A MJtEAT LMUrn t'ONFKUKME
The conferenco of railroad repre
sentatives and rallrqud employees now
In progress Is something unlquo In
the lilKtory of bor disputes. There
are vast issues .t stake. TJie four
great railroad hrHherhoodB are de
manding a basic eight-hour working
day, with time and a half for over
time, und certain other concessions. \
The transportation lines Bay that to
grant (hose demands would mean nu
adltional outlay or $100,000 .000 a
year. There are Invbjyejl 360,000 em
ploy?es earning $1,375,000,000 a y?nr,
and 2?9 railroads operating 250000
miles of track, with a grosB business
of sob,** than $3,000.000,000 a year.
Neither side wants a strike. Neither
side wants arbitration, except as a
InBt resort. The two parties are try
ing to settle the mattre between them
hcIvcs. And they have made ready
for the tug of war on an unparalleled
scale.
A committee representing all the
inilroads In the country hoa prepared
elaborate documents and exhibits cov
ering every phase of tho dispute and
every question that Is likely to arise.
Against the wits and evidence of this
committco are matched the best brains
of the railroad unions, with similar
exhibits. There aro 800 represen
tatives of the union from all over, the
country held in readiness to give ex
pert testimony in behalf of their broth
erhods reparding any point that may
be raised: Both sides hope that the
whole controversy will be threshed
out aud settled fpr good beforo the
conferenco adjourn;'.
This looks llko an Ideal way to fro
about the settlement of a labor dis
pute. Tho proceeding*- will be watch
ed and the outcome awaited with un
usual interest, not merely because of
the practical Importance of tho re
sult to the whole nation but because
of the admirable precedent thnt will
he established If the conference fulfills
It? purpose
THE THIKI) PARTY
There UBed to be a feeling that In
a strike there w?ro only two parties
coucornod, tho employers and tho em
ployes. Each thought the othor In
the wrong and'believed In stubbornly
contesting tho issue with no thought
for consequences outsldo the group
immediately affected. But a new al
titude is now arising. This'concerns
Itself with tho public, which, no mut
ter which of the two oposlng parties
is victorious, always loses and always
siirfvrs from the strike)
~A man f es to recently Issued upon
tho garment-workers lookout in New
York indicates this plainly. It dia
cuajfes the public "i?teroats Involved"
and declares them of superior moment
even than those of the workers, who,
in this case Of broken agreement, have
been manifestly treated unjustly.
There ought to be some means of
obviating .these- Interruptions to pro
ductive activity. Everybody 'suffers
from them, and the intelligence of
Amor lea ought to nrnrugp so mo' less
costly method of securing tho rights
of labor.
STANDING THE TEST
' ' -?
A good many business men are
atnnding the 'acid test" referred to by
President Wilson in a recent address.
More then 800 Industrial, financial,
commercial and public service corpo
rations, employjng over 1.000,000 men-,'
have agreed to allow n reasonaole
number of their employees to r/iiehd
military training camps thlp suUiiaer
without loss of pay or opportunity for
advancement.
That seoms#& good, answer to the
accusation that American business in
terest, whilo demanding prepareduct/s
measures, were -themselves unwilling
to make sacrifices for the national
defeusb. The answer >7l!l bo wholly
convincing when all tho other big
corporations follow suit.

trios to get a quick rosponae, a ready]

pronounced on him earlier by Su

die the week of July 10.
Smiling the prlnoncr took the1
hand cf Deputy Sheriff Thomas
Burke, who for the last month ban
bad charge of him whenever he baa
left the Tombs, and said:
"Goodby. Thank you for all your
kindness to me. We will meet agai.i
?not here, perhaps, but in the here
after."
Still with a smile that waa almost
a grin he went with a keeper through
the gateway and ' the iron door
clanged behind him. Then Arthur
W. Waite ceased to be a personality
and became simply No. 07,281. It
took perhaps half an hour to bathe
him, shave him and. give him a suit
of prison clothes preparatory to send
ing him to the cell which he i3 now
occupying in the reconstructed death
house.
Lettern to the Pecks.
Almost his last act outside the
prison wa? to give three letters to the
deputy and ask that they bo mailed
as soon as Burke ' had returned to
New York. The letters wero ad
dressed to Percy ' Peck, Miss Clara
Louise 'Peek?who will .be bis wlfo
until her divorce decree is mado final
?and to Miss Catherine A. Peck, her
aiint.
He told Detective John Cunlffo
that his message to his wife erpre??*
e.d his sincere sorrow for all the suf
fering he had caused her and begged
for forgiveness. To a reporter Waite
indicated that tho oth^r letters were
of the same character.
For tho trip to Sing Sing Walte
was handcuffod to Leo James, con
victed of robbery.

"You don't need to tako mo.'

The Decorations,
The decorations of the Coliseum
were designed by Edward C. Dil I man
of St Louis. In order to obtain as,
much daylight as posaible, the. walls
of the Collaeum were painted white.
To get the full benefit of the reflect
ion it was necessary to exclude dec
orations- from the walls. The deco
rations, accordingly have been paced*
around the front of the balcony and
baxea and on the supporting columns
that run around the-building.
Plaster relief medallions of Wash
ington, JefferBon, Cleveland and WU-'
son, each 4 by 3 feet, are placed, on'
the supporting columns clear around,
tho building, and each medallion la
uurrounded by American flagB The
{'columns are, covered with bunting,
;and the boxes are.bung. with.th? nat-.,
lonal colors. To Improve the light
reflect ion, six thousand yards of white '
nlu&lin cover the celling, except'for
a strip down the center which Is hung
in tho national colors. Altogether
-30,000 yards of bunting were used In
the. decoration of tue convention hall
and 600 to 700 American flaga. The
