

 Kalitan was inc best far and away the best, in the third, and won gallop- ins, just as Haynes would have the verdict. Opheua W was best of the others, and Kitty Cheatham was well up.

only in it's second week and the Ger
 mans still were predicting the de- struction cf a million tons of shipping a month, the amount admitted by Ten-
 tonic experts to be essential for an effective starvation slockade of Eng land. Since then. however. the aver age destruction has been below half
 that.
 Food conditions in Germany when
 Mir. Gerard left were reported as seri- ous, but not necessarily critical This
 question Is looked upon bby the Ameri- can government as very important be-
 cause of it's bearing upon the possi-
 bility of further peace moves by Ger
 many in the near future.
 The former ambassador arrived here from Key West Fla, shortly at-
 ter noon and was met at the station
 by a group of officials, including Counsellor Polk and Assistant Secre. tary Phillips of the state department Secretary McAdoo, Secretary Humility and Senator Hughes of New Jersey Mr. Gerard said he would make his report 10 the government and wou% not talk for publication During the remainder of the day and night he held to this determination. He will go to New York late tomorrow in time for a formal reception to be rendered him there Friday.
 The report made by the former am ha ssador to the state department was understood to deal particularly with the treatment accorded himself and other Americans following the break
 in diplomatic relations the efforts Of the German government to get him to reaffirm the old treaty of 1928 with extensive changes, the general attl' tude of the German government and nublic toward submarine warfare neace and relations with the United states and conditions in Germany.
 The department presented a scene of unusual activity with the many TO- turned diplomats who accompanied Mir. Gerard reporting to their sur~S iCrS. some Ol theh "hl w hNPN inc department and others will be siY- en new posts.
 While officials are extremely anA ious to learn the personal opinion oi
 the men fresh from Germany. there is not the slightest disposition to feel that the international situation can be affected in any way at this time. Ger many is believed to have shown her- self in the series of sinking such as the I.aconia. the California and many others. including the American steam shin Algonquin. reported teday sunk without warning, to be utterly unmihd- fnl of the eountrys rights or It's pos sihle participation in the war

New York, March 1f--An appeal to the patriotism of the members of the four great railroad brotherhoods to refrain from any rash movement which would bring on industrial war fare in the present national crisis was made here tonight by the national conference committee of railways on the eve of the conference tomorrow with the chiefs 'cf the trainmen's or. eaniaztions. There were additional in dications, however, that the brother hoods were determined to call n strike unless their demands were granted
 After a meeting here with several hundred general chairmen and chair men of the locals in the brotherhood organizations on lines entering New York, W. G. Lee, president Of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, an nOunced that unanimous support had been voted the brotherhood chiefs in the demands they intend to make at tomorrow conference These de-

mands, he said would be based on the modified demands of last December, which called for basic eight hom' work day and prorata pay for over time
 This is virtually what the Adamson law would give if put in force he said.
 The original program of the men the refusal of which resulted in the call last September of the strike, which was avertcd by the passage of the Adamson act, included an eight hour basic day with time and a half for overtime
 Mr Lee indicated that there was no intention of going back to the original claims.
 He admitted that recent forecasts of progressive countrywide strike unless the railroads accede to the ulti. matum of their employees, were wri;- ten by good guesser
 Charges that we are atcing in bad faith in bringing up this question again at this time Mthout waiting for the decision of the supreme court on the Adamson act are baseless," he de- clared. We were not parties 10 the agreement entered into betwcen the attorneys for the railroads and Che representatives of the attorney gen erals department to do nothing until the decision is handed down Our position is the same as if there were no Adamson law and no decision pending. Whether the de cision is for or against the law our demands, which we shall present to. morrow. will he unaltered. If the law 1 K upheld, it would give us what we will ask for tomorrow. If it is thrown , out we will still stand pat and take no less than the Adamson law would give us.
 We four brotherhood chiefs ] through these recent meetings with I our men now feel that we have the united backing of our men behind us
 in this. We want 10 get this ques ton of the eht-hour day settled and settled quickly. The reason for our seeming haste at this time in forcing it to an issue is that the country may | be in a war within a few weeks or months and we believe this ought to be settled before that comes" The statement of the national con ference committee signed by it's chair l I f,, ay.ts
 We are sincerely deslrous that the wages and working conditions of our employees should be on the highest | plane consistent with the efficient Ioperation of the railroads When the national wage demands of the four ! train brotherhoods were made last year. we felt that they were beyond reason. entailing as they did an an' nual increase of $100.000,000, or about 8 per cent in the wages of the 500,- GOO most highly paid workers in the country
 "The serious international situation causes every good citizen to put every thought of personal right or desire second to his duty to his country. Surely this is no time for internal in dustrlal warfare The reported short age of food and the generally congest- ed traffic of the country bring force fully to all minds what would happen in the event of stoppage of the rail roads of the country.
 with this situation before us, we feel confident that the patriotism and loyalty of cur men will not counte' nance any rash movement which may seriously embarrass the government and give the impression outside our borders that this country is torn by 1 industrial strife and, therefore, an easy prey to any foreign foe

