RAILROAD PRESIDENTS
SNUB PRES. WILSON
WASHINGTON, D. C„ Aug. 22.—
The railroad outlook is not im
proved this forenoon by the actions
of the railroad presidents who wen!
out of their way to turn down the
invitation of Wilson to attend a
conference.
Of the sixty presidents who have
arrived in the capital, practically
all are opposed to Wilson’s plan.
A counter proposal is indicated
by the announcement that the rail
road Presidential executive com
mittee is formulating a reply to the
Wilson plan which will be soon sub
mitted.
President Wilson called a cabine'.
meeting today to meet the railroad
presidents on the understanding
that they would be on hand. When
the latter were notified that every
thing was ready, the curt reply was
sent the White House that the rail
road heads were as yet unprepared
for a conference.
Up until noon that was the status
of the railroad situation. It is prac
tically certain that the members of
the railroad brotherhoods are losing
patience and the rank and file de
mand a general strike without
further delay.

JAPAN DENIES REPORT
ATLANTIC NAVAL RASE
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 22.—
The Japanese Embassy point blank
denies as ridiculous the report that
they have now or at any other time

fully than the Japanese.

the Bessarabian problems and will
at once mobilize eight hundred
thousand men.
The news is officially confirmed
md the sensation is tremendous.

is now ready to throw in its lot with
the Allies is unquestioned and Is

of Russians landed today in Saloniki
to join the Allies. They received an
ovation and were welcomed by
Servian troops which marched ahead

a deep impression, as it is finally
dissipating the dreams of a greater
Greece which the Constantine gov
ernment has been sedulously culti
vating as certain to spring from a
neutrality favorable to, or an actual
alliance with tlie Central Powers. It
is now held that Itussia will corner
whatever expansion might have been
available for Greece or will enable
the Slavic Servians to extend their
border southwards.
