There was CONSERVATION in the
Reichstag when Chancellor Wirth, at
today'S session announced he had re-

tor promptly got out of the chamber
as inconspicuously as he could.
Berlin police. still trying to track
down Rathenau's assassins, have is
sued orders to hold up all automobiles
leaving the city until the occupants
are scrutinized. They have requested
the frontier police to make a similar
check on every machine crossing the
German border.
One report is that the murderers of
the foreign minister drove in their
automobile to Staaken Aerodrome
where they had an airplane waiting.

Million Maintenance Of
Way and Shopmen
May Go Out July 1.

CHICAGO, June 25.-Wheth-
er there is to be a strike of
nearly 100000 shop and
maintenance of way employees
will be announced Thursday,
Bert NJ. Jewell, president os
the American Federation of
Labor railway department,
said today.
Jewell and the employe

sion throughout the day. tab
ulating the three pronged
strike vote, which has now
been completed.
1t is understood that while
the vote is generally in favor
of strike by an overwhelm-
ing majority. a few shop
craft unions have voted neg
atively.
AS Thursday is June 90 and
two days before the wage
cuts ordered by the Railroad
Board are to go into effect
July -Jewell's statement
was interpreted as meaning
that the statement will give
notice that the strike has
been ordered to. take effect
on that day. This belief was
strengthened by the fact that
no general chairman would be
called into Chicago during
the deliberations here this
week.

PASSAGE OF TARIFF
WILL CAUSE HUGE
TAX, SAYS WALSH
Estimates Burden $13.15
Per Capita More Than
Under Present Act.

Increased prices of agricultural
products which will follow the en-
actment of the tariff bill will mean
tax upon the American people
amounting to $136,56O,449, accord
ing to a statement made yesterday
by Senator Walsh, of Massachusetts,,
Democratic member of the Senate
Finance Committee.
Senator Walsh estimated that the
burden due to the tariff will amount
to s13.l5 per capita more than the
present Underwood act and sass
per capita more than the former
Payne-Aldrich act.
The figures were prepared. he
said. with the aid of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. Added to the
food tax. he claimed, will he an
| increased cost In the price of shoes,
cotton and wooien goods, furniture,
building materials and other manu-
factured articles.
Senator McCumber, of North Da-
kota. in pointing out the particular
benefits t. the farmer to be de-
rived from the present measure
said. Nearly everything the farm
ers use in the operation of a farm
such as farm machinery. potash
barbed wire, etc.-is placed upon
the free list. Because of duties
given upon farm products, a COM
pensatory duty must be given on
finished articles made from such
farm products.
''If you will look at the price of
spring wheat from November. 1921.
to the present time you will see
that the American producer has re-
ceived an average Of 30 cents a
bushel more than the Canadian pro-
ducer."

John L. Lewis. president Of the
United Mine Workers. arrived here
last night in response to an invita-
ton to confer with Secretary of
Labor Davis today on a plan for
settling the miners strike.
Secretary Davis is away from
Washington but will return today.
II Is understood his only aim at
present is to JeSrn from Mr.. Lewis
the conditions, on which he would
be willing to enter into negotia-
tions with the operators for an
adjustment of the wage dispute.
This is the first step in the pro-
gram OF President Harding for deal
ing with the mine strike. He first
will endeavor to bring about set
tlement by the operators and miners
in voluntary conference. II that
move fails the Cabinet will consider
other measures, among them be-
ing arbitration and the creation
OF a commission to investigate the
strike and submit recommendations
of action by the government to
bring 6bOut resumption in produc-
tIon of fuel
LeWs DECLINES TO Talk.
Lewis declined to discuss the
situation. but II is known that he
is prepared TO reject any possible
proposal by the administration 10
negotiate with the operators in dis
trict or State conferences. He still
holds that the only negotiations pos
sible are to fiX wages for the whole
central competitive field.
There Is every moral and econom-
| ic reason why adjustment Of this
strike should be effected at an early
| date" said Lewis. The interests
OF the country and its citizenship
dictate such a course. The public
is being penalized by the strike and
the immediate future is fraugh'
with even greater hazards for the
public interests IL the strike con
| tinues."

THE HAGUE, June 25.-With the

representatives will have to be post
poned until Tuesday, thus causing
