After an hour's conference with President Wilson the thirty-three rail- road presidents left the White House without giving any indication that they hod abandoned thelr stand for arbitra- tion, but with assurances that the ne- gotiations were not ended. The railroad executives gave no fi- nal answer to the president's propos- als but will deliberate on them today and see President Wilson again prob- ably Monday. Responsibility For Strike. In his address to the officinls, Pres- ident Wilson said: “If a strike the public will sponsibility rests. me.” Tho that they would soon. All saia that the question was not closed and that the negotiations would be continucd Prosident Holden of the Burlington, spokesman for the officials, id no time had been set for them to see President Wilson again but that it was necessary to confer with the commit- tee of managers which has the author- ity to accept or reject plans. Several of the executives Indicated disappointment over President Wil- son’s statement but showed particular interest in his mention of the possibil- ity of the interstate commerce mission considering an freight rates. In his talk to the executives today President Wilson told them they were facing a condition, not a principle. He asked why they should demand arbi- tration when there was no law for compulsory arbitration and he knew it to be impossible to get a compulsory arbitration law through congress. The employes, he recalled, had consistently refused arbitration and be believed it was impossible to gain it in the present controver The president informed the officials that they n impracti- cal thing in the present crisis when they mentioned arbitration, for em- ploves would not accept arbitration nd he had no way of forcing them to ccept 1t.

His only object, he said, was to avoid a strike, with its consequent disaster to the na- tion. As President Wilson spoke to the officials he paced up and down before them in the hlue room veral times he emphasized points with a clenched fist. e ma often paused and faced them as he ced that they accept his plan “T have been asked to sit as a judge,” said the president in substance. *T cannot do that. T simply can suggest a plan—a way in which I believe this question can be settled fairly to all sldes.” President Wilson urged again that the railroads accept the plan, adopt the eight hour day at least tempor- arily and then allow the proposed com- mission to fully investigate the facts He pointed out that the railroads brought forward one set of statements and the employes another and it wa. impossible for him to tell which w. correct.

That was agreed to by the railroad executives. After the conference President Wil- <on telegraphed to a number of presi- dents of western roads inviting them to come to Washington. President Wilson sent the follow- ing telegram to fourteen presidents of railroads: “Discussion of the involved in the threatened strike is still continuing. 1t vy important that I should per- sonally confer with you or some one authorized to represent you at the earliest possible moment. 1fope you can arrange matters so as to be able Washington at once.” officials upon seeing the resident’s statement expressed the opinion that they would have to keep the committee of 640 here dur- ing the early part of next week, and be 1 making arrangements accord- Ingly Opinion ersy officials wera equally Tolden told the pre sed the seriousness of truth in western matters railway is high to come to Erotherhood prevailed among leaders of the employes that the railroad direct- be summoned soon by the Some of the employes’ talk of congressional negotiations fail and a strike results.

The company officials claimed that of the 150 men who were supposed to be strikers, a had applied for reinstatement today. Each application was passed upon soparately DELAY ON ELM § or TREET JOB. Business Men Claim They Are Losing Money and Blame Union Paving Co. That the Union Paving company is to blamo for the delay on the BIm street paving job and that the board of public works should force immediate action or take the contract away from them Is urged by Elm street business men, prominent among the complain- ants being Major Frank I. Johnston, president of the .City Coal & Wood company. Major Johnston is authority for the statement that the paving company has a weak argument in complaining that 1t cannot do the work on account of the delay in the arrival of cement. Mr. Johnston says that there is plenty of cement in the city providing the Unlon Paving company is willing to pay the price. That the company is depending upon another contractor who has thus far failed to make good is no excuse in the eyes of Major Johnston and he is tired of listening to such complaints while Elm street business men are suffering from the Lold-up on the job. The company should take immediate action or forfeit the contract, he contends. Major John- ston, in this stand is not actuated by personal consideraion and cites the case of a local milk dealer who was be forced to passing on the concrete which has been hardening in the sun for the past four or five d: The Union Paving Co. has been engaged for the past street job for weeks and business men are losing money every day owing to apparently ncedless de- lay, avers Major Johnston.

