representatives of the employees OF the
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul rail-
way have returned from Milwaukee,
where they interviewed President Ros-

the reduction means to the road at this

quested the representatives of the en-
ployes to secure general conference OF
the various labor organizations into
which they are divided, with view to
devising an equitable proposal for the
settlement of the matter. which would
be fair and satisfactory to the employees
and company alike. 1t is probable thai
