.-NEW TORK. March 15. The loco
motive firemen complained today that
their case against the Eastern railroads
before the arbitration board was handi
capped by the fact that the railroads
had filed erroneous reports with the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
This statement, made by President
Carter, of the Firemen's Brotherhood,
started a heated controversy and Elisha
Lee. chairman of the committee of rail
road managers. Insisted that If the Gov
ernment statisticians were willing the
tostlmonv of the firemen's witnesses
based thereon should be disregarded.
Judge Chambers, chairman of the arbi
tration board, however, let the wit
ness proceed.
. Apparent lucre . "MUleadlaa-."
" President Carter's charge was made
when V. J. Lauck. the Government
statistician, who was expected to oc
cupy the stand all next week, took up
the statement of the Baltimore Ohio
Railroad. Mr. Carter declared that the
apparent increase In firemen's wages
of 49 per cent In the past ten years was
misleading.
. "It has been the custom of the rail
roads for years." he said, "to make re
ports which do not account for a,ll their
emploves. They report only the higher
priced men. leaving the part-time men
rfnt. and thus falsify the statistics which
Mr. Lauck had to consult. In other
words. Mr. Lauck had to work In a
mine that had been 'salted.1 "
laerrased Capital Divided.
Mr Carter declared that the case of
the engineers had been Injured by simi
lar false statistics.
Mr. Lauck said It was Impossible to
ascertain what proportion of increased
capitalization of the railroads had been
applied to Investment in actual rail
road property. It could be shown, he
added, that dividends had been paid on
capitalization that did not represent
actual railroad property, and that the
firemen received a fair proportion of
the beneflta of the Increased capitalisa
tion onlv when It was put Into the pur
chase of rolling stock and Improve
ments to the roads.
The hearing will be continued Mon

WASHINGTON. March 15. Julio Be

COLUMBUS, O., Starch 15.- Charged
with having mulcted wealthy men in a
halt doien cities out of thousands of
dollars within the last few months
through intimations of possible expos
ure, Mrs. Emma Bothwell, with several
aliases, was arrested today and will
have a preliminary hearing before a
United States Commissioner.
Mrs. Bothwell. who was arrested at
Delaware earlier in the day, was spe
cifically charged In affidavits filed by
Postofflce Inspector Robinson with
having used the malls to defraud Ed
ward H- Frederlckton, of South Bend,
Ind., and others.
Upon being arraigned before the Fed
eral Commissioner this afternoon. Mrs.
Bothwell's attorney entered a plea of
not guilty for her. The hearing was
postponed until March Tt. because of
the absence of material witnesses. The
woman was remanded to Jail in default
of $1000 bail.
Operations Cover Many Cities.
The postofflce inspectors and city de
tectives who have been working on
the case declare that Mrs. Bothwell's
alleged operations extended to Indian
apolis. Detroit, Cleveland. Wilkesbarre,
Pa., and several other cities.
They assert that they have evidence
in the form of letters showing mat
Mrs. Bothwell wrote her alleged vic
tims, saying she was in delicate healtn
and demanding money with which to
provide an operation.
Under another name, she is alleged
to have written claiming to be a sister
of Mrs. Bothwell and representing that
the latter had died from the effects
of an operation. From J200 to 500
was asked to pay burial expenses.
"Nurse" Makes More Demands.
Later, under still another alias, it is
alleged she sent in bills representing
herself as a "nurse." saying she "knew
all" and threatening trouble unless
money was sent to pay for her services
"in caring for the late Mrs. Bothwell."
The inspectors declared that they
have evidence that the woman was at
one time the wife of a widely-known
confidence man. Upon being asked to
day whether she had been married be
fore she was married to her present
husband, she said:
"Why go back to the cradle? My past
history isn't of importance to the pub
