Only Ray of Hope IS That
Grand Lodge Officers May
Order Men Back to Work
Pending an Investigation.

THE offense OF INSTRUMENTATION is
one that railroad company cannot
overlook, said President Brock.
ar. Cowan cannot 20 back to work
on this road
With four OF the propositions
Strengthened out and the fifth thus
disposed of by the president. Mr.
Brock gave the men until 10 o'clock
last night to return to work and so
the long conference ended.
The railroad employees, to the NUM-
her of about one hundred and fifty,
met last night in Miners Union hall.
and the proposition OF returning to
work, according to the Brock ulti-
matum. was discussed and voted
upon The result of the meeting was
that the men refused to return to
work unless Conductor Cowan was
reinstated
Shortly before 10 o'clock, the conf
mittee called at the railroad Office
where President Brock and Superin-
tcndent Hedden were waiting to hear
their reply The communication was
sent into the private Office and the
men waited for ten minutes, and re-
ceiving no reply from the inner Of
fee, took their departure
There is a ray OF hope, which may

tion without a difference, but those
of the men who were seen claim
that they are within their rights in
the premises The constitution of
the unions of all the trainmen pro-
yides that there shall be no strike
until it is declared by the majority
vote Of the union Before this can
be done any man who thinks he has
grievance must submit to to the
railroad; then If he does not re-
ceive satisfaction, according to his
idea of justice, he shall appeal to
the grand lodge A member of the
latter shall inquire into the matter
and If he be unable to adjust the
difference. he shall report to the
local union and vote taken as to
whether there shall be a strike
While the employees declare that
they are acting as employees and not
as union men in the matter, some of
them agree that the national lodges
may not take the same view of the
matter, and may not stand for the
fine distinction that they are max
ing. They say that the national
unions have not been notified by
them OF the strike. On the other
hand the railroad company has the
right of appeal in the premises, and
this is taken to be the method of
procedure on the company's part il
the move has not already been
made.
II the national lodges do not step
into the breach, It is hard to say
where the trouble will end Presi-
dent Brock declares that under no
circumstances will he permit the re-
turn of Cowan to the employ of the
company, and the men say that they
will not return to work until the
discharged conductor is reinstated
and with both sides equally deter
mined, It looks like a long drawn
out battle.
