Discomfort Among Surface Railroad
Men to Be Considered.
~ New York, July 10.-The general execu-
tive board of the knights of Labor came
to this city yesterday and established
headquarters at the Broadway Central Ho-
tel, where it will be in session until to-
morrow afternoon or evening. The prin-
cipal business before the board is the con-
sideration of the alleged dissatisfaction
among the surface railroad men. The gen.
eral executive board consists of John N.
Parsons, General Master Workman; John
Hayes General s0secretary Treasurer,
Washington; j.. Chamberlain, Pueblo.
Col; Andrew W. Best, Brooklyn; ]. D.
Shoufaber, Baltimore, and j. S. Fitzpat-
rick, Montreal.
1t was reported that committee of en-
ployes of the Metropolitan Street Rail-
way Company appointed to see President
Vreeland, of the company, had notified Mr..
Vreeland that it will call upon him this
afternoon. No action will be taken by the
general executive board until this COM
mittee makes its report. General Master
Workman Parsons said yesterday tnat so
far as Brooklyn was concerned the trouble
was over. 1.-THE matter has been grossly
misrepresented,' he said.
There is no reason to anticipate any
trouble in Brooklyn. That matter is clos
ed. Regarding New York. if the demands
of the men are refused we will start a
public agitation which will, we believe,
gain the men all that they want. 1t may
end in an agitation for Scent carfare."

the rules of the National League a team
that fails to report according to the sched-

feiture of the game. Under this rule it
would seem that if the Cleveland Club
remained here to await the coming of the
clubs that decline to come again, 1t would
be easy to not only collect 1000 game,
but to win the championship without ever
appearing on the field again.
