After a conference to-day withDistrict Attorneys from NewYork, Chicago, Cleveland, Buf¬falo and Indianapolis, AttorneyGeneral Daugherty intimatedthat the conspiracy laws might beinvoked to prevent a strike.The government has the inher¬

City's Fee Only NominalBut Firm Headed by Ex-Bar¬
tender Chnrges $200 a
Day, According to RecordHenry H. Curran. Republican-coali¬
tion candidate for Mayor, speaking inLong Is'and City, Elmhurst, Jamaica andBrooklyn last night, turned his attentionto the docks, the open city-owned piers,which, he charged, have been so han¬dled under the Hylan administration asto put hundreds of thousands of dol¬lars in the pockets of Tammany fa¬vorites. One firm, Sabbatino & Co.,has been able in three years to deposit$1,779,018 in Brooklyn banks, appar¬ently the proceeds from the rentals ofpiers over and above the n minal sumapaid the city for the pier space, Mr.Curran charged.Mr. Curran invaded Mayor Hylan's
immediate neighborhood in Brooklyn,making four speeches in that vicinity,and in all these appearances wasvociferously welcomed. He spoke atthe Unity Republican Club, Bushwickand Gates avenues; the 20th AssemblyDistrict Republican Club, 62 WoodbineStreet; the Bushwick Republican Club,425 Wilson Avenue, and the 28th WardRepublican Club, 637 KnickerbockerAvenue.The coalition candidate, in his ad¬
dress at Heitinger's Hall, Seventh Ave¬nue and Broadway, Long Island City,introduced the subject of docks as an¬other example of tho Hylan brokenpromises. Promising in the 1917 cam¬paign that his fight was "to take fromthe hands of monopoly control of ourpublic utilities and administer themfor the profit of all the people," MayorHylan flagrant y broke his word inthis respect, Mr. Curran declared, notonly to the discredit of himself, butof h!s whole administration.
"Dummies" Enriched, He Charges"The docks are one of the first of
our public utilities," said Mr. Curran."They have been in Mr. Hylan's handsduring the greatest boom of ail timein the shipping industry. What hasbeen Mr. Hylan's course and constantpolicy? I will introduce you to twobudding millionaire 'dummies' sprungfrom Mr. Hylan's administration of thedocks, not for the profit of all the peo¬ple, but for the pockets of favored in¬dividual."The speaker traced the career of
Salvatore Sabbatino, of Brooklyn, frombartender to moving picture proprietor,to a partnership with Frank ,1. Hoey,a youth who did odd clerking jobsalong the waterfront under the nameof Sabbatino & Co. This firm got a gripon the open piers, the piers not rentedpermanent y by the city, but held forthe use of fluctuating shipping,accord¬ing to Mr. Curran, and shippers had"to see them" instead of going to theDock Department for wharfage. In¬stead of the city's nominal charges, thespeaker concluded, they were compelledto hand over to Sabbatino & Co. sumsexceeding the city's rates by 350 to 500per cent, and in some instances ashigh as 1,000 per cent."You all know how Mr. Hylan rolls
his tongue around his old favorites.the 'special interests,' " said the can¬didate. "Who are his special interestsnow? Hoey & Sabbatino? Or the menthev split with? Who is going to getthe'$1,779,000? Who gets the money?"
Tourists Lost in FiatbushMr. Curran and his escort got lost in
Flatbush. After leaving Queens hewas to have delivered an address at theChurch of the Evange', Bedford Ave¬nue and Hawthorne Street, Brooklyn.When the party halted at Bedford Ave¬nue and Lincoln R~rd they saw thatthey were at a church, but discoveredit was not the church they were seek¬ing.

Board CallsPublic In toAvert Strike
Chicago Conference IsThrown Open to GiveHearing to Chief Suf-ferers From Walk-Out
17,000 SignalmenRefuse to Go Out
Roads Assert Failure ofTexas Curtain RaiserDooms Revolt to Defeat
Special Dispatch to The TrihvnoCHICAGO, Oct. 24. . The Railroad
Labor Board is inviting the public, forthe first time, to assist in preventinga nation-wide railroad strike next Sun¬day by joining in Wednesday's con¬ference here between 1,400 leaders ofthe unions and heads of the railroads.Officials of the board said there was"great reason to hope" that the strikewould be averted, but that any planfor adjustment of remaining differ¬ences between the roads and their em¬ployees would have to come from eithcithe executives or the workers. Theboard would not seek to impose a set¬tlement, they said.At Wednesday's conference 'every
representative of both sides is expectedto make his position plain. The LaborBoard has engaged the Coliseum Annex, Iwhich seats 2,000. The roads and theunions will be allotted 1,400 seats andthe remainder- will be thrown open tothe public. This is the first time thepublic, which pays all the billa and en¬dures all the discomforts of a strike,has had the opportunity to sit in. Itis believed the conference will last untilnext Sunday, the date set by thebrotherhoods for their general strike.
