STATE WILL TRY
 ID DEVISE PLAN
 10 END STRIKES

TACOMA, Wash, Aug. IA Progress is reported in the movement in the state of Washington to devise a bet ter way to settle industrial disputes than thru. strikes and lookouts.
 The Washington lndustri- al Code Commission for more than a year has been gathering data from en- ployers and employees to be used as the basis for a new law to be presented to the state Legislature when it convenes next January. The Commission was instructed to frame a law which will settle disputes between labor and capital without recourse to the cumbersome weapons of the past that so often work a hardship on the public at large.
 Before the law is written this fall the Commission plans to give hearing to every person in Washington who thinks he has a solution and will have studied the statutes of every state in the union that has attempted to better the relations between labor and capital. Already hearings have been held in most of the larger cities of the state, and the commits sion made a special trip to Vancouver, B. C., where labor leader and employers were met and where the Ca- nadian Industrial Disputes Act was thoroughly dis cussed.
 Tt was found in British Columbia y Secretary De- Witt M. Evans of the Com mission said, that councils of employers and employees with an industry are proving beneficial. These councils are more important in getting the two interests together than are the tribunals pro- vided in the British Colum- bia Act."
 Naturally, according to Mir. Evans, there is come dis crepancy between employers and employees regarding the best way amicably to settle disputes, but both are agreed that the huge economic loss resultant from strikes should be prevented. This desire to abolish strikes and lock- outs, MT. Evans believes, is the best indication that the commission will be able to draw up a workable piece of legislation.
 The commission realizes it cannot create a law that will a b olish the underlying causes of contention between labor and capital" said MT. Evans, "but it does believe it can frame a set of rules and regulations for handling disputes so that the interest of the public and both

BOTH SIDES CLAIM THEY WCN STRIKE
 IN ISLAND BATTLE

HONOLULU, T. H. Aug. l4.-The strike of sugar plantation laborers, princi- |pally Japanese and Filipinos, which began January lo last, declared over July 1, follow ing conference between a committee of labors and John Warehouse, president 'of the Hawaii Sugar Plant CTS Association. Immediately the striking labors began pouring back to the planta- tions and it was expected that early this month all the approximately 5000 men still out would have returned to the fields and mills.
 Upwords of 5000 workers originally joined the strike, but of these about 1000 Filipinos returned to work before the walkout was de- clared over, while several hundred Japanese also came back.
 
 ! Officials of the Hawaiian Laborers Association, success sor to the Federation of lap anese labor which called the strike, in telling the mem bers of the organization to 'return to work, are report ed as having claimed victory for the workers. This view was also taken in reports of the strikes end printed in Japanese papers of Honolu- lu, which intimated that cer- tain concessions, presumably as to wages, bonus rates and working hours had been ob- tained from: the planters.
 President Warehouse of the Planters Association, however, emphatically an- nounced that the association in dealing with the commit tee of laborers had not been dealing with the laborers' federation, but with the workers themselves, and that no concessions had been made by the planters associa- ton, and that the strikers would have to apply for work on the status of new hands.
 In Japanese circles confi- dence is expressed that there twill be a readjustment of wages and other details in the autumn.
 The Planters Association has made no announcement las to the loss in sugar, if any, caused by the strike. Estimates in sugar and Jap- anese circles place the loss of the Japanese strikers at up- wards of $4,OOO,OOO. This does not include the losses suffered by the Filipinoes and strikers of other na-

SUPREME COURT
TO DECIDE CASE
Railway Issue Sure to Be Appealed
Fight in New York Not Ended
by Order of Interstate Com
merce Commission.

Albany, N. Y, Nov. 20.-The su-
preme court of the United tSates
ultimately will be called upon to
decide the jurisdiction of the inter-
state commerce commission over in
trastate passenger and baggage
rates, it was announced today at the
office of the Attorney General New
ton. The order of the commission
yesterday that the railroads operat-
ing in New York establish intrastate
passenger and baggage rates to con-
form to the interstate schedules by
increasing their passenger rates from
3 to SO cents mile, will not end the
fight of the state authorities for a
restoration of the two cents a mile
rate between Albany and Buffalo, the
attorney general said.
"This is a sweeping and entirely
new decision" said Attorney General
Newton, regarding the commissions
order. Heretofore the states alone
have exercised the power to fix local
rates. During the war congress fixed
all rates but under the Esch-Cum-
minis bill the old state rates were
restored.
The appellate division of the su-
preme court at Albany decided last
week that the old two cent fare on
the main line from Albany to Buff
falo was restored September l when
the federal war time control was
terminated. The railroad appealed
to the court of appeals, where the
question will be argued next Mon
day.
"The state will Immediately appeal
to the United States supreme court
for a reversal of the order of the
interstate commerce commission and
probably the judgment of the court
of appeals will be taken to the
United States supreme court by the
railroad or the state, whatever the
railroad or the state, whatever the
result"

MADE FORTUNE IN AN HOUR
From the New York World.

Members of the wholesale bltuml-
nous coal trade were pricking up
their ears the other day over
story of the neat little killing" in
their line. The story concerns a deal
made by coal bucaneer who carries
his best business resources directly
under his hat.
By reason of having ''the right
DOPE" and at the sole cost of few
minutes conversation over the long
distance telephone he bought and
Immediately resold thirty thousand
tons of bituminous coal and turned
net profit of just $4,000.
1t seems a pity the real identity of
this Napoleon of finance should be
cloaked under an alias. But for the
purposes of this narrative its three
principal characters must be desig-
mated respectively by Messrs. Smith
Brown and Robinson.
Smith is an operator who had a
fine lot of coal. Part Of it recently
arrived at tidewater and the rest was
on the rail en- route to one of the
North Atlantic ports. He had expect
ed to be able to ship it advanta-
geously for export, but the vessels
upon which he had relied had been
delayed. He was confronted by the
costly probability of having his coal
tied up at tidewater with no chance
to load it into cargo ships for an in
definite period. Such an emergency
would mulet him with heavy demur-
rage charges. Under one of the new
ly adopted rules of the Tidewater
Coal Exchange moreover, a penalty
of 10 cents a day ton is imposed
for failure to dump coal promptly
within forty-eight hours after notice
from the commissioner to do so.
These charges if incurred would eat
up Smiths prospective profits.
A Profit Of 81 A Ton
Browns predicament was precise
the reverse of that of Smith. Brown
had his ships ready to load and
steam away, but he had suffered
hard luck in the non-arrival at tide
water Of his coal from the mines.
There had been the usual excuses
traffic congestion, labor shortage and
he was menaced with the enormous
costs in port for an indefinite
period.
That was the knot which Robinson
the Napoleon of finance, cut with a
single stroke Of the telephone trans
miter. He happened to be aware OF
the predicament of both Smith and
Brown. Therein he saw opportunity
beckoning him with a capital o. He
called Smith by long distance.
"This is Robinson" said he.
"What can you let me have thirty
thousand tons of bituminous at for
immediate delivery; no thirty
days transaction, but cash on the
nail?"
Smith saw his opportunity to un-
load without loss. He knew nothing
Of Browns troubles. Making quick
calculation he replied:
81 can sell you thirty thousand
tons, standing or rolling; strictly
cash, at Sc a ton."
you're on" said Robinson, and
the deal was closed after a little fur
ther conversation concerning the
port at which the coal already had
arrived.
Then Robinson called up Brown
and Brown grasped at the chance to
get his needed cargoes.
"I can let you have the thirty
thousand tons at SIT ton," was
