RAIL Shipments STRIKE
Is NEAR SETTLEMENT
Executives of Many Roads and
Jewell Agree on Peace Plan,
1t Is Said.

Chicago, Sept. 6.-The railroad
strike is near settlement. A tentative
peace agreement has been reached be-
tween representatives of the striking
shop crafts and representatives Of the
railroads.
Negotiations have been conducted
secretly In the East, it became known
here.
The terms of the agreement have
been closely guarded, but are said to
provide that the railroads grant the
men an increase of z cents an hour
over the scale defined in the decision
OF the United States railroad board,
against which the shopmen struck.
A compromise was effected on the
matter Of seniority right, but, accord
ing to information reaching here, most
OF the old employees will get their
jobs back. 1t is expected that the most
competent of the new men will be re-
tanned.
The conference, it was learned, was
held within so miles Of Washington.
Mr.. Jewell and other representatives
OF the striking shopmen attended. The
railroads were represented by execu-
tives from those roads that had al
ready expressed willingness to accept
the proposals suggested by President
Harding as a basis Of settlement.
These terms were rejected by the ex-
ecutiveS as a whole.
The Idle hard" roads, it was pointed
out, had not participated in the con-
ference, but it was held with their
knowledge, and it was expected they
would eventually accept the terms.
The meeting, it was said, was held
without knowledge of the government,
and the terms of agreement were made
independently Of the labor board or
other government agencies.

DELAY MINE RESCUE 5 DAYS
Another Solid Wall of Rock Must Be
Cut by the Rescuing
Crews.

Jackson, CAL, Sept. Thigh hopes
have been dashed almost to despair
again in the fight to rescue the AZ
entombed Argonaut miners. After
breaking through 60 feet of hard green
stone formation in AN effort to circle
a clogged drift on the 3,600-foot level
of the Kennedy mine, adjoining the
Argonaut, rescue workers have en-
erged into the main drift again only
to find their way still blocked
Indications are that the 356 feet
of drift which mine officials had ex-
pected to find open is closed through
out It's length. If so. every foot of
the way will have to be shoveled out
and perhaps retimbered.
The day of expected delivery has
been put back at least five days, in
the opinion of mine officials.

MRS. HARDING
IS IMPROVED
Staff of Physicians Are More
Hopeful of Her Re-
C0very.
STILL DANGER OF RELAPSE
Increased Drainage From the Affected
Kidney Causes Great Relief for
the Patient-Operation is
Considered Necessary.

Washington, Sept. 12.-Though still
critically i'll, Mrs. Harding shows nu-
mistakable signs of Improvement.
The official bulletin issued at the
White House showed pulse and resplr-
alton more nearly normal with prac-
tically no change in temperature. 1t
was made plain, however, that the
patient is not yet out of danger.
Doctor Sawyer supplemented the
bulletin by stating that the staff OF
physicians attending Mrs. Harding
were more hopeful than at any time
since her illness reached critical
stage.
"The danger of relapse still
threatens" he added, "but increased
drainage from the affected kidney
caused considerable relief"
The more favorable condition thus
resulting had caused the determine
ton to treat the patient rather than
the disease" for the next few days.,
unless a sudden relapse necessitated
heroic measures, Doctor Sawyer
states.
operation is Necessary.
A permanent cure of Mrs. Hard
ing's affection can only be brought
about by an operation and this will
not be attempted in her present con-
dition, it was stated.
The exact cause of Mrs. Harding's
intermittent attacks, eliminating in
the latest and most serious affection,
was learned for the first time. Fol-
lowing an operation in 1913 in which
an incision was made directly into the
kidney, Mrs. Harding recovered rap
idly and for a considerable period
was in splendid health. Serious COM
plications developed, however, when
the healed organ broke from it's nat
ural fastenings causing the condition
known as floating kidney"
Periodically, it was stated, the I'M
anchored kidney presses against the
outlet canal, practically shutting off
the natural outlet This results in
severe attacks such as the present,
and can only be permanently relieved
by an operation. This probably will
be attempted as soon as Mrs Hard
ings general health has improved to
a point where major operation can
be attempted.
Surgery Last Resort.
1t was decided to employ surgery
only as last resort. The many days
of suffering have so affected Mrs.
Harding's vitality that it was feared
she could not survive the shock of
going under the knife.
The extreme tension In the Presi-
dents household for the last 4S hours
relaxed noticeably. DR.. Charles
Mayo celebrated Rochester (Minn.)
surgeon, and DR.. John Finney of Bal
timore, found time to Snatch a few
hours rest Doctor Sawyer. personal
physician, was able to leave the bed
side for few hours.
All are holding themselves in readi-
ness for emergencies and keep within
call. The Presidents fleet of automo-
hiles9 is kept at the White House
ready ready to dash anywhere about
