 REcESSES UNTIL MARCH i

Washington, Feb. 15.-Recess un- til March l was taken today by the present industrial conference to al- low drafting committee to put into final form the conferences recom- mendations for harmonizing rela- tions between capital and labor.
 In dealings with public utilities, the conference has eliminated railroads inasmuch as congress now is consid- ering the entire railroad problem, with indications that the question of strikes would be acted upon by leg islation.

ATTITUDE OF POLAND
 TOWARD SOVIET RUSSIA

Warsaw, Poland, Friday. Feb. 1S.- In shaping the peace conditions to be presented to the Soviet government of Russia, Poland is assuming an at titude somewhat similar to that taken by the allies toward Germany previous to the armistice, Poland con- tending that it is she who has been wronged and that her war has been a defensive one from the beginning. The framers of the conditions main tain that the burden in every partic- ular should be placed upon the bol- sheviki who have waged war of terror and aggression against Po- lands just rights.
 According to members of the diet, the military authorities have been consulted and they insist upon the most severe guarantees, both terri toral and otherwise, designed to se- cure Poland in the future against any possible encrOachment on the part of the bolsheviki.
 As one method of crippling the bol- sheviki. the army leaders are expect ed to insist that the thousands of ed from Poland when the former cZar's army withdrew to the east must be returned, or sum equiva- lent to their value included in the in demnities. Objects of art and books taken from universities and private libraries and various national keep sakes taken from Poland at diffeernt times will all be demanded returned or, failing this. their value in gold. It is planned to search the Polish records for a hundred years back and demand restitution by the bolsheviki of the valuable historic objects talk en during this time.

Washington. Feb. Is. - Secretary L.znsing's enforced resignation con tinues to hold the attention of official Washington and all the talk among politicians. members of congress and rovernment officials continues to cen ter about it. Gossip as to the proba- hle successor to the former secretary Of state is even subordinateG to dis rf,sSi.,r7 of the sensational climax to the strained relations between Presl- dent Wilson and the former secretary of state which now are known to have been iy existence for more than year
 Such terms as a crisis" in the cab met are freely used, and in sense ind color in the Sfrank acknowledg- nent of Secretary Lane that he was equally responsible for the meetings to which the president objected, but the hest information available indicates that there Is no crisis in the sense that more secretaries are likely to re- sign. in fact it has been stated at the White House that no more resigna- rions are epected as a result of the incident
 Opinion in congress continues dlvld- ed with opponents of the peace treaty supporting NIT. Bansings position and talking of some action to determine
 
 ernmeut is being conducted during President Wilson's illness. There IS even clork room talk of some sort of legislation to specifically define what constitutes the disability of a preSi- dent. more clearly than is provided in the constitution. So far it is all in the realm Of talk; no member Of con zress has brought forward any pro- posai for legislation.
 MF lT-r about whether President Wilson knew of the cabinet meetings which have been going on for three months until he write his letter asking for MT. I.snSinE's resignation. Probably no one bat the president himses and three or four persons most closely around him can answer such ques- ton specifically, but it is being point f-i out in discussion of the incident that reports of the cabinet meetings have been printed regularly in the newspapers; that il has been stated at. the White House that the president reads the pa pers every day, and that in some fuSrances- al least official action which the president took on some sub iecrs was after those subjects had been discussed at the cabinet conferences
 Persons who are well informed of what has been going on inside of the administration hold 10 their belief that inc cabinet meetings were only an incident and that President Wilson himself in one of his letters to Mr- Lansing referred to other and more important reasons when he wrote that the cabinet meeting incident only strengthened a feeling he had for some time and that for some months he had found the secretary of state yielding to his decisions with more and more reluctance.
 The affair is expected to probably come up in congress again tomorrow sir. Lansing meanwhile has denied himself 10 all callers It is understood that he may spent a short vacation in Florida before going to his home in Watertowu. V. '.

