25 Cento. At The AlUmont Cafeteria. he started for Cleveland to take up his duties, Mr. Stone never had been east of Chicago. Early In bis administration Mr.

Stone was confronted with a serious situation because railroad workers generally had become dissatisfied with their wages. The new leader handled the problem skillfully and in the end brought about satisfactory agreements. He grouped the transportation systems of the country Into eastern, western and southeastern sections. After Teaching agreements with the railroads in the two latter sections his negotiations with those of the eastern section be- camu deadlocked and the matter went to arbitration, an agreement being reached on the basis of those of the other sections. As grand chief of the engineer's brotherhood, Mr.

Stone took an active part in the campaign of the railroad employes' organizations for the Adamson law. In all negotiations he earned a reputation for always keeping his word and never losing his temper, and although he became one of the most prominent labor leaders in the country lie had gained the distinction ot never having been called upon to lead a strike. He was quoted once as having said: "It is a fundamental principle without which no labor organization can hope to exist, that It must carry out its contracts." One 6t Mr. Stone's early achievements In behalf of the engineers was the erection of the brotherhood 14-story office building in Cleveland. It paid for itself In ten years, at the end of which time it was valued at more than $3,000,000.

Another feature of his admnistratlon was compulsory life insurance for all engineers. During more than 20 years as chief executive of the brotherhood it Increased from a membership of 38,000 with $69,000,000 Insurance In effect to nearly 90,000 members carrying approximately $200,000,000 of life, sickness and accident insurance.

Stone presented a plan for an engineers' co-opeTative bank nt the triennial convention in 1918 and was authorised to start such a bank In Cleveland. It was opened November 11, 1920, with a capital of $500,000, and a surplus of $100,000. Three years later Us resources were nearly $25,000,000. This was followed by the establishment of several other banks throughout the country, controlled by the brotherhood, and In addition a substantial Interest was acquired in the Empire Trust Company of New York. Because the brotherhood co-operative bank could bandle only a limited amount of business under the restrictions of the national banking laws, the Brotherhood Holding Company, conceived by Mr.

Stone, was Incorporated In 1922 for $1,000,000, the stock being sold entirely to engineers. A year later the Brotherhood Investment Company was incorporated with a capital ot. $10,000,000. The brotherhood Tetalned 51 per cent ot the common stock of the enterprises. A 21-story building for the bank was erected In Cleveland and the Brotherhood Building Association acquired 17-story building in the same city.

Under Mr. Stone's guidance the engineers as individuals invested more than $2,000,000 In coal mine properties In Kentucky and WeBt Virginia and financed a mall order Btore on a. profit-sharing basis to provide themselves with the necessities of life. Mr. Stone was born on a farm near Alnswortb, Iowa, February 1, 1860, As a boy he worked on the farm in the summer end attended a country school three months In the winter.

He rounded out this preliminary education with study nt Washington Academy, Washington, Iowa, and at Western College, Iowa. He became a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers In 1884, six mollis after being promoted to engineer. His ability and his interest In the organization was rgcognized by his election as secretary-treasurer of his local division. Then he was made head of the local grievance committee and later chairman of the central committee of adjustment for the' brotherhood of the entire Rock Island system When he became bead ot the brotherhood he made his home In Cleveland and took an active part in all its civic enterprises, being especially Interested In educational affairs. In October, 1884, Mr.

Stone married Miss Carrie E. Newell ef Agency, Iowa. FORTUNE IN FLOWERS AT FUNERAL BEER RUNNER Chicago, June 12. O'Donnell, beer-runner and member of the notorious O'Donnell gang, was buried today with the usual pomp attendant upon gangland funerals. But the traffic Jam of expensive motors, the crowds ot politicians and representatives of other gangs that marked the recent obsequies of Dion O'Bannlon and Angelo Genna were lacking.

There was a crowd, but it was largely composed of the curious, and there was an estimated $60,000 worth of flowers, but the lavishness of the former tributes to gangland's dead leaders was absent. O'Donnell waa killed, with his henchman, Harry Hasemiller, when tbey attempted to hold up the Capitol Inn, in Evergreen Park. Exactly how O'Donnell was shot remained a mystery today. Tony Mallon, a free lance beer-runner, has confessed tha the shot Haasmlller, but denies killing O'Donnell- The invee ligation into the klling waa continued by Sheriff Peter Hoffman.

CLUB TAGS ADORN MANY CARS "One out ot every forty-two motor cars flfelivered to the public is stolen within two years. How much longer will a motor owning public tolerate such a condition?" asks Walter P.

ChryBler, president and chairman of the board or directors of the Chrysler Motor Corporation. "The responsibility is not upon the police, who are doing the very best they can. The difficulty Is that motor cars are so marked that they can be sold as easily as stolen. There may never come a time when some way can be found to Steal a motor car but surely some way can be found to make it more difficult if not very dangerous to huy a stolen car. On every car there should he some kind of a mark which is counterfeit proof, which cannot he removed and which la in plain sight and easy to read.

With such a mark police officers could eaBily examine the car and determine whether It is a stolen car. "Insurance companies have estimated that the average cost ot reconditioning a stolen car is 1150. With thousands of cars stolen every year think of the economic waste. "The cost of this crime of stealing motor cars is met by the car owners themselves in the form of premiums on insurance. Such premiums are high.

With the proper will be found surely some day rates will be cut down and eo will the number of stolen cars, "The stealing ot motor cars has reached a point where It must be checked. And it will be checked. American resourcefulness has had stiffer problems to contend with than this one. The motor car thief will be thwarted."
