on by the COMMITTEES
Of Conference.

The prospect Of an early resumption
Of work in the granite industry Of Barre
is much more encouraging to-day than
the action taken at Yesterdays meeting
Of Barre branch would seem to indicate,
and it is considered possible that work
viii be resumed in all plants in this
granite district within a week.
Prior to yesterday, the conference com.
mittees representing the granite cutters
and the manufacturers had hsId long ana
almost continuous sessions for several
weeks and when they separated Monday
night the committees representing the
granite cutters felt that they had &C.
cured every concession It was possible
10 get from the manufacturers and the
committee representing the manufactur-
ers felt that they had conceded all their
organization would possibly stand for.
The settlement agreed upon BY the two
committees is said to be a. good and
better than any other in New England,
and while it's terms have not been made
public, II is understood to be On the basis
Of 40 cents an hour for three years and
f0ss cents for the two years following.
with provisions as to the bumper" that
arc satisfactory.
The conference committee from Barre
branch recommended and spoke Ia favor
81 this settlement at Yesterdays meet
ing Of the union. but 10 no avail, a. the
meeting rejected the settlement BY
vote Of $40 against to 385 for it Fees
ing that the union did not have faith
or confidence in them. the members Of
the conference committee then resigned,
but the meeting refused to accept the
resignation.
There Il . feeling, however, that an
other meeting might act differently on
the proposition. II It will not excuse
it's committee, IA must listen to ii, and
ia view of this IL is expected union
meeting win be called tomorrow AZ
next day.
The manufacturers at their meeting
took action on the agreement. but sealed
the vote until the result = tie union
meeting was learned. he the union re-
ieeted It. the vote Of the manufacturers
Vas not declared
TIE committees representing the tool
sharpeners and the polishars met COM
mittees from the manufacturers last
evening, and practically completed their
4 agreements. The same we're submitted
