Operators Confer
With StevedOres on
Readjusted Wages
Proposals Slightly Different,
With Workers Asking
Suggested Cut Be 8 In
stead of Is Cents an Hour

No agreement was reached yesterday
between representatives. of all steam
ship lines employing stevedpres and the
longshoremen's union. A conference
was held at headquarters of the
stevedores' union, SO Pearl Street.
Frederick Toppin, vice-president of the
international Mercantile Marine Com
pany, presided.
The employers offered to pay the
longshoremen IS cents an hour straight
time, and 81 an hour overtime, the day
tosconsist of nine hours. The steve
dores opposed this offer, demanding
70 cents an hour straight time and
Sl.oS an hour overtime, with an eight
hour day. The scale under an agree
ment, expiring September 80, is 80
cents an hour for day work and S1.20
at night.
1t was made clear that steamship
companies do not propose to operate
out the Shipping Boards policy of no
times, however, when it will be neces-
sary to handle a passenger ship at
night to remove or load mail or
baggage, but on all freight ships it has
been determined that there shall be
no extra hours.
Mr.. Toppin announced another meet
ing would be held to decide the issue.
There is little likelihood of a strike, ac-
cording to those best informed.
The steamship men were represented
by Mr.. Toppin, r. H. Blake, Cunard
Line; Oakley Wood, Barber & Co., and
Mr.. Holmes, of Furness, Witty & Co.
The union was represented by Captain
Blanchard and John Brady

The Conference on
Limitation of Armament

From The Trtbune's Washina ton Bureau
WASHINGTON, Sept. Z. - "The
proper and official term is the Con-
ference on the Limitation of Arma-
ment,", Secretary of State Hughes in
formed newspapermen at the press
conference Today when he good ma
turedly chided the writer's for using
such phrases as "the disarmament con-
terence in referring to the forthcom-
ing session Of the powers in Washing
ton.
"You ought to know better than to
refer to the coming conference as
the disarmament conference thereby
giving an entirely erroneous idea of
the real purpose of the meeting" Sec
rotary Hughes said. "The proper and
official term" he added, as the Con-
ference on the Limitation of Armament.
an entirely different and distinct sub
ect
"In the official invitations forwarded
to the powers, the forthcoming meeting
was referred to as the Conference on
the Limitation Of Armament, in connec-
ton with which Pacific and Far East
ern questions are to be discussed"
The New York Tribune, in a recent
editorial called attention to the erro-
neous description applied to the con-
terence by writer's, and set forth that
the official term made no mention of
disarmament" but on The contrary
deferred solely to Limitation Ct ~rma.-
ment."

CHICAGO, Sept. TN drastic YER
dict on the building trades situation,
which elected praise from employers
and condemnation from labor chiefs,
but which may result in the employ
ment of more than $4,000 idle men,
Judge Lands to-day reduced wages in
the industry from 10 to 80 per cent and
inaugurated momentous changes in
union working rules.
The decision came at the end of
three weeks Of discussion before the
Judge, as arbiter, by representatives. of
builders, contractors and the various
trades involved. If accepted by both
sides it is expected to result in con-
struction contracts for more than $780,
100000 worth of buildings.
If protested, as seemed possible from
the comments Of some Of the union
men affected, it is predicted that an
even worse middle than the deadlock
of the last six months will ensue.
Opens Territory to Outsiders
Among the more important points
in the award are the opening Of the
Chicago territory and the use by union
workers of both union and non-union
made building materials, the prohibi-
ton of strikes and lock-outs, an invita-
ton to all contractors and employers
not members of the builders associa-
tions to partake in the benefits of the
award by the payment of the same fees
nf MI
tions, prevention of discrimination
against any employer, whether party
to the agreement or not; prohibition
of restrictions on the amount of work
any one man might do and the settling
of the overtime question.
The award trims the building labor
ers from the fiat rate Of 81 an hour
down to AN cents an hour for the ex-
cavating laborers, with varying rates
up to 1874 cents for laborers assisting
plasterers.
The skilled crafts were cut from
$125 an hour down to 1924 cents an
hour for stone planer men and drain
layers to 95 cents an hour for plumbers
and to $1.10 an hour for bricklayers,
electricians and certain classes of hoist
ing engineers.
Stone Carvers Escape Cut
OHiy one CIdlL was lelI dC 91.z0 an
hour-the stone carvers, whose expert
ness in chiseling intricate designs on
stone places them, it is said, above the
others The tile layers or fire proofers
we're granted $1.12h an hour.
No wage is announced for the car
penters, the painters, sheet metal
workers, elevator constructors, GLACIERS
or fixture hangers. All of these were
originally in the wage controversy, but
withdrew following a clash over Judge
Landis's refusal to be a party to GER
tain clauses in their agreements. At
dis advised certain of the union off
Gals to hire a lawyer to keep them
out of trouble, because he saw viola
lions of Federal and state laws in some
of the agreements.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Sept. r.
Proceedings to fix responsibility for re-
cent disturbances in the West Virginia
coal fields have been begun here by
both state and Federal authorities.
1t is understood that the findings of
the Federal investigators will be SUBJ
mitted to Attorney General Daugher1y
and that he will determine the future
course Of the government.
Reports received, both at military
headquarters and the office of Governor
Morgan, indicate unbroken quiet to-day
throughout the recently agitated area
breaks, which resulted directly in the
killing of eleven men and the wound
ing of several others, word was re-
ceived that groups of men who caused
the trouble had broken up and that
their members had returned to work
in such numbers that many mines
which were closed down for days have
been able to resume operations.
Dispatches received through mill
tary channels by Brigadier General
H. H. Bandholtz, in command Of United
States forces sent here to quell the
disturbances, were that Federal patrols
were securing the vicinity of Spruce
Fork Ridge, where large part of last
weeks firing took place, and that no
armed men were in evidence in the
Kanawha- Boone-Logan district.

