WILL NOT ARB|TRATE.
Union Electric Telephone Com.
pany Wants Men to First
Return to Work.
LATTER ANXIOUS FOR SETTLEMENT
Appoint Member of Committee and
Ask Employers to Name
the Other.

Negotiations for a settlement be-
tween the Union Electric Telephone
d Telegraph company and its striking
employees have struck another Snag
and the difficulty seems as far from
an adjustment as ever. This morning
committee representing the men
called at the company's offices and.
in accordance with an agreement
among the employees at a meeting
held last evening, announced that
theyaNvere willing to arbitrate accord
ing to the terms of the agreement
under which they had been working:
that the men had appointed their
member of the board and asked the
company to name another, the two.
failing to agree, to name a third.
The officers of the company an
nounced that they were willing to ar
bitrate, but they insisted that the
men return to work at once pending
the announcement of Il finding by the
board. The committee representing
the employees withdrew for instruc-
tions, first giving as their personal
opinion that the men would refuse to
consider such proposition.
Company Gives Side
As it now stands the company. ac-
cording to statements given out at
headquarters, holds that the agree
ment under which the arbitration is
proposed to be conducted does not
take into account a cessation of ac-
tivities during the hearing of the
case; and further that there is moth
ing to arbitrate while the men are
not working. The officers say they
are perfectly willing to take their
cause before the people and be judg
ed according to the merits of their
case. 1t is claimed that the fact that
the men did not return to work now
is an indication that they do not in
tend to abide by the decision of the
board if they do not like the finding
The men, on the other hand. say
they have no assurance that thciI
case will he arbitratcd if they return
To work at once and that they prefer
to have the difficulties solved before
going any further.
They claim, too, that committees
representing their organization re
pcatedly called upon the company
and sought adjustment of the griev-
ances before the strike occurred. but
in each instance they were sent away
without any satisfaction.
