Employees of Southern Railroad Consult

Employees of Southern Railroad Consult
ing Over Their Grievances.
WAsHrNGToN, Dec. 14.-Sixty delegates
representing the conductors, engineers
and hremen Of the Southern railway
system have been in secret conference
in this city for three days and strike
which may tie up the whole system will
probably be the result of the meeting
Their grievance is that the Southern re-
fuses to enter into the same contracts
with them which they had with the
Richmond & Danville corporation.
When the Richmond & Danville and a
number of other companies were cOnsol-
dated into the Southern railway early
in the present year, the contracts the
men had with the Richmond g. Danville
lapsed and they have been unable to re
new them with the new corporation
Recently the railway has made heavy
cut in the wages of it's men. This, how
ever, cuts no figure in the present diff
Guilty, which arises entirely from the re-
fusal of the road to make any contracts
whatever with the men.
The delegates from the brotherhood
concerned met here five days ago and
have been in secret conference ever
since. Today a committee allied on
General Manager Green and General
Passenger Agent c. w. Baldwin, the rep
resentatives Of the road here, but these
officials absolutely refused to accede to
their demands. The delegates are al
most unanimous in their desire to strike,
but cannot do so without the authority
Of the heads of the national
brotherhoods with which they are ahili-
ated. These officers have been tels-
graphed for and are expected by Satur-
day, when it is believed a strike will be
ordered by the early part of next week
The Southern railway, with its connec-
tions. extends from Washington to the
Gulf of Mexico, and employs thousands
of men. A strike on it would seriously
affect every business interest in the east
ern states of the south.

paupers, and mmking the distress

and orphans. II has made and is
haunting noble IN ,thars and chill

The church TOO, is suffering and
the worlds Redeemer is being re-
tarded by the baneful effects Of al
coholic drinks. Thousands Of
precious souls are being lost to the
church, lost to the world, lost to
home circle, lost to virtue, and lost
to all that is pure, lovely and good
by the murderous hand Of intern
perance. 1t has been estimated
that l 100000 Of human beings die
annually from the effects of strong
drink.
