FARLEY To TALK
RAIL ROAD PEACE
BLOWN SKY HIGH
Heads of the Big Five
BrotherhoOdS Fail in
Their Efforts to Settle
WaIkout of Shop Crafts.

New York, Aug. IS (by the Asso-
ciated Press. 1.-The rail strike to-
day developed into a fight to a fin
ish when peace negotiations were
blown sky high.
Heads of the big Five" railroad
brotherhoods, acting as mediators
between executives and striking
shopmen in final effort to effect
separate settlement with individual
roads after the Association of Rail-
way Executives as a whole had re-
jected the running trades first
peace overtures, reported to the
representatives of seventy
roads at the Yale club this morn
ing that the shop crafts had turned
down a proposition made to them
yesterday by the carriers.
Negotiations Broken Off.
Negotiations then were sharply
broken off and executives, strike
leaders and brotherhood chiefs
packed their bags and began leav-
ing town, prepared for test of
endurance.
Before he departed for his head
quarters in Chicago, Bert NJ. Jewell,
official spokesman for the strikers,
asserted that he believed the eX-
ecutives who had fingered for the
parley on individual settlements
would be enabled ito bring home to
their hard -shelled colleagues the
railroad situation in it's grim real
ity."
Eve shall be content to let the
condition of equipment prove that
the railroads cannot operate with
unskilled strike breakers" declared
Mr. Jewell, adding later that I'VE
can and we will fight for our terms
and for a nationwide settlement"
Labor leaders then dispatched
kilograms to all parts of the coun-
try, calling upon strikers to renew
the struggle with redoubled vigor.
Latest Peace Proposal.
The latest peace proposal, CEN
tering as was the case with all the
others on the question of seniority,
briefly was that roads interested
in individual settlements would
pledge themselves to find employ
ment for all strikers not convicted
of acts of violence, would not cur
tail pension rights, cor other privi-
leges," and would agree to submit
to commission of ten brotherhood
leaders and executives all disputes
which could not be settled by di-
rect conference.
The strikers who have maintained
that they had not authorized the
big five to suggest individual set

with the explanation that it did not

VICTIMS OF KLANI SENATE KILLS IT
New Theory Now Advanced in
Double Murder Case. IL,
Residents Heard Screams and
SObs on Murder Night.

New Brunswick, n. J., Sept. 21.-
AS the mystery deepened in the double
murder of Edward Wheeler Hall, rich
rector of the Protestant Episcopal
church of st. John the Evangelist. and
his choir singer, Mrs. Elanore Mills,
blonde and beautiful, a theory began
to take shape today that the couple
may have been the victim of sort of
Ku KIux Klan vengeance. While the
Mills family was in poor circumstances
the Halls were rich, prominent and
high and dignified position.
Residents of the neighborhood of
the old Phillips manor-the seat of
the deserted haunted house''-said
they heard two automobiles race by
last Thursday night-the night of
the double tragedy. They said they
heard screams, which rose and fell in
intensity; first as tho pleading and
ending in a sobbing wall that betok-
ened violent death. These cries lasted
about seven minutes, ending about
twenty minutes before midnight
Amidst the diversity of clues, rum
ors and theories, which rise up almost
hourly, one is now advanced that DR..
Hall and Mrs. Mills, after being lured
to the spot by telephone, may have
been seized and overpowered, then
placed in a powerful motor car to be
borne thru the midnight darkness to
the lonely old farm where death in
terrible form befell them.
