London, Noy. 15, 10:56 a. m.—A communication from the®Russian war office, as forwarded by Reuters Petro grad correspondent states that meas- ure of reprisal are to be enforced against captured German officers. The communication says that the German government transferred a.large num- | ber of Russian officers to a special concentration camp and subjected them to particularly severe treatment, owing to alleged ill treatment of Ge: man prisoners in Russia. The Rus- sian government drew Germany’s at- tention to what it characterized the injustice of this measure, adding that if by November 14 this severe treatment was not done away with all German prisoners held prisoner in Russia would be subjected to simi- lar regime. No reply having been.received, the Russian war minister has ordered that all German pr ners of war who have been treated as officers be placed in camps alloted to the ordinary war prisoner: They will be deprived of all postal communication with their country and of the services of their | orderli and allowed only the regu- lation rations of common soldiers.

New York Central Brings: Action Against Adamson Bill---New Haven Also! Will Act, Says Elliott Washington, Nov. 15.—Attorney General Gregory has decided that suits by railroads against enforcement of the Adamson eight hour law will be defended by the department of justice. The defense to be presented in each case will be worked out be- | tween Solicitor General Davis and other department officials with United States attorneys in various jurisdic- tions. The department today was unable to determine whether it would be nec- essary to defend each of the many suits already begun or whether the railroads would be content to malke a test case of one suit. No word has reached the attorney general from the railroads suggesting such a course and if such a proposal is not made each suit will be defended. Reports that railroad and brother- hood officials had considered a sug- gestion that Mr. Gregory be asked to suspend operation of the Adamson law for thirty days were met with the statement that the attorney gen- eral has no such authority and that his only course is to defend the suits or let them go by default. N. Y. C. Files Suit. New York, Nov. 15.—The New York Central railway today filed suit in the federal district court to test the constitutionality of the Adamson eight hour law. The suit is directed against the three federal district at- s of New York state and the an of each of the four brother- hoods in the state. The road’s principal contention is, according to Albert Haris, general counsel, that the Adamson law “is in no sense a regulation of commerce, but a temporary and arbitratory in- crease in wages for the brotherhood men”. He said as soon as an an- swer to the suit was filed an injunc- tion against the operation of the law would be asked. Announcement that the New York, anq New Haven would also file suits to test the constitutionality of the { Adamson law was made here today by president. { The suits will be filed in New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut, he said, within a short time. Court Asked to Rule on Law. Philadelphia, Nov. 15.—The Penn- sylvania railroad company today filed in the federal district court here, a bill in equity asking for an injunction against the three TUnited States dis- trict attorneys in Pennsylvania for- bidding them from bringing prosecu- tions against the railroad company under the Adamson eight hour law. The court is asked to declare that the eight hour law is unconstitutional and void. Railrcad Men Plan Line of Attack. New York, Nov. 15.—Railroad man- agers comprising the “national con- ference committee’ continued today consideration of whether wholesale legal action to defeat the Adamson eight hour law will be taken or whether a limited series of injunc- tions will be filed. The concensus of opinion was said to favor the former course, which would result in ap- proximately 5,000 actions, covering the entire railroad territory of the United States. Whichever method is selected the cases are expected to be in the courts within ten days. In view of the fact that the lands committee is to hold hearings on the railroad generally beginnin, next there was an indication that action would be postponed until conclusion of these hearings.
