While railroad traffic on the coast land as far east as Yuma was demoraliZed by strikes, the special bearing the defendants in the deportation" cases to Justice w. c. Jacks court in Douglas kept to its schedule as if 1t had been a regu- lar in service for wars. The train will continue to make the trip each week day, until the preliminary hear, ings of the nearly 200 men included in the blanket 'kidnaping'' indict- ment have been concluded.

 AGAIN HELD UP
 BY THE SENATE

 Hearings on Its Provisions Which Will Last Two Weeks

Democratic mem bers, however, who said there had been an understanding that the com mittee would complete its report to the senate this week, charged again that the treaty was neediessly held up by the committee majority.
 It was generally agreed that if the plan was carried out the treaty prob ably would not come out of, commit tee for two weeks.
 Late today President Wilson drove to the capitol and conferred about a half hour with Senator Swanson of Virginia, Democratic member of the committee, and it was assumed they discussed the committee situation and the new turn of events.

WILSON ASKS

Should Wait Until Normal Economic Status Restored, Is Plea to Railroad Shopmen;
 To Be Federal Labor Policy

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-Postpone- ment of the settlement Of wage de- mands until normal economic condi- tions are restored was announced to- day by President Wilson as the policy which the administration will pursue in dealing with such questions, par ticularly those affecting railroad workers.
 The president announced also that if was neither wise nor feasible at this time, when the most important question before the country is re- turn to a normal price level, to at tempt to increase freight rates to provide funds for higher wages.
 eve ought to postpone questions or this sort until we have the opportu- nity for certain calculation as to the relation between wages and the cost of living" the president declared in Q statement to the public explaining his decisions as to wages. "lt IS the duty of every citizen to insist upon A truce in such contests until lntel- ligent settlements can be made, ana made bv peace and effective common counsels. I appeal to my fellow citl- zens of every employment to cooper ate in insisting upon and maintaining such a truce"
 MT. Wilson's statement was issued in connection with the decision ot himself and Director Hines on de mands by railroad shopmen for 70 per cent advance in wages, but the general policy pronounced covers also the wage demands of other hundreds of thousands of railroad workers, which are pending before the director general or about to be presented. It is to be expected4t that other unions trying to obtain more pay will be asked, as the shopmen, to play their part with other citizens in reducing the cost of living by foregoing tenn porary advantage which would add to transportation costs.
 The decision of the president and the director general was announced to a committee of one hundred, rep resenting the shopmen. Tn reply to their demands for a 25 per cent in- crease, the shopmen were asked to accept an adjustment of their pay to the basis of ten hours pay for eight hours work, which they contended was given other employees and denied them when the Atkinson law bcame effective This means an advance of the basic pay from 6S cents to 72 cents an hour, whereas an increase of r cents to S5 cents an hour was demanded.
 Acting President Jewell of the rail- way employees department of the American Federation of Labor and his advisers said they would communi- cate the decision to the union locals for acceptance or rejection. A strike vote completed yesterday, but not yet was on the question wheth- CT the men should quit work to en- force consideration of their demands by the railroad administration instead of by congressional commission as first suggested. AS this plan was the vote, whatever the re- suit, is non-effective and the shopmen now have an entirely new question before them.

 Tomorrow the troops will resume their patrol duties, protecting the American border communities from marauding Hands from south of the Rio Grande.
 It will be an alert border guard on duty from now on, especially in view of reports today thht the Mexican incursion had aroused the natives of Northern Mexico who have been more or less friendly with the outlaws.
 The official reports of the expedi- tion show the remarkable accom- plishment of the cavalry, some of wohm marched seventy-five miles yesterday on their return from below the border. "I am feeling a just pride in the men, and officers of my comn(aD6 who made the campaign, '' Colonel Langhorne said tonight.
 Major Lucian Nicholson, unable to lePve for the border with his troops a week ago yestbrday, had his mount and the mount of his orderly trans. ported by, motor truck so he could catch up with his men. His white mount was painted with perman' ganate of potassium to give it a deep purple color and lower visitibility.
 An important part was played by the aviators who kept up liaison with the troops, searched the noun tain sides and carried supplies, To eating at least one band of bandits The aviators hlso are given credit for the killing of Jesus Henteria with machine gun bullets.
