HAVE "A GRIEVANCE.
Some Boston s. Maine Trainmen Want a
New Wages Schedule.

Springfield, Mass, May IA meet
ing of trainmen of the Connecticut river
division of the Boston & Maine road, was
held infthis city today, at which the
wages now paid the employees of the sys-
tenn were discussed. About 1875 trainmen
were present, including engineers. brake
men, baggage men, conductors and fire.
men. Dissatisfaction exists among the
employees because the wages are not regu-
lated by the schedule as on the other
systems of the road, and because the
daily payment is not according to the
number of hours of work. A commit
tee of 16 was chosen to present these
grievances to Superintendent Howard
and the officials of the road at Boston.
The wage schedule desired by the en-
ployes is that paid the employees on the
southern division of the road. This
schedule averages somewhat higher
than the wages now received by the
men.
