Assistant Grand Chief Youngson, is a
man of middle age, with general appear
ance of a prosperous and successful busi-
ness man, rather than what he is, noted
lea der of great labor organization, and
| the trusted lieutenant and assistant of
Chief Arthur. He is a man of very pleas
| ing address, and made good impression
| on the members of the Brotherhood who
met him yesterday. He came here from
| Cleveland to make an official visitation
to the two New England divisions above
named, but in reality he met and con-
extended interests of the Brotherhood
throughout New England. He will go
directly home. He said last evening that
the relations between the Brotherhood
and the railroads are very pleasant at this
time, and he does not anticipate any trouble
| in the immediate future. Grand Chief
Arthur is at present in Scotland, but will
make the tour of Europe before his return
| to this country.
