here. It Is clnitnrrf thnt the court's

Judge Pnge tuliHcqucntly upheld Hie
I.andls declclen. vvlilrli vviim rc:irdcd as
a blew nt the authority of the Iaber
Benrd ns n pnrt of the Government.
Solicitor General James M. lteek rp
pealed from the decision of JikIre 1'nc"
and yesterday the Court of Appeals sit
ting en banc reversed Judge Page.
Empty Victory Seen
What this lnt decision nieati", m
effect, ii thnt the I'ennxjlvnnin llnil llnil
read will be compelled te meet, or
recognize, the slinporefts In, Mdecting
committees te confer with the etlirluN
of the read. That It the purport of
the decision or. Its face.
According, however, te authorities
here, It Is an empty victory for the
Laber Beard, and if the I'ennsjlvania
Railroad desires te continue te iininrc
the Laber Heard's decision, as it has
done in the past, it can de se. because
under the law the beard has no power
te enforce any decision thnt it mnv
make against the Pennsylvania or any
ether railroad.
If this view is correct, the t.itua ue
of the railroad's position with it em em
peoyes Is net disturbed bj the court's
decision
The Laber Heard vesterdav niihllslmil .
another decision, exactly parallel te that
of the Pennsylvania, and of equal in
tercBi.
It affects the Philadelphia and Read
ing. And the Rending met the fata
of the Pennsylvania. It has been or
dered te reverse its action that it had
taken, similar te that of the ether read.
Reading Case Similar
As the cases are se similar, nnd bear
directly upon the same subject, there
Is Riven herewith the elHclal account
of the Reading's contrevcrsj with Its
men, which parallels the Pennsylvania's
case na It was erlgluall decided by the
Laber Heard, and the beard's decision :
"Dispute has been tiled with the La La
eor Beard wherein it is claimed by the
United Brotherhood of Maintenance of
Way Empleyes and Railway Shep La
borers thnt they icprescnt a majority of
the nmpleycs in the maintenance of
way department of the Philadelphia and
Reading Railway Company and should,
therefore, be permitted te negotiate en
agreement with the management affect
ing this class of cmplejes. The man
agement takes the position that the or
ganization has at no time furnished It
with bennlide authorization indicating
that they leprc-cn'ed n majority of the
maintenance of way empleyes and have
accordingly declined te negotiate an
agreement with them.
"The evidence shows thnt after con
ference with representatives ,f the
maintenance of way organization, at
which conference, it Is nllvgcd by the
management, said organizations failed
te submit authorization from a majority
of the empleyes involved, the manage
ment circulated a ballet among its
maintenance of way empleyes, which
ballet did net specify the name of any
labor organization whose b.vlnws or
constitution establishes the fact that
the organization was established for the
purpose of performing the functions of
a labor organization, but made prevision
for the selection of representatives ir
respective of organization aflill.itien. As
a result of this ballet certain repiesen
tatlves were selected who. In conference
with the management, negotiated rules
and working conditions under which the
maintenance of way empleyes nre new
working.
Anether Rallnt Ordered
"The emplejes parties te this dis
pute, have taken exception te the
method pursued by the management in
taking tlie ballet referred te, and re
quest that the Laber Heard authorize
the taking of another ballet, and that
the organization be permitted te par
ticipate In the formulation, distribution
and counting of said ballets, and that
the name of the organization be shown
thereon.
"Decision The Laber Heard decides
that nnether ballet shall he taken.
"Separate ballets shall be piepnrcd
for the following groups which indicate
the clnbses of cmplejes eligible te vete:
"(A) Empleyes In the maintenance
of way department (net including su
pervisory forces nbove the rank of fore
men), shop and roundhouse laborers
(Including the gnag lenders), transfer

Still nnether Interesting development

OLD PAY SCALE TO CONTROL
By Anteciated Press
1-anslng, Mlrh., July 21. Governer
Groesbeck today asked the striking
miners in Michigan te return te the
mines, either under public or private
control. In n message sent te T. I.ee
Jenes, of Saginaw, president of Dis

go back te work nnd produce coal suffi
cient for the needs of inunli Ipal and
State purposes. He gave the miners
until Monday night te reply.
The message indicated that. In the
absence of any word from Washing
ton regarding the Governer's suggestion
thnt the mines of this State be placed
under public control, the State would
take ever the mines unless the opera epera opera
teis and miners get together prier te

"I am of the opinion." the Gover Gover

of jour organization could, without
jleliling any vital principle Involved,
agree te the operation of the mines
pending n llnnl adjustment by the no

charged with impersonating an enlisted
man of the United States Navy. Knl

where he had been held n prisoner by
the naval authorities, though he is net
In the navy, for eighteen dnys. It was
testified that he was wearing a sailor's
uniform when arrested by Federal

