Episcopal clergymen and laymen at the general convention prayed yesterday for the settlement of the railroad strike. The action came at the end of the afternoon when a resolution was in troduced at the joint session of bishops and deputies setting the hour of 10 this, morning for earnest prayers by the convention for suc cess in mediation efforts soheduled for today. It was suggested that difference in time might mean , that prayer would be offered here after the con ference between rail h?ads and striking shopmen, and it was decid ed best to offer the prayer at the end of the afternoon session yester day. This was done. Dr. James E. Free man of the dioceseof Washington, D. C, reading from the prayer book One was the accepted prayer for so- clal justice; the other a new collect that has not yet formally been adopted into the church ritual. Audience Heads Boned. The big audience of America's most prominent clergy of the Epis copal faith in America and hundreds of laymen noted for their devotion to the church stood reverently with bowed heads as Dr. Freeman read: "Oh Lord, who has taught us that all our doings without love are nothing worth, send thy holy ghost and pour into the hearts of men that most excellent guest of love, the very bond of peace and of " vir . tues, without which whosoever liveth is counted dead before thee. Grant this for thine only son, Jesus Christ's sake.". From the audience came a deep and fervent "Amen." "Almighty God, who hast created man in thine image," intoned Dr. Freeman, "grant us grace fear lessly to control against evil and to make no peace with oppression; and, that we may reverently use our freedom, help us to employ it in the maintenance of justice among men and nations to the glory of thine holy name; through Jesus Christ, our Lord." Aain the big audience, in very reverent mood indeed, judging from the deep silence of the auditorium as Dr. Freeman prayed, breathed a deep "Amen." Dismissal of the joint session followed at once. IVewolutlon I Introduced. The resolution to pray for indus trial peace in the transportation world was introduced by Courteney Barbur, of Chicago, prominent lay man high in Episcopal councils and a leader in the Brotherhood of St. Andrew. He predicated his resolu tion upon a dispatch that railroad executives and representatives of striking railroad workers would meet today in an endeavor to effect a strike settlement. The resolution , read: '. "Resolved, That both houses of the general Episcopal convention engage in earnest prayer at 10 A. M, Saturday, September 9. the imme diate object being to invoke the God of love and peace for his blessing and guidance upon the deliberations of railway executives and their former employes assembled in con ference upon that day and seeking mediation and settlement of the railroad strike." Chairman Freeman said that un less it should be desired to con sider the resolution by unanimous consent, he would be compelled to declare its- admission out of order, since it was far from being re lated to the matter under considera tion, chiefly that of church finance. At once Bishop Benjamin Brew- ster of Maine was on his feet and I tCcncluded on Page 1-'. Column 2.) J Representative Wants Village to Appear as It Did In Days AVhen Emancipator Was Surveyor. (By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.) WASHINGTON, D.' C. Sept. 8. Federal control and restoration of Old Salem, 111., a few miles from the state- capital at Springfield, is pro vided for in a bill introduced by Representative Shaw (Illinois), a measure which would restore the town to its architecture as it was in the days when Abraham Lincoln held wrestling matches in the vil lage streets. The Shaw bill directs that the government shall restore the old mill, the tavern, the village store, the log houses, just as they were when Lincoln was a young surveyor and the village store keeper. Old Salem is in Menard county, a few miles north of Springfield, in whieh city is Lincoln's old home and his tomb. Little is known of what first at tracted Lincoln to Old Salem, but the story is told that while he was a young "man Lincoln was boating on the Sagamon river to team if it was navigable. Something on land attracted his attention. He climbed the bluff and came upon tlie village of Old Salem. So charmed was he with the surroundings that he de cided to locate there.

