TRAINMEN TO WORK
ON PENNSYLVANIA
Fifteen Thousand Will Not Strike,
Says Chairman Of Broth
erhood.

Philadelphia, Oct. 18.-C. E. Mus
ser, chairman of the Brotherhood Of
Railroad Trainmen of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad said tonight that 49,
900 trainmen of the Pennsylvania
would refuse to obey the order for
a general railroad strike and would
continue to work "if the road oper-
ates trains" The organization of
which he is head recently voted
against a strike.
The fight of the union should be
with the labor board, not with the
Pennsylvania, said Mr.. Musser. "The
railroad has been fair in it's dealings
with our men and has lived up to its
agreements. We have no quarre;: wi !,
the management"
Reports that the Pennsylvania was
making secret agreements with its
employees and had obtained pledges
not to strike from a large percentage
could not be confirmed.
H. E. Core, general chairman of
the locomotive engineers and fire.
men, denied that the Pennsylvania
railroad was shifted from the first to
the fourth group, in the strike order
because of any fear it's men would
not obey. He said it was the broth
erhoods' policy to start the walkout
where there is the most disagree
ment.

Picturesque Indian Service

The simple words of the burial rit-

ers from war mothers of America
and England were laid in place. For
the Indians of America Chief Plenty
Coos called upon the Great Spirit of
the Red Men with gesture and chant
and tribal tongue that the dead
should not have died in vain and that
war might end and peace be pur-
chased by such blood as his. Upon
the casket he laid the coup stick Of
his tribal office and the feathered
war bonnet from his own head.
Then the casket with its weight of
honors was lowered into the crypt.
The guns doomed for the dead, taps
sounded and the guns roared out
again in the national salute. He was
home, the unknown, to sleep forever
among his own.
