Settlement Will Be An
nounced as Soon as Gov
ernment's Wage Offer Is
Accepted by the Men.
If No Acceptance Is Re-
ceived Men Will Be Asked
to Return to Work Pend
ing Further Negotiations
for a Final Adjustment.

San Francisco, Sept. 19.--With W. T.
other government representatives pre-
dieting rapid settlement of the strike
which has tied up shipbuilding in the
San Francisco bay district. r. w. Bur
ton, president of the striking Iron
Trades council, sounded a note of
warning today that mere adjustment
of the shipyards controversy would not
settle the strike.
The governments interest, he point
ed out, is based on the fact that the
strike has affected construction of
government ships Adjustment of diff
ferences affecting only the shipyards
men will not end the strike, he declar-
ed, because II would not take into con-
sideration the interests of thousands of
other members of the iron trades coun-
Gil who are on strike but are not en-
gagged in shipbuilding work. These
men number Gully half. the men on
strike, he said.
NEGOTIATIONS PROGRESSING.
Despite this declaration the federal
representatives indicated today that
negotiations toward settlement are
progressing satisfactorily 1t was up
on this statement, Chairman Hulley
based his statement in Washington
that a settlement was in sight.
The conference between government
agents and representatives of both
sides in the controversy was resumed
at 10:30 a. m. and was still in progress
at noon. 1t was understood that J. L.
Ackerson, representing the shipping
board, formally submitted the Mare
Island navy yard wage scale at this
conference as a basis of settlement.
This scale refers only to shipbuilding
trades, however. and does not affect
men employed in industries In no way
allied with shipbuilding. Some fear
this may operate against it's accept
ance.
Chairman Hurley. of the board, ex-
pected to be able to announce settle
ment as soon as the strikers repre-
sentatives accept the government 8
wage offer. If no acceptance is i'm
mediately received, an effort will be
made to have the strikers return 60
work on the basis of pay in effect at
the Mare Island government navy yard.
pending further negotiations for a
final adjustment.
Hurley was undecided early today
regarding his proposed flying visit to
San Francisco, personally to plead
with the $4,000 strikers. Meetings with
Samuel Gompers. the shipping board
and the shipyard wage adjustment
commission as well as further reports
from mediators on the Pacific coast
are desired by Hurley before he de-
/ cides whether the trip Is necessary.

CONFESSION LONG.

Ferguson took up most of the morn
Ing reading the confession of 10000
words. His tale was the most dramatic
ever told in an Iowa court room, ac-
cording to lawyers in the case. He
read the confession in which Kelly
said the voice of God urged him to
'slay utterly" and make sacrifices of
blood to God"
The confession said Kelly insisted
that he killed the Moores and the lit
tie Stillinger girls. According to Fer
guson's notes Kelly wanted to make a
clean breast of the crime so that mo
innocent man would be hanged"
OF uNsoUND MIND.
That Lyn George J. Kelly was OF
unsound mind was the point the de-
fense was trying to impress on the
jury in the Kelly murder trial here
today. Witnesses called to the stand
today told of wild ramblings by the
unordained minister who Is accused OF
crushing out eight lives with an axe
at Villisca in 1912.
The defense also charges that the
alleged confession presented by the
state, IL it was made at all, came after
the minister's mind had been weakened
through grilling by state agents. In
this confession the state says Kelly
admitted Staying Joe Moore, his wife
four Moore children and Ina and Lena
Stillinger, because a voice from God
commanded him to "slay utterly"
Witnesses said that Kelly Imagined
he was a detective when he was taker
through the Moore home about two
weeks after the crime was commit
ted.
Persons close to the trial said today
the fate of Kelly would be in the jur-
ors hands before the end of next week
The prediction came through the
abrupt ending of the states testimony
yesterday afternoon. The defense wit
nesses probably will all be examined
before next Tuesday.
