Ill Wilf.'ii has unexpectedly stiuinioned the railway presidents to rotifer as:ain this afternoon. They accepted the invitation unwillingly, as tliey hail other plans. Fourteen western execu tives have arrived here. The Bio brotherhood representatives ronferred main and announced that their plans were unchanged. The treasury de partment reported that crops are now ready for transportation and a rail road strike wouiu proem .i..,, ....... tneiits and cause many tnillons of dol- lars of loss, besides reducniK many cities to famine rations. Acceptance is Doubtful. Forty railroad presidents met l'resi-1 dent Wilson at 2:3" tins nfternuun. ! The conference lasied hair an Hour, i I mill ili.ittly Afterward the railroad presidents conferred privately ami Lamed a final answer to Wilson's pro-i posit Is. It is understood that Wilson made an impassioned appeal and ; urged the magnates to "keep the rail-i roads running, not only in this coun- try".; interests, but in order to meet' the entire world's demands." It is un- derstood the railway presidents were' not unanimous in favor of flatly ref us-j ins Wilson's proposition. A large sentiment favors such action, but j others counsel the acceptance of the eight-hour day. pending the interstate j " commerce commission's investigation.! Manufacturers Make Appeal. Yesterday the President received an appeal from George Pope, president j of the National Association of manu-l faciuiers. urging that the principle of arbitration be preserved. Mr. Pope's, telegram follows: j Hartford. C.r.r... Ay 10.. 1!16. The President, the While House: Un behalf of 37011 manufacturing organi zations employing 3.himu persons and utterly dependent upon uninter rupted railrond service in their con tinued operation. I beg now to express our deep appreciation of your efforts to prevent the threatened destructive stoppage of National railroad service and to urge respectively that you will, with all the power of your great office personally assert and maintain th principle of arbitration affecting Na tional interests. No just demand can fear such a test: no unfair demand mm or should survive it. I sincerely beit e no man in our history has pos-?t--;sed such an opportunity to fortify this essential principle nf public se curity arainst future attack by em plover or employe." President Sends Reply. The president replied: "Allow me to acknowledge the re ceint of vour telegram of Augpst 10. and say in reply that 1 hold to the principle nf arbitration with as clear a conviction and as firm a purposi nnyr.-.p. but that unfortunately then is no means now in existence by w hich arbitral ion can he secured. Kx Istine means have been tried and have failed. This situation must never be 1 allowed to arise again, but it has ari.-en. Some means must be found to prevent its recurrence, but no means f an be found off hand or in a hurry or in season to meet the present Nation al emergency." "What I am prnnosinc does no' weaken or descredit the principle of arbitration. It sf lengthens ft. ra'her. It propoioOhat nothine be conceded except the eight -hour dav. to whi"h the whole economic movement of thp , lime seems to point, and th1 immedi ate creation of agency for deterrnin ine all th arbitrable elements in this case in th light, not of the pp .
