But Officials Deny It. ET. PAUL. Dec. 7.

Everything; la julet. was the only comment President hewley of the 8w1tchmen's Union would ytake to-day on the strike situation. The Inen continue to assert that the railroads Ire tied up. but the railway officials say the strike Is broken. L.

E. 8hephard. senior Vice President of the Order of Railway Conductors, who baa been In St, Paul for a few days, lamed an order last night to all conductors Ihat they must observe strict neutrality. Gov. Eberhart, who canceled all enlevements In order to on hand ahould Iventa connected with tha switchmen's itrlke demand his attention, haa decided ihat ha will not be needed In that connection.

Tha Governor started to-night or Washington to attend the National Rivers and Harbors Congress. Fifteen Jobbers and manufacturers, Constituting- a committee from the Jobbers' Union and the manufacturers of St. Paul, to-day made an inspection of the xerminais ana iranmer sinuous in ana about Minneapolis and St. Paul to ascer tain the actual conditions as a result of the strike. After a tour In a private car, the committee gave out a statement In which It aald that "freight Is being: inoved In a very satisfactory manner, and although normal conditions do not pre Upon the vny a man spends his time-outside of very largely depends his efficiency in business.

Many prominent men of large affairs are today making music their, hobby. 1 This has come about since the invention of the PIANOLA, an instrument that makes music an intimate part of the lives of persons wholly without musical training. The very act of playing the is restful to busy brains. It is easy to play, yet it rewards the; degree of intelligence that is put into the playing. That is one of the things that makes the PIANOLA appeal to the kind of men who are temperamentally active, and like to be active even in their pleasures.

The Aeolian Company's record of sales shows that the PIANOLA is bought by leaders in rail at all points, a rolum of business aboufc normal was being; handled at soma pomta." The statement concludes: "We feel Justified, therefore, in announcing to our customers throughout tha entlr Northwest that they may order goods freely without fear of serious delay." RAIlSvaTTiEADS CONFER. Daxr, Truesdale, and Others Discuss Anticipattd Wage Demand. A conference was held yesterday at tha office of the Central Railroad of New Jersey between President George F-Baar of tha Philadelphia Heading Railroad and tha officials of some of tha other railroad companies. "While tha conference was on general railroad matters, the much-discussed demands of the trainmen and others In the operating forces of the railroads cam under discussion. Mr.

Baer left for Philadelphia as soon as tha conference, waa over. Ha would not discus the anticipated demands of the trainmen. W. 1L Truesdale, President of the Delaware, Lackawanna A Western Railroad, who was at tha conference, said afterward that the matter was not open to discussion because the railroads had not yet received any demands. In reference to the employment of members of the Switchmen's Union of North America, ha aald: We have members of this union employed both at Scranton and Buffalo, but they have made no demands and have not struck, Thla I know only Incidentally, as we do not consider tha question of union affiliation when we employ the men." Asked if he expected any trouble with the trainmen, all he would say was: "Well, there ought not to be any Fifth Vice President James Murdock of the Brotherhood Railroad Trainmen returned here last night.

I have sent a telegram," he said, to a paper in New Tork which has been publishing sensational accounts of a National strike to the effect that the Idea of a strike of the trainmen was absurd, and that all reports to the effect that a strike Is contemplated are misleading. That teleirram the paper did not see fit to publish. There will be no strike, and we never thought of such a thing. We have not formulated demands yet, and any requests we nray make for hlghir wages will not be made before the new year." BIO FOUR STRIKE PROBABLE. Operators Expected to Deliver Ultimatum to Railroad Soon.

Special 10 T0 AVte Timts. CINCINNATI. Dec 7. That 1.000 op erators employed by the Big Four Railroad will strike next Monday now seems probable. The road refuses absolutely, through General Manager J.

Q. Van Winkle, to- sign the scale which would allow the telephone operators, levermen. and car distributors to get the same pay as do the telerraphers. While no- ultimatum has been sent to the company, one Is said to hare been rtrenared. and It will probably be delivered to-morrow or Thursday.

Ohio. Dec 7. The strike of the employes at the Aetna- Standard plant of the American Sheet and Tin Plate Company, which haa caused so far the serious Injury of half a doxen men, the calling out of 1,500 militiamen, and an estimated loss to workers, plant owners, and the State ot over $100,000, Is temporarily at a stand still. It Is now generally believed that before the week Is out the strike question will be arbitrated and terms reached whereby the former employes of the com pany, who are all members of the Amal gamated Association of Iron. Sheet, and Tin Plate Workers, will.

return to their old Jobs under conditions suitable to all concerned. Vice President Lewis of the Amalgamated Association intimated to-night that he had been approached by represents tlvea of the tin mill company with over tures for an arbitration' of the strike Officials of the American Company deny any such overtures have been made. Officials of the American Sheet and Tin Plate Company conferred with tha home officers in Pittsburg to-day, discussing thre propositions to end the strike. Tha first was the dismantling of the tin milLi here and-the transferring of the orders to other plants ef the company throughout Xhis district. The second was the Importation of strikebreakers In great numbers to operate the mills and clear up the accumulation of orders now on hanl under the protection of civil and State authorities.