"Nick" Ellis, sentenced te eighteen
months In the Heuse of Correction for
unlawful possession of drugs, then pn pn
reled by Judge Harnett nfter he had
served two, Is In jail nguln for viola
tion of his parole.
"Nick the Barber," ns he Is known
in the Tenderloin, lind been following
his calling In n barber shop en North
Ninth street. He was arrested Inte
vrsterdny nnd tednv taken by Captain
Van Hern te City Hnll. where be was
turned ever for commitment te Chief
Probation Officer Hackney.
, Ellis was nrrested en n bench war
rant Issued by Judge Mennghnn nt Mr.
Hackney's request. As the nrrest wns
made en a bench warrant, "Nick" will
net be given n hearing by n magistrate,
but taken into court direct.
When nrrested "Nick" declared he
was net n 'hall lumper," nnd that he
had net knowingly violated his pnrele.
However, the records show that lie wns
Indicted twice, once In the Federal
Courts and once In the County Courts,
for violations of the drug Inws. He
contends he wns net pnreled but dis
charged. Did Net Repert, Hackney Says
"I hnd Ellis brought In." snld Mr.
Hackney, "because he had net re
ported te this office nt regulnr Inter
vals, ns Is required of prisoners who arc
given their liberty under the parole
net. I shnll commit him, nnd consult
Asslstnnt District Attorney Mnurer
about the ense.
"I shall suggest thnt Judge Bnrnett,
who sentenced nnd later paroled Ellis,
come here and Inquire Inte the pnrele,
if Mr. Mnurer approves this course.
At all events, Ellis will be taken before
the court, nnd will be given nn oppor
tunity of explaining. If his ntterney
told him thnt he wiu free nnd need net
report te this office thnt will be taken
Inte consideration."
Director Wnrburtnn. of the Depart
ment of Welfnre, under whose super
vision the Heuse of Correction comes,
denied emphatically today that Ellis
was n parole violator.
"That story Is made out of the whole
cloth," snid Mr. Wnrburten. "The
record shows thnt Ellis was net
paroled, but discharged. He wns net
obliged, therefore, te report. If he has

Is Issued te that effect by the courts,
Anether Mix-up Seen
Tf the official records show that Ellis
wns "discharged" and net paroled, as
Mr. Wnrburten believes, there is nn nn
other strange discrepancy brought te
light. In the records of the Court of
Quarter Sessions there is a decree
signed by Judge Harnett which says
thnt "after due inquiry," It is "there
fore ordered und decreed that the de
fendant. Nicholas Ellis, .be discharged
en parele for the remainder of his sen
tence, in accordance witli.tlie previsions
of the Act of Assembly," etc.
Ellis remained in jnil n few nays
mere than two months. Under the law
Ids sentence could have been reconsid
ered nnd his dlschnrge from custody
without parole granted by Judge Bar- l
nett if the Judge had called tne case
up at the same term of ceutt. An it
was two months later, however, n
parole was the only thing thnt could
be granted legally.
Judge Mennghnn nt least was under
the impression that a pnrele hed been
granted when he Issued a bench wnriant
yesterday.
"Nick." when rearrested, admitted
thnt he hnd been Indicted twice since
the dnte of his parole. He said that
"Sam" Meleney, sent te the Heuse of
Correction trf serve n term Imposed en
him for his share In the notorious Fifth
Wav,d election scnndnl. hail helped him
get his nnrele. "Nick the Barber"
used te shave "Sam" nt the "Correc
tion," nnd Maleney premised te get his
friend, J. flurrwoed Daly, an assistant
District Attorney, te seek his release.
"Nick" declared he was surprised one
day te learn thnt his release had been
ordered and thnt Mr. Dnly hnd come
te him and said: "Here Is jour dis
charge; you're free."
Worked as Barber
"Nick" said he went te Ohie te
work for a brother who helped get
his parole nnd premised te leek nfter
him : found work slnck and returned
te Philadelphia and worked ns a bar
ber. He was arrested in Jnnunry, he said,
held in $2000 ball which later was
reduced te $WV0; and while nvvnlting
trial was picked up again by mem
bers of the vice squad. Beth times
he was charged with drug vinlotiens.
Tim second nrrest, he said, wns n
"frame." He was Indicted n second
time nnd held in $000 bnll for court.
Ne dnte has been fixed for this trlnl.
"Nick" declnred he had gene te
Brooklyn te see his sister who wns
ill, with the consent of his counsel,
when nvvniting trial In the May term.
His case came up, he says, and n
IjewIi wnirant was issued for 1ilm
nfter his lnwjer hnd tried In vain for
a continuance. He says he returned
Immediately and "Beb" Belger, Assist
ant United States Attorney, agreed te
let the case go ever te Septemlier, nnd,
therefore, the warrant wns net served.
"When my cases ure called, I ulll

