Conferences took place early yesterday after
noon first among the contractors themselves
and then between the committee Of contractors
and the committee Of the Central Federated
Union which had nearly settled the strike fe"
DAYS ago. when the hitch arose about the de-
mand to have the employees in outside contracts
put on the same basis as the tunnel workers
The contractors committee sent for the COM
rr,ittee of the Central Federated Union, consist
ing Of William J. O'Brien. John J. Pallas and
Edward Friday. early i'm the forenoon. The
conference was a harmonious one. The con-
tractors committee had full power to settle the
strike. and subsequently the strike leaders, who
are now anxious 10 have the strike declared off.

Union committee. The latter will obtain from
the Central Federated Union tomorrow the
power 10 act and on Monday the two commit
tees will meet II is expected an agreement

mel viii be put under the union conditions OF
the organizations represented in the Central
Federated Union. This agreement will extend
TO the end of the rapid transit work. and pre-
vent all strikes until the tunnel is completed.

were on strike at the Forty-second-st. section,
be ordered back TO work, the work in
bad shape. pending the settlement. This was
agreed TO by the strike leaders and most of the
men this section went back TO work last

The strike leaders have come TO the con-
clusion that the points already conceded by the
contractors are more than they hai asked for

the contractors pledge themselves TO use their
influence 10 get union conditions for outside
contracts will not be insisted If IL is objected

as in some OF the sections the number Of non
union men employed has been increasing every
dav. The strike would have ended by all the
places of the strikers being eventually filled.
The walking delegates Of the Brotherhood or
Boilermakers and Iron Shipbuilders of America
ordered riveters employed in the Elm-st section
OF the tunnel TO quit work yesterday. Fifteen
OF the riyeters threw down their tools ana
walked out. They said their strike was because
