Machinists' Hours Settled.

Among the men who had q prOmi-
nent part in the accomplishment of
the recent understanding which will
put an end to strikes among machin-
lists was p. j. Conlon Of this city. Mr..
Conlon returned yesterday from Wash
ington, where he met the three other
members of the general board of
trustees of the International Associa-
ton of Mschinists in their conference
with the administrative council Of the
National Metal Trades association
He said the trustees had no difficulty
In reaching the agreement.
1.-The question of reduction of hours
had been settled already" he said, "at
the meeting held last May. The only
question which we had to deal with
was the question of wages. We
wanted to get ten hours pay for nine
hours work. Some of the large firms
In st. LOUIS aud Denver in the west
and others in the east had given no.
tice that they would reduce the wages
with the reduction of hours. The
agreement made last May provided
that all such questions should be set
tied by arbitration and that pending
such arbitration no strike or lockout
should occur. The difficulty which
arose when the dispute of wages came
up was that the manner of arbitration
was not provided. At the meeting
last Tuesday, the following methods
we're adopted:
When dispute shall arise between
sn employer aud his employe or en-
ployes, every reasonable effert shall be
made BY the said parties to effect q
sstlsfactory adjustment of the diff
Guilty; and in case such difficulty can
not be settled between the employer
and his emplOye OF employees, it shall
be referred, on the part of the member
of the National Metal Trades associa-
tion, to the chairman of the district in
which he Is located; and by the en-
pl0ye or employees to such representa-
tive as he or they may select, who shall
BY all means in his or their power Gu
desvor to adjust the difficulty to the
satisfaction of both parties.
Should this committee fail to make
such adjustment, then either party
shall have the right to ask for con-
ference between the presidents of the
two associations, OF their representa-
tivss. In the advent of their being
unable to adjust the differences salts
fact0rily, then 1t shall be referred to
arbitration, as provided in the agree
ment Of May IS. 1900 The findings of
this arbitration, by majority vote,
shall be considered as final as regards
the case at issue.
Pending adjudication by arbitration
there shall be no cessation of work at
the instance of either party to the
dispute"
Tho other members of the board Of
trustees who met with Mr.. Conlon
were: Arthur w. Holmes, of Toronto,
Cansda; John j. Connolly, of Boston,
and Hugh Dorsn, of Chicago. MIR.
Conlon was absent from the city two
weeks. During the past week he has
been visiting some Of the larger cities
Of the west, explaining to the ma
chinists' organizations in those centers
the agreement Just effected. The cities
he stopped at we're Cleveland, Cincin-

son and out OF season, at everything or
at nothing as the case may be. The
term kicker scarcely needs definition.
We know exactly what it means, as
we'll as we know the chronic fault.fnder
it designates.
THE RISE OF THE KICKER.
Any one who cares to trace the rise Of
the kicker will find that he keeps pace
with the prevalent American disease,
dyspepsia. All kickers may not be
dyspeptics, but all dyspeptics are surely
kickers. They are everlasting fault
finders. Nothing goes right for them
in the family or in business. There is
always dead ay in their ointment 1t
is miserable condition for the dyspep-
tic and his friends. He really can't help
himself. His nerves are strained to the
limit Of endurance. His ears are like
megaphones magnifying every little
sound to the shock Of thunder. His
eyes lose sense of perspective and he
sees mole-hills as mountains. He IS
obstinate; and all these things are only
symptoms Of the disease which is starv.
ing and weakening the entire nervous
system and reaching out toward heart,
liver, lungs, kidneys and other organs.
WHAT CAN BE DONE FOR HIM?
What can be done for the victim of
dyspepsia
He can be cured. He can be given
new start in life. He can be made the
anliable, companionable man he was of
old. He can once more eat with APP
petite and enioyment. work with energy.
and sleep the night through in sound,
dreamless slumber.
This is not mere empty claim un.
supported by facts. The statement that
the dyspeptic can be cured is made on
the authority of thousands of men and
women. WIS have been entirely cured
