RAIL STRIKE FARLEY FAILS;
BOTH SIDES REFUSE TO YIELD:
CONFEREES LEAVE THE CITY
Mediation of Big -Four Chiefs
Does Not Bring Peace in
Shopmen'S Strike After
Weeks Effort.
Executives Final Offer to
Place Strikers Next to Men
Who Stuck Rejected; Old
Rights Demanded.

Efforts to settle the strike of the
railway shopmen failed at the final
conference between a committee of
the railway executives and the chiefs
Of the five railway brotherhood unions
acting as mediators to-day.
The .1rike will so on with increased
bitterness on both hdes. The leaders Of
the striking shopmen and other crafts
in railroad employment in sympathy
were jubilant when the news reached
their headquarters at the Hotel Wood
stock ttat the negotiations looking to
settlement had ended in deadlock.
Immediately kilograms were sent to
every strike leader in the various dis
tricts all over the United States, ask
ing that efforts to win be redoubled.
The next step of the strikers Will
be to try to persuade the maintenance
of way union to declare a strike,
which has already been authorized by
a vote of the membership.
The railroad executives also took
steps to carry on the fight with re-
newed viGor. Employment agencies
will be opened in every city OF mn
portance in the country and drive
will be made for strikebreakers.
The deadlock arose over the quos-
ton of seniority. The strikers were
willing to return to work at the wages
fixed by the Labor Board with their
pension rights unimpaired and THIS
was agreed to by the executives. BUT
the strikers would note onsent TO a
proposition advanced by the eeNcu-
tives that the question of seniority OF
the men who walked out be left TO a
conference between the five heads OF
the train and cuginemen's brother
moods and committee of five railroad
Presidents or their representatives.
The trikers insisted upn restora-
ton of seniority rights as they stood
on June 30, the day before the strike
was declared. UnimpOrtant modlhca-
tions of this stand did not appeal to
the railway executives and the nc
gotiations progressed steadily toward
an unsatisfactory finish.
Failure, as n matter of fact, was
expected because yesterdays con-
ferences had indicated die-hard at
titude on both sides. However, War
rem s, Stone of the Brotherhood OF
Locomotive Engineers. and his col
leagues on the committee Of volunteer
mcdiators, made last desperate at
tempt to end the strike this morning.
They got the last limit OF conces-
sion from the leaders of the strikers
at the Hotel Woodstock, in Il CON
ference right after breakfast, Then
they went to the Yale Club where
they met the five railroad Presidents,
who had been empowered to act. The

THOUSANDS VIEW
COLLINS IN STATE
IN DUBLIN CITY HALL
Cosgrave, Acting President,
and Mulcahy, Command
ing the Army.

DUBLIN, Aug. 25 (Associated
Press) The body of Michael Collins
lay on it's bier in Dublin in City Hall
o-day. while sorrowing Irishmen Of
all classes and creeds filed past for
last look at the features set in the
mien of determined defiance with
which the Free State Commander in
Chief faced his foes to the end.
The nag covered coffin, which ar
rived from Cork yesterday, was first
removed to st. Vincent's Hospital,
where Arthur Griffith died so recently,
and then, last night, to the City Hall,
where the body will lie in state until
Sunday. The funeral has been set for
Monday morning, with solemn high
requiem mass in the Pro- Cathedral,
and interment in Glasnevin Cemetery.
Scenes OF poignant grief were eT-
denced as thousands of admirers
viewed the body, resting beneath the
statue of O'Connell. The lid of the
coffin was removed early this morn
ing, revealing the figure of the dead
General, bathed in the fitful light Of
six tapers that had been placed with
a crucif1X at his head. The hall was
heavily draped in black, accentuating
the tragic picture of the steady stream
of mourners.
1t has been announced that the
Government will be continued along
the exact lines laid down by Collins
and Griffith, and those left in charge,
William Cosgrave and Richard Null
cahy, have expressed their determi-
nation TO see the Free State for which
the two lost leaders worked so In
defatigably set on a firm foundation.
Mulcahy succeeds Collins as Com
mander in Chief of the National
Army and Cosgrave is acting as head
of the Government. What actual
changes will be made in the Ministry
is unknown until the Dali Ereann
| session,
The postponed meeting of the Dali
will be held Sept, instead OF Sept q
as previously announced.
Meanwhile word comes from Cork
that Tom Hales, who directed the
ambuscade near Bandon in which Col
Inns was killed and who accepts re-
sponsibiity for the Generals death
has abandoned the rebel cause, offer r.
| ing his services to the Free state. II
is th0ught this act of ContritlOn may
be emuated by others engaged in the
Iirregulurs' campaign of guerilla wal
fare.
There is a disposition on the part OF
the Free State Government to refuse
l the offer.

The patrons OF the place showed
strong indignation. Some were un-

Mentally and Sentimental
ly Same Age, He
Declares.

Los ANGELES, Aug. 25.-AIrs.
Marie c. Steinway, widow of Charles
IL. Steinway, New York piano manu-
facturer, and Capt. f. l.. Lefevre,
World War veteran, were married at
Santa Barbara a week ago to-day
according to a story published here.
Their marriage, which was per-
formed in the Santa Barbara Mission
with the old Jesuit ritual. was said to
have followed IA romance. of several
years. The bride came to California
for her health several months ago and
has been living at Altedena, near
Pasadena.
Capt. Lefevre said he expected to
be appointed Military Inspector at u
Pasadena Military Academy and that
he and his bride will remain in this
State for a year or two. He was
quoted as declaring:
The disparity in our ages is
thing that neither of us has thought
of. Mentally and sentimentally we
are the same age. Love Is as old as
the world and as young as the morn
ing dew. We love each other; we are
very happy"
Charles II. Steinway, President Of
the Steinway Piano Company for
many years, died in this city in 1919.
He was married In 1885 TO Miss Marie
Mertens, the daughter of William
Mertens of No. 16 West SSth Street.
and they had two children. The stein
ways were notable entertainers In the
musical and artistic set In New York
and Paris. The brilliancy of their
celebration of the twentieth annivers-
airy of their marriage in Steinway
Hall in 1908 was widely commented
upon,
The will of Mr. Stenway left his
widow a life interest In a trust fund
of S19S, 900 out of an estate appraised
in May, 1921, in this state, as SGlS,-

CHAPTER XIV.

