A HARD FIGHT.
Santa Fe Trainmen Making a Fierce
Struggle For More Pay.

Until 6:15 Monday night the Santa Fe
officials and Santa Fe conductors and
trainmen continued their conference in
the directors room at the general office
building. Another session is being held
today. Third Vice President Kendrick
thinks that today's conference will end
the negotiations.
Nothing is being given out as to the
progress of the work, or the probable
outcome. The employees are afraid to
say anything for fear of prejudicing
their case, and the officials are not will
ing to admit that they have any notion
of changing their original decision, not
to grant any increase in pay.
The length of the conference gives
ground for the belief that the trainmen
expect to make this conference an epoch,
and Will go to the last extreme to force
the officials into a compliance with their
demands The possibility of a strike
menaces the road unless it complies with
the requests for higher pay.
The confereeS are packed into the
moderately small room provided for the
directors. There is hardly room left to
walk between the chairs. Three or four
stenographers work in half hour shifts
taking down the testimony The testi-
mony is being worked up into manu-
script form as fast as given The stem
ographers for Third Vice President
kendrick. General Manager Nudge and
General superintendent Hurley are all
here taking testimony.
