Charleston, w. Va, March THE night

to the low temperature made the situa-
ton a gloomy one. Many business men
were compelled to use boats to seek pro-
visions and fuel Even the governor was
forced to use a boat to go from the eXecu
tive mansion to the state house. The loss
to timbermen up Elk river will be heavy.

Adjustment Reached.

The dispatches sent out from Wash
ington vary as to the outcome of
Mondays conference in regard to the
arsenal trouble. Only meagre details
are obtainable. The Chicago Tribune's
correspondent says that Il final adj
justment satisfactory to all concerned
will he arrived at ut a second confer
ence to be held today, while the Times
Herald correspondent has the follow
ing to say:
IAN adjustment was reached Mon
day of the grievances presented by the
machinists employed at the govern
ment arsenal ut Rock Island, ILL.,, the
department holding that petitions
may be presented by the men to their
commandant individually or by some
one or more such employees who may
be selected to represent them, but not
by representations other than from
the men themselves.
This decision is in line with the
rules and regulations of the war de-
partment, and was made known at a
hearing in the case Monday, ut which
Secretary Alger, Assistant Secretary
Meiklejohn, Representative Prince, of
Illinois. and Lane, of Iowa. Mr.. Schil-
linger, one of the arsenal employees,
and Mr.. . Council, representing the
national organization of machinists,
were present. The decision has been
transmitted by Maj. Blunt. command
ant at Rock Island.
The question is an important one,
relating TO the procedure of present
ing grievances of employees. The wage
cutting, largely on account of which
$50 OF the Rock Island machinists
went out about two months ago, was
not directly considered. Requests are
often made AZ government works by
the employees to have their grievances
presented by committees constituted
of those who are not employees and
who represent national labor organi
cations. These requests the depart
ment finds it impracticable to concede,
holding that all complaints must come
directly from the men,"
