PAINE TO BELAID TO REST Three Times Defender of the America Cup Brave Officer in Civil War, Early Promoter of Railways the men was opened with a statement by A. II. Garretson of the Conductors, as spokesman, lie outlined the demands for an 8-hour day, and time and a half for overtime, lie insisted that the demands wre fair. President Wilson then ad-diessed the men, pointing out what disaster would follow a general strike and insisting that an agreement must be reached. The President then asked to know the specific things on which the employes were prepared to insist.

Mr Garretson did most of the talking for the men, and he and the President discussed the situation thoroughly. Mr. Wilson promised to take the demands up with the managers in an effort to find a common ground on which the two sides could meet He said he was anxious to settle the difficulty as quickly as possible and was prepared to remain in continuous conterence all day if necessary. LONDON, Aug 14 Attacking British positions near Pozieres, on the Somme front, the Germans laBt night gained a foothold temporarily in a portion of the trenches taken from them yesterday. The communication follows: "Last night to the west of Pozieres the enemy gained a temporary footing in a portion of the trenches captured by us yesterday.

Otherwise there were no developments on the British front between the Somme and the Ancre. South of the Ypres salient we carried out a successful raid without incurring any losses ourselves. There has been further mining activity. We forced an entry into a German gallery at the bluff north of the Vpres-Comines Canal, and after exploration blew in a considerable length. We captured some of the enemys mining stores.

We also successfully exploded a mine near Cor-donnerie. WASHINGTON, Aug 14 Prospects for averting a Nation-'wicjjs railway strike, or at least for the formulation of some tentative program wljich will be the groundwork for further negotiation, brightened today after President Wilson had conferred with 35 representatives of the great brotherhoods. When the conference had closed the brotherhood men declared the Presidents grasp of the situation and the position of the men might result in an understanding being reached, and others in touch with the conference said the representatives of the men showed a disposition to cooperate to avoid a strike. The President, according to those who attended the conference, showed a familiarity with the situation that surprised the men. Shortly after 2:30 the managers committee, at the conclusion of a half-hour conference, went to the i- kV White House to meet the President, Conference Encouraging There were 19 managers in the party After bpinR Wlth lhp prPHldent two and all were silent over the develop- jlourS( repre-w ntatives of the ments of the conference of the men and the President earlier in the day.

Upper Picture Site of Billy Sundays Tabernacle. Lower Picture Mr Robinson Holding Spade With Which Ground For Tabernacle Was Broken 7 SEEING AND KILLING" SUBMARINES Ministers from all sections of Greater Boston and from more distant parts of the State, together with a number of others interested in the Billy Sunday campaign, gathered at the old Hunt-mgton-av ball grounds this afternoon, to see the fiist shovel of dirt turned, the first step toward the erection of the revival tabernacle Some of the Sunday campaign songs familiar to the workers were sung, under the leadership of John A. Robertson one of the committee, and solos were sung by Ernest Naltzger, formerly soloist with J. Wilbur Chapman, the evangelist.

1 Joe fepiece, the man who is going to direct the building operations, was the background, but Ex-Mayor William B. Blodgett, ot Woburn, chairman of the local building committee, and Allan Emery, general chairman, spoke brieflyq as did Bishop John W. Hamilton. Mr Emery said in part: "The interest in Mr Sundays coming to Boston is very great and widespread It Js certain that the great mass of people throughout New England who have no sinful or other selfish interests to be considered are eagerly waiting his arrival, and when he mounts the platform of this Tabernacle on the 12th of next November he will receive the greatest welcome of his entire career Mr and Mrs Sunday will bring with them i4 associates, who are all specialists in the particular field, of religious work which thev will undertake. We intend to have 20,000 consecrated Chris-ian people actively at w-ork in the campaign bv the time the meetings begin.

The organization of such a campaign as this must be very complete and efficient to reach a city for God, but more important than organization is prayer, sacrifice and consecration on the part of Mr Sunday and his party, and the many thousands who give of their time "Thfie are 25 churches in Greater Boston thus far actively cooperating the campaign, and manv others will begin tt participate next month. We believe we can safely count on the of about 400 churches by the time the campaign begins. "The prayer meetings, peisonal W'Ork Bible study features of the campaign are enlisting a multitude of people, and the church that fails to avail Itself of this most unusual opportunity will lose a great blessing afla oe verv sorrv hen the campaign is over, A baseball player can never sccre any runs bv sitting on the bench, neither can a church get anything out of this campaign bv simply looking on and putting nothing into it "This great campaign will not be merelv local, but will reach in its power and influence throughout the New England States In my judgment, it will be the President again later in the day, after he had conferred with the managers. Mr Garietson refused to say whether the outlook was hopeful As long as the matter Is in President Wilsons hands we will have no statement to make, said Mr Garretson Mr Garretson was asked whether the negotiations were off. lie replied: Absolutely not.

One of the leaders of the four brotherhoods, after leaving the White House, characterized the conference with the President as most encouraging," an declared the outlook for the prevention of a general strike was hopeful President Might Be Arbitrator While no grounds for the feeling were given, Administration officials expressed confidence that the Presi- (ontlnned on the Sei-oml Page. I President Sympathetic The President was most sympathetic, said one of the brotherhood leaders, and his surprising knowledge of the situation and of our position may result in an understanding being reached. The President, it was said, submitted no counter-proposition to the men, but he held out hope for an adjustment by legislation, if necessary. The Impression prevailed among the brotherhood leaders that as a last resort the President might ask Congress for eight-hour-day legislation. The leaders explained to the President tlieir stand against arbitration by saying that they were carrying out the wishes of the 600 delegates who sat -with them at their meeting with the Federal mediators.

The delegates, the President was told, in voting on whether they should accept or reject the mediators proposal to arbitrate, voted unanimously for rejection. The brotherhood leaders presented to the President detailed reports of the vote cast in favor of a general strike. ITALIANS PIERCE ANOTHER LINE ROME, via London, Aug 14 ltal-.

On the remainder of the front small but sharp encounters took place on the slopes of Forame, at the head of the Costeana Valley, on the Boite and on the slopes of Mt Clvarone, in the Sugana Valley. The enemy was repulsed everywhere and left about 60 prisoners in our hands. Hostile batteries bombarded villages in the Upper Chiarzo and Cordevole Valleys.

They were silenced by our artillery. Last night hostile aircraft dropped bombs on Monfalcone and other places on the Lower Isonzo.
