ment of the Railway
Controversy

Z CHICAGO. July 9.-Union officials and
observers of the trend of affairs in the
railway labor situation today regarded
the action OF the Pennsylvania railway
in openly declaring 1t would conduct
its own negotiations with its employees
on an open shop" basis, is presenting
serious obstacle TO the harmonious
settlement of the railway controversy
Attempts are being made by officials
of the various railway labor organiza-
tions to bring about conference with the
railway heads between now and sept. l,
at which definite agreement as to work
sng rules and conditions will be reached.
The unions have made acceptance of the
wage cut, which became effective July
1, contingent upon a satisfactory out
come of these conferences.
Refusal of the Pennsylvania to con-
slider itself bound by any rules or orders
Of the United States railway labor board
or the federated shop crafts, It is
feared. will cause other roads to adopt
frmer stand agsinsi bargaining with
the labor organizations.
The Pennsylvania made clear its atti-
tude when representatives OF the shop
crafts on the Pennsylvania charged be
fore the United States railway labor
board that rules Of the board were be
ing violated by that road. r. T. Whiter,
counsel for the Pennsylvania, replied by
criticising. openly, several rulings Of the
board and by declaring, we will con-
duct cur negotiations IN our own way.

More than half the enlisted men Of this
port have applied for discharge under
provision of the army appropriations bill.
Mai. A. G. Upton, corps adjutant, de-
clared in an interview here today.
Tt is not the rockies who just en-
listed I'm the service who are applying
for discharges" Upton said. 1T is the
men who have had from fifteen to TWEEN
ty years service. who have become tired
Of the Army because OF the condition II
is now IN.
The older men do not want to sta Y
in the service with all the kids as they
are called, who are stirring up unrest
simply because they are not used 10 the
army life.
I'VE will not start discharging until
the latter part of the month, when we
will have applications from the entire
corps, which is comprised Of the States
OF Indiana, Ohio. Kentucky and West
Virginia. AS coon rs we have all the
applications We can investigate and, start

One hundred ninety six Of the 357 men
stationed here hHye applied for dis

Of 10000 men, Upton said. The per
sonnel is much lower than the pre-war
strength of this post.
The 9Th Corps now has approximately
10000 men. They are scattered through
out the corps area.
We have only enough men at this fort
now to keep up police and routine work, s.

POLITICS BACK
OF SMALL FIGHT
Grand Jury to Investigate
Record of Governor.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. July 0.-The
bitterest factional political fight In
Illinois history between state officials
was on I'm full force today.
The Sancamon County grand jury viii
meet on Monday to investigate charges
that Governor Len Small and Lieut.. Gov.
Fred E. Streling withheld public money
while occupying the office Of State
treasurer.
Attorney General Edward J. Brundage
at whose direction the grand jury was
summoned, has been fighting with the
Small administration ever since the gov
ornor took office. Brundage was the
candidate for attorney general on the
Oglesby ticket which opposed Small at
the primaries last year. Brundage was
one Of the few successful candidates on
the Oglesby ticket.
In retaliation there were reports today
the governor had ordered an investiga-
ton Of the Brundage pay rolls
The political quarrel was brought to
the present critical point when Governor
Small vetoed a large appropriation which
would have authorized Brundage to en-
ploy large number Of prohibition
officials.
