The big offensive or railroad executives
Will be waged against the shop crafts
in event of a walkout, 1t was indicated
by the trend of events
Executives do not plan to employ strike
breakers to man the shops, but intend
to put padlocks on their doors until
the men seek their Jobs back. it was au-
thoritatively stated
Then it was stated by one executive
when the men come back TO work 1t will
be under open shop conditions.
1t was believed here that emIssaries Of
the brotherhoods and other crafts would
meet in Cleveland to talk over their mu-
tual problem.
Following the meeting Of Western rail-
road executives here yesterday, plans
were being laid for fighting the strike
Of the brotherhoods.
THE trains will run was the only
comment Of Samuel Fenton, president
Of the Chicago Western Railroad.
Executives apparently are confident it
will be fairly easy task to get men to
man the complicated engines.
There was a report OF a strike on
my line some weeks back" said the presi-
dent Of one line. Experienced rail-
readers, out Of work applied for the
jobs. Men must eat"

TWIN FALLS. Idaho. Oct. 1s.-The
State Of Idaho,. which specifically
charges Mrs LYDIA Southland with the
murder Of her fourth husband, Edward
f. Meyer, today undertook to prove she
poisoned Husband Number One"
Robert Dooley, and his brother, Edward
Dooley.
Previously the State had introduced
testiLc: 7, the purpose Of which was to
support IS contention that she also had
poisoned her second husband, Gordon
McHaffie, and her third husband, Harlan
c. Lewis, as well as her fourth husband
Meyer, for whose murder she is on trial
All deaths were caused by poison, the
State charges. The State announced It
would prove that Mrs. Southland killed all
Eve for the same motive-to collect life in
surance.
Relatives Of Mrs. SOuthard's first hus-
band arrived from Keystone No, today
to aid in the prosecution Of the alleged
women Bluebeard." They were met by
relatives of the defendants second and
third husbands. all of whom apparently
came for the same purpose.
Mrs. Southland bought clothing she ex-
pected to wear at the funeral of her first
husband before his death, according to
testimony offered today. Evidence was
also introduced tending to show that she
had borne hostile attitude toward her
brother-in-law, Edward Dooley.
Mrs. John Moore of Knoxville, Tenn
sister Of Mrs. Southard's second husband
McHafie, testified that her brother was Ill
with abdominal pains for three weeks
before the accused woman called a doctor.

the situation and we gave them our final
word at the Chicago conference. Taking
over OF the railroads by the Government
therefore appears to be the only way Of
preventing the strike scheduled TO begin
Oct. 80"
At the meeting of the Eve principal
union leaders here tomorrow called prim-
arily to plan the conduct OF the general
strike It was intimated that the posi-
bility Of interference by Washington
would be the principal subject discussed.
BROTHERHOOD CHIEFS
ATTEND CONFERENCE.
In addition TO Stone. those who win
attend the conference are:
w G.. Lee, president OF the Brother
hood OF Railway Trainmen; L. r. Shep-
pard, president Of the Order Of Railway
Conductors; W. s. Carter president Of
the Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engine
men and Fireman, and c. T. Cashen
president Of the Switchmens Union Of
North America
In further discussing possible Govern
ment Intervention. Stone said that 'tak-
ing over OF the railroads Is what 1t
must come to eventually"
AT the same time Stone made the
charge that the executives really want
a strike" and intlmated the present sit,
uation is a part Of the open shop fight
III 1t had been a question Of wage re-
auctions only there would have been no
strike" he said. II have from rs to 100
letters giving instances OF attempts by
different railroads to break down the
working rules that have been obtained
by arbitration, by decisions OF the Rail
way Labor Board and by other means"
The union leaders, according to Stone,
are keeping their eyes on Washington.
People in the capital recall the great
outcry against President Wilson's In
reference when he stepped into the rail
road situation, and the politicians are
studying the possible reaction before they
make u definite move in the present
crisis" Stone said.
Both Stone and Lee discussed the pos
sibility Of the Government attempting to
run mail trains, in the event the 1000, 900
railway and allied employees walk out.
NO INCEPTION
FOR MAIL TRAINS.

