CHICAGO, Dcc. T--Another order has
been issued by William Kline, superin-
tendent Of telegraphs Of the Lake Shore
and Michigan Southern railways. request
ing the members of tho order OF railway
telegraphers in the employ OF the company
TO withdraw from the order or resign their
positions. The reason assigned for this
demand is said to be the opposition Of the
brotherhood to taking young men into
their offices as apprentices and teaching
them the business. This, il is said, tho
superintendent believes detrimental to the
Interests OF the company. The first order
Of this kind was issued last August by
superintendent Kline, when he sent a per
sonal letter to all the telegraphers ia the
employ of the company asking them to
Withdraw from the order and also re-

answer the letter and give the reason for
not desiring to comply with the request.
