Indianapolis, Dec. 24.-Alexander

Howat was released on his previous
bail, and if the agreement is carried
out in good faith, the contempt hear

will be continued against Howat, as
in the cases of the other information

BALLOT TAKEN ON WALKOUT
One Hundred and Twenty-Five Thou
sand Maehlnists Sanction Drastic
Action u the Law Passes Con-
press-Wlll Appeal to Wilson.

Washington, Dec. 2o.-Ninety-eigh
per cent Of the 125,000 union railway
machinists voted In November to
strike with other trades in the event
congress enacted the Cummins rail-
road bill with It's antistrike provis-
ION.
IN making this announcement Will
liam Il. Johnston. president of the In
ternational Association of Machlnists,
said the vote was taken before the
senate interstate commerce commit
tee reported out tle Cummlns meas
ure, and the result was not officially
published because its association did
not want to appear In the attitude Of
attempting to threaten congress.
The machinists' membership Is
around 100000, but not more than 1885,
900 of this number are employed on
railroads.
President Johnston explained that
the strike vote stipulated that union
railway machinlsts would quit work
II the Cummins bill was passed by
both branches of congress, not by one.
"When the roads we're taken over by
the government the employees we're
free," Mr.. Johnston said. "and we pro-
pose that II they are turned back to
private ownership, the employees shall
be equally free. There is no necessity
for such drastic legislation as is pro-
vided for in the Cummins bill. There
never has been general railroad
strike and there never will be, in my
opinion"
SO far as labor officials are advised
they win not be given another hear
ing by senate or house committees,
but they will keep up the fight against
the antistrike section, 1t was said, and
appeal finally to President Wilson to
veto the bill If 1t should be enacted
with that clause intact. y
President Johnston said that no
other trades that would be affected
taken vote, so far as he had been
advised.
The whole question Of railroad leg
islation will be discussed here at a
conference Of the heads of the IA rail-
road brotherhoods, called by Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation Of Labor.
It was explained at federation head
quarters that the Cummins bill and
other pending legislation would be
considered exclusively, without regard
TO other big questions In which rail-
road employees are vitality interested.
The brotherhood. 1t was said, prob
ably would unite in a general protest
against the Cummins antistrike pro-
vision. to be sent to every member of
congress.

WASHINGTON TELLS FOREIGN
NATIONS OF REASONS.
State Department Asks Safe Conduct
For Aliens Who Are Now on Way
Back to Soviet Russia.

Washington, Dec. 25.--An explana-
tion of the deportation of the 249 rad
ical Russians on the transport Buford
was cabled by the state department
to various foreign capitals"
The message said precaution had
been taken ito request for them safe
conduct and humane treatment at the
hands of the authorities under whose
jurisdiction they will pass en- route
to soviet Russia"
Conditions found on it's arrival in
Europe and future orders which may
be given while it is en- route will gov
ern the destination of the transport
with its cargo of deported radicals,
Anthony Caminetti, commissioner gen.
eral Of immigration, said.
"It is, of course, intended to deliver
the deportees to soviet Russia" the
commissioner added.
The departments message follows !:
"There are being deported from the
United States to soviet Russia about
$50 citizens of Russia who are unde-
sirable here These persons. while en-
joying the hospitality of this country,
have conducted themselves in a most
obnoxious manner, and while enjoy
ing the benefits Of living under the
protection of this government have
plotted its overthrow.
''They are a menace to law and or
der. They hold theories which are
antagonistic to the orderly processes
of modern civilization. They have In
dulged in practices which tend to sub
vert the rights which the Constitution
of the United States guarantees to Its
citizens.
"They are arrayed in opposition to
government, to decency, to justice
They plan to apply their destructive
theories by violence in derogation OF
law.
'They are anarchists. They are
persons of such character as to be
undesirable in the United States OF
America and are being sent whence
they came. The deportation Is In &C
cordance with the law.
"Precaution has been taken to re
quest for them safe conduct and hu
name treatment at the hands of the
authorities under whose jurisdiction
they will pass en- route to soviet Rus
sia."

"He has had all that a father and

Queen Marie sadly, "and if he chooses
to go his way we can't help it. We
have pleaded and reasoned with him
until entreaty is no longer possible.
Youth and love, I suppose, will have
their way in spite of kings and queens.

EX-CROWN PRINCE
viii Be Charged With Looting,
Robbery and Other Crimes
Committed in War.
OTHERS To FACE PUNISHMENT
Full List of Germans Whose Surren,
der Will Be Asked Completed and
Steps to Secure Them Have
Been Decided Upon.

London, Dec. 29.-Frederick Will
liam, the former German crown prince,
will be included in the list of persons
whose surrender for trial is demand
ed by the French, according to an un-
official report of a recent meeting be-
tween British law officials and Ed
Guard lgnace, French undersecretary
for military justice.
The ex-crown' prince, it is said, will
be charged with criminal offenses, in
Guiding robbery, looting with violence,
committed in France
There appears to have been no fur
ther decision reached at the confer
ence with regard to the case of for
mer Emperor William.
A full list of the men whose surren-
der will be demanded has been COM
pleted, it was stated, and the steps
which are to be taken to insure their
| surrender have been decided upon.
One or two questions still outstand-
| ing will be submitted to Premiers Lloyd
| George and Clemenceau when they
meet in Paris next month.
| Offer Allies Poor Transportation.
| Paris, Dec 29.-The supreme coun-
| Gil received information as to the re-
suits of the first meeting between Ger
man and allied military experts re-
garding arrangements for the execu-
tfon of the treaty of Versailles.
1t appeared on the first exchange Of
views that the railroad material On
| fered by the Germans for the trauns-
portation of allied troops to districts
| where plebisciteS are to be held was
considered insufficient by the allied
representatives.
The council also considered the ma
ture of the reply of the Swiss memo
randum concerning the entry of Switz-
erland into the League of Nations.
The council will reply to the Swiss
suggestion that its entry into the
league be subject to certain conditions.
Germany Debates Protocol Note.
Berlin, Dec. 29.-The entente's last
note, demanding the signing of the
protocol to the peace treaty, was dis.
cussed by the cabinet in brief ses-
sion.
In official circles the note, it is said
is regarded as further evidence that
the supreme council is playing poh
tics.
Government officials point out what
is believed to be contradiction in the
note, which in its Introductory sen
tence refers to the absence of Ameri
can ratification, and subsequently the
possibility that the United States ma!
be definitely omitted from the list oi
| ratifying powers.
The Berlin government believes ref
, eIence to these conditions superfiuous
inasmuch as it has already indicated
! it does not propose to construe Amer
ica's failure to participate as emitting
Germany to concessions, especially al
, the cabinet is fully aware that ratifi
cation by three powers is all the sane
tion needed.
