2 UNIONS IN STRIKE HEARING GM VICTORIES Judge Chambers Declares He Will Not Allow Real Issues To Be Beclouded. Union leaders stored what they con sider a victory in several points today at the third day’- session of the arbiters in the Georgia railroad strike. Judge William L. Chambers announced that the board decided that the only bulletin to be considered in the evidence was that issued November 14. 1911, prescribing how the 16-hour law I should he complied with: that the board i would consider that trainmen under- ' stood the bulletin to mean that they should stay on duty 16 hours and then go off duty, even if the expiration of the Time caught them at such a point that they would have to proceed on to the next station or stop; that no more ex traneous testimony should be intro duced tending to waste time, and that no more questions be put to witnesses on the distance between Conyers and Lithonia, except to an expert whom the road wyxets to summon. On all these points the board was unanimous, and <the' desire seemed to be to hurry through, so that the question of wheth er or not Conductor Paschal violated the bulletin could he determined. Can’t Becloud Issue. James .Murdock, of the union forces, declared that it was the evident pur pose of the road officials to becloud the actual facts with a lot of extraneous testimony, but Judge chambers said: "Well, if that is what they're trying, they won't succeed." Mr. Murdock reiterated his charge, made from the beginning, that ulterior motives caused the dismissal of Con ductor Paschal, and the claim that Pas chal did not violate the bulletin. This bulletin was issued additional to a bul letin of 1908, which set forth the pro visions of the federal law, which pro hibited employees working more than 18 hours continuously. In the old bul letin there was no provision, it is stated, for getting rid of trains caught be tween points by the expiration of time, bu the new one made such provisions, as follows: "To engineers, Trainmen, firemen and < 'onductors: ,comply with the hours of serv ice law, the period of duty should be computed from the time the employee actually goes on duty to the time he is relieved of his engine or train, if a train is caught without instructions on the main line at any point by the ex- , pfration of the 16-hour period, the crew | will place the train on the sidetrack, go ■ off duty and report action to the dis patcher. "XV. S. BRAND, Superintendent." Brand Defends Road. This means, according to the union jeaders, that It Is Impossible at times to comply with the rule, since a man caught between Stations after working 16 hours would have to go on to a stop where he could sidetrack his train The company, on the other hand, Interpret.- the rule to mean that the men must take time out of 16 hours to perform such feat. Mr. Brand made for the first time a vigorous defense of the road, declaring that in only four cases hail an inspectot of the interstate commerce commission found grounds for Federal sulf grow ing out of violations. The railroads scored a point by the exclusion of a Southern railway engi neer. put up as a witness by the unions, the court holding that his evidence would be merely cumulative. A message to M. Shedd, a Georgia engineer, was read which ordered the engineer to proceed with his train in regardless of the 16-hour law. There were several other witnesses ami point! already covered were rehearsed. I HARMLESS TO OU TUR A Little Sage and Sulphur Makes Gray Hair Vanish-A Remedy for All Hair Troubles.
