Strike Headquarters in New York Urge Men to Renew
 Struggle with Energy.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-Attempts to end the railroad strike by sep arate agreements and settlements with the individual systems have failed.
 The conference here between rail road executives and the representa- tives of the Five Big Brotherhoods is off,
 Daniel Willard, President of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, head of the railroad executives, is preparing to leave the city with other execu- tives.
 In announcing the end of the ne- gotiations, David Williams, head of the eastern strike committee, said
 Nothing else could have hap pcned. If they will quit fussing settlement could have been made. Arrangements are being made to teat these fellows
 At the labor headquarters here where it is said the fight will be waged to a finish, telegrams are being dispatched to all parts of the country calling strikers to renew the struggle with redoubled vigor.
 We know where we stand,' said one of the strike leaders. s
 Cause of Break.
 From unofficial sources 1t IS learn cd the break came when the labor representatives rejected the pro. posal advanced by the executives which the latter considered a great concession.
 The executives are said to have expressed to the representatives of the railroad strikers that although definitely assured in substance of all they asked for they were un- willing to settle under conditions proposed"
 The labor representatives in statement questioned the integrity of the executives in making the latest proposals and could not accept.
 The shop leaders said that to ac- :ept the propositions of the minor ity of the railroads would destroy the effectiveness of the strike and would be a desertion of other men.
 GOVERNMENT SILENT.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 25. - The Administration does not intend to move in the present railroad strike eeituation as the result of the failure Yof the New York negotiations. Thn 1 is according to member of the Cabinet who declared President Harding is still firm in his de- termination standing by his pro nouncement that all power of the government will be used to maln' tain transportation and sustain the right of men to work.

Book Found Sub
stantiating Cooks
Arctic Claims

Old Town, Me, Jan. 19--According
to information received at the head
office of the j. w. Scwall Co, forest
ry engineers. here, relic of DIR.
Cooks North Pole expedition has
come to light in the way of one of
his notebooks with important data.
The Sewall Co. has a contract for
surveying and cruising vast tract of
wilderness timbcrland in Northern
Quebec. Kenneth NJ. Clark, a Har-
ward man, has been in charge of one
OF the so-called pioneer parties
which cached provisions and made
ready for the surveying parties which
are working this Winter several
hundred miles north of the nearest
railroad
Mr.. Clark has written the office
that while surveying at the extreme
north of the section, with native
guide, they came upon strange
trail, which led to q rough igloo. al
most buried in the snow. In it was
s, lone Eskimo or halfbree ed clad in
furs. In this igIoo Mr.. Clark found
an old notebook, several papers and
bits of metal which appeared to be
parts OF seXtant. On the ny-leaf
was DR.. Cooks name and several
pages were filled with notes of wea-
ther, latitude, longitude, condition of
the ice foes and such information.
All these were carefully written es-
pecially the calculations and compu-
f1tiOnC Iarin1,orol,1a
latitude Sd. Notes beyond that were
indistinct. The wandering half
breed and the Indian guide could
understand few words of each 9TH
er's dialect and it was finally learned
from the half-breed that he was
something of wilderness hobo and
that he had been with the white
mans exploring party They had
found going hard, billiards separated
the crews and some turned back
leaving but a few, who with DR.. Cook,
pushed ahead over the ice-packs.
Provisions became Low, the dogs
went bad and the expedition had TO
turn back.
The half-breed like other Eskimo
picked up anything left or dropped
by the white men and the book
and other articles had been carried
by the wanderer ever since. He had
wandered south, looking for better
hunting, living on raw meat when
he could. killing deer with the har.
poon-like Spear he carried. AS near
as could be made out he had been n
year away from his people and was
about to turn back north when he
fell in with the Clark party.
Mr.. Clark wrote that the half
breed liked their coffee and pork so
well he was still with them and was
being used as official game killer as
no was good with a gun and a great
hunter. The Cook note book will
eventually reach civilization and will
no doubt throw light on the explor-
er's actual course.

ccti hsbit
What can the daily newspap ers
do to increase the population and
advance the prosperity of Maine %
This was the topic at the January
session of the Maine Daily News
paper association at the De Witt
hotel Wednesday afternoon and it
led to appointment of a committee
consisting of A. G. Staples of the
Lewiston journal: Frank B. Nichols
OF the Bath Daily Times and NJ. r.
Harrigan of the Bangor Commercial
to make a survey of the various &C
tivltles now operating or about to
operate in Maine and report to a
meeting to be called soon by the
president. Charles +. Flynt of the
kennebec Journal.
1t was agreed that while many
other sections of the United States
had been more severely hurt by.dull
times, Maine is not doing all it
should to make itself felt as a home
state, an agricultural state, sum-
mer and winter resort state and an
industrial state.
1t was begun by a general agree
ment' that the Legislature might be
backed by the newspapers in an ap-
preparation of considerable amount
to advertise the State of Maine. That
there may be no suggestion of per-
sonal interest in this on the part of
the newspapers, the money so ap-
propriated should be spent in publ
cations outside of Maine.
1t was agreed that the things es-
sential to industrial progress are
helpful attitude toward the railroads.
improvement of transportation and
extension of train service, fixation
and sterilization of our policy to-
ward investors, advertising of our
unparalleled attractions as resort
state, development of a new concep-
ton OF our wonderful orcharding
our sheep and cattle lands and our
water-powcr.
Each of the members present was
enthusiastic for active publicity by
the Maine newspapers themselves
for a stouter stand for Maine.
Those present were Charles F.
Flynt of Augusta; NJ. P. Harrigan of
Bangor. Walter B. Reid &c Bangor,
F. b. Nichols of Bath: l.. B. Costello.
Hartley: L. Lord and w. b. Dimon of
Portland.
1t was voted to hold the next regu-
lar meeting in Augusta and the July
meeting at Bath.
One OF the interesting points of the
reports of the year was the fact that
the association had a balance Of over
5000 in the treasury and that its eX-
penses for the past year had been
none.

Alice r. Parker. the Red Cross school
nurse. Col. Roy L. NIarston was the
last speaker, closing q program which
had been greatly enjoyed both by the
splendid hosts and the guests. TAX
ing it altogether the evening was one
of excellent fellowship and exhibited
the loyal cooperation which exists
between the two classes which occu-
py such an important place in the
work Of the Federated Sunday school.
While the men were busy clearing
up after the supper. the ladies re-
paired to the parlor, where they held