TT was characteristic Of Terry that
she hesitated not moment in
going to Jason Smithers with
her. complaint against Haines. Boil
ing over with indignation and a
sense Of outrage, she felt that she
hated the man and hoped vindic-
lively that his master would make
him smart for his intolerable i'm,
pertinence.
How had he dared, she demanded
furiously Of herself, to speak to her
SOTO treat her as though he was
her equal? She could feel the touch
Of his strong hands upon her shoul-
ders still as she precipitated her
self into Mr.. Smithers's presence,
and shrugged them violently, dis.
gustedly, as II to rid herself of 1t.
Lee was with her husband, and
listened, shocked and bewildered,
to her step-sister's storm Of words.
But the old man himself heard her
with unruffled equanimity.
He was silent for moment or
two when she had finished. Lee,
watching him a little anxiously,
could make nothing whatever OF his
expression, yet she somehow felt
that inwardly he was not so COM

CHAPTER XVI.

TT was perhaps not surprising that
Lee found her role as hostess OF
q large house-party more diff
cult than at first she had imagined
It would be. Her guests, in the
main, were we'll chosen. and ap-
peared to be enjoying themselves.
But Roland Gish's presence and
Terry's defiant attitude had struck
q jarring note.
Lee was disturbed, despite her
outward serene composure. Nor, 1t
seemed to her, did the atmosphere
grow clearer as time went on. OF
necessity, Terry had obeyed her
hosts desire in respect to her rides
with Gish, nevertheless she was
continually in his company, seemed,
indeed, to take pleasure in 1t, and
to encourage his decidedly marked
attentions.
Lee did not like Roland Gish.
Still less did she like q certain
possessiven In the way he some
times looked at Terry.
At the same time, In fairness, she
could not feel wholly out Of sym
pathy with the girl. Observing Gish
carefully, she was bound to admit
that the man was good looking,
pleasant, and possessed Of q breez-
lily Jolly manner which was not
without fascination.
Lee felt an impatient, rising anger
against her careless, butterfly step
mother. She had always been hope
lessly indiscriminate in her hap
hazard collecting Of chance acquain-
tances. Before II had not mattered
SO much; now Terry was growing
up-and Terry was impressionable.
She voiced something Of this, i'm
pulsively, to Mrs. Dorice few days
later. She had been riding with the

trusive, but none the less observ-

He paused, drumming long white
fingers on the arm Of his chair.
Terry flung up her head resentfully,
but he gave her no time to frame
the retort hovering on her lips.
"Mr. Gish is, Of course, friend
of your mother's-and for the mo-
ment my guest. At the same time,
II my memory serves me rightly, he
has-ah-the reputation Of being
rather more Of a .man-of-the-world

very young girl. That is all. ! feel
quite sure you have too much com
mon sense to bear me any malice
for my plain speakipg-which after
all, must be forgivable In an old
man" ....t ..'
He blinked at her bepevolently.
nodded in kindly dismissal, and a.
ter a brief instant of hesitation the
girl passed out of the room, still
flushed and in silence. - - .,,
AS the door closed upon her Lee
went quickly 10 her husbands side.
She, too, was a little flushed, her
soft eyes troubled. = s.h,a
I'm awfuily sorry" she declared
distressingly. "I had no idea Of
whom Teresa would choose to bring
with her. II I had, I'm afraid /

It. AS to Gish"-- n avs
He paused. and again Lee was
aware Of q certain stiffening Of his
body, a subtle alteration Of his ex,
preston. Her eyes deepened to
anxiety. ~

posed as he would appear. He met
her dismayed glance and smiled at
her. Then he looked again at
Terry.
'Is that all, child" he asked in
his indulgently gentle way, and
Terry made a wide, fierce gesture.
"All!" she exploded Indignantly.
> isn't It enough? Because Haines
is an old and trusted servant OF
yours, is he to indulge in insuffer.

Terry" ... ..-... ..
Lees voice was gentle, but 1t held a
note of quiet command that checked
Terry in spite of her rage. Mr..
Smithers coughed slightly behind
his hand. One might almost have
suspected that he smiled, but his
tone was absolutely serious when
he spoke. III. ....
Perhaps he said in his courte-
Gus way, you will find Frost for
me, Terry, and tell him to send
Haines to me here Immediately af-
ter dinner" ..
Terry opened her lips, looked at
him, and closed them again. Still
flushed she made for the door, but
paused as Smithers's voice spoke
her name again.

customed note Of incisiyeness in his
usually hesitant tones that made
both girls look at him quickly. "A

still brilliant red-brown eyes, smil.

for a moment, behind his glasses,
she saw his eyes CLEAN. Thep his

told her quietly, and there was a
sudden vibrant wistfulness in his
voice that caught at her heart

face down. For Just one fiuttering

touched his cheek. Then, at the
sound of voices without, she turned
quickly aside and moved toward the
door.
At It she paused and looked back
at him. In one hand, caressingly,
she held the pearls. She looked
down at them and up again smiling
