 The railroad now is operated by the strikers under the state government, which seized the railroad and granted the demands of the strikers to renew traffic. The chambers of commerce hope their conferences may lead to the road being returned to its owners.
 Representatives of the strikers an- nounced today the men would return to work under the American owners under the old wage scale and former working conditions for three months if the company would recognize their union. Supporters of Governor de la Huerta said he did not wish to retain control of the road longer than was necessary.

JOHNSON STILL LEADS WOOD IN
 NEBRASKA VOTE
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

i. OMAHA, Neb., April 21.-Senator Hiram Johnson continued to lead for the republican presidential preference as the votes of the Tuesday primary found their way slowly into tabulation headquarters of the newspaper bureaus who were counting the votes here to- day, while William Jennings Bryan gained enough votes on the days count to place him among the first four can didates for delegate at large to the San Francisco convention.
 With something more than a third of the precincts of the state reporting, Senator Johnson had a lead of S645 votes over Gen. Leonard Wood, his nearest competitor. with Gen. John J. Pershing in third place.
 In the Bryan Hitchcock SkirmiSh for delegate at large, the former not only managed to get within the coveted four on the votes thus far counted, but found one of his running mates there with him, Stephens.
 CubernatoriaI Result Contested
 It appeared to be the general opinion among democratic leaders that former Gov Morehead was winner in the gubernatorial race by probably the largest plurality Of any candidate voted for on Tuesday.
 At the same time enough returns had been received to incline republican politicians to believe that Gov. Me kelvie would win out in the final count
 That Senator Hitchcock is a winner for democratic presidential indorse- ment was assured after few hundred precincts had been heard from, coming from all parts of the state, showing him to be leading his opponent. Robert Ross, by almost three votes to one.
 A real contest has developed, how ever. between Arthur Mullen and w. H. Thompson for democratic national committeeman and it will require great many more returns before the re- suit of this contest can even be pre- dicted by the followers Of either man.
