was up ladder. Both jumped for the
ladder. Phelps reached it, jumped
aside and shouted:
You go first, Jim, you are married."
Staplebury sprang up the ladder and
escaped with slight burns. Though
Phelps followed at his heels, his act Of
herOism cost him his life. Both men
We're being cooked when Phelps jump

association and the national association
Of machinists held conference in New
York, Mt which an attempt was made
to reach an agreement on the wage
matter. so that the strike proposed for
May 10th could be avoided.
Mr.. O'COnnell, however, says that the
employers refused to arbitrate the
question Of wages nationally, but that
they expressed a willingness that this
matter would be settled by employers
locally, each Individual case to be treat
ed as such. This method is unsatisfac-
tory to the representatives of the ma
chinists' association, who express the
opinion that this would prolong indefi-
nitely the settlement of the question.
Upon his return to the city, Mr.. O'COn-
nell promptly prepared the order for
the strike, and 1t was sent out by mail
yesterday.
Mr.. O'COnnell says that about 200
firms whose employees represent prob
ably twenty per cent. of the 100000
men who will be affected by the prOpOs-
ed strike. have signed agreements for
the reduction in hours of labor and the
increase Of pay, so that the agitation
on the subject already has benefited
them materially.
For prudential reasons the executive
committee has determined not Mt this
time to apply the strike order to the
railroads. Whether it will be done in
the future will depend altogether on
developments.
