Both Carriers Executives
and Union Chiefs Expect
Momentous Developments
During the Week,
EXPRESS HOPES or
EARLY SETTLEMENT
Roads Reported to Have
Stopped Recruiting Men
to Replace Strikes, to 2
Large Extent,
lBx The Associnted Press.l

Chicago, July 16 (by the Associ-
ated Press. "A veil of silence de-
scended like a blanket over the
railroad strike situation today as
both rail heads and strike leaders
turned hopeful eyes toward mo-
mentous developments the new
week was expected to bring forth
The bitterness which has mark
ed the progress of the waikout at
times during the past two weeks,
seemed to have been succeeded by
a peace almost approaching an un-
derstanding.
spent Day inf secIusion.
Railway executives who declared
their willingness last night to at
tend any meeting called by the
United States railroad labor board
with a view to effecting settle
ment "that would not nullify, but
would uphold and carry out the
boards decisions" spent the holi-
day in deep seclusion.
B. M. Jewell, leader of the strik-
ing shopmen, visited his almost de-
serted headquarters for a short
time only to read his mail and tele-
grams. He read the executives
statement with grin, but refused
to make any comment. There II
be nothing over the weekend
he reiterated.
II can't say a word, son--not
one word" Ben Hooper, chairman
Of the labor board, sighed wearily,
throwing his arms across the
shoulders of slis reporter who had
found him alone in the offices of
the board.
Despite the silence of the lead
ers, hopes of an early settlement
were expressed freely in both rail-
way and labor circles, although no
tangible basis for these expeca-
tions was given.
One of the Factors.
One of the factors of ten quoted
to justify n belief that the drift
was to oRardf}eace, despite the fat'~
ure last week of Mr.. Hooper's eff
forts to bring the labor leaders and
the executives together, was the
statement of R. A. Henning, gen.
eral chairman of the Federated
Shop Crafts of the Northwest that
only the refusal of eastern roads
to agree to reinstate striking shop
crafts workers with their full sen.
iority rights. is preventing a set
tlement of the strike as far as the
northwest roads are concerned.
The railroads throughout, it was
declared, have insisted that their
men return to work as one of the
first steps toward peace, and the
belief was expressed that the res
toration of the rights sought alone
would not prove a great stumbling
block in the way of a full settle
ment. In this connection a mem
ber of the labor board asserted
that the roads had stopped the re-
cruiting of men to replace the
strikers, at least to large extent.

Scholar Says Humans

Berlin, Feb. T. will the hui

is the foreboding question asked by
the French scholar, Marcel, III the

This prophet OF evil bases his
theory upon the fact that the Desert
of Sahara was formerly gigantic
lake, and that the powerful springs
once found in innumerable caves in
the Pyrenees mountains have now
dried up, leaving distinct traces OF
their former activity.
M. Marcels theory that the sur

planned by purely local causes.

Cass Lake, MIMI, Feb. 7.-Ga-Be-
Nah Gewn-Wonce. also known as
John Smith, Chippewa Indian re.
puted to be 1877, died today after a
weeks illness with pneumonia.
Smith, whose Indian name meant
"Wrinkled Meat" had been very
active in late years. A year ago he
became totally blind, but his mind
remained clear and he often recalled
the days when he was scout for the
Chippewas in the wars with the
Sioux. He also remembered events
of the war of 1872. One Of his boasts
was that he had never fought agains,
the white man.
Up to four years ago he had never
visited big city. His first trip was
to the Twin Cities.
A year and half ago he Returned
to the north woods of Minnesota to
spend his time fishing where he
fshed more than a century ago.
He had been married eight times.
He had no children and the only
survivor is Tom Smith, all adopted
son, with whom he lived.
Funeral services will be held here
Thursday at the local Catholic
church, which he joined eight years
ago. la. -..,-,.
The "Old Indian" as he was gen.
orally known, was active until six
months ago. since which time he had
not been seen outside his adopted
sons house. Before that time he had
made it practide to meet all trains
entering the village and offer postal
cards for. sale. He claimed to have
met the Schoolcraft and Cass ex-
ploration party. which passed through
here about 100 years ago.
To illustrate his vitality, it is re-
lated that seven years ago, when 1870,
the "Old Indian" was knocked down
by switch engine. His injuries con-
fined him to hospital for only three
weeks.
