BALANCE | Will Probably Go To A Referendum Vote By Railroad Workers.LABOR LEADERS Representing Eighteen Unions Are Reported To Be In Disagreement.- Chicago, Ili, July 31.\u2014(By the Ass'd.Press)\u2014Submission of the $600,000,000 rail wage award to a referendum vote by the 1,800,000 railroad workers without recommendation from the union leaders either for its acceptance or rejection, appeared probable tonight.This was the opinion in labor circles following rejection by the United States Rallway Labor Board of a petition for a re-hearing of the case.: Three courses were open to the union chiefs.First\u2014submission without recommendation.Second\u2014recommendation that the award be accepted, and third\u2014that it be rejected.The more conservative counsel in the union ranks has steadfastly opposed dutright rejection of the Labor Board's decision.The door to recommendation or adoption apparently was closed today, leaders of the railworkers intimated when they requested that the case be reopened, and the Board refused to accede.After asking for a rehearing it appeared doubtful that the union leaders could consistently recommend acceptance of the award as their action indicated it was unsatisfactory to them.The only course teft open, therefore, would be to pase the Board's decision along to the men and rely on their referendum.The Labor Board declined to reopen the case on the ground that its decisions represented the conclusions reached after an exhaustive survey in which both sides had been given smple time to present all facts 'sur- vounding the case.[ Ne anse Su be accomplistred at this time, members of the Board stated, by granting a re-hearing which would only serve to delay the case and prevent the men receiving their increased back wages in their August pay envelopes.A day of conferences between presidents of the eighteen unions recognized in the award and one thousand general chairmen of those organizations, failed to develop any common ground on which the leaders ware willing to issue a statement.Two days and a night of meetings have failed to bring the leaders together and W.G.Lee, Grand President of the Brotherhood of Raflway Trainmen, indicated the presidents would have no recommendation to makes to the General Chairmen before tomorrow.Milk and Passenger Trains.Waahington, D.C.July 21\u2014Mliik and passenger

much trouble among the miners of Cape Breton wa announced by H.J.McCann, General Marager of The Dominion Coal Company at this morning's sesssion of the Royal Commission at Glace Bay, at the same time it was announced that the tack of power which has tied up one or two of the mines for short periods will soon be completely remedied.For some years, miners have been required to push the loaded coal boxes out to main tunnels where they were picked up by mechanical haulage.In some cases the pushing covered à distance of five hundred teet and apart from the hard work, the men claimed they lost much production.Mr.McCann announced that the Company plans to reduce pushing at least sixty percent.Whenever possible mechanical haulage will be substituted and\u2019 wheres mechanical haulage is

