GOMPERS ASKS
HARDING FOR
CONFERENCE

Washington, July 21-Samuel
Gompers, presient of tho American
Federation Of Labor, in state
ment issued today invited the gov
ernment to urge that the striking
coal miners and the striking rail-
road workers and their respective
employers inaugurate direct negotia-

I'VE invite the federal govern

workers come together" said Mr..
Gompers. "The government has
done everything except this one
logical, necessary thing
The government has threatened
a great deal. It has not talked
effectively about conferences and it
has had little or nothing to say
about the rights of the workers.
Labor calls upon the government
to talk about conferences between
employers and workers both in the
coal industry and in the railroad
strike"

OLCOTT TO
FILL: REPLY
ON TUESDAY
Although Governor Can
Demure to Petition for
Recount Such Action
Not Likely, Reported.

Despite the fact that, with the
fe-registration point eliminated
from the Charles Hall petition for
a. recount of primary election
votes, 1t would now be possible for
the governor to demurr to the pc
tition, such action will in all prob
ability not be taken, it was learn
ed here today. Persons closely as
sociated with the case indicated
chat an answer will be filed to the
remaining allegations in the Hall
petition and that this answer
probably will not be filed until
next Tuesday-the last day on
which such action may be taken.
Allegations Made.
Several allegations stand out
prominently in the Hall petition,
as follows:
That in certain precincts more
votes were counted for Olcott than
were cast.
That large number of votes
for Hall were rejected.
That persons registered as dem
ocrats and Independents were per-
nitted to vote the republican tick
ct.
That votes were enormously
counted in excess of the number
IF ballots cast.
That democrats wrote Olcott's
name on democrat ballots and that
the boards placed their votes to
the governors credit.
That election boards refused to
allow Hall challengers to be pres
snt during the canvassing of
votes.
Attorneys for the governor de-
,Iined to indicate what the nature
IF their answer will be in regard
10 any of these points.
The decision of Judges Percy |
Kelly and George Bingham yes

held that a voter may change his
party affiliations at the polls. was
held here to be an important vic
.ory for the governor. Their de-
:ison followed argument on a mo-
ion. filed by Olcott's attorneys,

on election day.
In view of the fact that the Hall
action must show definite cause

Jared that a large job looms for

PRESIDENT TO

CONFERENCE:
Next Move in Railroad
Strike is Full Discus
sion of Questions at Is
sue Gloomy Prospect.

Washington, July 21.-(By AS
ISOLATED Press. president Hard
ing was said by administration ad-
visers who conferred with him to-
day, to contemplate as his next
move in the railroad strike the
summoning to Washington of
Chairman Hooper of the railroad
labor board for full discussion
of the questions at issue between
empolyes and executives.
New Move Proposed.
The probability of new move
will be revealed today after the
president had been informed by
Chairman Cummins and Senators
Watson of Indiana and Kellogg of
Minnesota of the senate interstate
commerce committee that the
three principal points at issue in
the strike were restoration of the
seniority and of pension rights or
the strikers and setting up ma
tional board of adjustment as pro-
vided in the transportation act
now In force.
The latter. was received as a
new factor by the president who
was said to have been unadvised
that this was strong point at
issue. Chairman Hooper, it was
said, had not informed the presi-
dent that the national board ques-
tion was prominently involved,
although labor leaders have in
formed senators that it was being
pressed as a condition precedent
to return of the strikers to work.
On this question the executives
were reported to be adamant.
Conference Proposed.
On leaving the White House the
senator's said they had merely
made report 70 the president

.ure conferences probably" would
)e held but 1t was not stated who
would participate.
Senator Cummins seemed rather
pessimistic but Senator Watson
vas in an optimistic mood, de-
laring he believed some way
would be found to end the strike.
The early conference between
he president and the senators was
ranged, it was thought, so that
dr. Harding could lay the matter
,efore the cabinet at its meeting
oday.
Settlement Remote.
A settlement of the strike of
ailway shopmen appeared more
emote than ever today following

Last Wednesday, All Saints Day,
was appropriately observed in this
city. At the Catholic church there
was services at a. m. and 9 a. M,
both of which were largely attended
by the faithful. At o'clock in the
afternoon there was the blessing Of
the graves in the Catholic cemetery,
at which Rev. C. M. Chambon, pastor
of the Catholic church, officiated in
the presence of a large number of
people. During the entire day the
cemeteries were filled with people,
who went there to lay flowers upon
the graves. and offer up prayers for
the souls of the dead. A heavy rain
fell early in the morning but this did
not interfere with any of the ser
vices. The day being legal holiday
the banks and public offices and all
schools were closed. Thursday morn
ing at 80 o'clock, there was a sol
emn requiem mass at the Catholic
church for souls of the departed par
ishioners. This service also was
largely attended.