LITTLE INTEREST
 IN THE ELECTION
5s VOTES CAST AT 800 O'CLOCK
Makes the City Election Tame .itfair-NO school Ticket.

A very moderate display of inter est, coupled with the fact that a goodly number of voters left town this morning to attend court at Cor dova, has made the duties of the judges and clerks of election sine cure today. At 3 o'clock this after noon but 59 votes had been cast. The lack of interest is largely due to the fact that there is but one ticket in the field. that ticket being composed of the present council, which has given universal satisfaction during the past year. AS to the school board, although Mrs. Winans' term expires this month, there was no ticket put up. and under the law Mrs. Winans will automatically succeed herself for another term of three years.

DUKE IS VANISHED
 FOR TELLING TRUTH

LONDON, April-"The Grand Duke Nicholas Michaelovitch," says Times dispatch from Pearograd. twas banished to his estates in De- cember for telling Emperor Nicholas the truth concerning the situation and for denouncing the Rasputin scandal.
 "The Grand Duke relates how he was moved much more during the conversation than the emperor and when, fearing he had gone too far, he said to the emperor: Now call your cossacks, have me killed and buried in your garden The emperor merely smiled and thanked him. A few days later the emperor wrote the grand duke note ordering ana imploring him to retire to his couT- try seat. Before retiring to the coGr- try the grand Gui,,. wrote letter tO the emperor
 The text of the letter is printed by the Times Following are some ex- tracts from it:
 You often told me you could put faith in nobody and that you were being deceived. If this is so, it ap- plies particularly to your wife, who loves you, yet who led you into error. Being surrounded by evil-minded in- inmates. her words are the product of skillful machinations, not of truth. If you are powerless to liberate her from these influences. then, at all events, beware of the intriguers who are using your wife as an instru- ment.
 "Your first impulses are always re- markedly true. but as soon as other influences supervene, you begin to waver."
 A Reuter- dispatch from Petrogratl says:
 "The coffin of the mystic monk, Rasputin, and arch intriguer and worker upon the imperial weaknesses and superstitions. was disinterred at Tzanskoe-Selo yesterday and is lying on truck there pending it's removal elsewhere for burial.
 Patriotic proclamations are still the order of the day from the gov ernment and individual members. All these proclamaticns are of one sense, dealing with the necessity for unre- hitting work and strict discipline if Russia's enemies are to be overcome. Tn your hands," says cabinet manifesto. "lies the fate of national liberty. The enemy is straining to profit by any disorganization of the accumulated great Russian forces on the Russian front. With the edvent of spring he will release his numer- ous fleet and consequently menace the capital. His victory would be victory over free Russia. 4 Prussan victory would deprive the Russians of all their liberty and restore to power the emperor of the enslaved people.
