New London, Conn., Aug. 14. From

Boston, Mass., Aug. 14. The mystcs

in Boston, so far as any one has been

Member of Colony Is
Visiting In Salem
J. I. Warner, a former resident of
Salem, but who has been for the past
year a member of the Del Rio Llano
colony in southern California, is in the
city, attending to business matters. He
reports the Del Kio colony flourish
ing and after his one year's exper
ience, is entirely satisfied with the in
vestment. Eighteen industries are now
established in tho colony including
canneries and the manufacture of al
most everything the stockholders need.
A newspaper has lately been estab
lished, and according to Mr. Warner,
50,000 fruit trees . were planted this
spring.
The colony is now orgnuizcd with a
45,000,000 stock. To become a mem
ber, one must buy $2,000 worth of
stock, paying down $1,000 cash. The
uniform wages of all is ifi a day, one
dollar of which is applied to paying on
stock, nnd $3 credited nt the colony
store. Although there has been no
cash paid to members, according to
Mr. Warner, the management of the
colony will soon begin allowing each
member a certain amount in cash for
his labor. After attending to his busi
ness in the city, he will return to the
colonv, which now has a membership
of between 800 and t)00.

for 3 p. m. The president spent part

HUuoL'rnphic report of the morning ses
sion in order to formulate proposals to
make to the managers.
Reach Basis for Agreement.
An apparently well authenticated re
port that preceded the conclusion of the
morning couference.was to the effect
that the employes would agree to arbi
tration of the case, provided the ruil
roa.ts egiced to withdraw their coun
ter proposals, and that the railrqad
managers had so agreed. Following the
coiifctencn none of the employes' rep
resentatives would confirm this report.
These counter proposals were that
any discussion should include a wage
readjustment of rules and regulations 011
which present wages are based. The
railroad managers contend it is essential
that the whole matter be taken up, since
it obviously would be unfnnr to hnve
the old rules and regulations govern the
proposed new wage basis.
Several of the repersentntives, as
they left the executive mansion waved
their hats to the newspapermen 50 of
them awaiting outside. There was 110
indication the men felt discouraged as
the result of their conference.
Garretson's face was flushed and he
mopped it with his handkerchief, but
he whs smiling. Immediately after the
men left, Judge Chambers returned to
the White House for another confer
ence. Will Consult Board Tirst.
Washington, Aug. 14. Representa
tives of the four brotherhoods and a
score of railroad managers arrived in
Washington early today prepared to
confer with President Wilsou in nil ef
fort to avert a general strike on virtu
ally all the great railroads of the country-
Secretary Tumulty, who yesterday
carried a message from the president to
the conferees in New York asking a
voice in the threatened crisis, arrived
at the same time. After a conference
with the president, he said all engage
ments at the White House had been
cancelled for the day and the president
would uive his undivided attention to
the claims of the conflicting interests.
Before meeting the men the president
planned to hear from Judge Chambers
of the federal board of mediation and
conciliation, a full report of the board
in New York, which resulted in the rail
road employes refusing mediation or ar
bitration, or, as Judge Kunpp of the
board said, "any other plan or method
for a peaceful settlement of the con
troversy." In spite of the apparent absolute
deadlock in the negotiations there wns
a strong belief among administration J
officials that the president would be j
able to work out a solution of the prob-1
lcm. I
Chambers is Hopeful.
Judge Chambers said: I
"The president is vested with great
er powers than we. lie has sources of
direct appeal which only he can use with
full effect. I am hopeful and confi
dent thnt when he talks with the men
interested in this dispute he will bring
abont a satisfactory settlement. I be
lieve he will."
As to the relative merits of the con
tentions of the parties. Judge Chambers
would not commit himself. The other
members of the federal board did not
come to Washington, but remained in
. . , .
, Representatives of the brotherhoods
ueclined to discuss the possibility of the
president appeal in any way They

I A man close to Klisha Lee, chairman!'
the president's intervention.
i "We sre asked to call at the White.
House and that, youknow is equivalent
to an order," he said. "We have no
reason now to change our attitude. The
men have refused to do anything and
the failure to get together is a result
of this refusal. ' '
"Are you all ready for a strike!"
he was asked.
"We are ready," he answered, "but
no two railroad managers agree as 1
what course to pursue, some of "ns fa
voring putting white lead on the en
gines and storing them away. It is v
question whether we are sufficiently
ready to prevent a paralysis of busi
ness." Asked directly if,, the situation ap
peared pessimistic the speaker replied:
"Well, the men are talking strike.
proUy strong todny."
The speaker said the managers are
willing to submit to outside adjudica
tion, though he did not appear hopeful
that the president would offer anything
to avert trouble.