ATLANTIC, CITY, N. J., Sept. 8. (Special. The grand finale of the 1922 pageant was reached at mid night with the crowning of Miss Columbus (Mary - Katherine Camp bell of Columbus, O.) as Miss Amer ica at the million-dollar pier where she was selected from among nine other contestants as the most beau tiful bathing girl in America. The selection was made in the finals of the third annual Atlantic. City pageant. She takes the title, "Miss Amer ica," and the $5000 golden, mermaid, emblematic of the championship, from Miss Margaret Gorman, Wash ington, D." C, winner of last year's contest. Miss Campbell is of athletic build and has ldng curly auburn hair. She was a general favorite from the first appearance of the 57 inter city beauties. Beauty very little adorned was again the keynote . of the pageant this afternoon when young America in her bathing suit marched along the sun warmed sands of" Atlantic City's famous strand in the spectac ular bathers'., revue. The 57 inter city beauties were on" hand as usual and attracted the lion's share of at tention from the gallery of more than 50,000 people that lined the rails of the boardwalk and beach. The beauties looked their prettiest in their bathing1 suits and smiled and bowed continually as they marched single file at the rear of the parade. Miss Portland wore a blue Annette Kellerman with white bell, and had the insignia of Portland across her breast. At the terminus of the l'ne of march Miss Virginia Edwards was conducted to the stage of the music hall on the steel pier, where in her turn she ascended the steps to the stage and gracefully bowed to King Neptune and his court of beauties. The judging was conducted by process of elimination which finally resulted in the selection of Miss Macon, Miss Columbia and Miss New York. These -three beauties com- peted later in the evening with win ners of other divisions which were narrowed down to three in number. For the first time since the official opening of the 1922 pageant ' Miss America descended from her throne beside that of King Neptune to vie with the other three beauties' for the grand prize, "the Golden Mermaid.' Tomorrow evening a post-pageant affair will be held in the ballroom of the steel pier, which will be the scene of the judging of those en tered in the national beauty tourna ment possessed of the best screen features. The Famous Players Lasky corporation, in conjunction with the Stanley corporation of America, has agreed to offer the winner of this contest an oppor tunity to display her talents in mo tion pictures.

Governor and Senator Independents Unlikely. PRIVATE BOOMS ARE DYING Johnson Gives No Promise to Change Old Tactics. POPULARITY IS WANING State Job-Holders Are Rallying to Support Richardson for Governorship. BY SHAD O. KRANTZ. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Sept. 8. (Special.) Prospective independent candidates for governor and United States senator are becoming less "prospective" now that it has been discovered that the California law makes it extremely difficult for an independent to get his name on the ballot. While it requires only one per cent of the total electorate of the state to bring out an independent candidate, all persons who voted at the recent primaries are debarred from signing such candidate's peti tion. The theory of the law, of course, is that those persons who failed to vote at the primaries or who were unable to vote for some reason might be disatisfied with the re sults and want to bring out can didates of their own; but the ef fect is 'practically to confine the contest at the general election to the regular party nominees. And that probably is as it ought to be, anyway. Private Booms Started. But it seems that few people were aware of the nature of the law, or had forgotten about it any way, until just the other day when some legal shark brought it to light; even Ray" Benjamin, republi can state chairman, was found dis cussing the possibility of independ ent candidates, but after the law was pointed out to him, gladly corrected himself. I Meanwhile, several private booms were brought out and partly de veloped; Clyde Seavy, city' manager of Sacramento, and James Rolph, mayor of San Rrancisco, were be ing ''mentioned" in connection with the governorship, and ex-Representative William Kent for the senatorship. But the peculiar nature of the law, if no other reason, makes it vastly improbable -that these or any other independents will be brought into the campaign. Time for Race Short. Furthermore, the time between now and the November election is short, and the regular republican nominees are rather formidable in political strength. That means, obviously, that un less some issue is injected into the campaign or some political acci dent happens. Friend W. Richard son and Hiram W. Johnson will be I elected governor and United States senator, respectively, at the forth coming election. &o rar as Johnson s election to succeed himself in the senate is concerned, it will have little ef fect on the. people of California. He has been there for five and a half years now and the people know Just about what to expect of him. He gives no promise of changing his tactics. His majority over Moore was just big enough to make him feel a little chesty, and he is just obstinate enough not to read in the tremendous vote that Moore got any element of protest against his failure to support the Harding administration and against his seeming alliance with Hearst. So Johnson in the next six years can be expected to 'be Just about the same Johnson he has been for the last five or six. Expense Cut Promised. But at the state house in Sacra mento things probably .will be a bit different. Friend Richardson was nominated on an "economy" plat form, and he is going to start his administration, he says, by cutting expenses. But he assures the pres ent force of state employes that he is not going to indulge in any wholesale house cleaning. Wherever a man or woman is making good and the services performed are necessary, there will be no change. Quite a sigh of relief went up among the state employes when Richardson sent out this statement from his vacation retreat at Long Beach the other day, and about the same time the talk of an independ ent candidate began to die down. This talk had originated the day after the primary among some of the friends and supporters of Gov ernor Stephens who were bitter against Richardson for no other reason, apparently, than that he had won the nomination. They had ex pected to rally the state job-holder and their friends to the support of in independent, but it is apparent already that these same job-holders are casting kindly glances in the direction of - Nominee Richardson, (.Concluded on Page 3, Column 3.)

