Question Of Strike
Will Not Be Considered
Says Trainmen's Leader

Chicago, Jan. 1.-THE question of
whether general strike by railway
trainmen will be called in case the su-
preme court declares the Adamson law
unconstitutional and the railroads re-
fuse to, meet the demands of the un-
ions, will not be considered at the con-
ference of railway brotherhoods, in ses-
sion here today.
" All this talk of strike is poppy
cock, " w. G. Lee, president of the
trainmen, said. "Of course, the news
papers can persist in printing it, but
it will only react against us"
The purpose of the conference here
is to review what has already happened,
rather than to plan what to do in case
adverse conditions arise in the future,
Lee said

That Further Inquiry Is
Useless
BY ]. P. Yoder.


Omitted Press staff correspondent
Washington, Jan. l1.-Investigation
of the lead to Wall street OF advance
information regarding President vii.
son s note to belligerents, came to an
abrupt end today.
The house rules committee defeated
the second Wood Iesolution providing
for a probe of Thomas w. Lawson Is
charges and refused to take up his first
resolution for general probe.
BY strict party vote the Campbell
(republican) resolution for an investiga-
tion by select committee was defeat
ed.
Thomas w. Lawson was purged of
contempt by the committees action.
Democrats voted adversely on every
proposition to investigate the leak.
1t was understood the resolution
would be taken up in the house at 2
o clock.
Republican members, meanwhile, de-
bated whether they would make a min
ority report.

mittee decided to hold public meeting
to hear G. w. Barrot, head Of the Wall

Service, before taking action on the
note leak resolution or the Lawson con-
tempt motion.
Secretary Lansing's statement that
a note would be issued at p. m. might
as we'll not have been given" Riley
said, referring to statement carried
by the Dow Jones Ticker that a "peace
manifesto would be issued" "
Riley held the dispatch carried by
the ticker operated by the Journal at
2:O5 the day of the Lansing conf
Dental statement to newspaper men
did not come from Wall Street Journal
representatives in Washington.
The dispatch prepared the street, he
said, for the shock and really helped to
strengthen the market by permitting
brokers to get their accounts in shape
for a break.
eff there had been no warning" he
said, ga panic might have followed
There was some selling on the goth, the
day the note tip was given. If all the

Washington, Jan. I.-Couched in
what officials hint is "clear, strong
language, the allied reply to Presi-
dent Wilson s note to belligerents
reached here today, with an unmistak.
able definition of exactly what the al
lies are fighting for.
Insofar as officials would reveal,
the message places the burden of re-
sponsibiliay upon Germany in the mat
ter OF giving her peace terms. Inas-
much as she left the way open for
further peace negotiations.
One official indicated to the United
Press that there was not complete
throwdown of President Wilson IS note.
This strengthens the view that the
peace door is still ajar, though official
discussion and information was so lin
ited that a complete Interpretation of
the governments s feelings towards the
message could not be obtained.
Official indications at the state de-
partment this afternoon were that the
entente answer will be forwarded TO
Germany and the recent German ans
wer will be sent to the entente pow
ers.
Secretary Lansing will have Presi-
dent Wilson as his guest at an official
dinner tonight, but he had no appoint
ment up to late this afternoon to dis
cuss the answer.

No Action Taken and It Is
Understood the Official
Will Be Asked to Con-

Made Good Record.

Or. D'Orr POINTER. medical superin-
tendent Of the Blackfoot asylum, has
placed his resignation in the hands OF
the boar dof trustees. It has not been
accepted and probably will not be. The
resignation was made because Of GER
tain domestic troubles OF the medical
superintendent. The attitude of the
governor and members Of the board
seems to be that troubles Of that ma
ture should not necessarily disqualify
him as head Of the south Idaho asylum.
It 10 said his services as superintend-
ent are valued and the board desires
him to remain as the institution head.
BOARD TAKES NO ACTION.
The board was in session at Black
foot last week. 1t adjourned to come
to Boise and met with the governor
yesterday. The POINTER resignation was
taken up and discussed at that time.
No action was taken by the board.
While the resignation was in the hands
OF the board 1t was not acted upon.
Members Of the board present were:
George H. Fisher of Bancroft, s. Z.
Reece of Blackfoot and l.. E. Dilling-
ham Of Mackay. Since taking charge
of the Blackfoot asylum this board has
made big saving to the taxpayers of
the state in the maintenance and part
of the credit is said to be due to the
management under Superintendent
Poynter.

Buenos Aires delegates wanted to
guard against this and got the measure
passed
As a matter of fact, ignoring the law.
the late President Roca once passed a

suburb of Tigre, and ex- president de la
Plaza, who proceeded President Irigoy-
