Impatient over the delay in the pending negotiations with the railway officials regarding a 24 per cent increase in wages, the 2.400 telegraphers of the Southern Railway Company, their representatives say. are lined up ready to strike at the first general call. H. O. Alexander, chairman of the southern division of the National Order of Railway Telegraphers, who has made frequent trips to Washington in the la.-.t month, negotiating with the official!, with no result, returned this morning from North Carolina, where he has been enlisting the support of other departments of the road in case the order is issued to the telegraphers to walk out. Demands of Telegraphers. Mr. Alexander said today regarding his associates: "They have waited patiently for* a month, and now the time has come when the officials must either grant us a reasonable increase or face a strike. By a reasonable increase I mean, if not the 24 ner cent. something so near that amount that the men will be satisfied. We have been offered 5 per cent increase, but that is so ridiculously small that on the scale of $30 salary the increase would be only $2.50 a month, which it is impossible for us even to consider. A study of the net earnings of the railroad will convince any one that we are justified in a greater increase. Nothing short of what we term a reasonable increase will make us change our minds. If it is possible I wish 10 conduct these negotiations amicably, as It is to our advantage to do so." No Statement From Officials. K. ii Coapman. vice president and general manager of the company, who has charge of the negotiations, has returned to Washington. He has not yet met the representatives of the telegraphers. In regard to the threatened strike the officials refuse to make any statement, beyond saying that when the time comes to decide the question one way or the other they will be fully prepared. Mr. Coapman was too busy to be seen, and no information could be gained as to when the negotiations will be resumed. This is expected, though, at almost any time. Mr. Coapman is favorably disposed to .the telegraphers, and it Is Mr. Alexander's belief that he wilt give them fair treatment in the negotiations. Willing to Go Out. Mr. Alexander recently ordered a secret strike vote taken, with a result that the telegraphers unanimously favored strtking at the first sign that their demands will not be met by the railway officials. Mr. Alexander within the past two days sent off about thirty letters to representatives of the telegraphers iu various parts of the south. He urged the men to be in rc&diaess in ease of necessity, as only one word from Mr. Coapman will tie necessary to convince him which way the negotiations vill end. Mr. Alexander said that he mailed the letters to the meat prominent leaders ot the telegraphers, stating that the minds of the committeemen were already made up on the strike question, and that upon the return of Mr. Coapman lie would push the negotiations. The telegraphers have been offered support from the national order organization should they strike, and tneir finances arc in good shape. The telegraphers will not consider the question of submitting their grievances to an arbitration board, which the railroad nfti ciu to uiah tn Ar\ Tli^. 4alA>?wrtV>Ac? I v...v . i?- w. ? r ic?r^ i <j^iir;' O say that arbitration would only cause a longer delay In the negotiations, and that j Is what they wish to avert. Daniel D.

Downs of engine company No. ?, who were killed Saturday while fighting a lire, has been received by Chief Wagner of the fire department from George w. Horton, tire chief in Baltimore. "Aicept my deepest sympathy in your teirible calamity." was the message from the Baltimore chief. From F. \V. Plugge. secretary of the Washington Tobacco company, Chief Wagner received the following: "The brave and efficient work of your men in fighting the fire which destroyed our place of business is worthy of the highest commendation, and we wish to express, through you, our appreciation of their efforts, which doubtless saved the adjoining property. While regretting the pecuniary loss attending this fire, we feel more deeply the loss of life and the physical suffering of our brave inen, and most deeply do we sorrow at the deaths of Capt. Brown and Private Downs Our sincere sympathy to the bereaved families is extended through you. God alone can assuage their grief." Police Express Sympathy. AJaj. Sylvester, chief of police, sent Chief Wagner the following message of condolence: "You and your men have the heartfelt sympathy of myself and associates in your sad bereavements. In the face of this sad lesson would a great gov> ernrnent hesitat" to provide a full pension .allowance for the sorrowing widow and children ? for husband and father who fell in the discharge of a public service, and for those who must be visited by like calamities in th*? future? I went home from the Are sick at heart." Chief Wagner has received a message from Dr. Henry W. Jaeger, head resident physician at the Casualty Hospital, asking that the hospital be advised in the future of all fires which necessitate the sounding of a second alarm. The ambulance will make a quick response In all such instances. Dr. Jaeger write, and much time will be saved in getting fire victims to the hospital. Responding to the suggestion made by Chief Wagner yesterday, the widows of the dead firfmen consented to have a double funeral tomorrow morning. Rev. M. J. Kennedy, one of the assistant pastors of St. Dominic's Church, will officiate at requiem mass, which will be sung at 9 o'clock in the church. He will also accompany the bodies to Mount Olivet cemetery, where they will be buried. Selected as Pallbearers. Those who are to serve as pallbeirers ior capt. urown are: <Japt. f. J.

Members of Keane Council, Knights of Columbus, of which Capt. Brown was a member, will also be in attendance. Fire department officials say they fear the condition of the pension fund may be such as to deprive the widows of the funeral allowance of $73 each, at least M . . j t_ ror some unic 10 come, ana u is reasonably certain that thev will not be able to get the amounts *ne Commissioners will lix as their pensions. Discussing the question of pensions for the families of the two llremen, Chief Wagner said today he favored giving them substantial pensions. In the ease of Capt.

