Edward J. Armstrong, chairman of the Eastern .Railwaymen’s Association, disagreed, .with the general view, how ever, predicting that the strike event ually would reach this city and en virons. He said a meeting of the As sociation would be held tomorrow in Jersey City to consider plans for com bating a possible walkout. •Reports that 400 men are out in the Syracuse divisions of the New York Central and the Lackawanna are exag gerated, an official of the New York Central said today. -Latest accounts gave the number of 'Syracuse strikers on each road as four train crews, or about 80 men alto gether. -Syracse, N.

This action is expected to decrease the number ot unemployed by many hundreds It may have no immediate effect however on the strike of the ma chinists in the factories. The latter, are now receiving strike benefits and claim to be able to stay- out indefi nitely. There were no gatherings on the streets near the factories this morn ing but fit several places state guards men were on duly, having been called uron last night for protective service. A hospital bulletin this morning stated that the condition of Police Lieutenant Richard Leroy and of Lieutenant John J. Bergin of the Sco- vlll Company’s force was very; much Improved. Both men are expected to recover. They were shot ln the riot yesterday. Another slight earth shock was felt in the Inglewood district, near Los Angeles at 5 o’clock this morning.

Konstantin Fehrenbach has been apointed chancellor definitely presages the construction of a bourgeois cabinet in the next 48 hours, and in new government circles it is stated there will be a sufficiently em phasized vote of confidence to enable the ministry to present an undisputed mandate at the Spa conference next monttu /Fleet Completes Target Practice.

DEMOCRATS MAY SUP\BEER PLANK” PLATFORM Leaders Look Forward to Fight on Convention Floor Over Bever age Matter—League Not Promi nent But May Struggle Over Oriental Problem—Palmer Pos ters Looming Up 'San Francisco, June 22.— While ho tel lobbies began today to take on the appearauce of a national political con vention, oaly a few of the Democratic chieftains who will figure prominently in the party’s quadrennial gathering next week had reached the convention- city. Direct developments of the day were confined to physical preparation of the municipal auditorium for the convention, and the work was well ad- vamced, but there was much discussion in progress as to elements that would be Involved in shaping the party plat form and there was strikingly little talk about candidates. “Wet” and “Dry” Rumble. Out of the talk of the day came an increasing rumble of “wet” and \dry” maneuvers. No definite statements were obtainable from leaders who •have reached the scene of battle but it was clearly indicated that they looked forward to a fight on tho floor 6 f the convention over efforts to ’ make the Democratic platform advocate modifi cation of the prohibition enforcement law through a “beer plank.” Some observers who had counted noses on the Resolutions Committee, w'hich will frame the tentative draft of the platform, said the “drys” would control by a sufficient margin to insure defeat ofe any wet plank in the com mittee draft. It was added, however, that If the question of permitting manufacture of mild beverages was brought before the convention itself, 'the result would be more In doubt. Pending the arrival of Senator Glass of Virginia, slated to be chairman of the committee, no direct! step toward sounding sentiment in the convention on the issue appeared likely. Oriental Problem Faces Democrats. The League of Nations issue did not fill a prominent placo'In talk among the leaders today, but possibility of a struggle over Japainese exclusion was ■suggested after Governor Stephens’s letter, to ‘.Secretary Colby, declaring the situation serious in California, had been read, coupled as it was with the statement of Senator Pehlan of this state that the Democrats should deal with the Oriental problem in framing the platform. Comment on this aspect of the situation did not Indicate, I iq w - ever, that it was now occupying ain important place in the minds of lead ers on the ground. There was no marked. activity among supporters of men seeking, tho presidential nomination. Posters urg ing the claims of Attorney General Palmer began to appear after head quarters for his boom had beein estab lished and workers in behalf of Gov ernor Cox of Ohio and other aspirants were beginning to arrive. They are not expected to get their campaigns iinto active motion, however, until later in the week. Headquarters were opened hero yes-, terday for Gov. Edward I. Edwards of New Jersey, with Malcolm Roy of New York in charge. New York, June 22.— A new trail has been taken up in the search for the murderer of Joseph Browne Elwell from the testimony yesterday of Jost Otten. who delivered milk nt the whist expert’s home. jit appears it was common gossip among Elwell’s neighbors in West Sev- ■entieth Street that ho was to arrive from the South with a bride; that this fact had appeared ln newspnpers, and that -when the prediction failed to ma teriallze it occasioned further ment.

Dublin, Juno 21.—Premier Lloyd, George’s demand that Irish railway men handle munition trains gives rise to an issue which must be fought out, according to statements made bp lead ers of railroad workers here. Many declare thQ premier’s attitude is a “bllff,” and that he is “too afraid of English labor to give it effect.” The general body of the Sinn Fein ers welcome the situation and are solidly behind tho railway men. Tho rialroad workers’ refusals to run muni tion trains havo been progressive, and nowr extend to the' point of declining to carry either soldiers or polico and even rifles. A strlko would hurt Irish trade, but as yet no voice has been raised against it, except from' the Unionist faction.
