Amount Is Fifteen Million Embargo On Shipment to Aus
Dollars To Be Used While 1 tria and Germany Means
Not Employed i Heavy Losses
By Card D. Croat.
(United Press staff correspondent.)
Washington, Aug. 28. Fifteen mil
lion dollars bulge in the war cheat of
the railroad brotherhoods.
Thii amount about equally divided
among the four unions is ready today
for distribution among the men should
they need strike relief. It is to be
doled out in portions of $10 a month
among the 40(1,000 men who would be
involved in a national railroad tie-up.
How long it would lust is problematical
for relief might star with the opening
of the strike or might be delayed until
later.
. As the brotherhood men view it, their
mighty war cheat probably would not
be touched in the forthcoming strike
for they believe it would be so brief
that the men would not feel the pinch
oi unemployment.
.This great war fund has been gather
ed through weekly contributions, cov
ering a long space of time. ' The assess
ment varies according to the members'
earning, but tho total sum per year is
written in fixed thousands. -
One little coda word wired from
Washington to every railruud center in
the country is sufficient to precipitate
the strike. The more than 000 broth
erhood delegates, who left for their
posts yesterday, carried instructions for
running a strike.
Trains on the line will be run to the
Dearest junction; fires will be banked
nd engines oiled. The engines and the

Washington, Aug. 28. The state de
partment has knowledge of concessions
granted by Great Britain giving the
British-American Tobacco company vir
tual monopoly o'f export trade with
France and Italy, Foreign Trade Ad
viser Letcher declared today.
Ho made the statement to tobacco
growers' representatives who had called
ut the capitol to urge a formal protest
against England's embargo on ship
ments to Austria and Germany, effec
tive Thursday. Confronted with a loss
of $10,000,000 to 15,000,000, tobacco
growers in five states ire panic strick
en, their representatives said.
The English concessions, in conjunc
tion with the embargo on tobacco, the
growers declared, will menu the British-American
company can reduce the
prices paid American growers who will
have no other outlet for the big export
crops.
Charges of bad faith by F.nglaml aud
demnnd 'for stern retaliatory measures
were made by Senator Swnnson, Vir
ginia. Joel Fort, of Clnrksville, Tcnu.,
hinted that Englnnd's unexpected em-
cars will be delivered to the companies
I in perfect condition and every union
I man will quit the property, with orders
! to voiil violence or trespass.
Only 24 of tho biggest brotherhood
men remain hero today. According to
i their version they must stand pat on
the eight hour day with 10 hours pay.
Tho feeling in the men's quarters is
I that the strike is only n few dnvs off.
The Salem Bowling Alleys will be opened on or
about Sept 1, under management of M. L. Patlon.
Will cater to highclass trade. One afternoon will
be reserved each week for ladies and escorts.

bnrgo may "show collusion on the part
of that government with the Imperial
Tobacco company or with the American
Tobacco company."
Fort explained that on information
received at tho state department that
Great Britain would not include tobac
co in embargoed products, farmers had
devoted increased acreage to tobacco.
Placing of tobacco on tho embargo list,
he said, had thrown the growers into a
panic. Unless rcdresB is forthcoming,
Fort said, tobacco prices would drop to
ruinous levels.
Senator Swnnson urged a drastic pro
test by the state department.
"England doesn't care anything
about fair play," said Senator Martin.
"I think a threat o'f retaliation would
go a long way toward alleviating conditions."

