a view to adjusting the trouble between the
employees and the Wabash Company. The
conference lasted nearly two hours. After
the agreement recently made between the
employees and Talmage had been fully dis
cussed by both sides. Talmage said no dis
charge of members of the Knights of Labor
employed on the Wabash had been made
with his knowledge or consent. If any such
discharges had been made it did not meet
his approval. After some further discussion
ex- Mayor Powderly asked that all discharged
Knights of Labor be reinstated. His request
called forth another discussion, which ter
minated by the members of the Gould COM
mittee asking time to consider the matter.
The knights of Labor committee then with

Gould committee will not be made for sew