and at length there is left only the | beanty of situation and design, everything that can be which were flung around in an utterly regardicss manner, enOVmOWS wages such as never known before came to the working classes, sad though there was snd lo much pinching of the middie sud salaried classes, à perfect orgy of extravagamce set in, which It feared, If it does not become checked through satiety, many unhappily end in privation, At other times the fabulous prices to luxuries have grows would have dictated prudence.- A present, un- fortunatelly, they seem only to encourage unprecedent- od expenditure, eapocially by those who never knew before the luxury of handling so suwch money, and who find their chief enjoyment in the reckless display of newly acquired wealth.Happy will these rockless ones bo if thoy learn wisdom before is is forced upon them by stern neceasity.OUR DISABLED SOLDIERS.Canada\u2019s work for her disabled soldiers is very much less known than it deserves to be.An American surgeon who was here a short time ago, and who had made it his business co visit several of the institutions tn which work was being done for these brave follows expressed himself with no uncertain sound ss to his admiration of what the Dominion is doing for them, and unhesitatingly declared that it was his opinolon that Canads was doing more and better work in this direction than any other country which had contributed an army to the war.The department of Soldiers\u2019 Civil Re-emablishment has issued a beautifully il.fustrated report of its work, dealing very exhaustively with its several activities and fully describing the operations of its different services and branches, Even the mere cataloguing of the various services performed in the interest of our returned heroes would occupy more space than could be devoted to a single article in the subject, and no descriptions of the beautiful Hlurérations in (he report, all of which are reproduc- tous from photographs in the highest style of the are could do them justice, Those of the various hospitals and resting homes for the men show them to be, for red.Of very special interest are the pictures ving the re Senator Derbyshire passed up at 9:25 a.m.yesterday.The coal barge No.¢ arrived up at 9:30 a.m.and left going up at $ p.m, yesterda, y e oo © The steamer Thordis passed up at $:40 a.m.yesterday.® + The steamer Maplemors passed up at 10:50 a.m.yesterday.° + .The Canada 88.Lines steamer Cape Diamond arrived up at 3:16 p.m.yesterday.e .The C.G.8.Canadian Sower passed up at 5:16 p.m, yesterday.* © À The Canada 88 Lines steam rived down at 6:20 a.m ing up at ¢ p.m.yester: .The steamer Rapidian passed up at 6:25 p.m.yesterday.° Tir» C.P.O.8 steamer Montcalm passed up at 7:28 p.m.yesterday.een ufacture of aniline The steamer Cairndown passed p dyes, as wel plentiful supply r \u201c of olf and gasoline.One of these st 10:16 p.m.yesterday.e ®e à The steamer Alexandrian pased down at 12:50 a.m.yesterday.e © a The steamer Mendi£ Range passeé down at 3:15 a.m.yesterday.» The steamer Ovre passed down ai 3:40 a.m.yesterday.German chemists had actually taken out a leare in 1913, but he dled on shipboard before reaching Cermany, so nothing ever came from his action, WHISKEY SMUGGLERS Duluth, Minn, July 21.\u2014Deputy United States Marshal Frank L Bradley, Chief of Police John Murphy, Duluth, Frank Shaetor, and John Hamilton, were Indicted today by a Federal Grand Jury, charged with transporting 1,38¢ quarts of Canadian whiskey to the United Bradley, Murphy and Schaefer are under bond liers, while Hamilton is believed to nave made his escape to the Canadiun side of the border.FCZEMA #2 Hd The Canada BS.Lines steumer Saguenay arrived down at 7 am.yesterday.The steam barge Astic arrived down at 5:07 a.m.Yesterday.The Canada $8.Lines steamer Cape Trinity left going down at 0:60 a.m.yesterday.e + »e \u2018The Montreal Harbor Commission tug Sir Hugh Allan arrived down ai 8:46 pm.yesterday.°.® » + The tug Hudson, with tow, arrived down at 6 p.m.yesterday.* 0 0 ah The steamer Ocean Monerch left fe Quebec, going down at 6 p.m.yes terday The flight of 6 train is like the throb of en enormous pulse in ihe arieries ef the nation.To slow the best is to slow she Kfe of HE train in this picture is one of the eleven hundred freight trains in daily service in Canada.It consists of one heavy-duty freight engine and 45 standard box gars.It can carry 2.000 tons of wheat, In 1913 its engine could have been built for $34.700 \u2014to-day $81.000;

decision and have had their representative on the board.The award will be given under every possible safeguard known to insure fair play.Labor's attitude is one that should make Investors cautious.Although money renewed officially at nine per cent.and loaned as low as.3 in the afternoon much higher Yates were paid unofficially for accommodations.Equipment Shares Strong In the late trading raliway equipment shares were strong.Some selling of Mexican oft stocks and particularly of Mexican Petroloum and Pan-American followed a bombastic anaouncement from Mezico that.the Carranza program would never be revised in favor of the oil companies.Reduction by the Pennsylvania Railroad of its clerical force to the extent of 10 per cent.will be foliow- o4 by others.This will release many thousands for useful labor, Offieisl announcement that the Pan-American will issue ten million , THE CANADIAN PRESS (By Caspdisn Prem) Now York, July $1.\u2014The only sotsworthy feature of todsy\u2019s stock market, apart trom the very limited dealings, was the stout resistance of teved to professional pressure.For the most part traders espoused the short side, but made little impres- «lon, save in isolated cases Railway shares led the market, so far as the list displayed any covery of transportation issues sug- Seated a possible adjustment of the more important differences now existing between the railway brotherhoods and executives.Advices from Washington strengthened the hope that the United States Inter-States Commerce Commission 1s likely to take early action on the request of the railroad heads for increased freight and passenger rates snd a possible baggage tax.Th¥ usual favorites in the Industrial and special divisions did little more than mark time, although shipping and express shares mads substantial advances.One of the few exceptions to the higher tendency was the sugar group, In which prices fell violently in sympathy with a sharp break in the raw product.Bales amounted to 300,000 shares.Reviews of conditions in the steel industry referred to increased signs of reaction in all lines of trade.Gradual improvement in the freight si- tuntion is expected, however, in connection with the advance in railroad wages.Interest in foreign exchange shift ed from European remittances to South America, the rate on Argendna recording a further discount, in marked contrast to the early months of the year, when Buenos Aires bills hers commanded a premium.Liberty bonds were firm, but most domestic issues.industrials us well as rails, showed nominal gains or Aeclines excepting Virginia deferred fixes, which were strong.Total sales (par value) aggregated $8,.500,600.\u2018 O14 United States bonds were unchanged on call.of new securities convertible into \u201cB\u201d stock will be made to-morrow.- This issue is to take care of new oli shipments through steamers and (RENE NURAANNSD other trinaportation facilities, and NEW I MARKET will thus earn for the company more $ \u2026.- YORK à than any possible interest charges! y -
