Washington, July 31.-The conf

railway shopmon win be back at
their posts before the end of tho
week, possibly before, was made to.
day by government officials who
have been handling the critical stu
alton caused by the twin rail and
coal strikes.
Messages to the White House dur
ing the last a hours show that a
majority of the i4S railroad execu-
tives who will meet In New York
tomorrow will accept President Hard
ing's terms for settlement of the
strike.
Terms Virtually Accepted.
The presidents terms as stated by
the United Press already have been
virtually accepted by the shopmen's
leaders and the meeting of the 80
members of the strikers policy COM
mittee In Chicago tomorrow will be
mainly for the purpose of ratifying
this agreement.
Bert NJ. Jewell, leader of the strik-
ors, and r. Dewitt Cuyler, chairman
Of the railroad executives, pledged
themselves to the plan at several
conferences with Harding. Both
sides are expected to make flourishes
of protest, but this merely is part Of
the theatrlcals of backing down.
The executives probably will reg
lister the loudest protest in accepting
the compromise on the troublesome
seniority question and other terms
Of the Harding peace plan. but pow
orful pressure has been brought to
bear on the "die hards" among the
/ group and the presidential proposal
will be accepted on the grounds that
it is a virtual command issued from
the White House in the public in
| torest.
In his letter submitting his plan,
Harding will make it clear that
should either side reject his proposal
it must accept full responsibility for
the continuance of the present con.
ditions of the railroads
w. w. Atterbury of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad, chief opponent OF
compromise with the strikers, prob
ably will lead fight against the
plan at the meeting OF executives,
To Discuss Rehearings.
Ben W. Hooper, chairman of the
railroad labor board, was due here
today for a conference with Presi-
dent Harding Harding and Hooper
are to discuss the nature Of the re-
hearings by the board OH the wage
and other issues involved in the
presidents compromise plan.
The coal strike situation remains
unchanged, although the drift is
steadily toward peace conference
of operators and miners The White
House hopes that a call for a con.
ference will go out this week. John
l.. Lewis, president of the United
Mine Workers of America, is ex.
pected to issue formal invitation
for the operators willing to negotiate
to meet the miners officials in
Cleveland. Lewis is only waiting
for sufficient tonnage representa-
tion to assure the success of the con-
ference.
Coal production now is less than
100000 tons weekly, compared with
more than 100000 tons for this
/ time last year.

are other sections, of course, to be
taken up. but the big fight was on
the enlisted provision.

serted that the letter presented from
the President, urging that the force
be not reduced below $4,000, swung
the tide in favor of the amendment
sentative Macarthur of Oregon and
Representative Ware of Pennsylvania,
both Republican.
Fighting to the last, holding his
ground through four solid hours of de-
bate, Representative Kelley of Michi-
gan. in charge of the bill, took the de-
feat with Il smile when a roar. rising
the march of members down the aisle
for Il man-to-man count showed that
the amendment had won.
When the moment came for a vote
ON the $4,000 amendment the question
was put and there was a loud shout
of ayes and an even louder shout of
noes. No presiding officer could have
decided which side was stronger in
numbers.
So great was the below of the noes
that Representative Ware, on the win
ming side, jumped to his feet with a
demand for Il rising vote. Before this
could be called the whole HOUSE
shouted for tellers and in a moment
members were jammed Mt the head of
the center aisle waiting for a chance
to crowd through and be counted.
Every seat filled, the galleries
joined in the tumult. Guards who had
kept the crowds in order during the
day let them shout as they pleased.
Representative Kelley, as chairman
Of the subcommittee which framed the
bill with its provision of a navy with

to speak. As the gavel tapped the
warning that his time was up the
chairman, swinging away from the
point he was seeking to drive home.

crease came from navy yard sections,
exclaimed:
Let me say this, we must not per-

themselves across the path OF the

and peace as set by the armament con

Gently appointed by President j. O..
Herr, of the Chamber of Commerce,
held a meeting on Wednesday evening,
at the City Hall, to meet Mr.. Robert
A. Josselyn, General Representative
OF the Matthew J. Riley Shows, who
came to this city personally to explain
the details of the contract under which
his show would operate in this city

The storm water drainage system
just completed by the city to carry off
water from Fourth street and Wash
ington avenue will soon have to be
extended beyond the point where the
system now ends. On Tuesday night
William |. Garrison came before Coun-
Gil to ask that the system be extended
over land he has recently purchased
between Brighton and Reading ave
nues When this is done then other
property owners will be requesting
the same thing, until eventually the
drainage system will have to be e.
tended so that the storm water can
empty into and be carried away by
Absecon Creek. This is the general
opinion of the councilmen and others
familiar with the situation.
Councilman Peck also called atten-
ton to the fact hat drainage must be
provided at Park avenue Here the
plan will be to carry the water across
private property to Greenfield avenue,
and thence down that street to Pros
pect avenue, and thence continuing
down Oakland avenue to Lakes Bay.
In this improvement the Board of
FreeholdersN. will be asked to bear a
portion of the expense.

A communication was received from
William C. Sullivan, Secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce. asking co-ope-
ration of City Council in having the
Atlantic City Railroad place safety
gates at the Franklin avenue crossing.
Councilman Stephenson stated that in
his opinion the railroad should either
place the gates, as requested, or else
be compelled TO reduce the speed of
the trains running through the city.
He said Council would welcome sug-
gestions from the Chamber of Com
merce as to the best method to pur-
sue to have the railroad company act
