(Associated Press) London, March 19.—Captain Borum and the eight men who formed the complement of his boat are among those missing from the sunken Amer- ican steamer City of Memphis. Four of the eight sailors are Americans. The boat was picked up at 10 o'clock Sunday morning and it is hoped that its occupants were rescued either by a patrol boat or by a vessel carrying no wireless, and landed at some out- of-the-way port. The survivors say that the Cap- tain’s boat became separated from the others about one o'clock on Sunday morning. Fifteen men from the American steamer Vigilancia, sunk by a Ger- man submarine, are now listed as missing. | The American embassy learned that the submarine fired two torpedoes a\ the Vigilancia. The first missed by a considerable distance. It was fol lowed immediately by the second, which found the mark. THREE SUNK WITHOUT WARNING; FEW..OF CREWS HAD, TIME TO REACH SAFETY ' (United Press.)

The City of Memphis was first struck. by shell fire and then sunk by a torpedo. EMBARGO LIFTED. (United Press) St. Paul, March 19,—Embargoes on livestock, perishables and explosives were lifted on. all points on the North- ern Pacific railway today. Other lines with headquarters here were expect- ed to follow. immediately. AVERT STRIKE ON EVE OF WAR (Continued from page one) We asked the railroads to agree that if the Adamson law were held to be constitutional, this construction and application will be given to it. “The railroads agreed to this. With much difficulty the chiefs stayed the strike, an act that was vital to the success of our effort at further medi- ation, Seek Adjustment, “We next sought some adjustment, which would be effective should the law be held to be unconstitutional. Jn this regard many propositions were made to both sides until the railroads expressed 2 willingness to place the whole matter in the hands of the com- mittee. This action proceeded from a desire to demonstrate to the country that the railroads wouldn’t allow their own conception of railroad policy to stand in the of the fullest use of NORMA TALMADGE is the star of the latest Triangle Play to be shown at this theat- er.

The committee con- sidered ‘the matter and — considered that, in view of the action of con- Bressin passing the Adamson law and, the necessity for immediate ac tion, it was best to adopt at once the memorandum agreement of the Previous day as applicable under all conditions.” “Then - the proposition of eight- hour law by agreement between the roads and the men became the basis of the settlement and whether the supreme court holds for the validity of the law, or against it, there will be no strike.” (Signed) Franklin K, Lane, W. B. Wilson, | Daniel Willard, | | i Samuel Gompers. Wage Agreement. The agreement signed by the repre-} sentatives of the brotherhoods, the} roads, and by the commission reads as follows: “In all road service, except passen- ger,.where schedules now read 100 miles or less, nine or ten hours or less, overtime at ten or eleven miles per hour, insert ‘eight hours or less for a basic day at 12% miles per hour for a speed basis,’ for the pur-| pose of computing overtime. i One-Eighth, Rate. “Overtime to be paid for at not less than one-eighth of the daily rate per hour. “In all yard service, switching and hostelry service, where schedules now read ‘ten, eleven or twelve hours, or less, shall constitute a day's work,’ insert, ‘eight hours or less shall con- stitute a day’s work at present ten hours’ pay.’ “Overtime to be paid for at not less than one-eighth of the daily rate per hour. “In yards now working on an eight hour basis, the daily rate shall be| $15. the present ten hours’ standard rate with overtime at one-eighth of the present standard daily rate. “In case the law is declared uncon- present ten hours’ pay will constitute a day's work. Mileage Basis Retained. “In passenger service the present mileage basis will be maintained. On roads now having a flat ten-hour day | in passenger service, the rule will be; amended to read ‘eight within ten! hours.’ “For all classes of employes in} short turn-around passenger service, where the rule now reads ‘eight with- in 12 hours’ it will be amended to read ‘eight within ten hours.’ “For such territory as has no num- ber of hours for a day’s work in short turn-around passenger service, the eight within ten hour rule applies. Overtime to be paid for at not less than one-eighth of the daily rate per hour. “The general committees on indi- vidual railroads may elect to maintain their present overtime rules in short turn-around passenger service for the foregoing provisions, but may not make a combination of both to pro- duce greater compensation than is Adjusted to Deeision, “In the event the law is held to be constitutional, if the foregoing settlement ig conformatory with the decision of the court, that application | will be adjusted to the decision. If declared unconstitutional the above stands with all the provisions as writ- ten.” The first intimation that the strike had been averted came unexpectedly early this. morning when a represent- ative of the-railroad passengers’ con- ference committee called up the Asso- ciated Press and announced “the strike is off.” Severa} hours elapsed before the settlement agreement was signed, and a brotherhood chief tele- graphed dlivision officers rescinding the strike order. a a i GEORGE D.

An item of $900 for Dr. Craighead’s stenographer perished with the job. Of a total reduction of $468,116 in the general appropriations, the governor trimmed $383,216 from the board of regents or institutions under its con- trol. The shred of silver lining in the cloud effect may be discovered in the assumption that the governor had given up hopes of being able to oust the present board, as it is thought he would not disappoint his own ap- pointees by:givipg them a board with such vastly curtailed appropriations. | Race-tracks and roof-gardens figure ant scenes:of “The Wolf Woman,” the Triangle “vampire” drama in which Thomas H.