Quigley is consid- cring the advisability of seeking aid from the next legislature of an appro- priation from §25,000 to ,000 for 4 sewage experiment station to be erected preferably at the Berlin sewer heds. In connection with this matter Mayor Quigley said New Britain had gpent a sum in excess of $1,000,000 on its sewerage svstem and is confronted with an expenditure aof $300,000 to £600,000 for the completion of the system. The filtration plant at Berlin is any- thing but a complete success and ac- cording to the mayor other communi- ties in the state are confronted with 1tke problems. He says the city can- 1ot go ahead with experimental work and there is no reason why the city should do the pioneer work and allow other citles to benefit by it. He there- fore proposes that the state make an appropriation which all may benefit Iy and this experimental plant should properly he lacated at the Berlin sewer beds in Beckley Quarter. “PRYS” TO TOUR STATE.

The | prize is the city delegation of ten to | the state convention at New Haven, September 6 and 6. The lineup will be between the forces commanded by Morgan G. Bulkeley, former governor and former United States senator, and Charles A. Goodwin, former republi- can town chairman, and former nom- inee of his party for governor. There will be a fight all down the | line in every ward, according to the | announcement sent out in republican | circles today. An attempt to get to- gether made at a conference of | Bulkeley and Goodwin representatives, Friday afternoon, failed. According to the Bulkeley slde the break came over the refusal of the Goodwin men to allow Mayor Frank A. Hagerty a plage on the delegation. The mayor's name is second on the Bulkeley slate, their ticket being headed by the for- mer governor and senator himself. The mayor is on his vacation at Block Tsland and so far as can be ascertained is taking no hand in the contest. It is not expected that he will be back to vote at the primaries next Thurs day. The Bulkeley men say that the chief objection to the mayor's name | came from John F. Cosgrove of the fourth ward, a favorite Goodwin licutenant, and a candidate for as- ses last spring, up to the time Mayor Hagerty won the nomination in the convention over Colonel Rich- ard J. Goodman and Francis W, Cole. Mr. Cosgrove then announced Aug. or would not run on a ticket with Mr. Hagerty. Albert M. Simons expected to get the nomination anyway. The Goodwin men assert that the Bulkeley conferee refused to allow Editor Charles Hopkins Clark a place the delegation. This was denied emphatically this morning by Police Board President Morgan Bulkeley Brainard. The Bulkeley men add that Mr. Clark was a dele- zat. to the Chicago convention, an) way. Nine names were agreed amicably by the conference,” said Brainard. “The break came on objection of the Goodwin men to name of the mavor.” The mayor lives in the ninth ward. The Goodwin contention is that the ward itself should pick the represen- tative on the state slate and not make any exception for the mavor. This view was supported by all the Good- win lieutenants, it was said today but particularly by Jacob Leipziger chair- man of the s>cond. The conference Charles A. Goodwin Brainard and was held in Mr. Good- win's office Chairman James Noel H. Campbell, town chairman, arranged it, in the hope that the threatened fight might be averted by a change of views and a compromise. All sides con- ceded today that a split has come and there was nothing to do now but have another straight from the shoulder fight in all the wards as they did in the spring. The Bulkeloy that fight in the light of the nomi- nation of their candidate for mayor. The Goodwin men say the situation is more favorable to them now. The Bulkeley men declared they swere never in better shape for a contest than now when asked to the out- look this morning. There is no talk of preference for any of the rival candidates for the ro- publican nomination for the governo ship. This issue in the state conven- tion is apt to be lost sight of in the present ne up. Both sides assert their neutrality, preferring a Hartford man for the nomination, One of the startling things connected with the contest, however as an intimation that one of the contending factions might come out for Speaker Frank E. Healy for governor. The primaries will be Thursday from 5 to committees and workers will be busy every minute from now on, lining up their supporters and preparing the ri- val delegate slates. There will be great political maneuvering to get the popular men in the different w the men with personal followers, on the rival tickets. Meetings have been called for Monday night of the first, second, third, fourth, seventh and tenth ward commlittees to pick lists of delegates. The other wards will be beard from later. The tickets must be {in the hands of Chairman Campbell by 5 o'clock Wednesday afternoon There will be four lists of gates selected and thus far the only contest in view are over the rival state slates, for the state delegation and for the senatorial nomince the | secona ‘district, where former Ald | man Ferdinand D’Esopo is running | against Senator Thomas J.