TACNA AGREEMENT

Hughes Hails Chilean-Peruvian
Pact as Sweeping Victory for
"Conference Plan"
By Associated Press
Washington, July 21. The agree
ment of Chile nnd Peru te nrbltrnte

ed by the plenipotentiaries of the two
Governments tedny nt a finnl session
of the Chilean -Peruvian conference
linrrt.
Signature of the arbitration protocol
nnd its complementary net was eegiiii
at 11:4.'i A. M. nnd wns completed at
11 :40.
The agreement was hailed by Secre
tary Hughes ns n sweeping victory
for" the "conference plnn" of interna
tional negotiation.
If war Is te be prevented when in
ternatienal controversies arise, tue nee
. , (Iecinrcd, it can only be nccem
innestlv desire te erase difficulties
rather than te keep them alive.
The Tacnn-Arica settlement Mr.
Hughes described ns the grentest ac
complishment of the generation in the
direction of pence in the western hemis
phere. On behalf of President Hard
ing lie accepted the designation of
arbitrator given the Chief Executive in
the arbitration protocol, and thanked
the delegates of both sides for the
spirit in which they approached the
tasks of the conference.
"I believe this te be the dawn of n
new day in hntin America," said
Secretary Hughes. "This- long-standing
controversy has 'been n sere pet
and this nmicablu adjustment is the
healing which gives premise of the de
velopment of better relations through
out Latin America and of the promo
tion of the growth of sound opinion. It
Is a vindication of the processes of
peace.
"It is easy te talk of the prevention
of war, but inevitably there will be
differences nnd serious controversies,
and if these nre net te be settled by
force, there must be pcueeful solu
tions which can be hnd only through
tlie efforts of governments which de
terminedly seek pence and mnka it
possible by providing for the contacts
of honorable and reasonable men whose
ability, ingenuity and wisdom will be
utilised net te devise grounds for con
tinuing differences but prncticul bases
of agreement."

Van Hern's Testimony
The commission plnCed great stress
en the testimony given nt the hearing
by Captain of Police Vnn Hern. In
part the verdict says:
"In the course of his testimony Cap
tain Vnn Hern dwelt upon the diffi
culty thnt tlie ordinary patrolman,
whether lu uniform or In plain clothes,
hnd in dealing with tlie gambling fra
ternity, which wns described ns being
closely organized nn(l composed of men
who make It their business te keep in
formed concerning the personnel nnd
activities nf tlie police force.
"The enptnin also disclosed hew It
was posible for nn efficient policeman
te knew of the general existence of
gambling nnd yet be unnble te get the
evidence necessary te secure n convic
tion in court.
"Tlie conclusion te be drawn from
this testimony was that the only way
with which te successfully cepe with
gambling wns through agents specially
rctnlned for this purpose. This conclu
sion wns nniplj sustained by the testi
meny of Special Agent McAuley, who
wns nble te secure evidence vvhen all
brunches 5f the police force had failed,
and the nuisance wns duly abated.
"Te held the seventeen defendants
responsible, ns charged, It would hnve
been neeessnry for the pollen bureau
which conducted the prosecution te show
net only thnt it was possible for the
district detectives and the uniform force
Je secure evidence, but thnt they knew
)f the existence of this plnre.
t "With the exception of three of the
defendants, there wns net a scintilla of
evidence thnt nny one of them knew the
plnce had been previously suspected ns
headquarters of gambling, nnd ns te the
three the testimony wns of n monger
chnracter."
The patrolmen exonerated, nil of Fif
teenth nnd Vine streets station, ure:
District Detective Patrick II. Dee
gan, District Detective Jnmes Hag
gerty, Street Scrgennts Geerge C. Mul
hnllnnd, Jnmes M. Gregery, Jnmes

lowing patrelmen: Hey D. Callahan,

J. Ceyle, E. J. Deedy, I. A. Watts,
Jehn E. Merri, Jeseph Cellins, Samuel
J. Huhn, Jnmes Hareld, Rebert C.
Dallas.
Asked Ills views concerning the ver
dict, Mr. Cortelyou said:
"I nm heartily In nccerd with the
suggestion of the commission. A con
fidential fund Is badly needed te in
vestigate and suppress nil forms of
vice. Tills is no reflection en the po pe po
lleo bureau, for it Is unu'ble te obtain
information which unknown agents may
cnslly get."
The churges against the men named
grew out of their failure te report thnt
a boekmaklng concern epernted In a
building near Sixteenth und Market
streets.
