W RAIN EMPLOYES ORDERED 70 QUIT Order for Strike on All Rail- roads Effective Monday at T Unless Recalled. CHANGE TENTATIVE PLAN Washington, Aug. 29.—While Pres- ident Wilson was announcing that he vould lay the railway strike situation refore congress at the brotherhood leaders rejected the latest proposition of the committee of railway presidents and actually or- dered the strike to begin at 7 a. m. Labor day unless a settlement satis- factory to them is reached in the meantime. Their previous order for the strike was tentative and required a secret signal to put it into cffect. Unless a settlement satisfactory to labor lead- rs is reached before that time, or un- s President Wilson and congress find some way to prevent it, the strike will start Labor day without further yotice. The labor leaders admitted they took their action the first thing toda, m the belief that some means was being sought to prevent the strike actually being called. By their ac- tion they think they have anticipated any legal processes which might be brought against them. Brotherhood leaders, it was under- stood today, will fight the compul- sory investiation feature of President Wilson’s program, but support his eight-hour proposal. y Every effort will be made, it was said, to get separate votes on the propositions in congress, and leaders were confident that this could be done. A, B. Garretson, spokesman for the men, expressed himself as strongly opposed to the compulsory investigation plan, and while he did bring benefits to such numbers of nonunion men that the railroads doubtless would oppose it, and he thought the brotherhoods would be behind it. Canadian Plan Not Liked. “The Canadian compulsory investi- gation plan,” he said, “has proven ever has been devised. Invariably, md 1 speak from experience. in deal- g with railways, the railroad heads have used this delay guaranteed them by law to prepare for a strike. “The eight-hour day proposal fail- ing to carry, as it will, of course, any reference to wages, woud not em- brace our present demands.” In order to have any effect on the present proposed strike the presi- dent's legislative program would have to pass both houses and become a law before Monday :norning. the men have Icft their trains, com- pulsory investigation would not ai- fect them, in the opinion of brother- }, hood officials.

To cite an actual occur- en n 1910 the men upon eighty rail roads in the eastern territory of the United States presented to the rail- roads of that territory a demand for an increase in wages. The companies fused to deal concertedly with the proposition and it was, therefore, tak- én up with the individual roads. Three of the properties were Canadian and two days after negotiation was opened on January 7 on the first road in the United States negotiation opened on the three Canadian properties. The negotiations in the United States in- v cluded federal mediation in the first instance and arbitration in the third 1 case. i | Means Endless Delay. ‘On July 19 following settlement was made on the last of the scventy- scven American lines involved. On the same date at 6 p. m. a strike took place on the Grand Trunk railway, one of the Canadian railways, settle ment not having yet been effecte on any one of the three, this growing out of the delays, which the employ- ers were able to interpose under the industrial disputes act. “Moreover the period of investiga- tion is eternally utilized by the em- s e Buy PEARS Now Most stores have the following :— s bu. boxes Bartlett Pgar: (s0 called .

Patterson of Austin, te commis sioner of insurance and banking, was shot and probably fatally wounded ate today in the lobby of the Farmers and Merchants bank when, it was said, he started to post a notice that the institution should be examined. J. E. McKinnon, state bank examiner, was fired at three times, but no bullets took effect. After the shooting officérs arrested T. R. Watson, president of the bank, and his two sons, W. R. Watson, cashier, and J. E. Watson, vice presi- dent. They were later released on bagds and their examining trial on charges of asault to murder were set for tomorrow.
