The grievance committee of the North
ern Pacific telegraph operators is still
in the city, but it has practically ahan-
doned the fight for recognition of tie
telegraphers as a body The company
in its answer to the committee, positively
refused to consider the operators in the
light of an organization and subsequent
efforts to induce the management to le-
consider its position in this regard have
proved unavailing. They have therefore
lost the most important part of their
fight, and are disposed to abandon fur
Their efforts.
The committee will wait on Mr.. Ken
drick either today or tomorrow, but the
only request it ie likely to prefer is that
of an increase in the scale of wages,
amounting to about ten per cent.
There is reason to believe that even
this demand will be refused, but one
more attempt will be made to secure a
raise
