Atwater, and Wwere turned down, continues today with no apparent signs of either side conced- ing a point. The petition presented to the management asks that here- after the ‘closed shop” method of securing employes and the conduct of the work be adopted. It also asks for a 60 cents a day increase In wages and on holidays when the men do not work they are to receive pay as usual, and in cases when called upon to work holidays, double time is asked. It had been reported that the linemen had demanded eight hours a day, but this is denied by Manager Atwater. When seen today on the subject, Mr. Atwater sald that all construction work of = the company has been stopped, but in case of any emergen- cy arising where men will be needed, the office will be able to successfully cope with it. No new work is being considered, and none will be under- taken at present. Mr. Atwater said that steps were under way for lay- ing off many of the men owing to the lack of work for such a large force. It is the view of the officials that the strike came at a very opportune time. The striking linemen are affiliated in union circles with the electricians. While the company is not opposed to employing union men, they adopted the policy of hiring any workman who might satisfactorily do the work, re- gardless whether he was a union man or not, and in turning down the de- mands of the local strikers, the com- pany claims it is simply carrying out its policy.

The spirit among the troops everywhere is ex- cellent. The advance so brilliantly began has every chance for success- ful continuation.” This was the reassuring comment on the Russian military situation made by Major Gen. Hugh L. Scott, chief of the general staff of the United States army, on his return from a ten days’ tour along the southwestern front. \ Gen. Scott described in detail and with the greatest enthusiasm the Russian advance of June 30, which he personally observed at close range from a point near Brzezany. “Few observers,’ said Gen. Scott, “have had such opportunity of view- ing the active operations of a Fu- ropean army since the war hegan. When we arrived at Tarnopol the Russian artillery preparation had been in progress nearly forty-eight hours, but we were in time to watch the brilliant climax. “We journeyed from Tarnopol the firing line in automobiles were escorted to the trenches A tremendous bombardment was in} progress and the Austrian lines were being attacked by a continuous tor- rent of shells. The point that struck me most forcibly was the ac- curacy of the Russian fire and the effective concealment of their bat- teries. The Austrian artillery was| good but mnoticeably weaker. Men in Favor of Advance. “The precision and exquisite work- ing of the Russian machinery was a marvel to me. Every man was in his place and therc was not the slightest sign of Insubordination or reluctance. among the men. Each officer and soldier did eagerly and unhesitating- ly what he was told. The spirit of the men themselves was in favor of an advance. “We spent the night at the head- quarters of the Sixth Corps of the Eleventh Army, but early in the morning of the next day we returned to the trenches. Clambering out of the . trenches into a wheat field on the summit of a ridge overlooking the Austrian positions we watched the end of the battle. “The artillery preparations suddenly; the order, to advance given and the whole Russian awept forward in perfect unison. 1 was somewhat dismayed when, in a short time. T saw thousands of men pouring back again. But T soon d covered that these men were Aus- trian prisoners who came running with all speed into the Russian lines, apparently with a single thought— that of surrendering as quickly as possible. “The Russian casualties were com- paratively slight. as it was possible to judge by the small number of am- bulance wagons which the Russians sent forwar Gen. Scott said that the spirit and | discipline of the Russian troops dur- ing this engagement was merely a sample of that which he found at other points on the front. The sol- diers were ready to advance when- ever called upon, and the morale of the army in general was infinitely hetter than he had been led to be- lieve in Petrograd. Can Count on ‘““We can count on go on fighting.” the conclusion, After a stop at (‘zernowitz, the cap- ital of Bukowina, the Scott party went direct to Ja . the seat of the Ru- manian government, where a lunch- eon was given in their honor by the king and queen of Rumania, who ex- pressed their appreciation of Amer- ica’s entrance into the war. The | king told the general that Rumania | would derive fresh courage from an | ally which had the reputation of fin- ishing what it undertook. The party | was received formally by members of the Rumanian government, and Gen. Scott delivered an address before the | Rumanian parliament Fxcept for a few final conferences with the members of the Russian government, the work here of the Root commission has becn concluded.