this wns left with him for his con
sideration. "This committee expects to see the
president again in the near future but
before leaving the committee pointed
out to him that if, as reported, the
date for declaring the strike had been
fixed for September 4, it would force
an early conclusion of the negotiations
and compel tho president to return to
their properties to prepare for the
issue.'' ,
Order for Strike.
Tho body of the order the executives
showed follows;
"This is to advise that the vote of
the employes in train and engine serv
ice on the eight hour and time and one
half for overtime proposition was
overwhelmingly in favor of a strike.
"Notwithstanding this, you represen
tatives have been unable to effect a
satisfactory settlement and a strike un
der the laws of the respective organ
izations becomes effective on (here the
date of September 4 is stamped with a
rubber stamp) at (here 7 a. in. is writ
ten In ink.)
"Impart j this informivtion so that
those interested will understand that
they nro to promptly obey.
"Fraternally yours,
"General Chairman."
There is no other signature.
A statement of the "duties o mem
bers and officers in conduct of
strike" accompanies the order. It re
quires that no trainmen shall perform
nnv service after the strike hour unless
he already has begun a trip and left '
the terminal. No difference )s made
between a mail train and a freight
train.
Of this feature the stntinont says
"you have identically tho same right
to refuse to perform service on a mail
train as you have to refuse to pertorm
service on a freight train."
The statement orders all brotherhood
members to stay away from railway
property and warns members to avoid
violence.. ,
Tho statement is on paper with the
union card of a New York typograph
ical union.
Roads Want to Be "Coerced "
Washington. Aug. 28 President Wil
son arrived at tho senate office build
ing at 8:53 p. m. and went into session
with the senate steering committee in
the latter 's committee room.
Senator Reed was in the committee
room alone when the president arriv
ed. The other members of the commit
tee, Kerns, .Taes, O 'Gorman, Thomas,
Cliuherlttin, Owens, Williams and Mar
tin arrived very soon thereafter.
There can be no denying that the
administration feels the railroads thus
far have indicated no desire to con
sider any fair proposition other than
arbitration of the whole dispute, which
the president has not the power to en
force. Ou democratic senator today said
the railroads knew that if a strike were
called they would be beuteu "and ad
mit that the eight hour day would be
forced upon them." He said their in
tentiou then was to say they had been
"coerced into accepting, it,'"
MAY BEJLAST OF ALL
Golden Jubilee May Be Last
Ever Held of Veterans of
the Civil War
Kansas City, Mo., 'Awr. 28. Mobil
ization of the Grand Army of the Re
public for the golden jubilee encamp
ment continued today, the forces of
faded blue pouring through Union
station in increasing numbers as the
veterans from Kansas and Missouri
and nearby states began to arrive.
The first real convention meeting will
not be held until tomorrow night and
many planned not to get here before
then. ' '
With the aid of the Boy Scouts, the
visiting delegates were handled with
out a hitch. The scouts showed par
ties to hotels aud rooms, lugged heay
Krips, ran all sorts of errands, winning
the hearts of the old soldiers and their
companies.
Threats of a railway strike have kept
ninny of "Lincoln's boys" from at
tending the encampment, Adjutant
General John Adams of Cincinnati
said, adding that failure of the rail
r6ads to grant rate and the hot sum
mer in nearly every section of the
country had also cut attendance.
Here, however, the choicest weather
prevailed, the maximum temperature
yesterday being 08 degrees.
Indications point that this will be
the last national encampment. Sam
D. Brown, commander of the depart
ment of Kentucky, proposes hereafter
that encampments be not held en mas
se, but by delegates chosen from each
state, proportioned ono delegate to
each BOO members, their expenses to be
paid by the encampment.
Commander Brown said it wa9 only
a year or two until the majority will
cease attending, owing to increasing
infirmities, and that his plan "will put
us on a business basis ns well as patrio
tic." He feels sure five hundred com
rades could do the convention work ns
well as it is done now, and that the
others would be content to stay at
home.
Death claimed its first visiting vet
eran today when N. W. Maey of To
ledo, Ohio, toppled and tell as ho i
started down the steps of the home of I
Z. T. Robertson where he had been as- j
signed a room. He wns dead when i
help reached him. Death was believed
duo to heart disease. An effort is be- j
iug made to communicate w ith rein-'
fives in Toledo. j
Ten special trains carrying members ;
of the O. A. R. have arrived within.
36 hours.
Political talk has begun. William .1.
Patterson of Pittsburg aud Patrick H.
Coley of Topeka have already avowed .
their intention of running for the of-1
fice of commander in chief.
Others are appearing on the scene.
The election will be held Friday.
