EMPLOYEES SEEK AN ADVANCE

New York. Aug. 30.-The demand Of
motormen and fremen Of the L. road
for an increase in wages and Il de-
crease in the hours of labor in the ne ~
subway was refused today by the Off
cials OF the In -erbOrough Rapid Tran
sit company. This decision WAS an
bounced after a long conference be-
tween General Manager Bryan and
General superintendent Hadley OF the
InterboTouEh company and a commit
tee representing the employees. The
question Of wages arose when arrange
mentS were being made for opening
The subway. When the announcement
was made that applications foT posi-
tions in the subway would be received
on a certain date and that men at that
time in the employ of the company on
elevated and surface lines would be
given preference, il ak was announced
that the pay for mOtOrmen would be
s. for ten hours The mOtOrmen on the
elevated lines now receive $3.50, and
movement was begun 10 secure sim
liar rate in the subway. Many meet
ings have been held and the question
has been widely discussed by employees
of the road, but no formal action re-
gardng the enforcement OF the de-
naHd has yet been taken

Mr.. Jencks said that arrangements had

said tonight that as the negotiations
for a settlement regarding the pay and
working hours of the men to be en-
ployed in the new subway are still in
the hands of the local committees they
are here simply TO watch the progress
of affairs. They admitted, however,
that Chief John J. Hannahan of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen,
who is at Peoria, H.. has been asked
by telegraph To come here as quickly
as possible. as Assistant Grand Chief
Hurley understands that the men are
anxious to strike and he may not be
able to restrain them in case Mr. Bel

mands.