RAILROAD EMPLoYEs TO
 COMBAT HIGH LIVING COSTS

Washington, Feb. 15.-Formulationi of definite program as basis oni which to continue it's campaigni against high living costs has been initiated by railroad labor, it was dis-l closed tonight by union officials. While the wage demands of the two milioni railroad workers, which have held ofi-l cial attention since Feb. 3. will be heldj in temporary abeyance at the request of the president, there is no disposition on the part of union leaders to regardi their work as complete or to await ali together-a final decision on the wholel wage controversy to be given by thel general conference of union commit-i teemen to be held here Feb. 23.
 The attitude of the union officials, while they expressed qualification atl the recognition of certain of their principles by President Wilson, is preA dicated on an apparently general be- lief among their membership that thel government has mot held together in any of it's drives on the high cost of living spectre" Much criticism was directed at congress and the heads of executive departments during the re-l cent wage negotiations, leaders said.
 The general feeling of railroad labor was expressed in this question, asked by a union official who has carried sH; grievances throughthe entire negotia- tions:
 Are we, as Americans, to admit that we cannot control the proffteer?"
 The program under consideration will in no way run counter to the plan. of the American Federation of Labor which has announced it's intention of engaging progressively in the coming political campaign. With this railroad union leaders said they were in com- plete accord. They propose however, an amplifcation of and an addition tol the policies outlined by Samuel Gom- pers, federation president with the purpose of 'Fbenefiting all of the people, while helping Iabor''

 Baco-~ went out in his automobile stopped for McMurtry a | his home and went on to Rocky Point. The two men went through the first, second and third floors of the Morris house but found no one. McMurtry carried an automatic pistol. while Bacon was rn- armed. They went into the cellar and found two men crouched in a corner According to McMurtry, he asked them to surrender but the men opened fire with revolvers.
 A pistol fight in the dark ensued McMurtry said, with shots fired from behind chimneys at phantom shapes. When the duel had ended one man was found to be dead. while the other had five bullet wounds in his body The latter died in the hospital two hours later and the police made identifica- tion of both bodies from papers and with the aid of the Stamford police. The police searched the rooms of the two alleged burglars in Stamford and found several trunks containing sil- verware and other articles which they believed were 1art of the loot in re- cent burglaries in this section.

 "The democratic party should stand for this and pledge itself to rebuild the American political structure along this line by clearly dividing its citizens into the law-abiding and law-5 break ing: making it's laws rest equally upon all men; permitting the individual cit iZen who is honest to succeed by hon. est methods; giving to no citizen leg istative advantage; speedily purishing anyone who uniustly obtains success by crooked and dishonest means; rec ognizing that this is still a federation of states; demanding that the states discharge the duties of local self-gov el 1ment: resisting the usurpatiOns of the general government; removing corrupt and biased judges but stand ing always for obedience to the de-

Ind. secre- tary of the democratic national conn mittee, made public tonight, an- nounced his candidacy as a delegate at large from Indiana to the coming San Francisco convention upon "an old- time democratic platform"

 In view of political gossip that Vice President Marshall is slated to become chairman of the democratic platform committee, his letter was read with especial interest by officials here.
 As l am desirous of being dele gate at large from the state of Indi- ana, l wish to state the substance of what 1 think the democratic party should stand for MT. Marshall wrote.

 The war is now over and the re- mobilization of America as well as the rest of the world is taking place.

NEW STAGE OF PEACE
 TREATY FIGHT IN SENATE

Washington, Feb. 1.-The peace treaty fight will pass into another and perhaps decisive stage tomorrow with the best opinion in official and political circles here divided as to whether the outcome will be ratifca- tion or rejection.
 Under a plan agreed upon a week ago the treaty is to be called for mally before the senate with the re- publican reservations adopted at the last session of congress. A brief sea son of general debate is expected while negotiations for a compromise are proceeding, but it is the intention of the leaders to hold the discussion within reasonable bounds and to be- gin within a few days actual senate consideration of the changes pro- posed in the reservations.
 Solution of most of the collateral issues is expected to be reached with little difficulty along the lines laid down by the recently dissolved bi- partisan conference.
