Heads Deny Power
To Call OF Strike

More than 300 railway conductors
of the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad,
on the Lexington Louisville division,
have rereived orders to go on strike
November 8, according to John d.
Kinsella, Of Lexington.
Mr.. Kinsella is a member of the
Lexington Division, No. 239, Of the
railway conductors brotherhood,
which has headquarters at Ashland,
KY. L. E. Shepherd, Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, is president, and R. F. Giles
pie, Ashland, chairman Of the broth
erhood. The men are waiting in
structions from Chicago, Mr.. Kin
sella declared, and unless they hear
orders to the contrary viii go out on
strike November 8.
W. P. Frost, Lexington, general
chairman Of the Brotherhood Of
Railway Trainmen of the C. & o., is
in Chicago consulting with officials
there.
Executives Of the big four broth
erhoods and the switchmen's union
of North America, after a day Of
verbal jockeying with the railroad
labor board, declared late yesterday
that no power on earth save "sat-
isfactory settlement" can prevent
their men walking out, beginning on
next Sunday.
The decision came at the close Of
day Of fruitless questioning when
Judge R. M. Barton, chairman Of
the labor boards, called each union
president in turn and asked him four
prepared questions, the third of
which was:
eff the board shall declare a
strike is not justified and should not
occur and direct that the employees
not strike, will that order be obey
ed?n
The union chiefs, Warren S.
Stone, of the engineers; W. g. Lee.
of the trainmen; L. E. Shepherd, Of
the conductors; w. s. Carter, of the
firemen, and T. C. Cashan, of the
switchmen, declared in turn they had
no power to cancel the strike order
and expressed the individual opinion
that their men would not obey an or
der from them or the board to re-
main at work; and reiterated their
previous declarations that only
Satisfactory settlement" could avert
the wakout.
Such a settlement, they said,
would be reconsidered action by the
board of its twelve per cent wage
reduction order of last July l, or a
movement by the individual Railroads
to confer with the unions and set
aside the boards order.
The government will make its f.
nal attempt to prevent the threaten
ed general strike today when presi-
dents, general chairmen and execu-
tive committees of the five train
service unions meet at conference
reported to have been arranged at
the instigation of the Railroad La
Dor Board.

raised one hand as though to check
any advance The light of the lift
ed lantern revealed her fully.
There was a moment or two of
silence.
Strike me blind! I'd carry you
of myself. Venus, II I'd half a
chance"
He set the lantern on the floor
and went down on one knee beside
Astarte, bringing his face close to
hers. He was pockmarked. wide
across the jaws, and with evil black
eyes that held devil.
Meet me tomorrow night an
hour after sunset behind the guard

But If you don't come I'll get even
with you, Venus-I'll get you
scourged: Will you meet me?"

That's right. Play me fair and
III do the same by you.
His hand fell on her. closing
upon her arm Tightening 50 that
she WINGED ever so slightly. She
did not shrink or lower her eyes.
Obeying the subtle, untaught in
stincts of her womanhood she
raised her face a trifle, giving him
half yelled, liquid look In the
next moment his mouth was upon
hers.
It was a brutal kiss, infinitely
coarsef than any that she had re-
ceived from Valerius. Her whole
being shrieked out against It, but
she did not strain away or seek to
turn her face.
Footsteps sounded in the gallery.
Sill holding her the man raised his
head
THAT was a good one, Venus
I'll tell 'em I've beaten this covert

good friends, you and l."
He released her, picked up. the
lantern, stepped out into the gal
lery. and drew the curtains. The
sandalled feet of the soldiers made
a measured trampling upon the
staircase as they descended.
Astarte lay prostrate upon the
cold marble for some moments.
She writhed dumbly, rubbing her
clenched fists against her pillaged
lips. Rare and disgust possessed
her But she had achieved her pur-
pose.

granting the unimaginable bliss Of
union.
Astarte uttered nothing Her lips
were a little apart. Her eyes had
mingled with the eyes of the young
man at the moment when she
opened them after her involuntary
shudder.
She seemed TO be drawn down a

of her lips, that were cool as

for caresses. She had received and

David's arms frightened about her.
He kissed her rnuth again. Then a
barely perceptible pause. and then

The young man was standing as
she had left him. He looked at her,
but did not speak.
Astarte leaned against the wall,
extending one arm along it, palm
downward.
1.-The soldier have gone" she
said. "They will not come here.
One OF them spoke to me. I had
to promise that | would meet him
tomorrow night or he would have
searched for you and found you.
But will not meet him! I, hate
him worse than Valerius! He
kissed me. Ugh"
A twitching shudder passed over
her
"He-kisscd you?"
II was as though she had casually
mentioned the violation of a sane,
tuary.
Astarte had closed her eyes for
an instant as she shuddered under
her strong disgust. They opened
and encountered directly the eyes
that were steady as those OF an
archer who draws his bow against
a lion.
In the diffused moonlight his face
was clear to her. A peculiar thrill,
honey-sweet, struck through the
girl. Her senses, spurred by the
excitement OF the feast and by the
passion of Valerius, painted for
realization.
The face In the moonligh~ might
have been that Of a worshiper
kneeling with extended arms before
an enshrined divinity.
''He is very handsome" said the
quick whisper of Astarte's con-
seriousness, and the honey-sweet
thrill struck through her.

Then a little break, and then the
footsteps of the thirteenth. They
approached, came level with the
drawn curtains, paused.
Astarte held her breath. The
curtains were jerked apart, the vel
low light of lantern fell upon her
face Involuntarily she moved her
head, looking upward.
A nalf-breed soldier 10 gilt trap

sword at his flank stood between

"Hullo!" he said, "are you the
