at the beginning of the morning shift,

BROTHERHOOD DISPUTE THREATENS
TO RESULT IN SERIOUS TROUBLE

that the dispute between the Brother

Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen Of

lines, would be formally taken up by
the board of directors of the railroad at
a meeting in this city today.
The trouble between the New York,
New Haven & Hartford and the Broth
erhoOd of Locomotive F'iremen of the
road grew out of a dispute between the
latter organization and the Brother

for the settlement of disputes through
a committee of their own selection who
are members of the same brotherhood.
The matter was brought to a crisis
about a week ago, when President Mel
len of the railroad denied the conten-
ton, maintaining that the contest is
between the two brotherhoods with
which the company has nothing to do.
The matter was carried by the firemen's
grievance committee to the board of
directors of the railroad. The real
seriousness OF the situation became ap-

stated that the same issues which had

that ii was the coolest night this win
