Hanger, of the United States Board of Mediation and Conciliation, is In Chicago negotiating with the railways and the union lead ers. It is understood here the switch men arc not anxious for mediation. The seriousness of a tie-up in Chicago, cutting off the West and Northwest from the eastern munitions plants and the coast supply porta, may justify the Department or Labor in taking a hand, although nothing has yet been done. CHICAGO, July 28. Twenty-five hundred switchmen on nine teen railroads out of Chicago went on strlko earlv today. Although the strike Is In the local switch Ing yards. It will bao a depressing effect on virtually all tranicontlnental traffic. If the strike Is prolonged It will seriously hamper movements of troops and war sup plies. Coal, fuel and food will also be tied up and factories which nio working night and clay on war munitions will bo seriously affected. TWO FACTIONS AT WAIl All factories will be hit If tho strike continues, but the railroad heads today were hiring men to tako tne places of the strikers. V.iB normal freight car movement In Chicago If 30,000 cars a day, but of late, because of war conditions, It has been 3D, 000 cars or more Tho strike is primarily tlio result of the efforts of 2600 members of the Hrotherhood of Hallway Trainmen to obtain a closed shop. This group comprises only about half the local switchmen. The others are members of tho Switchmen's L'nlon of North America and aro affiliated with the A. l' L. They were at work as usual today. With organized labor supporting the Switchmen's Union of North America, tho strike resolves Into a fight between tho railroads and organized labor on the one sldo nnd tho brotherhood switchmen on the other. Hundreds of switchmen from all parts of the, country were pouring Into Chicago today to aid the railroads In breaking the strike. The Switchmen's Union of North America, which charges the Brotherhood switchmen with striking to force tho S. U. N, A. to the wall by asking for a closed shop, is said to be aiding the railroads in Importing the strike-breakers. Kears of a sympathetic strike by tho Hrotherhood of I'nglnecrs, Firemen nnd Conductors wero dispelled today with the announcement that these men would re main at work. Large details of police were sent to the railroad yards to guard against violence. It will be a fight for liberty and democ racy against the autocracy of "Kaiser Bill" Lee. president of the "H. II. T.," said W. J. Troust, general organizer of tho Switch men's Union, RAILROADS AFFKCTED Tho following roads aro affected by.the strike: Atchison, Topcka and Santa Fe, Balti more and Ohio, Chicago and Alton, Chicago and Western Indiana, Chicago and North western, Chicago, Burlington and Qulncy, Chicago Junction, Chicago, Milwaukee .and St. Paul. Chicago, Indianapolis and Louis ville, Indiana Harbor belt, Illinois Central, Lake Shore 'nnd Michigan Southern, New York, Chicago and St. Louis, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis, Pitts burgh, Fort Wayno and Chicago, Belt Rail way of Chicago, Wabash, and Chesapeake and Ohio. RAILROADS DECLARE EMBARGO Tho railroads last night sent out no tices of an embargo on live stock and perishable freight to and through Chicago. This announcement was made ly Frank Ilasler, of the commltteo of railroad gen eral managers. Mr. Hasler said the embargo notices would bo sent as soon as possible. The em bargo, he said, would be for the duration of the strike, ending automatically as soon as a peace agreement was signed, George P. Hanover, chairman of tho road's conference committee, sent the fol lowing notices to the city officials: Tho conference committee of managers of the roads aro threatened by the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen with n strike of the yardmen 'employes In their Chicago terminals If they do not make concessions which would establish tho closed shop In favor of members of their organization and deprive the manage ments of tho power to select yardinasters and their assistants. The railroads are also threatened with a strlko of the members of the Switch men's Union employed In their Chicago terminals if they do yield to the demands of the Brotherhood of Railroad Train men, because this would close the door of employment against many members of the Switchmen's Union. The conference commltteo has proposed mediation by the federal Mediation and Conciliation Board, which has been de clined by tho Brotherhood of Railroad A "strike vote has been taken, and Mr. Murdock. vice president of the trainmen, has notified us that tho members of his Srganlzatlon In the Chicago district will be withdrawn from service at C a. m. Saturday. July 28. This means that there will bo a great deal of interruption to traffic in the Chi cago switching district.), while the rail roads will need protection to enable them to "conduct their business. James Murdock, vice president of the brotherhood, denied that tho switchmen were seeking a closed shop, and charac terized the reasons given out by the rail road managers as causing the strike as "unqualifiedly Incorrect." He said 98 per cent of the switchmen had voted In favor of a strlko because the railroads had re fused to grant requests made by the brotherhood.

Confronted with a deficit of $7,000,000, ooo In Uncle Sam's war chest, financial ex perts In Congress today became convinced that another bond luo of at least iO.OOO,- 000,000 will bo necessary before tho end of the present session. Whether to nuthotlzd stieli an Issuo In connection with tho war tevenue bill Is tho problem with which tho Senate Finance Commltteo began struggling today. The committee began work today on the revision of tho revenue bill, mado necessary by the submission of estimates ft mil the Secretary of tho Treasury showing that tho aggregate of war expenditures, Including loans to the Allies for the flist year of tho war. will run beyond tho $17.000,000,Ot)0 mark. Loans nlrcady authorized to tho Allied Governments amount to $3,000,000,000. An additional $2,000,000,000 loan is contem plated bi'foro tho end of the present enr. Another big merchant shipping budget will bo necessary, In tho opinion of members of the Finance Commltteo. Secretary of tho Treasury McAdoo has estimated that ap piopriatlons already made, pending and proposed will total $11,051,000,000. Ito cclpts tinder existing law, plus tho $2,000, 000,000 already subscribed, will leavo $7,000,000,000 to bo raised by additional war taxation nnd bond Issues. Thcro Is a strong Kentlment In the com mltteo ngalnt Increasing tho revenue bill beyond tho $2,000,000,000 mark. Members feel that levies much boyiind that flguro would necessitate tho tapping of herctofoto untaxed sources and would not add to tho popularity of tho war. If tho war rcvenuo bill is not held to tho $2,000,000,000 mark. It would bo necessary either to add an ad ditional amendment providing for a $5,000, 000,000 bond Issue or bring out a separate bond bill. HAtmiSIlUIUJ, July 28.
