OPERATORS ARE
DETERMINED TO
REOPEN SHOPS

Chicago, July l5-Virtually aban-
doning hope of an early settlement
Of the railroad strike, following the
failure of last nights conferences,
railroad executives today prepared
to make determined effort to re-
open shops with non union employees
according to high official of the
United States labor board.
This official who declined to be
quoted directly, said peace moves
would be suspended for the present
as the carriers and strikers were
unable to find any common ground
for starting negotiations when
Chairman Ben Hooper sought to
get them together yesterday.
The stumbling block in the path
Of settlement, it is said at the rail-
road board was the unions demand
for restoration Of seniority and
other privileges to the strikers.
The roads indicated to Chairman
Hooper that the men who have
stuck by their employers and the
new employees enlisted will be pro-
tected in the seniority they have
thereby attained.

WIFE'S MURDER
INTAKE HOLDUP
CHARGED TO MAN

San Francisco, Cal, July 15.--
Henry Wilkens was arrested yes
terday charged with the murder
Of his wife, Anna Wilkens, as the
result Of a statement alleged to
have been made by Arthur Castor
to District Attorney Brady and
Police Woman Kate o'Connor, it
was announced by l. M. Golden,
chief deputy district attorney,
here after Wilkens had been
lodged in jail. Mrs. Wilkens was
shot and killed the night of May
80, supposedly by one of three
nighw men in an attempted
hoIdup. Arthur Castor, held In
lail here on charges OF passing
worthless checks, is said to be one
of the highwaymen.
According to Castor's purported
statement, he and his brother,
Walter, had arranged with VIII
kens to stage fake holdup of the
WiIkens automobile. The Castors,
1t is claimed by the police, were to
have robbed Wilkens OF what mon
ey he had and also were to rob
Mrs. Wilkens of her jewelry.
The holdup, Arthur Castor is
said to have declared, was staged
as planned, with Walter Castor
welding the revolver In the
holdup, according to the repuueu
confession, shot was fired, but
Arthur Castor is said to have~d
MED that he knew who fired 1t,
his brother. Walter, or Wiikens.
In the robbery, Arthur is re-
ported to have said, 1t is claimed,
Walter Castor took wallet from
Wilkens. After the holdup, CON
tinued the statement, the pair
drove back into the city and the
next morning Walker complained
that Wilkens had double crossed
him--that the wallet was empty
and that Mrs. Wilkens had worn
no Jewelry.
Then Arthur Castor Is said to
have explained, he and his bro
ther went to the Wilkens home,
where Wilkens gave them three
500 bills.
Two 500 bills were found on
the Castors when they were ar
rested the day following the shoot
Ing of Mrs Wilkens The bro
theirs later were turned loose be-
cause of insufficient evidence
against them. Wilkens claimed
that he had been robbed of three
500 bills in the holdup In which
his wife was slain.

Where Were Phillips
and Mrs. Meadows On
Night Before Murder?

Los Angeles, Cal, July Ia
Where was Mrs. Albert Meadows
on the night before she was the
victim of what has become known
locally as the ''stoLe age murder
because it was accomplished with
hammer and rock? And where
the same night was A. l.. Phillips,
husband Of the woman accused o.
the crime? These we're subjects
OF inquiry today, according to an
nouncement by deputy sheriffs
working on the case.
Mrs. Peggy Caffee, upon whose
testimony the Los Angeles county
grand jury yesterday returned an
Indictment charging m u r d r
against Mrs. Clara Phillips, now
held at Tucson, Ariz., declared
that the night before she accom-
panied Mrs. Phillips and Mrs.
Meadows on ride in Mrs. Mea-
dows' automobile to the lonely
spot where the young widows
Dody was found Wednesday even
ing, she and Mrs. Phillips made a
secret visit to Mrs. Meadows
apartment and that Mrs Meadows
was not at home.
Says jealousy Unwarranted.
Mrs. Philips is said by her hus-
band to have told him before her
hurried departure on the trip to
El Paso, Texas, that ended in her
being taken from the train at
Tucson, that she killed Mrs. Mea-
dows because of Jealousy, which,
he asserted, was unwarranted.
And according to the story OF
Mrs. Cafee, who was present dur
ing the, alleged Staying, Mrs. Phil
lips accused Mrs. Meadows of hav-
ing been intimate with her hus
band and of having accepted pres
ents from the oil promoter.
Phillips has declined to answer
the point blank question Of news
paper men; where were you lasr
Tuesday night?"
Il cannot answer important
questions of that nature" he said.
Would you say you were with
someone, then?' they persisted,
Il can't tell where | was" nu
answered.
Where did you meet Mrs. Mea
dows?"
Declines to Answer.
is it true you had met heI
only three times and then only In
your wife's presence, as Mrs
Meadows father, Fred Tremaine,
iaysF
THAT is an important ques-
lon," he answered with a smile.
Relatives and friends of the
lead woman, who was only 20
rears old and had been a widow
'nly few months, rallied to hel
Iefense and asserted that any as.
'ersions on her character and rep
Itation has basis only in 'idle
ossip."
The coroner announced the in
uest over Mrs. Meadows body
iould be held Monday.
Phillips has been detained as
laterial witness and will be held
5 such, according to the sheriff's
ffice. at least until his wife is
rought back to California.
w. l. Traeger, sheriff, is in Tue
on expecting to bring Mrs. Phil
pa back with him. Phillips Is
ot under arrest, but deputy
heriffs have been detailed to re-
lain with him constantly.
Mrs, Caffee was permitted to /
o after she had testified before 1
le grand jury. 4
Mrs. Phillips. who is 23 years 1
Id, is said to have had brief ex- I
erience with a comedy motion I
lcture company as a bathing I
Irl." She also has been employed 4
