NAY GET TOGETHER.
Both Sides of Railway Dispute In
clined to Compromise.

New York, April 8.--Neither employers
nor employed have mades decisive
movement in the wage dispute that may
terminate with a strike on the Central
railroad of New Jersey. 1t is expected
that the men VIII confer within the next
tWenty-four hours and by vote agree
upon a. plan of action. It is difficult to
take the measure of the sentiment of the
moving army of men that a railway sys-
tenn employs, but as fax as it can be
sounded on the Central the men seem
moved by a spirit of conservatism and to
be inclined to refrain from striking until
every resource of conference and arbi-
tration has been exhausted. The with
draWal from the city of the chiefs of the
brotherhoods Of railwa yme1 after an
unsuccessful attempt to secure confer
ence with the officials of the railroad
restores the dispute to one directly be-
tweeI' the company and it's men. Charles
H. Warren, vice president of the COM
pary, speaking for the railroad, made
Press:
1.-THE brotherhood chiefs evidently do
not know that it is a custom Of railroads
to close their general offices OIL Satur-
day afternoon. We We're closed IN usual
custom on Saturday afternoon ard IN
addition to that I was called away by
other business. / think under these cir
cumstances it was somewhat unusual
for them to expect me to meet them at
the time named by them. We are pre-
pared to be entirely reasonable about
the matter We want no dispute with
our employees and are prepared to pay
them the wages paid by other railways
in the vicinity.
I'VE have told them that we will take
any seven railroads they designate and
with a joint committee or a committee
to which we and they shall name, out
side men. make an investigation Of the
pay of the men employed by them and
abide by the results of the showing
made. We have also asked our men to
point out any specific case OF treatment
that is unfair and agreed to right any
injustice that may be shown. do not
know of anything that will be done to-
day, nor do I know of any plan for a
conference"
