ment With the Trainmen Re-
fused to Discuss II.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 13:--An
agreement has been reached between
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
and it's engineers, firemen and train
men on the lines east of Pittsburg
and Erie. There have been several
conferences in the last two weeks be-
tween General Manager Atterbury

ment whereby the runs would be
more evenly divided as to time, and
the firemen and trainmen demanded
either an icrease ilawages or a more
equitable schedule of runs and divi-
sion of time, complaining that under
the annual percentage increase in
wages granted by the company sever
al months ago, the conductors re-
the work they. did, and that the ad-
vance was not equitable.
Neither General Manager After
bury nor the representatives of the
men would discuss the concessions
which had been granted The fact
that an, agreement had been reached
was made public in the following
statement, issued today:
General Manager Atterbury has
advised general superintendents of
the PENNSYLVANIA lines east of Pitts
burg and Erie that the engineers and
firemen have reached satisfactory
settlement with the company, and
the members of the committees have
left for their homes. The conductors
have also arrived at an agreement
satisfactory to both them and the
management. n e@
The members of. the committee
representing the trainmen will go
home to ascertain If the concessions
accorded them by the company are
satisfactory & a.
