CELEBRATION SPECIAL

The Tribune today pre­sents its Pageant and-Gol­den Jubilee Special Edition, dedicated to the pioneers of Bismarck and Western North Dakota, to the city's fiftieth anniversary and to those whose untiring ef­forts made possible the bridging of the Missouri river with the mammoth new vehicular bridge.,

Included is historical matter of Bismarck and western North Dakota— a history that should be ki>own to all and which is unexcelled in any region of the country ^s a story of perserverence, courage and faith. Because of conflict usually developing over the chronicle of past events of a community, The Tribune has, as far as-possible, con­fined its historical record to approved personal stories of those who took part in the stirring events and to printed records.

The edition is'made pos­sible by the hearty coopera­tion of merchants of the Twin Cities, who have joined in the celebration of next week.

EXJUNCTION IS '« Airvr npnp NOT DROPPED

Chicago, Sep. 14.—Despite the partial settlement of the railway shopmen's strike yesterday, the in­junction fight in Judge James H. Wilkers6n's court on Attorney General Daugherty's application for a permanent restraining order against rail strikers continued to­day.

Peace settements would not al­ter the government's determina­tion to finish its case, spokesmen for the Attorney General said.

81-YEARS OLD, BREW ARTIST

Muskogee, Okla., Sept. 14.-*-An 81 year old inmate of the county old folks home here was ejected by the authorities when they found that she had a complete wine-mak­ing apparatus hidden under her bed, together with several quarts of the completed product. Officials said the grapes for the wine were stolen from the county farm.

Washington, Sept. 14.—Advices to:

the Labor Department today from its j representatives in Chicago said the railroads approximating 35 percent of the country's mileage had signi­fied their intention of ending the shopmen's strike on the basis of the agreement accepted yesterday by the shop crafts general policy committee and that roads representing an addi­tional 30 percent were ready to end the strike.

The commission decided upon to adjudicate the differences between workers and rail heads, as provided under the agreement, labor depart­ment officials were informed, will be compos*! of six shop crafts representatives and not officials of the railroad brotherhoods as orig­inally provided. Section four of the agreement, the advices further explained, wias interpreted in Chi­cago by union workers to mean that the railroads signatory to the agreement will meet union repre­sentatives on wage questions and all other matters growing out of the strike and upon failure to agree on points at issue the questions un­der dispute will be referred to the commission provided for in section five.

Officials Pleased The development in the rail

strike situation was received with satisfaction by all administration officials including President Hard­ing. Many would not comment for publication preferring to wait un­til an actual settlement had been reached, bufc"tet "the treasury, it was «ald that Secretary Mellon took the. view that with an end, to in­dustrial troubles the outlook for business was "very good."

Mr. Mellon was said, however, to see limitations upon the transpor­tation facilities of the railroads, which would prohibit any enormous expansion of business activity in the immediate future. Shortage of equipment and possible labor shortages are the limiting factors in Mellon's opinion.

Can Handle Coal Normally the railroads of the

country require about 100,000 cars a year added to their rolling stock equipment, it was asserted, and as this supplement of rolling stock has not been kept up the carriers ability to handle traffic would be limited, for the present.

Nevertheless Mr. Mellon was represented as seeing no difficulty ahead of the carriers in supplying the needs and requirements of the country over the winter particu­larly in the matter of coal.

Chicago, Sept. 14.—The M>t tlement of the shop men's strike on certain raJlrads sus­tains the transportation act,

. and should the questions upon which the strike was predicat­ed come back to the United States Railroad Labor Board, Mtlie fullest and fairest con­sideration" will be granted, Ben ff. Hooper, chairman of the Labord Board, said in a statement today.

federated railway shop crafts who today began negotiation of separate settlements of the shopmen's strike which began July 1, in accordance with the agreement adopted by the unions' general policy committee, an­nounced that several railroads had telegraphed union headquarters in­dicating willingness to start nego-itations. These the leaders said, were in addition to about fifty roads which previously had agreed to sep­arate settlements.

The Chicago and fJorthwestern, one of the large western systems, party to the agreement, was expect­ed .to meet leaders of its shopmen some time today with the possibility that the men would return to work tomorrow or Monday. The road of­ficials had not been notified thi» morning, when the shopmen's repre­sentative would appear but it was said the basis of agreement .bad been nproved and the conference would be entirely informal.

Members of the shop crafts policy committee who \ yesterday approved peace plans for ending the railway strike through separate agreements with individual roads, today began separate negotiations under terms of the agreement. ,

REPORT DUBLIN IS UNDER FIRE

Belfast, > Sept. 14.—Reports from Dublin today tell of heavy fighting heard i"over a wide area in that city shortly after midnight. It appeared as if several posts were being at­tacked.

By two o'clock, however, quiet again prevailed.

Advices from Cork state that Tim­othy Kennifick, a prominent repub lican, was dragged from a lorry b> an armed band and that later he was found shot dead.

GOAL RUSH TO DOGKSCLAIHED

One Railroad Places an Em­bargo Upon Shipments

BRIDGED.

St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 14—T'n> influx of bituminous coal to La!:r Erie points is so great that tiu Baltimore and Ohio railroad, on of the principal carriers of coal i;. the soft coal regions, placed a tem porary embargo on all shipments to continue until all docks at east­ern points are able to load the fuel, C. P. White, federal distributor for the Northwest, was advised today.

The coal is coming in such large quantities that dock facilities can­not cope with the situation and the embargo was made necessary to clear the congestion, Mr. White said.

Mr. White again emphasized the need of consumers of coal in the Northwest, including the public utilities companies, to begin the purchase of their supplies of bi­tuminous if the coal is to begin to move into this district.