ELDERLY MINER SUICIDE Victim, Mortally Slashed, Found Dying Beside Rude Coffin.

REVOLVER BUTT USED One of Girls Recovers, Escapes and Gives Alarm; Poxkcs and Dogs Take Vp Trail. OLYMPIA, Wash.. Kept. 8 (Spe cial.) Mrs. Harry O'Hare and her four daughter, living in western Thurston county, last night were at tacked and. with Joe O'Hare and Joe Dobson, clubbed and left to die by a man for whom bloodhounds and posses tonight are searching the wooded hills of the county. AJl roads were being watched carefully after the bloodhounds had failed to find the man's trail. Although still in a serious condi tion, it was believed that all of the victims would recover. They are Mrs. Harry O'Hare, 54; Agnes. 25; Theresa, 22; Frances. 14; Joe, 14; Emma, 11, and Joe Dobson, 21. All were severely beaten with the butt of a heavy revolver after the as sailant had attacked the women and just before leaving the house where he had spent the night. Girls Forced to Tie Others. After forcing Teresa to tie all of the other victims with strips torn from the sheets, the man himself tied Teresa. He remained In the O'Hare bedroom from 10 o'clock last night until 2:45 this morning and before departing struck each one of his helpless victims over the head with the butt of his heavy revolver, sending each into unconsciousness. Teresa, regaining consciousness as the assailant was beating the other In another room, escaped from the house and ran a half mllo to the home of Jake Morrow, who gave the alarm. While Mr. Morrow In vestigated, Joe Mote, a neighbor, drove to Olympla where ho noti fied Sheriff Hoage and Chief, of Police Troxell, who with Dr. Ken neth Partlow hastened to th O'Hare place. The story as pieced together from the fragments told by Teresa and Agnes and Joe Dob son is one of the most revolting character. Family la Hound. Teresa O'Hare and Joe Dobsoa. after an evening at the movies In Olympla, returned to the house on the Olympic highway eight miles west of this city about 10 o'clock last night. Leaving Mr. Dolmen's car beside the highway, they entered the O'Hare yard. Almost Immedi ately Dobson was covered by a re volver in the hands of a masked man, who commanded Teresa to tie Dobson's hands behind him with a cord which he supplied. This ac complished he marched the pair Into the house and up to tha bedrooms where Mrs. O'Hare and her other three daughters and son were In bed. One by one ho forced Teresa to tie her mother, sisters and brother after which he himself tied Teresa's hands. The windows of the rooms he covered with heavy blankets to deaden any noise and shield tha amp light from outside. The fiend then demanded money and obtained a small amount, ex actly how much Is not known, from the family pocket books. The re ceipts from the little store which Mrs. O'Hare and her children con ducted near their home as a means of livelihood, had been hidden hy Agnes as she heard the others enter the house and were not found. Women Believed Attacked, Then followed attempts to attack all of the girls and the mother. How much of this design wan accom plished is not positively known but Dr. Partlow, who Is attending the injured women, said he believed all of the women had been victims. The next four hours were described by Agnes, Teresa and Joe Dobson as a hell on earth. The man In every conceivable manner teased and tor tured his helpless victims, seeming to gain a madman's glee from their wrlthings. Dobson, bound hand and foot and trussed to the foot of a bed, lay on the floor, a helpless witness of the attacks. About 2:45, addressing himself to Teresa, the man told her he thought it was time he was going, but before leaving he was going to hit each on over the head so that they could not j escape too quickly. He then brought the butt of his revolver down on the girl's head and she became uncon scious. One by one each of the pris oners In turn was beaten Into Insen sibility. Not satisfied with one or two blows, he struck some of th women several times. One Makes Her Kacape. The second floor of the O'Hare house, a small five-room farm place, is divided into two bedrooms. Ia one of these on a double bed lay Theresa and Agnes with Joe Dob son, bound and trussed to the foot of the bed, lying on the floor in tOouoluded on Pags 3. Column .)
