STRIKE OF RAILROAD
SHOPMEN At AN END
Director Illness Administration
Asked to Take Up Wage
Demands
U. S. OWNERSHIP OPPOSED

Washington, Aug. 1S.-The railroad
administration was notified today that
the strike Of shopmcn was at an end,
and was asked TO take up wage demands
Immediately.
Business sentiment in the United
States is unanimous that government
ownership of railroads must not pre-
vail, Charles A. Post, chairman OF the
railroad committee of the United States
Chamber of Commerce, told the House
interstate commerce committee today.
Sentiment, as shown by tests made by
the chamber, is strongly, even over
vhelmingly. against proposals OF the
kind. he declared. because of the OK
perience with government operation
during the war. Other reasons against
IL. he contended, were heavy costs,
and the necessity thereafter of fnanc-
ing government extensions through con
Sressiopal appropriations with consr-
ouept subjection to political Influence.
The consensus of opinion or the ma
tionnl chamber" Mr.. Post said, lis
that unless the government adopted the
policy of fixing low rates and fares with
the intention that any resulting de-
hcit from operations should be placed
as an increased burden of taxes upon
the general public, rares and fares
would be higher under government than
under private operation
Likewise, the organizations Of rail-
road employees might easily exercise a
controlling influence upon national poll
tics, he said.
Constructive proposals in relation to
the railroad situation, Mr.. Post argued.
called for return of the lines to pri-
vate ownership and management, with
consolidation Of the numerous lines now
existing into a limited number of strong
competing systems. Such groups. he
said. should be built mp by enlarging the
present large systems, and not by com
bining roads on a geographical basis.

military policy for the country.
FL Paso, Tex, Aug. 1S.-Every eff
fort was being made today to expedite
the rescue Of Lieutenants Paul II. Davis
and Harold G. Peterson, aviators Of
the United States army. who are held
for n ransom Of S15,0 900 by Mexican
bandits somewhere in Mexico south of
the Big Bend district Of West Texas.
Cattlcmen attending n cowboy camp
meeting at Fort Davis, Tex, raisei
$4,000 in fifteen minutes Sunday and
placed it at the disposal of the military
authorities.
According to reports the bandit band

''PerdicdriS or Roisuli,"
american attitude in 1904

"Perdicaris alive or Raisuli dead"
was the defiance that thrilled Amer
ica in 1904, when the notorious Nor
rocan bandit had captured that
American and held him for ransom.
The slogan purported to be Roose-
velt's demand upon the Moroccan
government and to have accompanied
the American feet TO Tsngier. Perdi-
cariS went free when the sultan Of
Turkey bowed nbjcctly TO the ban
dts demands for $4,000, the re-
lease of captured members of his
band and the removal Of the governor
of the district.
In two different instances Great
Britain is said to have paid to him
S150,000 and $40, 900 to ransom sub
jects. The Moorish bandit was edu-
Gated for the church and subse-
Quently found robbery more profit

Chinese Position Embarrassing

Concluding detailed story OF the
Shantung negotiations, which he said
came directly from delegates 10 the
conference, Mr.. Millard said:
I'm my opinion if marplot had set
out deliberately to put China IN an en-
barrnssing position, the outcome could
not have been more unfortunate. China
has lost out entirely on her Shantung
claim. Ry reason of advice given her
by the United States she did not raise
at all other questions in which snc was
interested. And by reason of her re-
fusal to sign the treaty under the cir
cumstanccs she is completely Isolated.

MANY 4 SORE MUSCLE LEFT
BY STRENUOUS TIMES IN THE
COMMERCE CHAMBER OUTING

The members of the Harrisburg
Chamber of Commerce owe a vote of
thanks to Mercer B. Tate, George N.
Barnes, Boyd NJ. Ogelsby Martin w.
Eager and Frank ]. Brady, the COM
mittee responsible for yesterdays
picnic, and to George w. Reilly,
whose cabin. Guadaloupe, in the
mountains back of Rockville, was
the scene of the festivities.
Under the guidance of George S.
Reinoehl, the president, and War
rem II. Jackson, secretary, the MEM
bers were taken to the cabin by au-
tomobiles and when they arrived
found "Cappy" Hoy on hand with a
luncheon that was pronounced the
best the Chamber ever put before
hungry guests.
Ensued thereafter various forms
of strenuous exercise designed either
to produce acute indigestion by over
eXertion or to put the deVotce into
shape for the big supper that was
served in the early evening - de-
pending entirely upon the digestive
apparatus of the individual. Phys
icians, however, would have got
small patronage, although they were
in attendance in large numbers, for
the members all turned up in good
shape and hungry at supper time for
the roast corn feast that was served.
John Musser and Donald McCor-
mick were among the first to dis
cover the bar" which had been
rigged up for the occasion and both
drank deeply - MuSser of rootbeer
and Mccormick of orangeade, but
both were disqualified from further
participation in the orgy because it
was discovered that neither owned
pocket bottle opener. Joe"
Wallazz, however, slipped Mr.. Nc
Cormick a bottle of lemon soda and
the dark skies cleared.
Such trout experts as Flavel
Wright and George Tripp examined
the beautiful little stream hard by
and said ii looked "trouty" to them,
and Mr.. Reilly explained that it
ought to look that way owing to the
fact that he had put as many as
fifty thousand small fish into the
stream at one time, but they had all
left Immediately for the head waters
in the mountains. Philip S. Meyer,
for District Attorney, ex-
pressed the legal opinion that trout
was perfectly within It's rights in
going where it pleased, so long as it
did not trespass upon the cultivated
lands of farmers along the stream,
and Deputy Attorney General Har-
gest supplemented it with the
thought that this might be enlarged
upon by including pasture lands.