Union Chairmen IncludedFour hundred general chairmen of
tho unions have been summoned toattend, and these invitations are prac¬tically mandatory. These men occupypositions of influence and power inthis situation, which makes their pres¬ence absolutely necessary. Rail ex¬ecutives are also expected to attend,and there will be no room left for"passing the buck" to absentees oneither side.
Additional complications for thebrotherhoods arose to-day when thf>17,000 members of the signal men'sunion refused to join in the strike.They will remain at their posts, butwill refuse to be shifted to any otherduty to fill vacancies left by strikers.This cuts the number of men author¬ized to strike to 475,000. !Officers of the railroad telegraphers'union denied rumors that they werenear a break with the brotherhoods.President Manion said some locals inhis organization might continue towork, but he believed the large ma¬jority of the telegraphers would walkout with the brotherhoods. Thiswould seriously interfere with themovement of trains, even though themil executives were able to man all thetrains.
It was learned that the brotherhoodsand the switchmen's union have re¬peated their warning to the LaborBoard that only a "satisfactory settle¬ment" can prevent the strike.
Texas Strike a BarometerRail officials say the strike has been
broken before it starts. Thep pointto the situation on the Internationaland Great Northern, on which thetrainmen struck last Saturday. Pas¬senger trains are operating as usualand freight service rapidly is beingrestored to normal. No effort to pre¬vent the operation of trains is beingmade by the union.
Conditions on the Texas road are/looked upon as a barometer, indicatingwhat would happen on the larger roadsif the "Big Five" persist in going aheadwith the strike. Dispatches fromHouston say the officials of the Inter¬national and Great Northern have re¬ceived enough applications from menwho desire to work to fill every posi¬tion on the line several times over.
Executives of roads entering Chicagoto-day published advertisements formen to fill all positions that will bemade vacant in the event the strikegoes ahead. It is said they have re¬ceived a flood of answers and will ex¬perience no difficulty in finding enoughmen and a long waiting list.
Hope for "Runaway" StrikesDispatches from Cleveland say re¬
ports are current there that the broth-erhoods are pinning hope for a trans¬portation tie-up on the chance of "run¬away" strikes by the army of workersconstituting the ten small unions whoseofllccrs have decreed that they will notjoin the walk-out.
It is borne in mind that virtually allthe unions voted overwhelmingly infavor of a strike, but their officers vetoedthe vote, as they are empowered to do.Presumably the brotherhoods are count-ing upon this heavy vote as an indica-

Beer, Wine and[iquorLegalizedFor Medical IJseSecretary Mellon Issues Reg¬
ulations teased on Rul¬ing That Was Made byAttorney General Palmer;
Protest Raised by DrysExplanation Made Delay on
Pending Measure in Con¬gress Forced This StepFrom The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Oct. 24..Secretaryof the Treasury Mellon late to-daysigned the much-discussed beer regula¬tions and they were made public byCommissioner of Internal RevenueBlair. They cover the manufacture andsale of intoxicating malt liquors formedicinal purpose3 and the issue ofprescriptions therefor.The regulations have been issued
against the wishes of the drys, whowere much surprised. When it becameknown this afternoon^ that the TreasuryDepartment had determined no longerto withhold them there was sharp pro¬test and criticism anrong dry leadersin Congress.The regulations are based on the
ruling made in the closing days of thelast Administration by the Departmentof Justice, headed at that time by A.Mitchell Palmer, that the Volstead lawdid not prohibit beer as a medicine.Since that timo the Treasury Depart¬ment has been under pressure to issueregulations based on this interpreta¬tion of the law, which, it is generallyconceded, is correct. At the behest ofthe dry foi-ces in Congress and out ofit,"however, the regulations, thoughprepared months ago, have been heldback.