with the preliminary work of getting out
assessment statements to the Association
membership"
On Dec. 2, 1920, the minute book
shows that an executive committee meet
ing was held at the Motel SEVERN and
the following minutes were included: ut
was voted to draw an order on the spe-
ciaI fund of the association to Harvey
Coonse, who will in turn disburse the
sum to indianapolis men who had been
bearing the expense of the executive sec
retary's office. The Indianapolis manu-
facturers have been standing the total ex-
pense of this office, on the understanding
that whatever was collected on an as
sessment for this purpose from manufaG-
turers outside of Indianapolis, would be
turned over to the Indianapolis associa-
ton to help them IN bearing this ex-
pense. The salary of the executive sec
rotary Is 81 900"
The official records show that Mr..
Wyckof, who is a defendant in the so
called ice trust case, refused to state
his salary on advise of counsel
The evidence in the case shows that
Wyckof was appointed fair price com
missioner In October, 1919, and that he
gave up that office in November, 1920,
and also that he was selected as execu-
tive secretary of Ice Dealers Association
in May, 1919, the State claims.
! DIVIDED CITY
INTO ZONES.
| 1t is the contention of the State that
| districting or dividing the city into zones
was to benefit the large manufacturers
Of ice
Witnesses were introduced by the State
| in an attempt to show that certain ice
manufacturers named as defendants at
tempted to prevent Ice peddlers from sell
ing ice at a price lower than go cents a
hundred pounds, and that an attempt
was made to restrict the territory in
which peddlers could sell ice.
Mrs. Benjamin f. Rowan testified that
the company from which she bought ice
attempted to restrict the territory.
Mrs L. Il. Owens. go East Twenty
! Fourth street, testified that in the sum
mer OF 1919 she purchased ice from the
/ Polar Ice and Fuel Company but that
In the summer of 1920 She was informed
! by a driver that she could not buy from
that company because the Polar Ice ana
/ Fuel Company could not furnish ice to
! the district where she had moved but
| that she must buy from the Artificial
Ice and Coal Storage Company.
The State has numerous other wit
pesses including patrons OF the ice com
panles, who are waiting to testify for
the State
Twill be used in hearing the evidence.

talk. We will make no distinction be-
tween mail and freight trains"
Stone said he never heard of any law
compelling a man to work when he wants
to quit, and adding, there is no peonage
in the United States yet, though it may
come to that"
Meantime dissemination of the printed
strike calls continued from the brother
hood offices here. It was believed this
work would be completed some time to-
day.
Union leaders, while making no open
admissions to that effect, are known to
feel that the great mass of public opin-
ion is against them and that in the event

the last threatened American railway
strike. the mere threat of a tieup at
that time winning the unions practically
all they asked without having to force
the issue In formal statement Stone
outlined the position Of the union men
as follows:
"W hen the transportation act of 1920
became a law it was hoped by the en-
ployes that all disputes would be ad-
justed and decisions rendered by the
board would be complied with by the
carriers and employees. Instead of COM
plying with the decisions of the labor
board, the railroads soon began TO disre-
gard or fout its decisions.
Indiana daily times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1914-1922, 1921-10-18

The telegram did not indicate what
proposals for A. peaceful settlement, if
any, the Government wage fixing body
would lay before the union leaders, but
it was considered certain that the results
of the conferences held in Washington be-
tween the public group Of the labor board
and the Interstate Commerce Commission
would be laid before the leaders, as a
basis for a compromise OF the present
tense situation, with the hope that the
strike order might be revoked before II
becomes effective.
Whether the railway executives also
have been called into the conference was
not known here. but it was thought
probable they had been asked to attend
Indiana daily times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1914-1922, 1921-10-18

Of the strike going through this will be
the biggest handicap they will have to
overcome.
On the other hand, they believe their
strength is so great that by a quick
thrust" they can utterly paralyze ma
tional industry and force a quick deci-
sion in their favor to save the country
from a real disaster.
The one past factor that created con-
siderable pessimism about union head
quarters was the example Of the British
railway strike when an even more closely
knit organization failed because of the
pressure Of public opinion.
But this incident was balanced against