The third waa a proposition submitted by Joshua Bishop of the Ol.o State Board of Arbitration calling for the appointment of either President Taft or Gov. Harmon, of this State. as a committee of one before which the strikers will place their grievances and stand ty the oecislon of the person chosen. What was oclded was not made public Only 600 troops remain here on guard. Gen.

Such men know that an evening spent with the PIANOLA, in the atmosphere of beautiful music, and in the home circle, is wisely spent Music, even in its lighter and more pomilar forms, has a distinct tonic value to the mind. It clears up brain fag and drives out the recollection of petty annoyances. Particularly is this true when you produce the music your' self.

The making of the PIANOLA an integral part of the piano has vastly broadened the usefulness of the instrument In the PI ANOLA Piano, the keyboard is always ready for playing by those members of the family who have command of technique. But in addition, the musically untaught may also find solace and pleasure in direct contact with the great, art of music. THE AEOLIAN COMPANY AEOLIAN HAIL, 3S2 Fifth nttr Street, KEW YORK JOSH DREW TOR0W1I OFF HORSE A1ID HDRT His Mount Tramples on Him in the Park, Breaking His Collarbone. HURRIED TO A HOSPITAL His Play at the Empire, Inconstant George," Stops and tha Thea-tre Is Closed. While riding a skittish Horse along the bridle path In Central Park at noon yes terday John Drew, the waa thrown violently to the grounds His horse trampled on him, and he sustained a broken collarbone and severe bruises about the head and face.

He was removed to the Presbyterian Hospital, where It was said last night he was resting comfortably. While he will be laid up for some time, Mr. Drew's Injuries are not serloua. He has been playing at the Empire Theatre in "Inconstant George." Just how long it will be before he can resume his work his manager, Charles Frohman, could not say last night, but It Is probable that he will not be able to return to the stag for several weeks. The accident occurred about 1 P.

M. It la Mr. Drew's practice to take a ride through Central Park, every day he Is in town. Yesterday, accompanied by his daughter, Louise, he started for his usual ride. He Is a good rider, as is his daughter, and the two seldom miss an opportunity to try the mettle Of thalr steeds along the well-kept bridle path tn the Park.

Mr. Drew rides his own horse, which he named Jack Straw from the play he appeared In last year. The pair, going at a brisk canter, neared the Centre Drive, about opposite Sixty-fourth Street, when Mr. Draw's horse, scared at a piece of jumped violently to one side. The actor was thrown out of his saddle, and fell directly In the path of the horse.

Frightened at the paper and the way It had been suddenly brought up, the horse began plunging around, and a hoof struck Mr. Drew oo the left shoulder, breaking his left collar, bone. When he pitched from the saddle he landed on his forehead and lay senseless. Miss Drew, who was only a few feet behind her father, stopped her horse lust in time to avoid trampling on the prostrate man. She quickly dismounted and ran to his assistance.

Mr. Drew's horse, bereft of its rider, started to run away, but was caught by a policeman of the Park sheepfold sub-station before It hud gone far. Miss Drew raised her father's head and tried to drag him from the road. Just then the policeman came galloping up. He had tied Mr.

Drew's horse to a tree and came to the daughter's assistance. "My father Is badly hurt; help me carry him off the road," pleaded Mlaa Drew." The two carried the injured actor to the grass at the side of the road aa Mr. Drew gained consciousness. At that moment Frank Piatt, tbe son of ex-Senator Thomas C. Piatt, came along in his automobile.

He had left his home at Seventy-fourth Street and Madison Avenue, and was on his way downtown. Seeing that Mr. Drew was Injured he offered to take the actor In his machine to the nearest hospital. The offer was accepted. Mr.

Drew was put Into the automobile and th chauffeur made quick time to the Presbyterian Hospital. Miss Drew and the policeman went with him. As soon as the party reached the hospital Mlaa Drew caled up her nvMher at the Hotel Webster. 40 West Forty-fifth Street, where the actor also lives, and she hurried to the hospital. Al Hayman also was notified and was soon at the actor' bedside.

At first It waa thought that Mr. Drew's Injuries were serious. After a careful examination, however, by his private physicians. Dr. J.

A. Blake of Col Madison Avenue and C. L. Bagg nilCTi, tile HHI" tuslon on the forehead waa found to be only slight. The fracture of the collarbone, while painful, was not serious Dr.