Latterly. Secretary Mellon has beenunder stronger pressure than ever toissue the regulations, and as it is by nomeans, clear when the anti-beer bill, or"Willis-Campbell bill, will be. enacted,he had little or no excuse for not do¬ing so.The regulations technically are ineffect now. They will be promulgatedto Federal prohibition directors of the
states and other officials concernedimmedii'.tely. '
Wayne B. Wheeler, general counselof the Anti-Saloon League, predictedthat brewers would be able to complywith all formalities and engage inbusiness upder the regulations for onlyabout a week before the new btermeasure would be enacted, and saidthat they would be able to sell only ina few states, as in many states thestate law would shut them out.He held the issuance or the regula¬tions was less defensible because it
came at the eleventh hour; that thebeer would be used to supply boot¬leggers, and that it was poor politics,because it would displease the drysand in the end disappoint the brewers.
Mr. Mellon Explain.In announcing that he had signedthe beer regulations, Secretary Mellon
said:"The issuance of the beer regula¬tions was delayed originally because
it seemed probable that legislationwould be enacted whereby the actionof the department would be of no prac¬tical advantage to those interested, andthis view appeared to be acquiesced inby them, since there was at that timeno urgent demand for the issuance ofthe regulations. However, for sometime it has been strongly urged bythose interested that this departmenthad no right longer to withhold theregulations, and that in so doing thedepartment is denying to those in¬terested their clear legal right andthereby imposing serious loss uponthem. The legal rights of the partiesconcerned being plain, the department

Britain Will Back U. S. in AnyWar, Northcliffe Warns Japan
LONDON, Oct. 24..In the event ofa clash at arms on the Pacific or else-where involving the United StatesGreat Britain without question wouldsupport the United States, according tothe personal opinion voiced by LordNorthcliffe in an interview Saturdaywith Japanese newspaper men whocame to Manila from Japan for the pur-
j pose of talking with him, says a dis-patch to "The Times" from Manila.
Replying to direct questions, LordNorthcliffe declared it was his beliefthat should such a clash occur the wholefamily of British nations would standbeside America, júst as the Americanpeople had stood beside the British inthe still smoldering conflagration of¡Europe. Lord Northcliffe added thatit seemed inconceivable that any con¬tingency might arise seriously tomenace "the invisible but impregnablebonds that make the English-speakingpeoples one in the ultimate and su-preme issues of humanity."With reference to the renewal of the
Anglo-Japanese alliance, Lord North¬cliffe said he believed he knew thegeneral sentiment of the Pritish peo¬ple, but that he was not ready to makeany definite statement at present. Be
suggested that the Japanese newspaper !men should advise their representa¬tives to take up this question with theJapanese delegates to the Washingtonconference."Lord Northcliffe," the dispatch savs,"has 'repeatedly commented on the
amazing generosity of the UnitedStates in the handling of the Philn-pine problem and the treatment of thoFilipino people. He has been deeplyimpressed wi^h the wonderful schoolsystem established by the Americans,and has declared there is none betteranywhere in the world. He franklyasked various Filipino statesmen andofficials how the Philippines would orcould carry on if America should getout Without exception, the questionremained unanswered, except by puz¬zled silence. He to'.d them they al-ready had all the essentials of inde-pendepee, plus immunity from intorna-tional entanglements, bestowed by agreat and beneficent power, through¡American world prestige.and militarypower. fc"Moreover, he said, President IJar-ding had sent to them General Leonard
Wood, who not only was a great Ameri-can but a great international figure,r.'ho, Lord Cromer years a^o said, prob-ably was the most robust and able co-lonial administrator of modern times."
Bandits StageMail Hold-UpIn Broadway
Trio in Auto Halt TruckNear Criminal CourtsBuilding; Flee WithFour Registered Sacks
Driver Stopped onHis Way to Train
RobberyTakes Place SoonAfter Chauffeur Leavesthe City Hall PostofficeThree armed bandits intercepted a
united States mail truck carryingseventeen pouches of mail, at Broadwayand Leonard Street last night, near theCriminal Courts Building, compelledthe driver to steer into Leonard Street,and escaped with \four pouches ofregistered mail. The pouches are saidto have contained bank mail. Thewagon was bound for the PennsylvaniaStation.
It was at first reported that the bagscontained $1,000,000. On investigation;it was found that this report was basedon a conversation between the driverof the truck and the helper who loadedthe automobile at the Citv Hall station.As the helper tossed one of the bags
which was stolen into the machine, heshouted to the driver, "Here's a milliondollars for you." As a matter of factit has not yet been established whatthe pouches contained.Frank Havanck, chauffeur of the mail
truck, a Ford machine carrying post-office No. 2306, left City Hall Post-office soon after 10 o'clock and startedup Broadway under orders to make amail train departing at 10:40. Afterhe had progressed a few blocks north-ward he observed a touring car withtwo men and a driver, trailing him.He thought nothing of this until, just ibefore he reached Leonard Street, thetouring car drew alongside and twoyoung men, wearing caps with longpeaks, leveled revolvers at his head.
