RAILROAD WAGE:

FaIIacieS" BY Expert.

Washington, Nov. 26.-Railroad
wage figures supplied the inter-
state commerce commission by rail-
way executives were BRANDED as
statistical fallacies," by F. j.
Warne. economist for the railroad
brotherhoods, before the senate in
state commerce committee today.
He said some of the data was un-
true and much misleading. High
salaries of general officers and
other executives were included in
the pay rolls and in one instance
the salary of 100000 of one high
official was included with wages or
sixty-seven employees whose an
nual pay averaged $500. Warne
charged. AS a result executives
salaries were increased further TO
increase the averages" he said. .
Mr.. Warne stated that there had
been an increase of $50, 100000 in
the annual pay of general and di-
vision officers in the last five
years, while the number Of these
officers increased only from l5,OOo
to $4,000. The effect, he added:
was to show an increase in annual
wages paid to the extent of $Ss,-
100000 more than has actually
been disbursed to the employees.

SKELETON FOUND MAY

Phoenix, Ariz., Nov. 26.--ldentt-
fication of bones found near Buck

few days ago, as the skeleton of j.
J. knight, wealthy resident OF
Wichita Falls, Tex, has been made

office said the teeth in the skull
corresponded with those of Knight
as described in a telegram from
Wichita Falls.
A local pathological laboratory
is examining the bones in an at
tempt to complete the Identified
ton by establishing the similarity
of fractures, the announcement
said.
Knight was last seen in Buckeys

empty cartridge from a .3S auto
matte revolver was found on the
porch.
There is absolutely no motive
that can be advanced by friends
Of the murdered couple for the
murder. Mr.. and Mrs. Blackwell
had been residents OF Gallup for
nearly ten years. They had been
married about twelve years and
had no children and lived in
house alone.
J. w. Blackwell, Sir, father Of
the murdered man, is a resident of
Gallup, living in another part of
town. He knew nothing of the
crime until informed of 1t this
morning by friends.
One theory advanced is that rob.
berry may have been the motive
for the crime because Mrs. Black
we'll sometimes wore some small
diamonds. 1t is possible that rob-
bers were in the act of breaking
into the house and that they were
surprised by the approach Of the
couple. Several persons passed
the house about that time of the
evening in automobiles and one
person claims that he saw man
running away from the house. The
location of the house is such tina.
the front porch Is almost entirely
hidden from view by a bannister
and a high fence between 1t and
the street. so that unless some one
entered the pOrrh tha bodies cOllid
not have been seen.
The bodies were removed to the
local undertaking parlors.

This conference has marked a

that in America, as in other coun-
tres, public opinion has found its
new way to power and is affecting
the course of statesmen who once
could settle everything behind

1--WE do not agree with these
people who have little faith in the
outcome of this conference, who
believe that nations having been
selfish and having settled their dis
putes by war, must therefore con-
tinue to do so. These people are
filled with suspicious and call for
more armaments and increasing
preparations for war, begetting a
spirit Of fear and distrust.

great war has taught MS the need
of peace and that no nation can
stand by itself. We believe that II

here this morning by friends who

were found on the front porch.
Each had received one shot
through the breast which evidently
had caused instant death In both
cases. There was absolutely no

cealed himself on the front porch
and shot them as they were about
to enter their home. Mr.. Black

held the house key clutched in one
hand and from this it is believed
that he was just in the act Of un-
locking the front door when he
was shot.
1t is believed that the incident
took place about 10 o'clock Friday
nlSnC, as SeNeTdl persons WHO I'VE
in that vicinity or were In that
part of town heard two shots fired
in rapid succession at about thai
time of the evening. The doors of
the house were securely locked
this morning.

was in the habit of riding each
morning with a friend who also
worked at that place, Clarence r.