Ramdell of the hospital staff said ine acior was oomg nicely at midnight, and If he remained auiet he would noon be on his feet again. Mr. Drew Is 50 years old, and this fact, the physicians saia, wouia mean tnai nis recovery would be slower than if he were a younger man The Empire Theatre was dark last night, a notice being posted to the effoct that, on account of the accident to Mr. Drew, the play in which he was appearing would be indefinitely postDoned. We were going to close the play this week, anyway," said Al Hayman last night, and the accident to Mr.

Drew only makes a change of a few nights In the original programme. But we do not care anything about the play. Our concern Is entirely about Mr. Drew. The physician says mat nis injuries are not serious end we are most hopeful of tha result We hope he will be about again within a week." Large bunches of flowers were received at the hospital last night from Mr.

Drew'a admirers, relatives, and friends. There were also many notes and letters. One of these was from Mrs. Colt, Mr. Drew's niece, who Is Ethel Barrymore on the stage.

The first seneral Taft meaaaare la a great contrast to the Roosevelt documents with which Congress and the country were so familiar. There Is not a bludgeon or a big stick In It. and the only mrat is that regarding possible action toward tha Demetuatlon of lrresDonsi- tle government," which Is nothing terrifying. The general opinion of Congressmen was that It -Is a quiet, dignified, and conservative message. i na iresiaent a menage aroused varying; emotions among the members of tha House.

Speaker Cannon, whose attitude with regard to It waa awaited with unusual Interest, lined himself up firmly behind It. with the statement that it con tained recommendations for legislation of vital Importance to the country, and that such legislation aa was not mentioned was reserved for special raesaares. Chairman Payne of tha Ways and Means Committee and James K. Tawney announced briefly that It was a good message." tnucum came rrom the le moo rate in statements from Chamn Clark, leader of the minority, and Representative Fitzgerald of New York, who led the break of tne uemocrata in the vote on the rules. Mr.

Clark commended tha President's stand in favor of economy tn public expenditures, but declared that the country would be astonished to learn that the Monroe Doctrine Is obsolete." He theught that since the discussion of almost all 1m- I portant matters Is relegated to special messages," mere was reany not mucn to be said about the document one way or the other. Representative Fltsjrerald charred the message with Inconsistency, and especially where It declared the relations of the united States with foreign countries have continued upon the normal basis of amity and good understanding." He declared that the perpetuation of declarations of party platforms" was an innovation, and wound up with the statement that this message will caiue no Joy in Darkest Africa, whatever Ita rffoct on the undesirable cltlsens and wenlthv Much Interest attached to the way the Insurgents would regard the President's measege, especially its recommendation for postal savings banks. On this Usue mere is a strong prooaDiuty that a struggle wlU take place between them and the regular which mar result In lining them up with Taft and against Cannon. Victor Murdock. in speaking of the postal savings bank phase of the -n as-sage, said: "I ant particularly gratified ror one, over the president assertion in regard to postal savings banks, which is completely frank, forceful, and direct.

The President shows that there is no reason for delay in this legislation. It is not necessary, as he Indurates, that the consideration of postal savings banks snouia wait until alter tne. report of the Monetary Committee is made, for it ii not apparent that the postal savings system would Interfere in any way in a change in our monetary system. By giving thla timely expression for action In carrying out one of the planks In tho Republican platform the President has made more difficult the consummation of a legislative plan to postpone postal savings banks, and his reiteration of the proposition in his message, in view of the measure's powerful opponents and their evident scheme to sidetrack it. Is highly gratifying to the friends of the In the matter of recommendations for legislation the President has exercised a surprising restraint.

Of course, most of tne items of controversy are left to be covered in tha special messages which he promises. He makes in this message only six recommendations. One of these is urgent "that for publicity of campaign contributions. Another that for ship subsidy is earnest." The others are Just plain recommendations, covering tne appointment oi a commission to revise the Federal cAurt roe win re so as to expedite appeals and lessen the cost to litiirants: the declaration of the Republican platform ragarding the Issuance of Injunctions by Federal courts; provid ing tor me creation or an executive council for Alaska, and the amalgamation of the Bureau of Manufactures and Statistics in the Department of Commerce and Labor. He approves the recommendation of department heads for an amendment oi tne naval personnel law eo that Officers mav reach rommnnrl rank earlier In life: that army officers be pro- muicu according; to merit; ror tne establishment of postal savlnirs banks; for tho creation of a civil pension list for Government clerks, and for civilian control of the Naval Observatory.

He "asks" Congress to continue the Tariff Board and commends to Congress the entire subject of the loss to the Government through urneivftHi eerina-cinss mail.
