Chicago, Sept. So. ). Deputy

notice OF leaders of the striking rail
road shOpmen of the issuance of the
Daugherty injunction in Federal
Court here.
AS Bert NJ Jewell. w H. Johnston,
and Martin Ryan, officials directing
the strike, stepped from a Baltimore
and Ohio train from the east, Deputy
John OrrOff, served the writ.
The strike leaders after week m
hiding returned to Chicago today to
carry on peace negotiation with East
ern railway executives. None of the
union leaders would discuss the pros
poets of peace.
New York. Sept S.-Bert NJ Jewell,
head of the striking shopmen, after
conferences with railroad executives.
has agreed to plan for settlement OF
the rail strike on eight or ten roads,

Agency today.

Washington. Sept. S.-With strike
developments at a StaudStill in Wash
lngton. eyes of administration officials
turned today to Atlantic City where
ne executive council of the American
Federation of Labor is gathering, and
toward Chicago where fresh peace
moves are reported.
There is some hope here that par
tial settlement of the rail strike on
q compromise basis giving strikers
practically unimpaired seniority
rights. may come out of the visit to
Chicago OF Daniel Willard. president
of the Baltimore and Ohio. Willard,
who has long been willing TO settle
with the strikers himself, is under
-cod TO be i'm Chicago in an effort to
induce other individual, rail executives
TO make separate peace.
He carried TO Chicago, it is believed
here. a definite compromise plan
worked out during secret conferences
at Baltimore, between Willard ana
shopmen'S representatives.

Federal Judge WilkerSon TO make

nov general is willing that tn tenn

is now studying the matter TO see how
