The Brotherhood Chiefs Summoned to
va hinxton by the Employer.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. l9.-The
committee of employees of the Southern
Railway Company, which has been in
session In Washington for nearly week,
has been unable TO come 10 an agreement
with representatives of the railway COM
pany. The company. through It's third
yice-president Mr.. Baldwin, made very
full and frank statement of the affairs OF
the company. and showed why IL was not
advisable that there should be a general
increase in the wages, as demanded by
the employees Since receiving the state
ment. the employees committee has been
in secret session. and has finally con-
cluded not 10 accept the schedule proposFu
by Mr.. Baldwin, and the grand chieis OF
the various trainmen's brotherhoods nave
been summoned to this city 10 assist IL
possible, in arriving at satisfactory ar
rangement of the difficulty Those into
whose hands the matter now passes are
l.. NJ. Arthur. of Cleveland, O., Brahu
chief Of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers: T.. f.. Clark, of Cedar Rapids,
Ia. grand chief OF the Order of Railway
Conductors; Wilkinson, grand chief oil the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, ana
+. +. Sargent, grand chief of the Broth
erhood of Railway Ffremen.
1t is not yet known certainly when the
grand chiefs will arrive, but they are
expected tomorrow morning. Ii was
learned to-day that Chief Arthur, of the
Brotherhood of Engineers, is not in Cleve-
land at present, and it is not expected
he will be able TO attend the conference
here. Chief Sargent. of the firemen, was
at his home in Terre Haute. Ind, when
the committee notified him TO come. ana
he is probably on his way now Chief
Clark, OF the order of Railway Conduc-
tors. will have to come all the way from
Cedar Rapids, Ia, and Will not arrive
until some time tomorrow.
In the meantime nothing can be done
toward solving the knotty problem, and
the members of the committee are simply
waiting. 1t was stated to-day that Vice
President Baldwin had gone South, but
whether on business connected with the
present agitation concerning wages, is
not known.
