A CONFERENCE
Between the Grievance Committee of the
Conductors and tho Gould aIannEers.

Between the Grievance Committee of the
Conductors and tho Gould nauagers.
/ ST. LOUIS, March 1s.-The Grievance
Committee Of the Brotherhood OF Rail.
road Conductors, which has been in the
city for two days, had o conference with
the officials Of the Gould system to-day.
The nature OF the grievance Is not exact
ly known and both sides refuse to talk
except to say that there would be no
difficulty in settling amicably all ques.
lions OF dispute. There are rumors,
however, that the disagreement between
the railroad officials and the Brother.
hood is OF a serious nature, and that the
leaders will endeavor to secure the aid Of
the locomotive engineers and firemep In
bringing pressure upon the railroad COM
pany.
Aconductor, who is not member Of
the grievance committee, said that the
trouble was caused by the Spy system.
"No conductor" he said, "objects to
being watched II 1t is done in fair man
ner and fair hearing is given him be-
fore he is discharged for dishonesty.
But the present epy system is abomin-
able. The spoilers did not work to dis
cover whether q man is honest, but their
sole object is 10 make CAGE against him.
To illustrate; A man boarded train at
q way station and when asked for his
ticket, he said after a long search that
be was unable to find It and had no
money to pay his fare. The conductor
was about to put him of when he made
q piteous appeal, saying that his wife
was dying and he was hurrying to her
bedside.
The conductor Yielded, and at the end
oil the week was discharged. The grief
stricken husband was aspotter. Such
cases as these We can guard against, but
1t Is false reports that we fear. It is very
easy for q spotter to ruin q man, and Of
course, II they can find nothing to re.
port, they will make talss ehsfgea, or
else lose their positions.
