Says Reports Were Exaggerated.


President Bracey Of the Mortified
Branch, G. G. n. T., speaking OF the re-
cent trouble and settlement at the Z.
II. Ellis Granite Company's shed in
Mortified, says that the facts in the
case as relating TO both sides Of the
contention were ridicuIously distorted
and exaggerated by papers outside Of
Mortified and the incident given a more
serious aspect than was warranted. He
said that the branch by the terms of
its charter was given the authority to
settle the differences that might exist
and it proceeded to along the lines Of
its functions. After a conference with
Mr.. Ellis, mutual understanding was
arrived at between him and the local
branch and at meeting Of the latter
held at II a. NJ on Friday it was voted
that at 12.45 b. m. that day the Ellis
company's yard would be an open one
and that the men would 90 back to work
in a body. Mr.. Bracey said that Mr..
Ellis had demonstrated the fact that
he had been piling up stock in the yard
and chat the supply would be kept up
so that all Of the workmen would be
given steady work from now on.
Mr. Ellis said that he was satisfied
with the result and did not think it was
necessary to make an extended state
