Men in Mass Meeting Next
Saturday Night.

The terms proposed by the Detroit
United Railway for a settlement OF
the wage controversy between the
company and its union motormen and
conductors were made public By In
ternatioual President Mahon, Of tie
union, Monday afternoon. AS prey
iously stated u The Times, the propo-
sitioH is a compromise. the company
Offering a maximum wage Of 3 cents
an hour The men demanded a hat
rate OF 80 cents an hour, regardless
of length Of service The company
offers % cents an hour for the first
six months; % cents an hour for the
next II months, and 2S cents an hour
thereafter. The present schedule pro-
vides for % cents for the first year;
% cents for the second, and y cents
an hour for the third year and there
after.
The only other question at issue Is
that OF hours OF service At present
nine hours constitute work day,
which must be put In within IL IL
consecutive hours. The company asks
that the time be extended 70 10 hours.
These propositions will be submitted
TO the men for their approval or dis
approval at mass meeting TO be held
in the Light Infantry armory on Con
gress-st. next Saturday night at y
O'Clock, and there is every reason to
believe that they viii be accepted
There seems to be feeling that The
wages offered are as favorable as
would be obtained il the question were
TO go TO arbitration, and the conces-
sion Of half hour in the matter Of
time is considered very slight one.
Should the men vote against accept
ing these propositions, however, TIE
questions involved will be submitted
10 a board OF arbitrators, appointed IN
accordance with the agreement.
Circulars are now being prepared
for distribution among the men, set

RAILROADS MAY
HELP PROMOTION

The reorganization of the Promo
ton Committee will take place next
week and at that time 1t is probable
that Secretary Wood will make re-
port on the work which has been
done at Atlantic City during the past
few months,
At the regular meeting yesterday
afternoon nothing but routine bust
ness was taken up. The secretary
told of interest that eastern branches
of trans-contihental roads had taken
in the Atlantic City exhibit and said
that in order to turn travel across
the continent where they could get
their share they would probably be
ready to boost Hawaii,
Mr.. Wood thought that It was en-
tirely possible that several of these
roads would help support an Office of
the Promotion Committee in the east
with this end in view.
