Chicago Feb. ll.Lnbor officials
representing 15 brotherhoods today
mapped out the campaign of their re-

bardment against the national agree-
ment on trial before tho United States

unions as to when they would be
ready to proceed with the case.
Yesterday's ruling of tho board
denying the railroads' request made
through W. W. Alterbury of the
Pennsylvania lines for Immediate
abrogation of the agreements brought
the case back to its regular schedule.
Frank P. Walsh retained as the
legal battery for tho brotherhoods

ter bearing the decision. It was said
lie would probably return next week.
Meanwhile a committee of IS broth-
erhood officer Is working on a reply

ployes' committee declared yesterday

had "been up in an airship" and had
devoted all his time and that of the
committee to preparation of a reply to
the Alterbury reqinst now denied.
When tho board adjourned yester-
day. It set Monday as the tentative
Int.. for reconvening following the
usual custom of reserving Friday

Oklahoma City Feb. 11. Support
ers of tho bill authorizing the state
to lease thn sanitarium at Clinton for
the use of former service ineu suffer-1
ing from tuberculosis today turned
again to the lower house of the Ok-
lahoma legislature to see their pro-
ject completed. Tho senate yesterday
passed the bill. Tho house bud lire-1
viiius! taken such action but had
found it necessary to reconsider in
order to correct a technical fault in
the bill. Inasmuch us tho original ac-
tion was overwhelmingly in favor of
tho measure it is believed the hos-
pital bill's final passage is assured.
The senate yesterday was thrown
into an uproar by the finding of two
anonymous letters on each member's
desk signed "tax payers" which de-
clared that certain senators should
bo expelled from their seats because
they held other state positions be-
fore becoming members of the legis-
lature. During the barrage of Invecl-
1as laid down by members of the
InRjy on the unknown author of the
letters Senator Wallace of Paula
Valley moved that tho bill making It
a felony for a legislator to hold a
state position be called from com-
mittee. After order had been restored
R. L. Davidson In the chair ruled
that the bill should be called out of
committee and placed on tho calendar.
An appropriation bill aggregating
J i:397 5j0. 9:1 to meet the expenses
of all state institutions for the next
two fiscal years was introduced in the
house yerterday by Den F. Harrison.
The bill follows tho outline given by
Governor Robertson in bis budget.
Mr. Harrison said tho bill is not the
final product of tho committee but
is to serve as a basis for final action.
The first night session of the pres-
ent session of the legislature will be
held next Tuesday night by the lower
house when it will consider the bill
dealing with flood prevention end
drainage. F.y a special vote taken
today at the suggestion of Represen-
tai.io Jerkin of Oklahoma county the
house decided to hold tho night ses-
sion. Tho house .'us committee of the
whole reported out senate bill No.

gee which would confer on the state
