NO STRIKE
Central Management and Men
Considering Matters.
HARMONIOUS ACTION
The Probable Result of the
Conference at St. Albans.

st. Adams, Oct. 26.-MeSsrs. Clark
and Morrissey, of the Conductors and
Trainmen s Union, had a long confer
ence with the management of the
Central Vermont road in st. AlbanS
yesterday. The conference was mainly
devoted to a general discussion of
grievances of the men in the train
department. 1t is impossible to learn
of the details of the interview as the
committeeman are not giving out
any information. 1t is believed how
ever, that the general attitude of the
management was conciliatory. Moth
ing has occurred to change the sitla-
tiOn.
The reports sent out from Mont
pelier, Burlington and Battleboro
are unfounded as the men here all
expect an amicable settlement of the
points at issue. This is as much for
the interest of the Central as for
those of the men. A few hot heads
would like strike unless their extreme
demands are granted, but the great
majority of the men believe the new
management is disposed to treat them
fairly.

Large Attendance and Great Interest
Showed at Woodstock.

Woodstock, oct. 26. - Yesterday
was great day with the Endeavorers,
and the meetings were full of interest
and largely attended. The feature of
the day was the able address of Mrs.
Mary Clement Leavitt, president Of
the Worlds W. G. Il. U., who spoke
fin favor of keeping and civilizing
the Philippine islands. "Ought we
to gain new territories outside of our
own land? Emphatically, yes! But
we ought not to rule them in a des-
potic way--it is only Gods right to
rule men--nOt mans, and one nation
hao no legal right to tyrannize over a
brother nation. If we had never an
neXed California to the Union how
should we have gotten through sue
cessfully with our war in the south?
1t was the gold of California that
helped our side-it was the wealth Of
the West that carried it through with
success and won the emancipation of
the slaves. Adopt the Philippines"
said the speaker, "make them your
friends and God will bless our new and
rich possessions. "
Last evening Rev. Addison p. Eos
ter, secretary Of the American Sum
day school association, spoke on "The
Forward Movement in Missions. -
Other interesting addresses were
made. A reception was held after
the meeting at the Woodstock Inn
that was much enjoyed by all pres
ent.
