ALL HANDS AGREE UNANIMOUS
LY ON NEXT SATURDAY AS
THE DATE.
DEADLOCK is PREDICTED
Long WrangIe Between House and
Senate conferees Likely, With
Result That Measure viii Go
Over Until Next Session.

Washington.-A final vote will bt
taken on the Fordney-McCumber tar
iff bill in the senate at 4 o'clock il
the afternoon of August 10. An unani
nous consent agreement to that ef
feet was accepted
Throughout the day leaders on both
sides held series of conferences
seeking to dispose of tariff revision
and send the pending measure to con.
ference. Eventually success was
achieved and the conclusions reached
became a formal matter of record.
After the measure is reported to the
senate proper no senator may speak
more than once and not longer than
minutes upon any reserved amend.
ment, or one offered, or any pending
motion.
1t was made part Of the agreement
that Senator Harreld, republican, Ok.
lahoma, might speak for one hour
Wednesday morning, the senate meet
ing at 10 o'clock for that purpose. Hef
lin, democrat, objected to this discrim
ination and unanimous consent was
given outside the agreement. Harreld
will discuss his amendment relating
to the duties on petroleum.
Since April 20 there have been 1O4
working days devoted 10 consideration
OF the tariff measure. During that pc
riod there has been but one adjourn
ment OF the senate, which was occa
stoned by the death of Senator Crow
The tariff bill will be hastened tc
conference. There is wide diversity Oh
opinion as to the time necessary fol
adjusting the differences The mum.
Der Of amendments added by the sen,
ate will approximate 5000.
Nearly all the democratic and 8
number of republican leaders predict
the tariff bill will be deadlocked IL
conference until the next session Of
which begins December 4. II
Is claimed this is desired by the re.
publican politicians who are epprehen
sive of the evil effect the new law
would have in the November cleo
tions. This is denied by the republi
can leaders but the opinion remains
that the measure will not become q
law until next winter.

washington. - Railroad executives
who have represented associates IL
negotiating with President HARDING
and railroad labor organization heads
for q compromise settlement Of the
railroad strike, have left Washington
convinced that the strike would be
fought out to finish.
The executives further indicated
that they expected the government
would not attempt further compro
mise and made public the text OF
their answer to President Harding 8
final settlement proposal.
Union leaders, however, declared
that compromise efforts would still be
continued. Meanwhile, they withheld
the response of the striking shop
mems settlement offers and also a
statement of the policy which other
unions intended to pursue.
There was no statement from ad-
ministration sources as to any further
course intended.
All the heads of the railroad labor
organizations remained in Washing
ton. Officers of the four brother
hoods, members Of which are not on
strike, declared themselves a commit
tee Of mediation, endeavoring to deal
with the government and the railroad
arrangements in behalf of the eight
unions which have ordered strikes.
L. E. Sheppard, president of the Or
der of Conductors, indicated late to-
day that they intended to remain,
acting in that capacity, until Con-
gress gets back into session.
All of the rail executives went
back to the White House, spent an
hour with President Harding, and
then left the city. The union chiefs
went into conference by themselves,
and we're informed during it by Sec
rotary Hoover of the action of the
executives. They had prepared to
make public later statements indicat-
ing a complete break with the execu-
tives and the government, but sup
pressed all these at the instance of
Mr.. Sheppard.
The railroads willing to give re-em-
plCyment to all striking employees as
given out by the executives spokes-
men include the Santa Fe, Baltimore
& Ohio Chesapeake & Ohio, Illinois
Central, Norfolk & Western, St. Louis

Railroads willing to restore the jobs
of only those strikers for whom they

Aboard the Steamship Adriatic, off

ut came like roar of thunder.
The captain of the ship, Hugh q.
David, is a strict disciplinarian, and
this showed when the performed great
work. He had the fire in the hold
under control and the ship again on
her way few hours after the explo-
sion.
"The discipline, the courtesy Of Al
the Officers was admirable, and the
members of the crew were true to the
best traditions of seamanshlp.
THE explosion and the attending
flash awakened me; l landed on deck
to find scores before me, and what
we saw was complimentary to human
nature. It was q tense time, there
was a solemnity, seriousness in the
air, quietness OF speech, a hush Of
expectancy and look of faith In the
face, but no whimpering, no sniveIing.
no Mysteries, no wailing, no word Of
complaint.
Then, while the boat was Stin
drifting and the pumps plugging awAy.
from out Of the shadows came ths
voice Of woman, who said:
capt. David will pull u thruu~A
all right
"A man next to her repeated n
Inen some one else took 1t up, ana
so 1t went from lip to lip, down the
line, and around the deck:

fornia felt the full impact of the
strike OF railroad shopmen which
had spread on the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe lines centering here to
include members Of the big Four"
brotherhoods, engineers, firemen, con.
ductors and brakemen, and had prac-
tically tied up Santa Fe passenger
transportation work and retarded the
handling of freight.
Twelve transcontinetal tranis
were marooned at desert points,
where from 1900 to $500 passengers
waited for their journeys to be re-

guards, Objectionable to brotherhood
men, had been removed.

had walked out were received, but
there was no effect visible ON the

Efforts were being made by the
Santa Fe to move its stalled trains
out Of the desert, where a high tenn
perature and limited accommodations
added to the irritability Of the pas
sengers. Two or three trains halted
at Barstow Thursday night were re-
ported to have been backed to Nee
dies.

tice were added today to the forces

the temperature there was 100 de-
grees today, and there was suffering
among passengers marooned by the
strike. Most of the passengers slept
in the open last night.
Efforts OF the Santa Fe to return
to Los Angeles as many as possible
OF the passenger trains stalled be-
tween this city and Needles resulted
in the arrival early tonight Of four,
filled to capacity. They had left Los
Angeles yesterday.
Local heads of the Big Four broth
erhoods have taken no action toward
ordering their members back to
work.
