TEXT MAY BE PUBLISHED1:! today by the aweeplng Vote of 250 to 150, the surprise of the friends of the measure was almost equal to the disappointment of the big four broth erhoods. It was a nervous day in the house nd house lobbies and wherever mem bers of congress mingled. The pub lic, perhaps feeling it safe to trust their interests to their representa tives In congress, went to sleep last night without sending in any expres aion of their views. The result was this morning that members of the house heard only from individuals and organisations friendly to the railroad unions in all parts of the United States demanding that they vote against the bill. Telegrams Cme In Bundle!. The telegrams . came in bundles. Just as they did on the morning of April 6. 1917. At that time the demand was that representatives vote against a declaration of war with Germany, and it will be recalled that almost 100 members of the house responded, many of them doubtless believing that such expressions voiced the actual overwhelming sentiment of their con tltuenta. It may have been that experience which caused scores of members to stand up today to do what they thought was 'best for the country re gardless of w hat would please the or ganised railroad workers. The truth i is. however, that several representa tives, to use a phrase heard around the capltol several times today, "sweat blood." The officials of the railroad broth erhoods, as on other such occasions, occupied positions in the gallery where they could look every speaker in the face, applauding those who op posed the bill and hazing, by their alienee, those who upheld it. Sims Apparently Inspired. Representative Tlietus W. Sims of Tennessee, ranking democratic mem ber of the Jiouse interstate and for eign commerce committee and sponsor or the I'lumb-plan bill, appeared to get niuch Inspiration from the ap plause from brotherhood officers which greeted everything he said and whatever he said. In fact, he was so much pleased that he raised his voice to the point where It wheezed out and Just what he was saying obviously spelled noth ing to anyone but the officers of the rail unions, who cheered just as wildly as ever. But the futility of the Sims fight was shown when on roll call the two strong men of the demo cratic side of the committee which framed the bill supported it. These two members are Itayburn of Texas and Dewalt of Pennsylvania. Olh,r leading democrats declined to follow the Pirns leadership, ir.cludins f'rlsp of Oeoriria. son of a former speaker of the house, and several of the more independent type. The real blow to the brotherhood lealer3 camp, however, early in the rnllrall when the iinme of Uepres. n Intive John G. iVcper -f Ohio was leached. Representative Cooper, who . Is member of the brotherhood of !ocomoti,c en-rinecrs. voted for the till without the least hesitation. Draatie Clausen Ouponeil. Itepresentativ Cooper opposed all of the original drastic labor amend ments offered to the Esvh bill, but tli'cllnrd to follow the leadership of ills union In th nttemrt to defeat the bill as a mean to Iho success of the numb plan. The bill is surj of passnge by the senate ar.4 then the action of the president W awiited. The railroad tl-ol hcrhoods. thj Mm men who en- neted the noldu of i??ptoi:br. i:t2. which culminated in the Adun.son law, began today to train their pres sure on the White House, n s as ertod in soni-- iiuirters that the pres ident will veto the hifl, but there are reasons to believe not. The hill which whs passed by the house today received suell unexpect ed support from members of .Mr. Wil son's party that It is thought he will think twice before disapproving. Veto Considered tlOHbt'nl. It Is thought doubtful, too. that lie will care ts take the responsibi!lt for the disaster which might follow such action, Ol course, there are some, including the brotherhoods, who think the president can revoke the order returning t..e roads to their private owners oh .March 1, In event that he should veto the bill. The best lawyers in congress, however, say that the order is beyond recall. All day long the majority leaders asserted that the bill would carry, but not one leader would predict a margin of mors than 30 votes. It was apparent when the vote was taken thai many representatives had krpt their Intenticns to themselves in order that the might be free to vote without having to run the gaunt let of a lot of angry brotherhood officials. It was said tonight that the house vote indicated a possibility of being able to override a presidential veto in case it is necessary. HOLDUPS CONFESS Lads, IT and 14, Admit Robberies at Belllngliain, Wash. BELLI.VGHAM. Wash., Feb. SI. Two boys, 17 and 14 years old, were Picked up by the police tonight and have confessed to being the "bandits" who held up three different persons yesterday afternoon at the southern edge of this city. Policemen and oth ers declared that the boys are the same ones who held up a man last Monday night and later engaged In a pistol duel With the officers when more than 50 shots were exchanged. I iwitraav i noid-up. while the older lad was frisking their victim, the little fellow accidentally dis charged his revolver, the bullet pierc ing his pal's leg below the knee. The boy had been attending to the wound himself at home. Tiiey do not admit the Monday night affair, but admit several other hold-ups here which have puzzled the police for the last six months.

The situation in Italy Is again re ported here as serious with both labor and socialist leaders anxious ttiat the Adriatic question be settled, so that normal conditions may be resumed D Annunzio's presence in Fiume Is being represented as the principal obstruction to an agreement between the allied and associated powers whlcb would be acceptable to the Jugo-Slavs. It was said today that if D'Annunzio left Flume a settle ment could be reached in a day. Demobilisation Slowed Down, Demobilization in Italy is reported proceeding with extreme care and slowly because of the feat1 among the people that the Adriatic, situation may lead to another war, and also because of the "Scarcity of work for the demobilized men. Financiers, it is said here, have given Italy to understand that they will not invest while the Adriatic question remains unsettled. Reports from Rome today that Rear-Admiral Andrews, commande of the American naval forces In the Adriatic, had been recalled because of fresh disorders at Spalato. the American naval base, were denied by Secretary Daniels who said no report of any fresh disorders had reached the department.
