union LEADERS
CALL OFF STRIKE
Brotherhood Chiefs Withdraw
Previous UItimatum
For WaIkout
NO PUBLIC SYMPATHY

Chicago, Oct. 27.-The railroad
strike, scheduled for Oct. 80, was
averted tonight when the leaders of
the Trainmen, Conductors, Engineers,
Switchmen and Firemen at a joint
meeting resolved to withdraw author
ization of walkout. Officers Of the
telegraphers organization will take
similar action.
The vote calling off the strike was
by organizations. According to the
language of the resolution the strike
was declared mot effective"
There was lengthy argument be-
fore final decision was reached.
L. A. Shepherd, of the Order of
Railway Conductors, said that the
union had decided to call off the strike
because of growing public opinion
that the strike would be against the
government and not against the rail
roads. 1t was evident, he said, that
the CENTRE Warrington administration
was opposed to us and that we had
little chance to gain our object. We
called the strike to gain certain rights
for the men. 1t soon became evident
that the roads were sending out prop
uganda that it was q strike against
the labor board and the government
The full force of the government wa.
TO be brought against us if we walked
out. Considering these facts there
was nothing to do but annul the strike
order.
The announcement was made by w
G. Lee to dozens of newspaper mel
on the lower floor of the building.
"The strike is OFF, boys" he said
AS the other committeeman came
down they merely said in reply t
questions:
"It is all settled.

the entire route will be made.
The movement received the indorse-
ment of the board of directors yester-
day because the proposed road would
give an all-year route over Hagerman
heavy SHOWS. By using the Ivanhoe-
Busk tunnel, through which the Mid
land operated through Hagerman pass,
the suspension of traffic in the winter
and the hong haul over Battle noun
tain would be eliminated.
The route, passing through Buena
Vista and Leadville, and terminating
in Glenwood Springs, would be con-
verified into highway with low grades,
year-round accessibility at a compar-
atively small cost, it is believed. The
cost of purchasing the right-of- way
would not exceed $4,000, according to
estimates. Already 80 miles of the
abandoned roadbed east of Glenwood
Springs are in use as a motor high.

The chamber Of commerce will petit
ton the city council to include in the
budget a 6 mill levy to cover appro-
piatrons for advertising Colorado

GIenwood Boy Seriously and
Perhaps Fatally Injured
Tuesday Evening
CHANCES VERY ScANT

While playing with number Of
boys on the Midland bridge at point
just west of the Roaring Fork river
on Thursday evening of this week,
Avery, thirteen-year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. G. H. Oberly, fell between
the timbers and landed head first
among the rocks thirty feet below,
and sustained injuries which, it il
feared, will prove fatal.
Stories of the affair were gathered
from the playmates of the injured
boy and, while these do not agree in
all particulars, it is generally agreed
that some of the boys, including
Avery, were racing across the high
bridge. Although some of the boys
noted the absence Of Avery, they
thought him hiding among the timbers.
Continued absence caused them to in
vestigate and, as they looked below
the bridge, they saw the mangled
body of their playmate where it lay
torn and bleeding among the bouiders
and Jagged rocks thirty feet below
them 4
The boys called for assistance and
men rushed to the scene and members
of the Glenwood football squad who
were practicing in the ball park .
short distance away, hurried to the
place, and ,on an improvised stretcher,
carried the boy to an auto and took
him to the sanitarium where DR.. G..
\. Hopkins dressed his injuries. Fol-
I lowing his examination, DR.. Hopkins
stated that the boy had suffered n
fracture of the skull in the forehead
n fracture ON the side of the head
above the ear, his face was badly
bruised and cut and one arm was
broken. He relieved the pressure in
the fracture in the forehead, but the
boy was unable to Withstand efforts
to relieve the other pressure and this
was delayed until he gained strength.
Since the accident, the boy has lain
in a semi-conscious condition and it
is very doubtful if he receivers from
his injuries.
1t is stated the boys had been
warned and urged to stay away from
the bridge, but, after leaving school
on Thursday evening they ignored the
warning and endangered their lives by
