RAILROAD ACT
Aells Advocates of Plumb
Plan Some Day They Will
Hail New Law as
Forward Act. '
Gallon, O.. Aug. 28. Facing an
audience of railway employes, some
of whom he recognized at hostile to
his position, enator Harding Friday
inilitantly championed the Esch
Cummins railway act passed by the
last congress. . . . . :J
Deliberately but with driving ges
y4ure Ji'e proclaimed his stand for '"a
just government for all of the peo
ple, not a government yielding to
class," and declared his faith in a
governmental policy that would in
sure to railway mety the best treat
ment and compensation, but Woflld
also give to the people V'a continuity
of service." '
'Som of ou do not approve,' he
laid, plunging a pointing forefinger
at those nearest hini.- "Same of you
wished the Pfumb plan. Let me look
you in the face and let me tell you
I think the Esch-Cummins act is the.
expression of the conscience of a
congress which sought to give high
est service to the country. Some day,
maybe not this year, you railway
eri- will hail thaf law qe tU
forward step in all the his-
rlway legislation."
his second address awav

at a park where employes of the Erie
.tystem were in the midst-of an ath
letic field day. When the nominee
arrived, he was;escortd to a luncheon,

ceive fa-meal of beef and boiled
potatoes on a tin plate.

Clilraio Tribus-Omohe Bm Laawd Wire,
Pittsburgh, Aug. 28. Pictures
of her husband iir the nude with
the deaconess of his church,
which were taken in his study,
were introduced as evidence in the
sensational divorce proceeding
filed hy Mrs. Esther Hart, wife of
Rev. Frederick V7 Hart, a Metho
dist Episcopal minister.
Hart formerly had a pastorate
at Bellaire, O., iA the denoue
ment of hif relations with the
church workers resulted in his -being
removed.
The first intimation of the hus-'
band's misconduct was obtained
when the wife found the pictures'
of her husband with the deacon
ess. These pictures, the wife
said, were taken by her husband
himself, some of them being taken
by placing a, thread on the shut
ter release on the camera.
The wife also testified that she
found' some letters which had
passed between the couple and
these, together with the photo
graphs, were offered as exhibits

who has terrorized the countryside
between Greensburg and Home
stead for-two .weeks was captured
toda .'in', a neayil- wooded thicket
near the Glass Ran road,' "Baldwin
township, and lodged in the Hays
police station. His body, nearly
nude, a fearsome, grimy sight, and
the matted hair or, his face and head
six inches long,-"the ape-man sg
tlosely resembled, his Sirriian ances
tors that the officers who came unon

Apparently unable Or unwilling to

and looks typifies, the. primordial
male, sits moaning in his cell in the
Hays police station, occasionally
giving -utterance' to deep gutteral
sounds resembling the croaking of
a 'huge frog.
County officials and officers of

who have seen the man declare that
it would be hafd at a distance, es

GENERAL STRIKE1

Of Wage" Commission '
Men to Receive But 17
' Percent lficreasej
Chicago TYMun-Omh Bre lret Wire.
; Wilkesbarre, '.Pa., Au?' 27. By
the award of the anthracite wage
commission, made ' public ' today
through a local coal company, the
150,000 anthracite' miners will not
benefit any more than-if they had
accepted the maximum offer of the
coal companies in May. This was
the opinion expressed by leading
men in mining circles tonight. Lead
ers of the powerful insurgent faction
who have, been conducting a strike
of ,10.000 miners -Kere for the past
two months, are . much dissatisfied
and may demand a general strike of
anthracite .workers at 'a meeting , to
be' held Saturday night
'According to the majority report,
signed by VvO. - Thompson, chairv
man of the commission, and W.. t.
Connell, representing the operators.
but not yet, approved by fresrden.t
Wilson, the miners are to receive
approximately 17 per cent increase,
a two-year contract and the "con
tractor system," which is . causing
the strike of 10,000 miners, re-
I mains. These are the features the
awaru. ,
It is believed here that President
Wilson, profiting by hi experience
with soft coal miners who hari to
be given an extra advance after the
soft coal commission's rates went
into effect, will give serious consid
eration1 to the minority report." If he
does not. a biar strike may result
Under the, award the earnings will
be as toliows:
Miners. $6.28 per day; miners' la
borers, 45.44; company j laborers,
$4.91. and breaker boys, W.WA
The rate for miners is fixed at 28
cents above the minimum rates de-
i i ' i .i i i Ar u.
ers. whOi at the hearings in Scran
ton, claimed that a miner could, nof
live on less than $6 a day.
