 Some time age the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmes, the Order of Rail way Conductors, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, the Brother hood of Locomotive Bremen and the Swfchmen's Union discussed the mat ter and appointed committees for the purpose of bringing about concerted action on the part of the five large organizations. A committee, com posed of representatives of the five organizations will hold a meeting here this afternoon to discuss the mat ter and decide upon some plan of holding a mass meeting of railroad employees for the purpose of protest ing against the proposed rate legisla- ton. In their opinion such legisIa- tion would mean a subsequent reduc- tion in wages, and they will make every effort to prevent the passage of such law. It is believed that a strong lobby will be sent to Washing ton to work against rate legislation.

 bit of the ground we have covered thoroughly. could not go back again and look for place We have not searched in the radius covered. have given up all hope that my brother or any of his party unaccounted for are yet alive. now believe they strayed far inland and died from thirst and starvation on the desert"
 Mir Grindell:s attitude was pathetic when he declared he had given up af- ter having taken every step in his pow CT to locate. his brother and party, dead or alive, on the coast of TibuTon Islands and was returning home to re- sume his business. However, he IS not without hope that the bodies may vet be recovered. and has not ceased his .endeavora to bring about this re- suit. Before. leaving Jhe Papago h. dians who were. with him or the last irip he announced othem that who- ever shouu recover any one of the Dot- ses would receive S200, that amount to be paid for the recovery of each body. The Indians will undoubtedly at once commence systematic search further in the interior than has yet been ven tured in order to earn the reward. As they are thoroughly familiar with the cUntry and trained to hardships in Ihe interior. there is ground for hope that they may find the bodies.
 The trip just ended by MT. Grindel and MT. Colvin was a strenuous one. They had with them F Indians. and on their way through the country spread out abreast so as to coveh sey- eral miles at the time. Camps were often made many miles from the head quarters started from, and the men sometimes went days without food ana on the scantiest sort of supply of wa ter, the latter for the most part being very bad. Storms were frequently en- countered. As soon as he has gath cred a few days rest MT. Grindell will resume his work as a travelling repre- sentative of the International Cores pondence School.