"Drive down Leonard Street or dieright where you are," on£ of the menshouted. !
Compelled to SwerveAccording to Havanck, the touring
car cut in ahead of hiin, so that hewas compelled to swerve or crash intoit. When he slowed down one of thebandits jumped for the running board,placed a revolver at his head and com¬pelled him to drive into LeonardStreet. There the other two men alsoaimed revolvers and demanded thathe open the door of the truck. Undercompulsion he complied. The banditsselected four bags of registered mail,tossed it into their car and drove awayrapidly.Havunck drove to the Beach Street
station, where he told his story toDetective Sergeant Rocco. Notificationwas at once telephoned the postoliiceinspectors' department and detectiveswere dispatched from Police Headquar¬ters in an effort to pick up the trailof the robbers. Havanck was ques¬tioned by Detective Sergeant Rocco,who later turned him over to the post-office inspectors. His description of,the bandits is declared to have beendetailed. .The men were not masked,Havanck asserted the men who heldhim up were young.he thinks betweentwenty and twenty-five years old. Theman at the touring car wheel wore aleather driver's coat and a long-peakedcap pulled far down over his eyes.The other two bandits wore darkclothes, Havanck said, and caps ofmixed material, also with long peaks.He thought one of the men had aslight mustache, but said two of themwere smooth shaven.
In Service Three YearsHavanck told postoffice inspectorahe tried to make out the number ofthe robbers' car, but could only dis¬tinguish the numbers 200. There werethree other numbers he could not dis¬tinguish. Being an experienced chauf¬feur, familiar with makes of automo¬biles, his statement that he identifiedthe make of the bandits's machine hasconsiderable value.Havanck lives at 369 Webster Ave¬
nue, Long Island City, and is married.Ho has been employed as a truckdriver in the postotfice for three yearsand is given a gefi reputation. Thehighway robbery of last night is thefirst experienced by the New Yorkpostoffice for more than fifteen years.Leonard Street at the point where therobbery took place is ill lighted andvirtually deserted at night. Havancktold the police there were only threepersons in sight. One of these, a boyabout fourteen, paused as the 'banditsordered Havanck to throw up his hands.One bandit ordered the boy to "be onhis way." A woman crossed the streetjust as the four bags of mail werebeing transferred from truck to tour¬ing car. She paid no attention to whatwas happening.

Empress Zita's Jealousy of Paula Horthy, Aspirantfor Marriage Into Royal House, Inspired Ex-Ruler; Sacharoff, King Maker, Supplied Funds
* By Joseph ShaplenBy Wireless to llie Tribune
Copyright, 1921, New York Tribune Inc.BERLIN, Oct. 24..Behind the latest
attempt of former Emperor Charles toregain the Hungarian throne therestands the Bulgarian, Basil Sacharon",who made a fortune in Paris recentlyand whose money and wits are regardedin well informed circles in Berlin andVienna as responsible for Constantine'sreturn to Athens. Sacharoff now hasundertaken to repeat the performancein Charles's behalf.¦But while Sacharoff is the financier
of the enterprise, the Empress Zita isthe chief spirit behind it. In well in-formed diplomatic circles here it is as-serted that Zita has been very muchprovoked at Charles because of whatshe "r%arded as his muffing of theSteinamanger attempt at the throne lastMarch, and decided this time to accom-pany him on his airplane flight into
Hungary and take charge of the showherself.The struggle between Charles and
Admiral Horthy, the Regent, it islearned, is really a conflict betweenEmpress Zita and Horthy's daughter,Paula, who cherishes an ambition tomarry a certairt member of the Haps-burg house, who afterward, under herfather's protection, would be electee";King of Hungary.
It was after learning of the inten¬tions of Paula and her father, it issaid, that Zita decided to tarry nolonger; and, taking friend husbandwith her, she undertook the dangerousflight across the mountainous terrainto Hungary in a desperate attempt tocircumvent their plan.Whatever the outcome of the coup.

¡De Valera Crisis Passes_
¡Premier Notifies CommonsRequest for Independence JWill Not Re ConsideredLONDON, Oct. 24 (By The Associated
Press)..The first real crisis in theIrish conference, caused by Eamon deValera's assertion of Ireland's inde¬pendence in his message to Pope Bene¬dict last week, is not healed, but thereare hopes, if not prospects, that it maybe smoothed over or compromised.The representatives of the British
