Although union officials continued
to withhold comment today on their
White House conferences, and details
of the tentative proposals for set
tlement of the strike had not been
revealed: indication that hopeful prog
ress had been made was seen in the
fact that they were remaining here
instead of returning to Chicago last
night. as originally planned. 1t was
believed they intended to stay in
Washington pending the outcome of
the railroad executives meeting Tues

eastern rail executives who refused
to yield on the seniority issue at their
recent conference with members of
the Senate interstate commerce COM

today for conference with the

tion to the Senate judiciary commit

Secretary Hughes was said to favor
a mixed commission being negotiated
for under a new treaty with Ger
many. which was reported to be near

gave notice yesterday at hearings on
his bill that such a treaty would
cause great delay and even might
never be ratified.
Secretary Hughes position, accord
ing to senators, was that the all
American commission proposed by
Senator Underwood would run di-
rectly counter to the treaty now be-
ing negotiated with Germany. Ger

Q How is lime prepared
a The best lime is yielded bv the
densest limestones, the quality of
the lime depending further upon
the duration of the heating process
and the degree of heat to which the
limestone are subjected. The heating
process is carried out In kilns. a
good draft being necessary to rend-
er ii effective. Il is Well that the
limestone should contain a certain
amount of moisture, the latter aid
ing the decomposition Of the car
Donate. Various methods have been
devised for adding moisture to the
carbonate during the process of heat
ing; thus a current Of steam passed
over the carbonate, or spray OF
water thrown upon it from time 10
thine accelerates the process very
effectively. The limestone was form
erly heated in heaps or bitches but
at present this is scarcely ever praC-
ticed on q large scale, the process
being carried out either in intermit-
tent or continuous kilns, the type Of
which is chosen according 10 the
available fuel. The kilns may be pro
vided with hreplaces, the fuel and
the limestone being separated. or
else there may be no separate fire
places, the limestone being charged
together with the fuel The latter
form Of kilns is convenient for most
ordinary PURPOSES: but IL IS desire
