LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN

RAILWAY.
Yesterday afternoon a deputation from the engine.
drivers late in the employ of the London and North-
Western Railway had an interview with the Members
guaranteed, as stated by Mr.
North-Western Company;
for Marylebone, Lord Dudley Stuart and Sir B. Hall, on
the subject of the recent dispute and their secession from
the conapsny's service, and the safety of the public
under existing circumstances.
The deputation were very courteously received by the
Hon. Members, and proceeded to state that their object
was to show a substantial reason why the Government
existingpp o
appoint a
in order to see
circceummeistiatnteceesetfhiengsatifierty;
if

Glyn, the Chairman of the
whether it was true that the engines
undern to
a oa the lin© were
placed under the control of persons selected from her
had been
Majesty's dockyards; whether the police
employed to take the place of porters
• l'• and
circular;Placed on the
trains in accordance with Captain Huts i s
•
also that they would be pleased to inquire of Mr. Glyn
whether there is or is not any truth in
the statement
made at the meetings of the enginemen relative to
accidents and delays on the line during the past
'
week. The deputation proceeded to state that they were
prepared to vouch for the statements which had already
appeared in the public press, and they added that on that
morning the line had been blocked by three trains com-
ing in all at the same time, and that the train which
ought to have arrived at Euston station at 10 o'clock
from Peterborough did not arrive until 20 minute a after
11, or 1 hour and 20 minutes behind time.
Lord DUDLEY STUART informed the deputation that
at the morning sitting of the House of Commons that
day, Mr. Glyn, in answer to a question put by Mr.
Thornely, had stated that an attempt had been made
by the Engine-drivera' Clubs to induce the men from
Rugby to Carlisle also to resign, but that it had failed,
and also that a great number of the men who on the
southern division, of the line had sent in their notices
had withdrawn them, and had resolved to stay in the
company's service.
Mr. BRowN, the chairman of the body, begged to give
the latter statement the most explicit and emphatic con-
tradiction, and as a proof he begged to inform the Noble
Lord and the Hon. Baronet that on that morning the
whole of the men at Camden, Wolverton. Northampton,
Rugby, and Birmingham, had taken in their coats and
watches belonging to the company, and had received
their back week's salary, which it was the custom of the
company always to keep in hand.
After a full explanation of tl • •
Dar grievances, in the
course of which Lord Dudley Stuart d exprehsehis con-
viction if the statements of the dep •
utation were Correct,
they had been most unjustly used,
Sir BENJAMIN HALL suggested that the engine•drivers
should confine their statements to matters of fact ; that
they should make out a statement in writing of the
lelays which had taken place on the arrival of trains at
Euston-square and other places, during the past week,
old place it in the hands of his Noble Colleague, for
the purpose of inquiring whether such statements were
founded in fact or nut, and any other statement of Mr.
Glyn's which they considered they were in a position to
refute. It would then, in the event of the answers not
being satisfactory, be competent for a Member of the
House to move for a Committee of Inquiry as to the
state of the line, and the present capabilities for insuring
the safety of the public.
Lord DUDLEY STUART expressed his concurrence in
this suggestion, and said he would give Mr. Glyn due
notice of his intention to put the questions.
The deputation then withdrew, and subsequently
waited on Mr. B. Osborne, M.P., Mr. Ilutne, M.P., and
other Members of Parliament on the same subject.

made every night by the Mount's Bay boats. The fish
are approaching the shores from a S.S.W. direction, and
are how about two miles off the shore.—cornwall Gazette.
