SHOPMEN PREPARE
FOR FINISH FIGHT
Chairman Says Union Will
Win Its Strike With
in a Month.
nv the Associated Press


NEW YORK. August 26.-The
strike of the $4,000 shopmen in the
metropolitan district will now be
fought to q finish and no settlement
will be considered which does not in
clude all original demands, John J.
Dowd, chairman of the central strike
committee, declared in a statement
tonight. He predicted that the strike
would be won by the shopmen within
a month.
.The railroads and the newspapers"
the statement added, have inter
preted the concessions we have offered
in the public interest as sign OF
weakness We will now begin the
fight all over again on the basis of
July 1 last. We have done the con-
ceding. We will fight now. The re-
sponsibility belongs to the executives
and the press. Time fights too. and
on our side" -,
Our wages were cut below a living
wage level" Dowd's statement con-
tinued, "and at the moment when re-
turning business prosperity began to
we struck, the United States Steel
Corporation and other steel plants
have temporarily raised wages 20 per
cent; the Lawrence textile mills have
taken their strikers back at an in
creased scale and the bituminous op-
orators have agreed to take their
miners back with wages and all
rights unimpaired.
'.This object Lesson has not been
lost, either on the strikers or the
public as a whole. The truth Of the

uvity, or who after FIVE years op-
portunity have been unable to recon-
cile themselves to the soviet regime.
have been ordered exiled as a mild
form of punishment, Commissary of
Justice Kurski said today
Many Of thbse banished had long
sought the opportunity to leave Rus
sia and were pleased with the de-
cision, while others pleaded to bs
allowed to remain. This, however,
was refused, except in one instance.
where. according to NJ Kurskf. a
Prof. Shepkin said he would rather
die than leave Russia He was per-
mitted to stay.
"Re-establishment of the economic
state of affairs throughout Russia
makes it absolutely necessary to
stamp out any underground or coun-
ter-revolutionary activity against the
soviet regime which is carried on
by certain intellectuals in universi-
ties and organizations of profess
sional men," M. Kurski said
Had "Fnir Chance"
I'VE gave all these people a fair
chance. and il during the five years
of the soviet regime they have been
unable to reconcile themselves to US,
then no hope can be entertained of
their reconciliation and nothing can
be expected from them in the way of
helping US.
The new decree permitting admin
istrative banishment is not going to
be used very widely and is not being
applied to more than 1900 persons
at the utmost. Practically all Of
them are being sent abroad. where
they may have free room to agitate
against US and all the means of agi
tation at their service. Many of them
are open monarchists and propagan-
dists.
Those banished may take their
families at their own expense if they
desire. The Latvian, Esthonian and
German governments are granting
visas, and some have already started.
None of these persons have been ex-
lied to far spots in Russia"
Exiled Lawyers.
NJ kurski said the exiles included
the Russian lawyers who withdrew
from the defense during the recent
trial of the thirty-four social revo-
lutioRists charged with treason.
There were also a number of pro-
fessors from the universities OF
Moscow and Petrograd, as we'll as
some persons Aho held technical
posts with the government. All We're
taken before the political police in
Moscow and Petrograd last week and

farther back into Virginia territory
In case the right-of-way over Vfr-

ditional land required is donated by
the citizens or the county authorities.
Under the present plan the high

not cross them at any point. The
Virginia approach to the bridge will
be at the grade at Canal street where

Georgetown, until the new terminal
of the company at RossIyn is con-
structed next year.
Railroad Question Up.
The railroad question is also delay
ing the completion OF the Georgetown
approach to the new bridge. The
original plans contemplated that the
District entrance to the bridge should
be opposite the foot of 34th street.
That involved curving the George
W." IL dpPI ofhSi VI Suc pILO6o - oAh a
point near 35th street. the real axis
of the structure. The curve was pro-
posed mainly because of the higher
grade of M street at that point. The
Capital Traction Company, however,
considers that better point to curve
its tracks on M street to and from the
bridge, than will be afforded at saith
street. Whether it's application to
that end can be granted without in
reference with the general plans for
the bridge or detriment to the inter-
ests of the travelling public is now
under the joint consideration of Maj.
Tyler and the District Commission
ers, the latter acting in their ca
pacity as the Public Utilities Com
mission.
Opening May BE Delayed.
Unless these complicated railroad
problems are speedily settled. the
public opening Of the Georgetown
bridge will be delayed much beyond
New Year day, now tentatively fixed
for that event. Those in charge say
that 1t will be impossible to COM
plete the roadway of the bridge until
after the installation Of the electric
railway system in the center and the
latter work cannot even be started
until the plans now under considera- =
tion. have been passed upon by Gen.
Beach. chief of engineers. and finally
approved by the Secretary of War.

