DAYS ARE BECOMING
 PERCEPTIBLY LONGER

With the lengthcning Of the days d misunderstanding seems to prevail that daylight means sunshine. On the contrary the number Of hours of sunshine is much shorter than the h-urs of daylight.
 The table giving the amo.lt ot sunshine in CordOya at various times of the year is as follows:
 January &l-G hours, 45 minutes,
 February IL S hours, IS minutes.
 March l-9 hours. minutes
 March 21-l2 hours.
 April 15-1i hours. 2S minutes
 April 25-15 hours. 43 minutes
 May 11-l7 hours, 43 minutes.
 June 2l-21 hours, Fl minutes
 The foregoing means the amount of sunlight each day or the time from sunrise to sunset. and not the amount of daylight
 For future reference it would be well to cut out the table and paste 1t in some convenient place for re- ference.

STRIKE LEADERS MEET
BROTHERHOOD MEN
sympathetic Strike May Be
Discussed Later.

WASHINGTON, Oct. "A conference
between leaders of the steel strike and
representatives of three railroad brother
hoods was held here tonight Partlci-
pants said that the question Of coopera-
ton by the brotherhoods by sympa-
thetic strike or refusing to carry ore or
steel products was not discussed, al
though 1t might come up probably at a
later meeting. Cases in which members
of the railroad unions become involved
In the strike were considered 1t was
said, and the brotherhood representa-
tives agreed to take up the matter with
its membership
John Fitzpatrick, chairman of the or
ganizing committee In the steel industry
William y. Foster, secretary; William
Harmon, representative of the Interna-
tional Association of Machinists, and
David Davis. assistant president of the
Amalgamated Association, were present
as were II. e. Wills of the locomotive
engineers, p, J, Mcnamara, vice-presi-
dent Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire.
men and Enginemen, and w. N. Doak
vice-president Brotherhood of Railway
trainmen.
Mr.. Wills said the only way the rail-
road organizations could take action
would be for complaints to originate with
locals and then be referred for vote. He
said It was contrary to the long estab-
lished policy of the brotherhood to go
out on sympathetic strikes.

'~rhe preaching of anarchy, sedition.
the destruction of property, the ruin of
homes is certainly vicious doctrine"
replied Judge Gary. And II Is unde-
1irable to call the preacher of such
doctrine before a committee such as this
to discuss any subject"
'On the floor Of the Senate the other
day your own views, Judge Gary, were
criticised in a speech by Senator Borah.
In which he quoted an address of yours
as suggesting that the doctrines or
Washington and Jefferson had gone out
Of fashion" suggested Senator Kenyon.

that you had expressed the opinion that

Foster knocked at the door of your in
dustry and announced that he had a

Washington"
Senator. you may regard that as
fair illustration even in Senatorial de-
bate" replied Judge Gary tartly. What
I said was that was inclined to believe
that large proportion OF people nova
days thought that the doctrines of Wash
ngton had become questionable, be-
cause we had become involved in foreign
entanglements and were trying to get
ourselves untansied. And let me say
right here about this matter"
please don't make a League of Ma
lions speech now, Judge Gary" sug-
gested Senator Kenyon with tone of
appeal But Judge Gary went right on.

Nevertheless. there are times when
you can't do It," replied Judge Gary.

other mills are getting ready to start
when the Carnegie plant resumes.
To all appearances the backbone of
the strike has been broken in the Ma
honing Valley though 1t may be months
before schedules reach normal Thou-
sands of foreigners have left the Ma
honing and Shenango valleys, going east

cripple the labor supply.

1000 MORE MEN GO
BACK AT GARY MILLS
Union Officers Say Return
ing Workers Are Unskilled.

pVtCtUt DtopUftfe ~ NhN 49,
CHICAGO. Oct. 1.-THE steel strike in
this district was broken to-day, company
officers believe, when more than 1000
men returned for duty in the Gary mills,
bringing the total of non-union men to
almost 5000. Union officers admitted
that many unslilled workers had gone
back to the mills, but denied that 1000
men had deserted the strikers. Inc
skilled men, they said, are standing pat.
South Chicago is the only mill town
in this district where the ranks of the
strikers have not been denied. The civil
authorities are concentrating their main
efforts to protecting the workers there.
Chief of Police Clarity announced that
300 ex-soldiers go on duty in that dis
trict.
From all other mill towns came re-
ports that favored the companies The
American Steel and Wire Company in
Waukegan started Its rolling mills for

employees are at work.

Hard to Get Fosters Book.

This is the first time my attention has
been called to it," said Judge Gary.
"Individuals may have circulated 1t but
I have no information. ! understand 1t
is getting to be very difficult to ge,
copies of that book"
At this point Mr.. Lindabury, Judge
Gary's counsel. interrupted with the re-
mark that he had shown his copy OF the
book to a good many people and asked
them what they thought of it.
81 think even that ought not to be
done" declared Senator Mcclellan.
mo, / would not care to have It done
either" said Judge Gary II would not
give the encouragement to even Aotic-
ing it."
Resumins briefly the testimony he had
given to the committee Judge Gary said ::
During the war we raised wages
repeatedly because prices were high and
profits were high with them. We were
disposed to divide the prosperity with
the men. Those who earned the lower
grades of wages got the largest pro-
portionate increases. OF course we con-
sidered the increase in cost of living and
II was our intention that the advances in
wages should more than keep pace. As
recollect we increased wages eight
times during the war. every time volun-
tarily."
During the present strike have there
been any places where peace and order
have not been maintained by the local
authorities, so far as you known asked
Senator Walsh.

Not Asking Government Aid.

Judge Gary replied by saying he had
received a telegram from Steubenville.
Ohio, where the striking workers had
met to discuss whether they would re-
turn to work. They all wanted to go
back, but crowd of men from the
neighboring town Of Mingo marched
over to Steubenville and broke up their
meeting. Generally, however, he said
the local authorities were providing
satisfactory protection and the company

that Is the case II IL a great misfortune
to England. England is now doing the
things 1t is compelled to do. Adoption
of such legislation would mean the

1t would involve Increased costs and

II this matter that is before your COM

very great influence on strikes in the
future"
"Do you mean that It will prevent

Kenyon.
"It would have strong influence
toward preventing them when they are
instig,ted by bad motives. To encour-
age this would be to play into the hands
of vicious elements which do not de-
serve the support and encouragement OF

Gary.