Have Supported Parents. It has heen the custom of the department to give childless widows of llremen a pension of a month, the chief stated. hut in the case of Mrs. Downs he thinks a greater amount should he given. He lias concluded to recommend a pension of $30 for her. While she lias no children, she and her husband have been supporting Mr. Downs' parents, and she will continue to assist them. Capt. Brown was a member of the relief association, which will pay the widow Sl.oOO. She has already been advanced $100 of the amount. Downs was not a member of Hie association. About two years ago he dropped out because he felt that he was unable to pay the extra assessments. the demands upon ills salaryhaving been so great. A. C.

Isaac Cans. manager of Saks & Co s store, wrote Chief Wagner this morning that he would give employment, if desired. to Timothy Brown. eldest son of Capt. Brown. The boy is fifteen years old. Mr. Gans also promised to do what he could to have the pension fund p'acvd upon a substantial basis. Urge Congress to Act. The need of appropriation by Congress to establish a fire and police pension fund, which shall be adequate to pay the pensions authorized by the present law. to firemen, policemen an" their families, will be discussed at a meeting of the j Board of Trade committee on publk ! order ?his afternoon. The committee, of wlt'.eh Walter A Brown Is chairman, will take the matter up particularly with reference to the deaths of t'apt. Brown and Private Downs. Mr. Brown s-aid today that his committee and the Board of Trade had recommended for several years that Congress appropriate for an adequate pension fund which would permit the retirement of members of the (ire and police departments when they were disaided or superannuated on pensions, which would Ik paid always in full. Capt. James F. Oyster, president of the Chamber of Commerce, declared that the chamber wou'd make special effort at the coming session of Congress to have a measure passed for adeepiate pensions for the police and fire departments. "The present pension fund is now in a bad state," said Capt. Oyster. "It 1$ not sufficient to provide for the famHIes of the men whose lives have been lost trying to protect the city's property."

STRONG CANDIDATE NEEDED Ex-Senator Writes to Secretary of Progressive Campaign. # DOUBTS LA FOLLETTE POWER i New Hampshire Statesman Says Hesitation in Present Crisis Will Be Fatal. Former Senator William K. Chandler of New Hampshire, one of the leaders in -the successful progressive movement in New Hampshire, upon being invited to attend the Chicago assemblage of progressives, in session today, who aim to nominate Senator La Follette for the presidency, sent this reply to Seeretarv Homier nf ?hn ram. palgn committee: "Waterloo. N. H.. October 7, 1911. "My Hear Mr. Houser: "Your letter of the 4.th is received and is frankly expressed, as I was sure It would be. If I knew of progressive republicans in New Hampshire who were, ready to declare publicly for Mr. La Follette I would ask them to go to Chicago the 16th. In view of the statements of your present letter 1 think the three progressives who have been asked to attend will conclude not to go?not being prepared to avow that Mr. La Follette is their decided choice at the present time for the presidential nomination. "For myself I say that Senator La Follette has been my personal choice for the last five years. If I could feel sure that he would be the strongest candidate in 1912 I would now advocate his nomination?whatever my action might be worth. In Harness Since 1856. "I have done service more, or less for all republican candidates for President, beginning in 18.V5. I am now anxious to help in another republican national victory. But the prospects are doubtful; and the desires of men should be subordinated to the clear necessities of the canvass. Between Senator L?a Follette and President Taft I think we should select the one most likely to?be elected. Moreover, I do not see why there may not appear a candidate who is more likely than either to be elected by the people; If so, he shouid be nominated. **I will not allow myself to believe that any objectionable candidate will be selected, or that there will be any affirmative or negative mistake in the platform, so as to require any republican, however earnest or conscientious, to refrain from supporting the program of the national convention. So you see that for almost the first time in my life in connection with an approaching presidential nomination I am as to candidates an opportunist. "The republican party does not show any record of its fifty-five years of life which should now cause Its defeat. It opposed slavery extension, maintained the Union in civil war, abolished slavery; and since those great days has controlled the government during a national career of marvelous glory. Some Mistakes Made. "Unfortunately, while encouraging and promoting magnificent material prosperity and noble intellectual and moral growth, it has permitted to arise a system of monopolies destroying competition, of corporations violating indispensable laws and of malefactors of great wealth, unduly aggrandizing their own class and oppressing the masses of the people; and. to make all secure, taking possession by censurable methods of the state and national governments. "Thiw mtatakAK nf hr> nurtv it hfts set about correcting: while under the lead of President Roosevelt and President Taft?each at times with serious faults, and faltering sometimes Jn faith and duty; but always professing desire and intention to carry to completion every needed reform in government and politics. Should the party unduly hesitate it will go out of power. It is now in immediate peril. I hope and believe that republicans of all opinions will manage to get together in state and nation and adopt platforms and nominate candidates such as will give the party of Lincoln and Grant. Garfield and McKinley, a longer lease of power. "With some pride I point to the record of the republican party in New Hampshire in the nomination and election of Gov. Bass in 1910. Its republicans?bbth progressive and old-guard republicansintend by wisdom and forbearance, as well as active effort, to make sure republican victory In the state In 191J and to do their full duty in the presidential contest. Very truly, "WILLIAM E. CHANLER." MB. JOERISSEN HONORED. Gets Decoration From the French Government. To Carl A.
