The running of Sunday passenger

Ministers union of EIoboken, which has
in circulation a petition against sun
day trains. The petition says, among
other things:
I'VE have learned that you are ar
ranging for n system of Sabbath dav
passenger trains with deepest regret.
We are assured that we represent by
far the majority of your patrons in
deplorng this action. We have regard
ed your company as deserving of high
est praise in your strict observance of
the Lords day as far as practicable.
and have seen a close relation between
your phenomenal success and the high
moral character you have maintained.
We look with grave apprehension both
for yourselves and others in what we
regard as a Gesecration of the holy
Sabbath.
I'VE plead for your employees who
need and desire the day of rest, that
they may be fitted to do more and bet

the travelling public, and the property
interest of the company. 1t is the con-
viction of your petitioners that no spe-
cial inconvenience has been occasioned
from your former plan. The increased

sent. The purpose of the meeting was
to consider plans of organization.
Little else than the simple discussion
of ways and means was done, and

days. The movement has been under
way for several weeks and it is in
tended to form union to be affiliated
with the American Federation of La

cess over 1000 men will be affected and
it would be the largest body of or-
