ffIF SPECIAL.
Chicago. Nov. 3.-Rumor that the Van
aerb1lts had secured control of the Pere
Marquette System was practically confirmed
today by a prominent official of 4 Wander
bilt line.
Men high in railroad circles have known
for some time of the efforts which were
being made by Vanderbilt representatives
to secure the property. Less than two
months ago a thorough inspection of the
system was made by several Vanderbilt off,
Gals, among them being President New
mand and Vice President Brown of the
New York Central.
1t Is said that the system will be added
to the Michigan Central, and make ii a
system OF 1882 miles instead of a company
with 1.635 miles of road.
This means a further cooperation Of the
Frisco and Vanderbilt lines for business.

DISCUSS GRIEVANCES
Representative Engineers of 0.
S. |. Holding Biennial
Session Here.

Five engineers. representing the en-
tire system of the Oregon Short Line.
are holding their biennial session in
this city. The men constitute the gen.
eral board of adjustment, and are here
to discuss such grievances as may
have come up since the last meeting of
the body. One delegate is elected from
each lodge. and the chairman and sec
rotary are practically delegates at
large, as they are chosen without ref
erence to the locality in which they
may happen to reside
The present board is composed of the
following engineers: w. Baxter of Po-
catello, chairman; G. W. Oliver of Po-
catello, secretary; Gus Mertzheimer of
Salt Lake City. Ed Brady of Mont
pelier, J. G.. Burton of PocatellO. The
sessions continue from o'clock in the
morning until o'clock in the after
noon. AS there is considerable BUSH
ness to be brought before the board at
this time the members do not expect
10 conclude their labOrs before Satur-
day.
1t is understood that several of the
questions before the board are of con-
siderable Importance, but none of the
matters will be made public until after
the conference with the officials of the
line. Many of the subjects affect the
hours. length of runs and other work
OF the engineers Whether the QueS-
ton of wages will enter into the list
of grievances the men will not say One
of the members of the board said last
evening that he preferred to have no
ailusion made to this subject, and that
he felt satisfied that such questions as
We're presented to the company would
receive fair treatment.
After the list of grievances is framed
a conference will be held with General
superintendent Calvin, J. F. Dunn, SUI
perintendent of motive power, and 9th
er officials of the road. The members
VIII then return to their homes and
acquaint their lodge with what has
been accomplished. The men do not
anticipate any difficulty in securing
such concessions as they NAV deem
proper to ask for. They say that they
have always been accorded the most
courteous treatment and a fair hear
ing, and they are satisfied that a per-
fectly satisfactory adjustment of all
differences will be reached
These meetings and the conference
with the officials are for the purpose
of discussing and correcting such mat
ters as may occasion complaint. It
brings about a better understanding
between the men and the officers of the
road, and permits of an amicabIe ad-
justment of differences. where they
happen to occur. without resorting to
unpleasant methods which usually tend
to create more or less feeling. Each
question is taken up separately by the
men and it's importance weighed. after
which vote is taken, and if it is de-
cided that the matter is one to bring
before the officials it is entered on the
list
