Strike on Harriman
System Taken. Up
By Federal Probers
CHICAGO, April N7.-In vest lga'tlon ef
wagea and working conditions of Pull
man conductors and porters waa - sus
pended by1 the federal Industrial com
mission today until next Saturday upon
receipt of information that John S. Run
noils, president of' the Pullman company,
and Robert T. Lincoln,' chairman of the
uoai'd.-4f. .directors, are too 111 to appear
before the eommlwlon.
Complaint ef ahopmon of the Illinois
Central and .other so-called Harriman
roads were taken up.- This phase of the
inquiry was expected td Isst-three daya.
'Charles If. Markhsm, president of the
Illinois Central, was 'the firat witness.
He read a statement asserting that the
shopmen's strike of 1911 waa "ill advised
and Inopportune," and did not represent
the attitude of the men, 'but, largely the
"selfish ambitions" of would-be union
leaders. ;
- Had the, ultimate purpose of the strike
been achieved, Mr., Mark ham said the
railroads would have been helpless. A
strike in a sawmill, he illustrated, might
tie up a whole railroad system. He read
a record ot alleged violent aete which
marked 'the strike. The reading of the
statement consumed two hours.
Chairman Walsh questioned Mr. Mark
ham as to the requests of federation of
employes of the Illinois Central and of
requests of fed ration officials for con
ference.' .
"I was consistent in declining those
petitions," said tha witness.
Mr. Mnrkham aald that guards placed
over company property and men gener
ally were not armed, but where they
were Isolated and especially open to at
tack they were given weapons of de
fense. .
"Our men were Instructed to avoid
bloodshed as far aa possible and suc
ceeded," said the witness.
"What percentage of the craft em
ployes left when the strike was called r'
asked Mr. Walsh.
"Nearly 100 per cent. Tou must re
member the men thought It was a aort
of Jotfe, they didn't know what they
were about "

gram.) Jamaa Peacock of Toronto, Can
ada, waa tha speaker at the morning
services of the general conference of the
Lattr Day Saints hre. Apostle Uomar
T. Griffiths presided over the business
session. A resolution seeking to prohibit
the use by other denominations of bap
tismal fonts owned by the Saints waa
denied.
The reorganisation haa always stood for
an open Bible and a free pulpit to all.
and by today'a action they strengthened
the liberality of thet position.

petlng with the prohibition question.
In the interest of the British public,,
The cabinet meeta today. It is ei-!
peeled that .announcement will ba
made of measures to provide drastio
restrictions on tha consumption of
liquors, but total prohibition, la noC
expected- - ' I. ,
Attention ia concentrated on thr
Carpathian passes, -where the Rus
sians are bringing 1 up heavy ' retrc'
orcementa to push their attack, thij'
success of which la expected only
through weight of numbers. On thai
other hand the Austrian and Germ e a
comruandera also are. making etrenu-,
oug efforts to strengthen their forcea.
A est r la as Retreat and Advance. ;
l'etrograd reports tnsti' the section,,
hear the l'sok pass, where Vienna ad- '
mlta a retirement, extends tor a distance,
ot seventeen miles. To offset thla Vienna
claims a counter . of fcnslvs movement .
near Lupkow pass, where the Austrian
report the taking of several Russian,
positions,- with the , capture of 7,000
prisoners. v ,
A conservative Interpretation ' of both '
the Austrian and Russian reports lead
to the belief that the Russian offensive) .
at LupkoW has been checked, while they i
have 1 forced their .wsy through thex
Rostok pass, capturing two villages oaj
the southern side of the range.
French Coatlaao Of reaalre. -
In the west arena tha French continue
their ; offensive movement between then
Meuse and the Lorraine frontier. Their
reported gains in the AiUy torest Indi
cate th possibility of a new danger for
the Germans holding St Mlhlel. while thoi
advance to the east of Verdun Is regarded
in London aa threatening 8t. Mlhlel from
the north. Berlin reports heavy fighting
in thla region without results for thai
French.

alienee prevails concerning details ef thai
