Speakers Talk in Many Tongues he at " Adventists' Camp Hastings, Neb., Aug. 18.—(Special.) —The Seventh Day Adventists’ camp has transformed Heartwell park into a little city. An elevated choir plat- form has been erected in the pavilion two arbitrators for roads, two for the men and two for the public. The dis- position of many of them was said to- day to be to insist upon action of that character and not yield to President Wilson's plan for an eight-hour day unless it comes before an arbitration board. Some of the presidents are said to feel the public will support their offer to arbitrate everything in dispute. Some others, however, were of the opinion that if President Wilson chooses to exercise his power and refuses to press the men for ar- bitration, it will be difficult for the railroad presidents to continue oppo- sition to his plan Long Discussion by Men. After the employes’ meeting had been in session for an hour one of the leaders came out and said senti- ment for the president’s proposal was by no means unanimous, but no or- ganized opposition to the plan had appeared. Most of them thought the proposition good in the main, but a number objected to it. “There are about 500 men in there clamoring for a chance to speak,” said the leader who came out, “and if they are heard, as many of them doubtless will be, there is no telling when we will get a vote.” W. L. Chambers of the federal mediators went to the men’s hall at the request of brotherhood officials to explain some of the features of the situation. He went into executive session with the heads of the four brotherhoods on the subject of over- time, In the men's meeting the leading objection to President Wilson’s plan was that if it were accepted without extra pay for overtime the men de- manded, the railroads would contend that the sole purpose of the men was to obtain more money and not to get the eight-hour day. Wilson Prepares Statement. During the morning President Wil- son pnparcd a statement rewcwmg the negotiations and explaining why he chose the plan of settlement based on the eight-hour day. The statement probably will be given out later. Among the railroad executives who arrived this morning from Chicago were: R. H. Ashton, Chicago & Northwestern; C. H. Markham, Illi- nois Central; H. R. Kurrie, Monon; W. J. Jackson, Chicago & Eastern Illinois; M. J. Carpenter, Chicago, Terre Haute & Southeastern; M. W. Potter, Carolina, Clinchfield & Ohio.

Then, her work | accomplished, she flung him, dying, | to the floor. Quick as thought she was kneling beside him and, thrusting her hand within his blood-soaked vest, she drew out the long, blue-bar- reled automatic which he carried, | gambler fashion, in a sling beneath his armpit. Cocking the weapon, she paused only long enough to pick up the book which Carrillo had tossed to the floor, and then moved on tip- toe toward the door. Tied to a tree a few rods away was Carrillo's chest- nut mare, ready saddled. But as she | darted toward the animal a heavy hand fell upon her shoulder and she whirled about to find herself staring full into the evil countenance of Jose. And in his face she read suspicion. | Without an instant’s hesitation she | raised the pistol and shot him through the heart. The crash of the explosion brought two other figures running toward her in mad haste; the first the other was the ruffian Manuel; the was Morton. As the bandit came within range she again raised her weapon, took careful aim, and fired. The bullet struck him in the stomach and with a scream of pain he stopped, whirled about, stumbled a few paces, {and fell headlong. “What's happened?” called Morton. “Where's Carrillo? Where did you | get the gun?” | “I've killed him!” she gasped. “I | stabbed him with a table knife * * |and I've learned where to look for the secret of the submarine!” hold- ing up the book. “Great heavens!” he “where did you find it?” “In the cave,” she answered. |of Carrillo's men—-" but she was interrupted by a shot and the whine of a bullet passing overhead. The rest of the bandits, aroused by the | two shots she had fired, were running toward them. “Quick!” cried Morton, imperative- ly, “give me the gun. * * * I'll stand them off while you get on the horse * * % then I'll get up behind you and we'll make a break for it.” In obedience to his command she a!handed him the weapon and turned [to untie the horse. As she did so, Morton caught her by the throat, | wrested from her grasp the precious | volume, hurled her to one side, and ‘s ang into lhe saddle. ‘ou fool,” he snarled savagely, ejaculated, “One |- “do you think I intend to let you get the formula?” and, striking his heels into the horse's flanks, he thundered across the little valley, leaped the brook, and, to an accom- paniment of shots and oaths from the bewildered outlaws, dashed through the fissure in the rock and disappeared. So astounded were the bandits by Morton's melodramatic escape, and so intent were they on his capture, that they failed to observe Olga, who, aided by the twilight which was now at hand, slipped from tree to tree and from rock to rocks until she gained the hssure which was the only exit from the valley. As, tottering from weariness and exhaustion, she slowly made her way down the moun- | tainside in the gathering darkness, she was spurred on by hatred and the hope for vengeance.
