UNDERTAKERS Frank M. Van Houten, 32 Seventh Avenue Phone Sterling 315 PACKERS ACCEPT DAVIS AS MEDIATOR OF WAGE DISPUTE Assume, However, That Justice of Reductions Will Not Be at Issue. Chicago, March 12-After an allday discussion by heads of the packing industry, a telegram was sent to James J. Davis, Secretary of Labor, at Washington, accepting his suggestion that they send two representatives to confer with him and two representatives of the employees, regarding the present situation in the industry. The telegram, which was signed by Armour said: "Your message received.

Will be glad to follow your suggestion." A statement given out at the same time that the telegram was made public said: "We assume that the justice and necessity of wage cuts will not be at issue. Nor can there justly be an issue on the matter of hours." Secretary Davis's offer of personal mediation in an effort to avert a threatened strike in the industry also was accepted by the union leaders. The statement issued by the packers made no mention of the war-time arbitration agreement which was cancelled by them on Feb. 26, and says regarding the recently announced reductions of wages and readjustment of working hours that "except through such measures as we have adopted the possibility of industrial difficulties that might close our plants would stare us the face." The statement follows, in part: "The Nation's insistence on a return to normal and its refusal to pay war prices in peace times, have caused the prices of our products aggregate to drop to what are practically prewar levels. This has forced the price of livestock downy to a point which threatens the existence of the livestock industry.

Our own business has been conducted at a loss for two years, but all that time our operating expenses remained at the war-time peak. Wage reductions, therefore, are not a matter of choice--they are essential not only from the employers' standpoint but from the standpoint of livestock producers, who to bear with us the losses involveaving Strike Ballots Sent Out. Meanwhile the strike ballots are on their way to every local union in the country and the vote will be taken next Wednesday. "There'is no question of what the result will be," Mr. Lane said.

"The referendum is merely a matter of form. It was with some difficulty that we restrained the delegates at Omaha from immediate strike and purfrom an immediate strike and pering the vote." Washington, March 12-The formal replies of the packers and of the employees in that industry to Secretary Davis's telegrams offering mediation in the wage reduction controversy were not received at the Department of Labor tonight and pending their receipt the Secretary withheld comment upon the texts as given out at Chicago. Neither would he comment on the statement given out by the packers' representatives together with the text of the telegram of reply stating that it was assumed the proposed conferences between representatives of the packers and of the employees here would not consider as at issue the question of wage cuts or readjustment of hours. The Secretary said, however, he would set a date for the conferences as soon as the replies consenting to the discussion had been officially received and added that Secretary of Commerce Hoover and Secretary of Agriculture Wallace, whom he consulted before proffering his personal mediation, would be asked to take part in them. Their advice would be valued, ho said, as both those departments are vitally concerned with conditions in the packing industry.

UNDERTAKER. m15-Ll What has become of the "startling revelations" with respect the Hylan administration predicted to be forthcoming after Meier Steinbrink of Brooklyn, became independent the associate, coun- city contracts initiated by the Board of Estimate? This is a question that has been puzzling politicians and city officials for some time, but they find no answer. Steinbrink answers the question this way: "Nothing to say. What I have discovered has been turned over to Mr. Whitman and the Grand Jury and of course I cannot discuss it under the circumstances." Steinbrink, who had gained a repuseveral years ago in the successful engineering of the fight that resulted in the.

conviction of "Curly Cassidy and William W. Willett on the charge of buying Supreme Court nominations, was named as Republican on the counsel staff of the Board of Estimate's probe last November. On Dec. 7 he was instructed to conduct the probe into the charge that the city had lost thousands of dollars by the filling the courthouse site with ashes on the order of Grover Whalen. On December 19 came the prediction that along with the investigation of this there were to be some surprising developments and that Steinbrink after Jan.

1 would step into the limelight, take the lead role of inquisitor, up to that time filled by Corporation Counsel O'Brien and Assistant Counsel William B. Carswell, and "bring out startling developments in testimony." Politicians and city officials have waited three months for the "startlers," but nothing has developed. On Jan. 17, Steinbrink filed a report blaming former Street Cleaning Commissioner MacStay for the ash dumping matter, and practically exonerating Whalen, whose connection with it had been excoriated by Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the Lockwood probers. Since then matters in the Steinbrink sector have been very quiet.

Steinbrink has not appeared in the role of chief inquisitor at the Board of Estimate te hearings. In fact, recently the hearings themselves have been few and fair between, and have developed little of interest. Steinbrink is still rated as counsel in the matter. He has stated that he is "continuing his work" but repeatedly declined to discuss it, except to say that what he had found had all been turned over to the Grand Jury. Republicans who had looked for "something big" from the man who steered the Cassidy-Willett case, have been disappointed.

