six Employees OF the Electric Motor Line
Discharged.

Yesterday morning when the day and
night forces employed at the electric
motor barn on Forty-second street met
TO change for the day, at seven O'CLOCK,
six OF the men received notice from
Superintendent Harrington statlng that
their services were no longer required
The men who were discharged were
James Black master machinist, John
Rafferty, night foreman, Charles Cullen
Lawrence Marshall, John Burke, Peter
Rafferty, and Henry Pepe. Several OF
these men have been In the employ oi
the company for a number OF years,
and one al least for about fifteen years.
Three OF the men were members OF the
Electric Railway Employees Union.
OThe report was circulated among the
men that they were removed 10 give
places 10 men from Atlantic CITY, y.
j., from which city the superintendent
aud several officials Of the road came.
The men claimed that they could not
account for the action OF the company
atd that no cause was assigned Tor their
discharge. Superintendent HarrinK-
ton. however, denies that the men were
discharged that he might hll Their
places with men from Atlantic city. He
stated that the force would be reduced
on account Of the better facilities Tor
doing the work az the new barn, which
has Just been completed, and occupied
for the fret time yesterday. One new
man was hired, foreman, from Pitts
burg. who was secured because OF his
knowledge OF the construction OF cars,
aud improved machinery.
The Road Committee OF the Union
called upon Superintendent harrington
yesterday morning, and arranged Tor a
conference, which took place yesterday
afternoon at three o'clock. The result
OF the meeting could not be ascertained,
as the members Of the Road Committee
agreed not to divulge the proceedings
until after the meeting OF the Union,
which was called for last night. The
result was probably unsatisfactory, as
the meeting would not have been called
II the matter could be adjusted by the
Committee. The Union met last night
at midnight and at an early hour this
morning is still in session.
