N ELL TO ACT

mediators under the Erdman act, left
today for Chicago to undertake the ad-
justment of the controversy between
sixty-one western railroads and the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.
Erdman Act is Invoked.
Chicago, Dec. 16.-The Erdman act
was invoked by sixty-one western
railroads as a means of avoiding a
strike threatened by engineers to en-
force their demands for an increased
wage scale. A formal appeal was adj
dressed to United States Commissioner
OF Labor Charles P O'Neill and to
Chairman Martin of the interstate
commerce commission to act as medi-
ators and try to effect a satisfactory
settlement of wages.
Refusal of the engineers to meet the
advances of the railroad managers
committee and agree on arbitration is
given by the railroads as the reason
for their action, and follows the re-
fusal of the engineers to accept an Of
fer of 91s per cent increase over the
old scale.
The demand of the members of the
Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers
at present is for an approximate in
crease Of II per cent. Results of a
strike vote over the proffered 9h
per cent increase were announced on
Monday by President Warren G. Stone.
The men declared in favor OF holding
out by vote Of 97.5 per cent