When the $4,000. 900 concrete bridge
is completed. early in January. it
probably will be placed entirely under
the jurisdiction and control Of the
Commissioners Of the District. like

farther down the river. Under the

luired legislation at the present ses-
sion of Congress.
Plans for Track Extension.
Meanwhile Maj. Tyler. the United
states engineer in charge .: the con-
struction of the bridge, is preparing
plans for the extension Of the line
or the Capital Traction Company
across the bridge. with a loop near
Canal Ca street. at the southern end OF
the government reservation at Ross
lyn. These plans involve ths closest
possible connection with the exist
ing terminal of the -Vir-
ginia road, on the east side of the
reservation, and with the new termi-
nal OF the Washington and Old Do
mfnion road. nearly opposite en- the
west side. After full consideration of
all interests involved. including those
OF the residents of nearby towns in
Virginia and of the District Of Co.
lumbia. the railroad companies, and
the government itself, 1t has been
practically settled that the Capital
Traction Company will not extend its
line. beyond the limits of the United
States reservation at Rosslyn at this
time, and that passengers on that line
desiring to connect with either of
the two Virginia lines will have %
descend four or five steps and cross
the public highway at grade.
Tunnels Are Considered.
system Of tunnels to avoid the
grade crossing in reaching the vir-
ginia terminals is not considered
practical in view of the slight differ
ences in grade. The officials do not
feel justified in forcing the Capital
Traction Company to extend it's line
into Virginia territory beyond the
limits of the government reservation
under existing conditions. 1t is in
dicated. however. that it will always
be possible to extend the loop

WEEKS ADVOCATES
1900 OFFICERS
But Secretary . Supports
Curry Bill, Which Places
Maximum at 1900.
MEANS REAL ECONOMY
Declares More Experienced Men
Than Lieutenants Needed to
Meet Emergencies.

Maintaining that the minimum
strength of officer personnel of the
Regular Army should be 13,e00, Sec
retary Weeks in a report to the House
military affairs committee yesterday
gave his approval to the Curry bill,
which, placing the maximum at IL. 900
as provided in existing law, would
retain a larger number of officers of
the rank Of captain and above, and
not have in the military establish
ment as many lieutenants as are now
proposed. He also indorsed the bill
as measure of real. economy"
II would be gratifying" to the de-
partment. Secretary Weeks declared,
TO nave the Curry bill passed. because
IN all respects" 1t would be a ma
terial Improvement over existing
legislation" Because adjustments 3
are being made to reduce the number
OF officers under the law as 1t is. the
secretary suggested that II there
were to be any notifications they
should be made without delay.
Experienced Officers Needed.
Important overhead" duties. the
development of preparedness, through
the National Guard. the organized
'~s, Sho 4kCSClS We O1IlceTS COTDS
and the Civilian Military Training
corps, he stated make it essential, for
most enective performance, to retain
suf1clent detail of officers whose
rank and experience are above that
of lieutenant.
The present law, the Secretary ex-
planned, would necessitate a reduc-
tion to nearly 1900, which would
take out of the service many officers,
more especially in the middle
grades" who cannot well be spared" /"
and necessitate the appointment of
additional lieutenants to bring the
total to 1900.
The process of obtaining the large
number of lieutenants will, at best,
be SLOW" Mr.. Weeks said, land in
the meantime the military service and
national defense will be hampered by
the shortage of experienced officers"
Sees Lower Army Costs.
The Curry bill, the Secretary in
sisted, would decrease the cost of
maintaining the Army during the
present year and reduce the expense
OF the retired list. The increase in
the number of officers proposed by
the bill in grades above that of lieu
tenant. he argued, would not ma
terially increase the total pay of the
Army. owing to Legislation which
based the pay of officers largely upon
length of service.

COAL LOADING INCREASE
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE
Main Boost in Output Is in Penn
sylvania, Ohio and West
Virginia.

A steady upward trend in move
ment of coal from the mines of the
nation is shown in the latest reports
on coal loadings made public yester-
day by the Geological Survey. While
loadings on Thursday, the last report
ed day, totaled 1913 cars, this figure,
government officials estimated, would
be exceeded this week with reopen
ing of mines in Pennsylvania and the
west and southwest. On Monday Of
last week 1908 carswere loaded, the
largest total for any day since the
beginning of the nation wide mine
strike. Loadings dropped to 17,772
cars on Tuesday; but rose to 1S,1S9
Wednesday and to 1918 Thursday.
with larger Increased predicted for
Friday and the halliday Saturday.
The increase in production this week
is chiefly in central Pennsylvania,
western Pennsylvania. the Panhandle
and Fairmont districts of West Vir-
ginia and Ohio, in which districts,
collectively, the daily production rate
exceeds by $4,000 tons, or 100 per
cent, that of the week previous.
In western Kentucky there has been
marked recovery and production is
now at the same rate as in June, the
Geological Survey reported. In the
coal fields Of the transmississippi
states and the far western states
there was reported continued but slow
increase in production.