Steinbrink had been regarded as a very effective fighter and much idolized in the Republican ranks; but recently his stock has fallen. The Republican leaders got their first surprise in the Travis matter. Steinbrink was designated by the leaders at Saratoga during the last G. O. P.

convention to probe the charges and present to them an opinion on the cases against Controller Travis and Deputy Controller Wendell with respect to the alleged loss of State money in bond buying. Steinbrink reported nothing that alarmed the leaders, and Wendell was nominated for State Controller. Then after his election he was indicted together with Travis, and the matter is 110 hanging fire in New York County. The recent surprise that nothing sensational should develop out of the contract inquiry after Steinbrink entered it has been another shock to them, and they are wondering whether anything ever will come of his inquiry into city contracts. DAUGHERTY OUSTS KRESEL AND RAND, PALMER'S AIDS Washington, March 12---Announcement was made at the Department of Justice tonight that Attorney General Daugherty had dispensed with the services of Isador J.

Kresel and William R. Rand, who were appointed by former Attorney General Palmer as special assistants in New York in connection with the building prosecutions growing out of the Lockwood Committee investigations. No explanation of the Attorney General's action was made at the department but it was suggested that the employment of additional attorneys in New York involved considerable expense which could be eliminated.

According to the information obtained by the Health Department, he, from time to time, employs recently arrived immigrants, and the Commissioner believes that in this way probhe became infected with typhus vermin. -Dr. William L.

SMALL FIRE SPECTACULAR A large crowd witnessed a spectacular blaze yesterday afternoon on Greenpoint a few feet from the Newtown Creek Bridge leading toward Blissville. The. fire was caused by an accumulation of oil in the basin which flows from the Sone Fleming Oil Works, a subsidiary of the Standard Oil- Company.

How it ignited is still a mystery. A tongue of flame shot upward about 100 feet and caused considerable excitement among passengers on board a car of the Greenpoint Line, but the motorman put on power and quickly got away from the scene. The crowd believed for a time that the oil works were again afire. Policeman Shalle turned in an alarm. STATE SEEKS LONG DELAY IN TRIAL OF BASEBALL PLAYERS Chicago, March 12 (By the Associated Press)---Formal announcement today by the State that a six month's postponement would be sought in the trial of Chicago White Sox players accused of throwing the 1919 World Series, brought charges from defense attorneys that an attempt was being made to shelve the case and leave the indicted players permanently under a cloud of suspicion.

The trial is scheduled to start Monday next. The prosecution, however, declared the delay would be sought "to make certain that the men back of the series scandal were driven out of baseball and into the penitentiary." Judge K. M. Landis, Baseball Commissioner, placed all the indicted players on the ineligible list when he heard of the proposed postponement and said they would remain on there pending the trial. This automatically bars them from playing with any club in organized baseball.

Judge George F. Barrett, American League attorney in the case, said the prosecution had found its evidence was not ready for proper presentation to a jury. New evidence now being gathered would give the State an impregnable case, he said, and might result in a further Grand Jury investigation with indictment of men he declared should have been indicted in the inquiry conducted last fall. To proceed with the case now might make a farce of it and result in guilty men escaping punishment, Judge Barrett declared. Thomas P.

Nash, attorney for Buck Weaver, Swede Risberg, Oscar Felsch and Fred McMullin, and Benedict Short, attorney for Claude Williams, Joe Jackson, and allied with D. P. Cassidy of Detroit in the defense of Eddie Cicotte, said they would fight to the finish any attempt to procure a long delay in the trial. Two weeks or 30 days would be granted as a matter of courtesy, they said. Jackson and Weaver, speaking through their attorneys, said they opposed even a short postponement, as they "wanted to be celared immediately so they could be back in baseball this season." Says Case Is Strong Enough.

Judge Charles A. McDonald, who started the Grand Jury quiz, said that if witnesses repudiated their state. ments there might be some difficulty in obtaining convictions, but that he considered the testimony given the Grand Jury strong enough to convict every guilty person. Concerning the possibility of the indicted players returning to baseball, Harry Grabiner, secretary of the Chicago American League Club, said that "Judge Landis now was the ruler of baseball, and that his rulings would be accepted in all matters." President. Charles A.

Comiskey was in the West and President Johnson of the American League also was away. Attorney Cassiday, who recently came here from Detroit to confer with State's Attorneys over the trial, refused to comment on the postponement announcement, but Attorney Nash said that a "public opinion was swinging toward the indicted men and that the State, knowing it was fighting a losing case, was seeking the easiest way out." "We have petitions signed by 10,000 Chicago fans asking the reinstatement of Buck Weaver," he said. "This the State's is just bunk. They are trying to leave these men with their characters permanently besmirched and without an opportunlity of clearing themselves." The Largest Selection of STETSON HATS In Brooklyn F. H.
