Chicago.—A committee of managers of western railroads will file with the United States rail labor board a peti tion asking that the board annul an agreement entered into December 18 by the Southern Pa< "fie system and its engineers and firemen by which the men were granted an increase in wages. The petition alleges that the de- ciston was forced upon the railroad “under threat of an interruption of ' transportation." and declares that "other railways may also be forced. In I order to avoid Interruption of trims- portion service, to make similar settlements.” The petition further sets forth that the settlement direct ly tends to make nectssury an ad vance« In railway rates In western ter- ritqry. The managers cull attention to an order of the board dated November J9 covering the dispute between most of the western railroads and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire man and Enginemen, by which the board awarded an increase of about 6 per cent in wages but made this In crease conditional upon modification of working conditions and rules which the railways contended were restric- ' tive and unnecessarily increased oper ating expenses. The committee says that the South ern Pacific settlement was made with out reference to changes In rules as provided in the decision of November 29.

Cleaver, state prohibition commissioner, who led a raid on the British vessel London Merchant, seizing a quantity of the ship’s liquor, and who was charged by the federal government with illegal search and seizure, returned all liquor seized.
