PULLMAN COMPANY.
DENIED RIGHT TO.
RUN AN OPEN SHOP.
CORPORATION MUST DEAL WITH
UNIONS UNDER DECISION
HANDED DOWN TODAY BY
UNITED STATES RAILWAY Ia.
eoR BOARD.

Chicago, June 2l.-The Pullman
company lost its open shop fight be-
fore the United States railroad labor
board today when the board upheld
the contention of the union leaders
that the company had not obeycd the
letter and the spirit of the transpor
taton act when it conferred with its
employees in mass meetings. The
board threw out the Company's petit
Ftion for cut in the wages OF its
shop employees and instructed il to
$50 back and meet the duly elected
representatives of the employees.
The shop crafts and clerks in the
Pullman works are involved i'll the
case. The boards decision will de.
lay any action on reduction in their
wages for severa weeks,
Under the transportation act the
company must meet the union lead
srs and in the event they fail to
reach a decision file Il petition before
the board and ask a new hearing.
The controversy between the Pull
man company and the unions IS a
continuation of labor difficulties dat
ing back several years over the open
shop" The company has declined
70 deal with union officers in matters
affecting all employees, taking the po.
sition that employees not members Of
the unions are not represented by
the labor organizations When the
company proposed a wage reduction
recently mass meetings were held
and all employees were invited. Rep
presentatives OF the company told
the labor board in the hearing to
establish whether the company should |
be admitted to the general wage re.
duction hearing that a large percent |
age of the employees attended the |
meetings. Union representatives who !
charged discrimination against their /
members, declared that the cOmpanys |
stand was merely another attempt to |
break down the labor organizations |
and demanded that before the com |
pany should be allowed to come be-
fore the board asking a wage cut it .
should hold proper conferences.
These conferences the men con
tended, should be held with duly |
elected representatives. of the EN-
ployes and not with employees en- mas.
Sc.
According to the company's figures |.
the total number OF employees on the |
rolls on June :, when the mass meet !
ings were held. was 10,079. OF these /
6,l72 were present, the company said |
1t was brought out at the hearing, !
however, that representative of the |
company presiding at the meetings |
had no other authority than to pre-
sent the proposition that wage cut
of II per cent as established in the
June l wage decision of the labor
board be applied The board held
that this proposal did not constitute
conference as contemplated by the
law.

HOW TO PATCH GRAVEL ROAD
Work Should Always Be Done When
Road Is Wet, Preferably When
Water is Standing in Ruts.

Patching is usually neglected or
done in such a way as to cause two
ruts to form where there was but one
before. That is the invariahle result
of filling a rut too full This work
should always be done when the road
is wet, preferably when the water is
still standing in every little hollow on
the road surface, so that the workmen
can just see where TO place the new
gravel and about how much is needed.
Unless the rut is a very large one,
it is always best TO shovel the gravel
from the wagon into it. rather than TO
raise a sideboard and attempt To dump
a part of the load. Patching done in
the proper manner when the road is
wet. followed by a road drag. will
maintain an old gravel road surface
as good as new until it is so badly
worn that an entirely new surface is
required. The gravel should never be
poorer than that forming the surface
layer of the old road. and espe ciaHy
should contain a little. but not an ex-
cess of clay.

He succeeds the late Frederick w.

Major Emery was one Of the five
vice commanders of the Legion, hav-

the Cleveland meeting OF the organ

Thomas J. Bannigan, Of Hartford
Conn, was elected vice-commander,
succeeding Mr.. Emery in that position.
Major Emery saw much fighting dur

Something had occurred to delay &C

who would be unsupported, TO deliver
TO the consplrators his definite plan Of
action. All this seemed reasonable
enough, and in no way surprised me.
But the appearance Of the woman
did. and also the close intimacy of this
man Harris. She was not criminal, not
even Of the insurrectionary class TO my
eyes. and l could not imagine what in
fuence had ever induced her TO accept
such a commission. Something about
her personality, some underlined quality
of wOmanhOod, had made a definite i'm

the saloon in which she waited alone;
her coming there secretly in the night;
the meeting with an unknown man:
the accompanying him up that black
alley to this hidden rendezvous Of con
spiracy. Every act stamped her as UNI
worthy.
In spite Of all this evidence as to the
truth of the matter, nothing harmo-
nized. She did not belong-the gulf
was too wide Yet there was no other
explanation possible-she was actually
here, in the den of conspiracy, alone

with her direct from Washington those

LAKE OF FIRE NEVER QUIET
Spectacle Furnished by Hawaiian VOL
cano May Well Be Said to Be
Everlasting.

Hawaii's lake of everlasting fire
has never been quiet so far as HilO
local records or traditions testify.
That IS, not quiet for any length of
time.
1t covers itself with a black sheet
Of lava which looks like wet rubber
at intervals as regular as the breath
ing of a sleeper. This black covering
no sooner completely hides the liv-
ing. angry red lava than it cracks and
splits with startling noises, breaks in
to cakes which sink into the burning
pit, and the molten lava of the lake
is again in connection. The whole
strange performance, as l recall. the
freezing over, the breaking up. the
renewed billowIng of fire, takes less
than ten minutes
The lake so called, is an opening
hundred yards or so wide in the floor
of the crater, which is eight miles in
circumference. 1t can be compared
to a hole in ice; the crater floor, al
though of black, hardened lava, is in
physical character like rough shore
ice, the surface of the lake like water
kept in commotion by wind. except
for the periodic freezing over. The
live lava of the lake rolls in waves
which break against its shore. sending
up spindrift, which. blown from the
top of the waves. hardens into hair
like glass. The natives call this glass
"Pele's hair" that lady being the God
dess of Fire
Little wonder that the excellent
deacon who had sat on the edge Of the
lake in wonder and terror piously an
swered one who asked him what tho
lake was like: Brother, it's a HI
