NORTHCLIFFE is DEAD
Noted British PubliciSt Dies After
Long Illness.
Was Owner of Newspapers Which Had
Attacked Lloyd Georges
~ Administration.

London Aug. 15.-viscount North
cliffe, noted British publicist, died
here.
News of Lord Northcliffe's death
was given out by the doctors who have
been attending him in this bulletin:
"Viscount Northcliffe died at 1912
O'Clock. The end was perfectly peace
full"
Later it was stated that the cause
Of Lord Northcliffe's death was sup
puration, or the production of pus,
within the heart, which was followed
by acute blood poisoning.
Lord Northcliffe was by far the most
noted figure in British Journalism,
and the first question on everyone's
lips was as to what effect his death
will have on the policies of the Times
and his other news apers, which since
the end of the war have strongly OPP
posed the Lloyd George administers
ton and it's principles, with the no.
table exception of its dealings with
Ireland, which the Northcliffe press
supported throughout.
Viscount Northcliffe, the son of an
Irish barrister, became an editor at
seventeen years, owner and publisher
of the London Tires and Daily Mail,
the molder of public opinion, man
of powerful influence in the making

PRESIDENT AND
WORKERS CONFER
Union Chiefs to Call Another Con-
ference With Railroad
Executives.
HARDING APPROVES new MOVE
IT May Not Succeed in Ending Strike,
as the Railway Officials Declare
That the Incident Is
Closed.

Washington, Aug. 15.-At a confer
ence with President Harding the rail
way unions decided to call another
conference with railroad executives in
an effort to reach an independent set
Element of the shop strike.
The call is to. be issued Immediately
to group of rail executives known to
be liberal. Among them the minority
have already offered acceptable con-
cessiens to the shopmen The deci-
sion of this conference is to be used
as an opening wedge with the entire
body of executives, the unions plan.
President Harding, it was said, APP
proved the new move of the railroad
brotherhoods, but will take no part in
the deliberations. He feels that if
anything can be accomplished now it
can be done with the opposing fac
lions facing each other across the
table and not through mediation.
May Not Succeed. :
This was the anti-climax to a situa-
ton that was regarded as hopeless
and even now rail and union officials
are not certain it will be successful.
Spokesman for the unions declared
that they had not sounded out the ex-
ecutives and could not hope to get a
sufficient representation here to have
weight. Rail officials declared that the
incident is closed" unless the unions
come to their way of seeing things.
I'VE are trying to get some one to
talk to us in way that will be help
full" declared L. e. Sheppard, speak
ing for the brotherhoods. I'VE hope
that we will be able to get some rail-
road executives in conference that are
not so tenacious on some questions as
others are. We will decide in the
morning exactly what is to be done ir
this direction.
"As long as we are mediating the
case the executives will do nothing
The labor board takes the position
that men on strike are not entitled to
consideration at the hands of the
board. We contend that when men &c
on strike their rights are only sus
pended. This strike is lawful one.''
/ Are Trying to Run Trains.
Mr.. Sheppard stressed the point
that it is not the intention of the
brotherhoods at this time to have an
issue of unsafe equipment. mstruc-
lions have been sent to all of the men
to make an honest effort to run the
trains.
Where slight defects have been
found to locomotives or equipment, he
declared, the men have been directed
to try to make the runs, carrying less
cars and travelling at a reduced or
safe speed.
But in spite of this new move the
situation continues grave. Even con-
ference with group of shopmen will
not bring immediate relief, it was
pointed out, while equipment con-
tinues to deteriorate and reports. of
disorders increase
eve can see no way of avoiding a
complete tieup of the transportation
system of the country unless the trains
can be kept running in the face of
united opposition from the unions
This statement from one of the
members of the interstate commerce
commission epitomizes the situation
from the government viewpoint, a
view that has not changed with the
newest development.

IMPROVED
ROADS
WAR SUPPLIES FOR HIGHWAYS
So Far Approximately $4,000, ,ooo
Worth Of Surplus Material Has
Been Distributed.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
Approximately $3.50, 100000 worth of
surplus war materials, turned over by
the War department to the Depart
ment of Agriculture, were distributed
through the bureau of public roads to
the various states for road-building
purposes up to November l last.
Under the Wadsworth-Kahn bill this
surplus war material is sent to the
states with the sole provision that it
be used only for road-building pur-
poses. A vast accumulation of ma
chinery, equipment, supplies and mo-
tor vehicles that was to have been
used in France has thus been diverted
to useful peace-time purpose.
Included in the supplies distributed
among the states are 27,19S motor
vehicles, mostly trucks; 172 locomo-
tives of various sizes; $4,000 gross
tons of rails; more than 100000
pounds of powder; and nearly 10,02

Every time you see an old maid you
turn green with envy, and you have
told me million times that a woman
sacrifices her liberty and independ-
ence the minute she inveigles man
to the altar, and vows to love, cherish
and protect him. You have said in my
presence that the spinster is the only
woman who is her own boss.
st doesn't take the ingenuity of q
Sherlock Holmes to deduce from your
remarks that you consider matrimony
a total loss. Why, then, Mrs. James
worthy, are you forever trying to be-
guile your friends into that condition
of misery? Of course, you can't ex
plain; neither can any woman explain.
Matchmaking just comes natural tc
all of you.
"When l am looking for all kinds OF
plain and fancy trouble, I'll begin
matching up the young men and wom
en- of my acquaintance. But not until
l am suffering for an invoice Of grief
/ might persuade my friends to invest
in a western silver mine, or buy patent
rights in a revolving churn, but you'll
never see Elijah Jamesworthy boost
ing matrimony in your indiscriminate
way. If two young people got married
through your ring generalship, and
they found that each had drawn gold
brick, they would hate you as long
as they lived, and would always speak
Of you as an old busybody with nose
too long for legitimate purposes, and
they'd make faces at you whenever
you met them on the street.
do you ever think of your respon.
sibility when you try to boom the or
ange blossom market? Does it ever
occur to you, at such times, that you
are rushing in where angels fear to
tread?
"Now, just consider Sarah Jane Fa,
vorite and Charles Augustus Terwil.
Tiger, who will be railroaded to the
altar if you have your way. I admit
that they make handsome pair
Sarah is a blonde with pug nose
and Charles Augustus is a brunette
with a nose like a Roman senator
They afford a pleasing contrast. But
appearances count for little, Mrs
Jamesworthy, when the real business
of married life begins.
"Sarah has basked in the lap of lux.
ury all her days, and she has the idea
that money grows on vines like cus
cumbers. / don't suppose she ever
knew what it means to need fifty cents
or a dollar. When she wants anything
she goes to the store and gets it, and
has it charged to her father. If there
is one word in the dictionary she isn't
familiar with, that word is retrench-
ment.
"Charles Augustus on the other
hand had hard Shedding all through
his boyhood. AS a result of his ex-
perience he has an exaggerated idea OF
the value of a kopeck. He is the sort
of man who will walk eight miles
through a thunderstorm rather than
cough up carfare. Whenever he parts
with a nickel he has to take bromo-
seltzer to steady his nerves. His rev.
erence for money increases every day.
and it will keep on increasing as long
as he lives.
"Yet you, Mrs. Jamesworthy, in your
feeble-minded matchmaking enthusi-
asm, would use your vote and lnf1u-
ence to join these two people in the
holy bonds. Just take the advice of
your swaybacked husband, and let
such people work out their own des-
