TOLD NOT TO STRIKE
Were Informed That the Railroad Ad-
ministration Had Consented to En-
ter Into National Agreement
with the Unions.

Washington, d. c., July 3l.-Repre-
sentatives of the six railroad shops who
are in conference here with railroad ad-
ministration officials, telegraphed to shop
employees over the country to-day not to
strike pending final settlement of their
demands. The workmen were informed
that the railroad administration had con-
sented to enter into a national agree
ment with the unions covering rules and
working conditions,
The committee represented 100000
men. Two broad subjects were up for
consideration--crea of "a national
agreement and very substantial in
crease in wages to meet increased living
costs, which the committee said had
caused serious state of unrest among
the shopmen.
Owe are now officially assured by the
director general that the railroad admin
istration will sign national agreement,
said the telegram to the shopmen. "An
earnest effort is now being made by the
director general to give us definite in
formation at earliest possible moment as
to position of railroad administration
regarding wage matters.
"The successful termination of our
efforts depends upon the united support
of all men involved. There must be no
stoppage of work during these negotia-
tions."

UNITED STATES NAY
RECEIVE INDEMNITY
Bernard M. Baruch, Economic Adviser to
American Peace Delegation, De-
clares the Matter Is Not Set
tied Despite Pres. Will
sons Opinion.

Washington, D. c., July 3l.-Bernard
M. Baruch, economic advisor to the
American peace delegation, told the SEN
ate foreign relations committee to-day
that he thought the question whether
the United States should receive part
of the indemnity to be paid by Germany
still was an open one.
Senator Knox, Republican, Pennsyl-
vsnia, said he understood from the pres,
ident's message to the Senate in sub
mitting the peace treaty that the Unit
ed States was to have no part of the in
demnity, but Mr.. Baruch replied that he
thought this was only the presidents
opinion and did not represent definite
decision.
Asked by Senator Knox whether the
president expected to reach decision on
the matter without consulting Congress,
Mr. Baruch said he did not know.
The English text of the treaty says
the division of indemnity shall be 'in
proportions which have been deter
mined" but Mr.. Baruch pointed out that
the French text more properly should be
translated shall be determined" In this
Chairman Lodge agreed.

Pres. Wilson Is Pondering
and Branches Of Govern
ment Are at Work
SEEKING A SOLUTION
OF GREAT PROBLEM
Locomotive Engineers Now
Threaten a New Demand
for Increased Pay

Washington, d. G., July 3l.-President
Wilson is giving deep and very thought
full consideration to the high cost of liv-
ing, it was announced to-day at the
White House, and all branches of the

attempt to reduce the high cost of liv-
ing were taken to-day with the inaugu-
ration of plan for the sale of Sl25,-
100000 worth of army food stocks di-
rect to the people with every post
master and mail carrier over the country
acting as salesman.
Distribution of the surplus food in this
manner was requested by the House Of
Representatives and details were worked
out at conferences between Secretary
Baker, Postmaster General Burleson and
Representative Kelly of Pennsylvania,
author of the House resolution.
While this program was being put into
effect, President Wilson had before him
statement from the Brotherhood of Lo-
comotiye Engineers, which declared that
"conscienceless profteering by the great
interests who have secured control of all
the necessities of life," had brought
about such conditions that the engineers
felt they must demand increased wages
unless living expenses speedily were re-
duced.
At the department Of justice investi-
cations into causes of increased living
costs were under way, with particular
attention being given to the question
of whether producers or dealers had com
bined in violation Of law TO raise prices
Of necessities.
Meantime there was pending in the

Vienna, July 30 (via Berne) The

Austrian governmental affairs have re-

The peace terms presented by the al

being considered as particularly oner-
Gus and predictions being made that
Austria was likely to be driven into
bankruptcy.
Last week DIR. Otto Bauer the foreign
minister, resigned his post, largely, it
was said, because of dissatisfaction at
his failure to obtain important advan-
tages for Austria in the negotiations
leading up to the formulation of the
peace treaty. Chancellor Renner, how
ever, filled the gap caused by DIR. Bauer's
resignation by taking over the duties
of the foreign office himself in addition

PITCHER CARL MAYS,
JUST SOLD FOR S55,000,
HAS BEEN SUSPENDED
Pres. Ban Johnson of American League
Announced That the Action Was
Taken Because Mays Desert
ed Boston Club In Chicago.

Chicago, Ill.,, July 3l.--Carl Mays, the
Boston pitcher who was traded yester-
day by the Boston Americans to the
New York Yankees, has been suspended
indefinitely by B. B. johnson, president
of the American league The suspension
is the result of the desertion of the Bos-
ton club by Mays in Chicago July l3.
Mays had a contract with the Boston
club, and when he left the club he broke
this contract, Mr.. johnson declared.
The deal which was consummated in
New York yesterday is not approved by
Mr. johnson, who said he was surprised
to think that any club owner would be
dickering for player who acted as Mays
did.
Baseball cannot tolerate such breach
Of discipline" said Mr.. johnson, in sus-
pending the player. 1T was up to the
owners of the Boston club to suspend
Carl Mays for the breaking of his con-
tract, and when they failed to do so, it
is my duty as head of the American
league TO act. Mays will not play with
any club until the suspension is raised.
He should have reported to the Boston
club before they made any trades or
sale"
Mr.. johnson to-day notified Owner
Frazee of Boston and the owners of the
New York club of the suspension of
Hays.
Boston, July 3l.-The trade by which
Carl Mays, underhand pitcher of the
Boston Americans, was transferred to
the New York Yankees, took rank to-day
among the biggest transactions fnan-
cially in the history of baseball. An Off
cial Of the Red Sox stated that the Bos-
ton club received $4,000 in cash for
Mays, in addition to Pitcher Allan Rus
sell and Robert McGraw, and third
player to be chosen later. An estimate
placed the trading value of the three
players in excess of $4,000. 49o
1t was understood that Derrill Prstt,
second baseman of the New York tysm,
was the most likely choice of the Bps-
ton club. With this choice exercised,
the Red Sox management is expected to
consummate a deal now pending which
has as its object the acquisition by Bos-
ton of Scott Perry, pitcher of the Phila
delphia Athletics. Boston probably will
offer Pratt and another player, With $l5,-
900 for Perry, it is said.
