Recognition of Rank Before
Going ' Hack.
WASHINGTON, June 22. A report
on the railroad strike situation was
laid before President Wilson at to
day's cabinet meeting by Secretary
Payne, acting In his capacity as director-general
of the railway admin
istration, but action was delayed after
President Wilson had declared that
the situation was so Improved that
no action was necessary by the gov
ernment. The general opinion in the cabinet
was that since the wage award of
the railway labor board when made
would be retroactive to May 1, other
action would be unnecessary unless
the strike took a far more serious
turn. ,
PHILADELPHIA, June 22. The
peak of the- railroad strike in this
city is believed to have been reached,
and it is reported that 800 strikers
will return to work tonight.
The strike apparently has been
checked, although Ftrike leaders say
a big walkout will come Friday.
Railway officials say some strikers
returned to their posts- today and
there was a slight improvement in
freight movement. It was reported
that Governor Sproul contemplates
sending a request to the United Slates
railroad labor board, asking an imme
diate decision on the demands for In
creased wages.
Large numbers of loaded coal cars
are accumulating in the anthracite
region. Coal dealers say coal held up
r.ow because of lack of shipping
facilities cannot be replaced as the
market is millions of tons behind.
Merchants in Pennsylvania cities af
fected by the freight embargo are
pressing motor trucks , into service.
Only foodstuffs are being thus trans
ported. ,
WATERBURY. Conn.. June 22.
Strike conditions here seemed to be
better today. Luigi Scalmana. pres

association, the body of unskilled
workers of the brass factories who
have been on strike for ten weeks. Is
sued a notice to the strikers that
married men would be permitted to
return to work., while single men
must remain out.
CHICAGO. June 22. The "railway
vacationists" men iwho quit' work
April 1 in defiance of the regularly
recognized brotherhoods today sent
a letter to President Wilson notifying
him that the strikers will accept no
settlement which does not provide for
their return to the seniority rank
held before they quit work.

KERR V CASE DECISION.
Very probably his wife has . thrown
her Influence into the balance in
favor of the present decision. In the
common way of looking at such mat
ters one Is unable to understand why
any woman should forego the oppor
tunity to be mistress of the White
House. But if you had been In the
White House as a daughter; if you
had seen your mother die there "and
your father broken in health, and
otherwise given cause for acute un
happiness. you would understand the
other side of it.
Palmer-Cox. Contest On. .
-Omitting the consideration of duty,
the sane and wholesome point of view
which aims toward the most intelli
gent management of one individual's
personal life would lead Mr. and Mrs.
McAdoo toward just the decision they
have taken in favor of the comforts
of a competence and those satisfac
tions of family and children that go
with private life.
The consequences of the decision on
the course of the convention are, of
course, obvious. - It leaves Palmer and
Cox the chief contenders, with theii
relative strength Buch as to make
probable a" tug-of-war much more
rigid and long drawn out than the
one which arose between Wood and
Lowden at Chicago.
HAGUE GQUHTTD CONTINUE
TRIBUNAL- AVILL FUNCTION AS
FORMERLY, BELIEVED.
League of Nations Jurists Consider
Dovetailing Plans of Root,
Descamps.
THE HAGUE, June 22. (By the
Associated Press.) Discussions of
the commission of jurists today
strengthened the theory that the ex
isting Hague arbitration tribunal
will not be abolished if a high court
of nations is formed, but, on the
contrary, tliat the tribunal will not
only function as formerly, but have
a considerable part in selecting the
high court judges.
The commission took under con
sideration today the possibility of
dovetailing the Root-Philllmore plan
with the plan proposed by Baron Des
camps, for which a method was sug
gested by Mr. Root.
Though the efforts of the jurists
working on the draft plan of the
court of nations are entirely unaf
fected. by politics, the delegates have
been subjected to the usual flood of
letters from organizations seeking to
force national aspirations into the
limelight.
All these letters are cast side, as
the members are firmly determined
that their duty is merely to form a
court.
v The first Hague tribunal arbitra
tion since the war will take place in
September next, with Mr. Root as
chairman of the arbiters. This has
to do with a litigation begun before
the war, involving Spain, France.

of responsibility for damage to

County Commissioners Have Sole
Authority to Rcqulatc Rates
in Matters.
OLTMPIA, Wash., June 22. (Spe
cial.) Right of the public service
commission to exercise jurisdiction
over ferry service and rates Is denied
by the supreme court in a decision
written by Judge Mount and con
curred in by seven associate justices.
Chief Justice O. R. Holcomb filed a
dissenting opinion. The decision is
rendered in a mandamus action
brought by James Allen, state high
way commissioner, to compel the pub
lic service commission to exercise
jurisdiction In the regulation of rales
and service of ferries. The commis
sion refused to act, claiming that un
der the statutes exclusive jurisdic
tion is vested in the county commis
sioners of the counties in which the
ferries operate.
The court holds the only legal ques
tion involved is whether the public
service commission law passed by the
legislature in 1911 repealed by impli
cation existing sections of the code
relating to ferries. In the opinion of
the court, failure of the legislature to
expressly Include ferries within juris
diction conferred upon the commis
sion, and the fact that amendments
to the .ferry laws were made by the
legislature subsequently to the pas
sage of the public service commission
law, would Indicate it was not the
purpose of the lawmaking body to re
peal the ferry law. and aDoarsntlv it
was convinced that ferries, being local
to the counties in which they are sit
uated, could be as well regulated b
county commissioners as by the pub
lic eervice commission.

Birds of a Feather Flock

' Years ago the New York Sun spoke of a certain
play as "the kind Of a play that will be enjoyed by
the kind of people who enjoy this kind of a play."
It is possible to judge hundreds of thousands
of people in a rough, approximate way by studying
the publications they elect to buy and read.
This is more often true in the choice of national
periodicals, because in many cities a newspaper
must be taken without a range of selection.
For the purpose of commercial generalization,
a study of a magazine itself is the best way of
picturing the composite reader.
The familiar exception of the college professor "
who finds mental relaxation in the shilling shocker
or the anaemic bookkeeper who feeds on virile
tales of men inevitably described as "red-blooded",
upsets a nicety of application as an invariable rule.
However, no questionnaire, or other method of
investigation of a circulation, leads to as safe a
generalization as may be made after a study of
the magazine itself.

Published Interview.
CINCINNATI. O.. June 22. Colonel
William Cooper Procter made public
today a telegram of apology he re
ceived from Nicholas Murray Butler,
presfdent of Columbia university, sent
in answer to Procter's demand to
know whether or not Mr. Butler had
been accurately quoted in a published
interview in which he was purported
to have declared that gamblers and
stock market players were General
Wood's principal backers in his cam
paign for the republican presidential
nomination. Dr. Butler's telegram
follows:
"Answering your telegram of June
15, I am convinced that my words,
spoken under the strain, turmoil and
fatigue of the Chicago convention and
in sharp revolt against the power of
money in politics, were both unbecom
ing and unwarranted, and that I
should and do apologize to each and
every one who felt hurt by what I
said."
