by Feb. I, will be the basis for
the examination of the Home
Builders and the Drake mill.

where the night air drove the wine vapor

WORKING RULES

Several Lines Unable to Reach
Agreement With Employees

CHICAGO, July 16--Working rules and
conditions for employees of the railroads
will come before the United States Rail-.
way Labor Board in the near future for
adjudication.
The Chicago & Alton is the first of
the big roads to refer its case back to-
the labor board. After six weeks of ne-l
gotiations between the railway and its
employees no agreement has been reached
and the board has been asked to adjust.
the dispute.
The chief points Of disagreement were
over the eight-hour- day, which the board,
has indorsed, and on the question OF
overtime. The employees of the Alton
refuse to accept a nine to hour day,
which they declare is, in effect, the propo-i
sition of the road. There are a number
of minor points in controversy.
Other roads are expected to follow the
Alton.
Several roads are reported to have,
reached agreements with their men on.
the main points involved but will ask.
the labor board to aid in the adjust
ment Of minor details.
Rulings on the controversy between the
Pennsylvania road and the American Fed
Grafton of Labor is to be reached next
week. The Pennsylvania has organized
its men in accordance with a plan de-,
vised by the road and has ignored tho

unions contend this is a violation of the

JITNEY LINES TO
FIGHT MOVE FOR
NEW ORDINANCE
Besiege Members of Council to
Make Protest Against City
Regulation.

It has become quite evident that Mayor
Charles W Jewett and the indianapolis
Street Railway Company will have con
siderable opposition TO overcome tefore
the proposed ordinance legislatinS jttney
buses or the streets occupied by car
tracks can be enacted.
Mem m5ers of the city council have been
beseeched by jitney bus operators, their
friends. patrons and sympath!zers, and
among others who are not particularly in
terested ln the bus business there has
developed a sentiment for the proper
regulation and befrlending Of the 5itney
business.
A proposal that jitney bus operators
he REQUIRED to file with the city definite
route ana to operate on that route dur
ing prescribed hours has been made to
couucilmen Advocates of this plan agree
that the bus operators should be bonded
and bound to maintain service during
more than the rush hours Of the trans
pOrt3tion day.
1t is argued by these friends Of the
iitnev bus that the street car company
is either unable or unwilling 10 give the
city the service it requires, that the com
pany never has given adequate traEspor-
tation facilities md that the busses are
rather than suppressed,
DO NOT WANT
JITNEY ELIMINATED.
Several members of the council have
expressed themselves as being opposed
TO elimination Of the busses but entirely
willing to regulate them in a proper
manner.
Other members OF the council take the
viewpoint that it would be folly for the
city to eradicate jitneys without an iron
clad agreement that the street car com
pany would furnish an adequate service
at a rate no higher than IS collected by
the jitneys.
It IS certain that Councilman Browns
proposed ordinance 10 keep the jitneys
off the car lines VIII met with strenuous
opposition.
How much OF this opposition can be
traced TO the fact that the car company
is depending on Mayor Jewett and his
friends to put 1t over" remains to
be seen. In the years gone by the sup
port OF the administrative branch OF the
city government has meant the opposi-
tion Of the majority Of the legislative
branch and It was very evident from the