and Judge Walter Pritchard, now on
the city court bench. were in this class
Dan Brown. one of Hartmans advisers
Elias Dulberger, south side attorney,
and Miss Jessie Levy also have been men
toned. Selection Of one Of the first four
however, was considered more likely.
SHANK AND WORKERS
ARE STANDING ASIDE.
Samuel Lewis Shank, Republican nom.
inee for mayor, and his personal lieuten-
ants are not attempting to name Hart
mans successor, they declared. One OF
the original Shank managers declared
that any one whom Mr.. Lemaux selected
would be acceptable. provided he is clean
and upright They would prefer that
the msn lie an ex-service man, It was said
Mr.. Shank himself is understood to lean
toward Wilmeth. He personally was for
John T. Engelke in the primary, however,
he has publicly stated.
Deep secrecy surrounded the negoti-
atoms last night. 1t was said Che con-
ferences were held in the law Offices Of
Martin Hugg. with only Mr. Hugg and
Ernest L. Kingston. acting Republican
city chairman, meeting with Ira NJ
Holmes, chief counsel for Hartman Mr.
Holmes, however, denied that he knew
anything about the sessions He said
he was home all night and the last word
he had from Hartman was yesterday
afternoon when the nominee again de-
clared he would not resign.
The Marion County grand jury was
scheduled to take up more phases OF the
Francis Hartman case today and several
witnesses were subpoenaed to come be-
fere the inquisitorial body. Prosecutor
William F. Evans has announced that he
will endeavor to trace the liquor run
ming plot, which Frank Francis unfolded
In his confession to its widest ramifIca-
lions.
LITTLE HOPE OF TRIALS
BEFORE ELECTION DAY.
There is little probability that J.
Herbert Hartman, VIII be brought to
trial either IN Federal or Criminal
Courts before election.
Following Hartman's arraignment be-
fore Judge Albert b. Anderson in Fed
eral Court, Frederick Van Nuys, United
States district attorney, said:
1.-THE date Of the trial has not been
set; in fact, have not had the time to
even consider the matter, and may not
do so for several days. l see no reason
why 1t should be given precedence over
the cases now on the calendar"
The Federal Court calendar as now
made up, schedules criminal trials every
day from Nov 1 to Dec. 8, with the ex-
ception of Sundays and Thanksgiving
day.
As arraignment day in Criminal Court
is set for Nov T. the day before the
election, it looks as II Hartman stands
little chance Of obtaining a hearing until
long after election.

candidates what they think should b
done"
THINKS LEMAUX
MIGHT YIELD.

A leader who participated in the con-
ferences said that despite this statement
he believed that in the interests Of har-
mony Mr.. Lemaux might be wiling to
yield bit and pass up Jockey, especially
since Jockey has not appeared to be
particularly anxious to make the race.
Mr.. Jockey recently has started to re-
build his private law practice and 1t Is
known that he already leased a suite of
offices. Delbert o. Wilmeth ran third
in the primary. 1t was understood the
Hartman forces are not particularly
averse to Wilmeth, who also is more than
acceptable to the Republican organiza-
ton. Jockey likewise would be approved
by the organization, 1t was said.
In case the Hartman forces proved
adamant in the position that Hartman
would not resign unless his successor is
some man not in the primary race leaders
had a number of names 70 lay before
Chairman Lemaux for consideration.

TAKE GERMAN PAPER: WILSON
Bonds for Belgian Debt to
America.

Washington, Feb. 22.-President
Wilson is expected to recommend to
congress before he leaves office that
authority be granted for the United
States to accept German bonds to be
applied against the debt that Belgium
owes America, it was learned at the
State department.
While the United States is not COM
mitted TO any agreement, 1t was ex-
planned that an understanding was
reached at the Paris peace conference
that such recommendations should be
made to the legislative bodies of Eng
land. France and the United States 1t
was incident to the claims of Belgium
for priority in reparations and was
agreed to by the representatives of the
three great powers as a practicable
means for an immediate tightening Of
Belgium's financial burden.

FOUR YEAR OLD
GIRL ACCIDENTALLY
SHOT BY BROTHER

Mildred Erickson, the four year old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Erick-
son was accidentally shot by her bro
ther at the parents home in the town
of Hewitt. The children were play
ing with a twenty-five calibre rifle
belonging to an older brother. I'm
aware that the weapon was loaded the
boy pulled the trigger and the bullet
struck his sister between the right
eye and the bridge of the nose. The
child was rushed to the hospital but
died before reaching it.
She was born March z, 1917, at
Glandon, Wis, and is survived by her
parents and two brothers, Raymond
and Ernest. The body was taken to
Glandon and arrangements will be
made for the funeral at that place.
