that Cree will be out in the forest on the

Cree on what he showed last season
looked like valuable youngster. He did
some good work in the infield and his
work in the outer garden also sparkled.
There is some talk that the little fellow
will be given a chance in the infield on

from the Wiliamsport club of the Tri

or Delaware, and which went into the
hands Of receivers in 1906, and for
the purpose of instituting suit against
Edward B Smith G. Co., local bankers.

PENNSY SETTLES
PAY CONTROVERSY
CO erenCe Of Conductors and
Tlainmen With Management
Ends With Settlement
COMPANY WILL NOT
COMMENT ON TERMS

The conductors and trainmen of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company have
amicably arranged the wage scale
with the management on the lines east
of Pittsburg and the conferences be-
tween representatives of the men and
the division superintendent at the
Broad Street Station offices are at
an end.
In the latter part of June and for
several weeks, the conductors and
trainmen threatened to strike. Lead
ers of the Order of Railway Conduc-
tors and of the brotherhood of Rail-
way Trainmen had several confer
ences with the management of the
railroad company and once or twice
q misunderstanding threatened a SER
ious trouble Finally, it was agreed
that a committee representing the
men confer on the adjustment of the
wage scale with twenty-four division
superintendents of the lines East of
Pittsburg The meetings have been
held in the offices of William H. My
ers, the general manager, in Phila-
delphia. The New York Central
award was the basis of settlement, II
Is understood.
According to a statement made in
Cleveland Ohio, by w G. Lee, pres
ident of the Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen, the terms of settlement
better the conditions of the men and
Increase the operating expenses of
the railroad. At the time conferences
were held in Philadelphia with Of
ficials OF the railroad, at which were
present Mr.. Lee, A. B. Garrettson,
president of the Order of Railway
Conductors, and about 120 other rep
resentatves of the men. the manage
ment declared that It was willing to
adjust the grievances provided the
operating expenses were not increas-
ed.
officials of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road refused to comment on the terms
of settlement. They asserted at the
time the men on the lines east and
west Of Pittsburg were balloting for
or against a strike, that the policy
of the railroad had always been lib
eral as to wages, and that the men
were receiving more than was paid
for similar services on other lines.
The two labor organizations at the
time of the first airing of the griev-
ances admitted that the yard rates
compared favorably with those of 9TH
er companies in the territory. They
and road rates should be higher on
the Pennsylvania system because the
policy of the Pennsylvania Railroad
has always seemingly been to educate
their employees in the belief that GER
tain of such employees were entitled
to from to 20 per cent. more than
paid by other companies for similar
services"
The New York Central award,
which was discussed generally during
the sessions of the men previous 20
theelast conferences. compelled an ad-
jlstment that was difficult, necessi-
tating the shifting of crews on short
runs in many instances so that they
could be worked a full day. This
award fixes a minimum wage of 1888
for ten-hour day for conductors,
and provides for a full days pay for
men who may not have worked ten
hours. The previous system of pay
on the Pennsylvania lines was on the
basis of time worked. An eleven-hour
day system was objected TO by the
men, who desired the same pay for
a ten-hour day.
