STRIKE SETTLED.

41o atEtAo OA tuo GAN40 @A@@SA S@->7 Central Vermont has. been settled, through She efforts of Canadian Mn. intsE q Labor Rins. By ths terms of ths agreement ths men srs to get an increase of about Is per cent. ct present, retroactive to May 1st of this year. On June 1st, 1912. the wage soAle will bs brought to the standard of the Oanadian PAoiflo east of Ft William. This is not quite up to the ratss of the roads in the United States. The men gos tws oouOessiona from the roAd-arst. the standardiza- tion of the wage scale will come one year sooner than proposed by the management, and ssOen1ay. the in- crease granted at present Is from May 1se. instead of July 12. when the prop ositiOn was made. On the other hand, the company will keep the men ak work who have been put on since the strike began, and restore tue old men to their jobs As soon as possible. Just how this last condition will work out remains to be demonstFated. There WilI be much satisfaction locally in the know ledge. that an agreemens has been reached. Tho fraight business has been badly disorganised. and local shippers and receivers have been put to much Inconvenience and expense for she past two weeks.
