CHICAGO, May 26.-Fair wage in creases for the two million railroad employees in America are not opposed by the railroads. the labor board was informed by E. T. Winter today in closing his reply to the demands of the men for increases in pay which, it is said, will total S1.0eO. 100000 if granted.
 MT. Winter, who is chairman of the committee representing the roads in the hearing said that in return the railways expected honest and con scientious work from the men and that each employe would feel obligated to give efficient and ungrudging service ''
 The roads are opposed. however, to some of the demands because they "are unjustified and not upheld by the facts in the case The said. They also are opposed to the incorporation of na- tional agreements entered into by the federal railway administration into any awards made by the board, he con- tinued.
 Most of the agreements deal with the right of organization and similar mat ters and only in a few instances deal with wages he said.
 The presentation of the railroads testimony in the hearing was finished today and tomorrow the rebuttals by the employees will start. The railroad trainmen will be heard first.
 I've are not fighting wage increases as a whole" Mir Winter said 'It is only in individual cases where the de- mands are unjust and exorbitant that we are opposed to them.
 'It is impossible to adjust these con ditions by granting blanket increases covering every part of the country. Our idea is that different parts of the coun- trv should be treated differently.
 Unless the employees present testi- rony in their rebuttals which we con sjder unfair, we probably will rest our case and present no further testi- nonv unless it is requested by the

 Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, ad- ministration leader in the peace treaty fight, joined Republicans opposing the measure, and there were indications that other Democrats would stand with him.
 The meeting of the house foreign affairs committee, called to obtain the views of Secretary Colby, was post poned because of the secretary's in ability to attend. but there were many informal conferences at which mem any proposal which would send Amer ican troops to Europe or Asia.
 Plan to Table Message
 Chairman Porter indicated that the presidents message would be consid- cred briefly and then laid on the trble, which would end it.
 Inasmuch as the senate has failed to ratify the treaty with it's league of nations covenant, Republican members of the house committee declared there were legal objections to the presidents proposal. They contended that to ac- eept a mandate would be h4e doing indirectly what congress had not per mitted to be done directly.
 The house committee is not expected to meet until Friday. but the senate foreign relations committee probably will take up the mandate question to- morrow.
 The president was asked. in a resolu- tion introduced today by Representa- tive Mason, Republican Illinois, for full information as to the cost and number of troops required in connec- tion with his mandate proposal

Chairman Hale indicated that the admiral would be the last witness and that his statement would be brief.
 In the course of a verbal tilt with Senator Hale today, Secretary Daniels threatened to carry to the full senate naval committee a protest against the chairman's conduct of the inquiry. The secretary charged that steam roller" was being used on him and charac- terized as unfair and unjust" and d stigma on the navy a long compila- tion of statistics Chairman Hale sought to read into the record.
 The tabulatiOn. Senator Hale said, was compiled in his office from figures submitted by Mr. Daniels and related to the state of preparedness of the major ships cf the navy just prior to the declaration Of war by the United States. Nr. Daniels retOrted that the chairman has misinterpreyed the de-

 'tThe Arizona unfit 10 fight AIr. Daniels went on. "It is laughable decline to answers questions based on such a tabulation and Genounce it as unfair, unjust and a stigma on the American navy. l will carry my pro- test to the full naval affairs commit tee if necessary.
 Chairman Hale said he would other wise designate the columns marked fit to fight" and unfit to fight and then put the compilation in the record. Sec retary Daniels demanded that the sen ator take the stand as a witness and take the oath before submitting evil dence This the chairman refused to do and Mr. Daniels then demanded that the person who made the compila- tion be sworn a $ a witness. Again he was overruled by the chairman. Sena- tor Pittman at this point protested against the tabulation going into the record and left the room after the chairman had announced he would not yield in his stand.

 WASHINGTON, May 26-InVestiEa- tion was ordered by the state depart ment today of the circumstances at- tending the Kidnapping of two Amcri- cans in Mexico The American consul at Chihuahua was authorized to com duct the inquiry and there were tndi- cations no representations would be made to the new Mexican government unless the investigation develops the men were seized by others than forces of Francisco Villa. It was assumed, however, the Americans were carried off at Villas orders as a part Of his tactics to eXtort tribute from the min- ing companies.
 Homer C. Carr one of the captivce. is mining engineer employed by tna American Smeltiug and Refining cOn- pany, who went to Mexico from New York city. The identity of the other prisoner was uncertain The consular report gave the name as @NIacDona1d.'
 The records of the department show two men of that name both mining en- gineers in Mexico. one Of them in the Parral district near Jiminez. There is also M. C. Donald of Vernon. Tex, who went 10 Mexico to work in the oil fields.
 Concern over the safety of the Amer jeans was less than that manifested by revolutionary agents here over the re- sumption of the warfare waged be- tween Villa and the constituted authori- ties in Mexico for so many years. To the revolutionary agents. refusa1 of Villa to accept their terms and the con sequent necessity Of renewing military operations against him have meant delay in the recognition Of their gov ernment either by the United States or any other power.
 No efforts have been made by the new government officials to obtain rec ognition and it is believed here that none will be made until some indication is received from the United States gov ernment that such action would receive favorable attention. It has becn claimed that legally the government now existing in Mexico is constltu- tionally correct and that de h HLcrtt. the president ad interim, might send a representative here as an ambassador without awaiting recognition. but it is known he and his associates have been advised to move slowly in that respect and be content with any negotiations the United States government may have with the Mexican government as a de facto power.
