Tho threatened rait way strike took on such a grave as pect that President Wilson turned toward congress tor a solution ot the problem. With the railway executives stand ing firm against conceding tho eight hour day and Hie brotherhood leaders, standlug out against arbitrating It, the hope ot preventing a tie-up of the country's transportation.' systems seemed to Ho with congress. The hope of the president and ad ministration leaders was in tho possi bility ot getting tho brothorhood men to give more time to continue the ne gotiations. It Is reliably reported that the strike order which the chairmen car ried In sealed envelopes when they left Washington Is to enter into ef fect on September 4, unless an agree ment should be reached prior to that date. The four brotherhood heads Issued a statement replying to President Rea, of the Pennsylvania, who made an announcement that rather than give up to arbitration the roads preferred to face a strike. The statement charg ed the Pennsylvania with inconsist ency in that two years ago it fought the efforts ot Its shopmen to organize and arbitrate. It also declared that as the controlling Interest In five small roads it has refused them repre sentation on the managers' conference committee and that if arbitration were agreed upon it would apply to these roads.' U. 8. to Havs Huge Guns. Army ordnance experts are at work on designs for huge field howitzers as large or larger than the German I'-'-centimeter guns which wrecked Bel gian and French forts early in the war. They will be at least 16-lnch caliber with a range of 12 to IS miles, hurling a projectile weighing more than a ton and carrying a huge amount of high explosives. In addition to placing several of these mammoth weapons along the coast line for mo bile defense against naval attack army officials now are considering the creation of a special regiment equip ped with six of the howitzers to work as a unit ot the mobile army. The problem confronting the designers In that regard is to distribute the enor mous weight of the gun and carriage in such a way that it can be moVed over any good road. ' ' - Limit on Income Tax Unchanged. A proposal to lower the present In come tax exemption, written Into the administration revenue bill by the senate finance committee and then stricken out when house leaders indi cated they would not accept It, was voted down 31 to 19 by the senate, when Senator Underwood offered It as an amendment. The amendment, which would have lowered the exemption by $1000, mak ing the normal income tax apply to incomes of $3000 for married persons and $2000 for unmarried persons, 're ceived the support of only five demo cratic senators. They were Senators Bankhead, Hardwick, Lane, O'Gormao and Underwood. TURKISH ADVANCE STOPPED Initiative la Regained by Czar's Cau casian Army. Petrograd, via London. The Turk ish attempt to encircle the- left flank of the Russian-Caucasian army ap pears to have received a crushing blow between the troops of Grand Duke Nicholas in the region of Lake Van. The Turkish encircling scheme, aimed at regaining Erzerum and thus nullifying all the grand duke's vic tories in Turkish Armenia, appeared about to succeed, but the Russian oc cupation of MuBh and re-establish-ment of Russian positions west of Lake Van apparently have made hope less the Turkish efforts. The Initiative now appears again to be with the Russians at all Important points In Asia Minor, and now that the Turiksh offensive on the left flank has been stopped, Grand Duke Nicho las can continue his march toward Asia Minor.