Drop in Living Costs;
Scale Exceeds Shipyards

WASHINGTON, Sept. T. The new
navy wage scale, decreasing by 10 to
20 per cent the pay Of about $4,000
civilian employees, was approved by
Secretary DENLY to-day.
In general the new scale, which be-
comes effective September Is, is made
uniform for similar work in ali navy
yards. According to the report of the
Departmental Wage Board of Review
the revised schedules will be four cents
an hour less than prevailing wages for
railroad trades and five cents an hour
higher than those in the shipbuilding
trades. The board said the wages rec
commended are 45 per cent higher than
pre-war scales and estimates the cost
of living at 80 per cent higher than
in 1913.
Probation Period Provided
The decreases broadly are 13 to ID
per cent for artisans, 10 per cent for
technical employees, 15 per cent for
clerks and supervisors and 20 per cent
for certain other of the supervisory
positions.
A new plan for payment and CLASH
fication of mechanics provides for one
general grade of the first class, speci-
Tying that upon employment men shall
serve probation period Of six months
prior to reaching the highest classified
ton of their trade. Machinists will
hold this first grade rating during
efficient performance and will be sub
ject to discharge upon failure to main
tain the established standard.
The board also recommended that
"73 cents an hour be fixed as a fair
and just rate Of pay for the basic
trades" and that the present five day
week be temporarily continued until
the general unemployment is relieved
Three Factors in Wage Decline
"The decrease in wages is due to
three causes" the report said. "(a)
Decrease in living costs amounting to
1877 per cent according to DEPARTING mt
of Labor figures; OBJ the general in
dustrial depression in the country
which may we'll be expected to be
but phase of the readjustment from
war to pre-war conditions that is now
perhaps at it's most acute state; (c) to
the treatment by certain number OF
employers of labor purely as a COM
modify to be obtained at the cheapest
possible rate"
The report contains several recon-
mendations concerning working con-
ditions in the yards, cost account
ing and efficiency records. The awards
approved to-day would be effective for
one year.

% Hurt When Motor Bus
Runs Wild Down Hill

ORANGE, N. j., Sept. s.--A motor
bus, it's brake Innings burned out, ran
wild down Mount Pleasant Avenue this
evening, one of the steepest hills in the
Orange Mountains and capsized at the
bottom of the slope, injuring twenty
eight of its thirty occupants, two of
them so severely that they may die.
Irving Margolis, of Elizabeth, driver
of the bus, managed to keep his UNI
wieldy vehicle in the winding mountain
road until it reached an abrupt turn
at the foot of the hill. There it hit a
fence and rolled over. Physicians
were called from all the communities
in the vicinity and private motor cars
and fire apparatus were pressed into
service to take the victims to hospitals.
George Saxton and Kyran Brennan,
of Elizabeth, are the most seriously in
jured. Both have fractures of the skull
and are at Memorial Hospital. Most Of
the passengers in the bus were mem
bers of the State Patrolmen's Benevo-
lent Association, which is holding its
convention here.
