IN UNION THERE Is STRENGTH
RumOred Consolidation of Canadian and
American Railroad Employees.


American Railroad Employees.
MoSTREAL. March l7.-Wh hat is regarded
as the initial move on the part of the
various associations of railway conductors,
brakemen, baggagemeu, and possibly fire
men, throughout America towards con-
serted plan to compel the railways TO
abolish the system of wages by a gradual
scale has been made by the employees of the
Grand Trunk. The general belief among
railway officials is that these organiza-
TONS have agreed TO demand an increase
VI pay from all roads, and, in the event of
failure, to cause a general strike previous
10 the opening of the Worlds Fair next
year The demand made on the Grand
Trunk is that eight hours shall constitute
3 days work. for which every conductor
shall be paid 50 per day and every train
man sl75 per day. In other words. they
ask on an average increases of from 10 TO
so per cent. The company offered an in
crease. but not on the lines proposed, and
the trainmen summoned the heads Of their
respective orders to compromise. The
certificates Of the different organizations
have arrived and are in conference with
the Grand Trunk officials Vice Presi-
dent Shaughnessy of the Canadian Pa
cific states that the discharge of western
trainmen on his road has nothing TO do
with the quarrel of the employees, and the
company had no intention Of interfering
with these organizations.

Mrs. Jane G.Austin deserves the graft
tude OF all New Englanders, at least, for
giving us historical romano s OF the Ply
mouth Colony. There are four volumes,
each complete in ITSELF Betty Alden being
the second in the series. (Houghton Milf
fin & Co, Sl.25.) Betty is the daughter OF
John Alden and priscilla, the Puritan
maiden, WHOSE fame Longfellow has made
worldwide. Mrs. Austin has evidently
spared no pains in research, and the facts
are well chosen, to bring out the charac-
teristics OF many familiar names in history
as well as &c portray the manners, customs
and condition Of affairs IN the colony at
that time. The conversations are bright
and quaint and as a story, quite apart from
its historical value, it is one OF mnch more
than common interest The binding is
substantial as well as pleasing and the
book should find place in ali libraries,
in those connected with public
schools.
