carried over lnm, yesterday, and aa yes
terday's pricea were high aa compared with
other polnta, and all other marketa were
breaking sharply toaay, a ami aecne b
was Inevitable.
A good share of the aales were made at
1.4001.50, with a sprinkling of the fair to

In. The three daya' recelpta amount to
24.766 head, being 11.000 larger than last

ago, and a gain of 1,000 head over the cor
responding period of last year. So far thla
week receipts have been larger than for
any almllar period In some time.
Spring lambs, as usual, msde up the big
end of the offerings this morning, and
with a continued easier trend to prices at all
polnta, ' packers started out after another
36c reduction In prices.
' The general market waa In many respects
a repetition of the two previous daya. Sell
ers made a determined attempt to hold
valuea up, and In aome Instances succeeded
In bettering first offers a little, but when
the hulk of the ranae atnff aold It waa on
a mostly 16026c lower baals. Some of the
fair atuff waa not quoted by aalesmen aa
more than 10016c lower, but there were
not enough aales of this sort to be hardly
worthy of mention.
; Aged aheep. were In comparatively light
supply, and prices did not see much If any
change. The beat ewes here sold at 16.760
6.90, while a band of range yearlings

Federal Imquiiry or
Railroad Strike?
Faced by demands from the conductors, engineers, firemen and brakemen that
would impose on the country an additional burden in transportation costs of $100,000,000
a year, the railroads propose that this wage problem be settled by reference to an
impartial Federal tribunal.
With these employes, whose efficient service is acknowledged, the railroads have no
differences that could not be considered fairly and decided justly by such a public body.
.Railroads Urge Public Inquiry and Arbitration
The formal proposal of the railroads to the employes for the settlement of the
controversy is aa follows: s
"Our conference, hare demonstrated that we cannot harmonize our differences of opinion,
and that erentuall the matters in controversy must be passed upon by other and disinter
ested agencies. Therefore, we propose that your proposals and the proposition of the rail
ways be disposed of by one or the other of the following methods: ,
.. 1. Preferably by submission to the Interstate Commerce Commission, the only tribunal
which, by reason of its accumulated information bearing on railway conditions and its con
trol of tne revenue of the railways, is in a position to consider and protect the rights and t
equities of all the interests affected, and to provide additional revenue necessary to meet the
. added cost of operation in case your proposals are found by the Commission to be just and
1 reasonable; or, in the event the Interstate Commerce Commission cannot, under existing
laws, act in the premises, that we jointly request Congress to take such action as may be
necessary to enable the Commission to consider and promptly dispose of the questions
involved; or - -
2. By arbitration m accordance with the provisions of the Federal law" (The Newlands Act).
Leaders Refuse Offer and Take Strike Vote
Leaders of the train service brotherhoods, at the joint conference held in New York?
June 1-15, refused the offer of the railroads to submit the issue to arbitration or Federal
review, and the employes are now voting on the question whether authority shall be
given these leaders to declare a nation-wide strike. v ,
' The Interstate Commerce Commission is proposed by the railroads as the public
body to which this issue oufht to be referred for these reasons : ,
No other body with such an intimate
knowledge of railroad conditions has such
an unquestioned position in the public con
fidence. The rates' the railroads may charge the
public for transportation are now largely
faxed by this Government board.
Out of every dollar received by the rail
roads from the public nearly one-half is paid
directly to the employes as wages; and the
money to pay increased wages can come from
no other source than the rates paid by the
public. ,-'
The Interstate Commerce Commission,
with its control over rates, is in a position
to make a complete investigation ana render
such decision asNrould protect the interests
of the railroad employes, the owners of the
railroads, and the public.
A Question For the Public to Decide
The railroads feel that they have no right to grant a wage preferment of $100,000,000
a year to these employes, now highly paid ana constituting only one-fifth of all e
employes, without a clear mandate irom a public tribunal that shall determine the
merits of the case after a review of all the facts.
The single issue before the country is whether this controversy ts to b,e settled by an impartial
Government inquiry or by. industrial warfare. v'''
