were rapidly restoring normal services
today and the managers confidently ex
pected that by evening all lines would
be operating almost as smoothly as be-
fore the general strike on the roads of
Great Britain was ordered last Thurs
day night. There were some bitches. but
these were believed to be but temporary
obstacles to a formal pact. assuring a
better working arrangement between en-
pfoyers and employees satisfactory to
both sides.
The settlement brought about Saturday
evening through the good offices of the
government and the board OF trade pro-
vided for the appointment of sectional
concilation boards, representing both
parties, and which shall undertake to ad-
just all immediate differences. Tomor-
row the membership of a special COM
mission Of inquiry will be announced.
This commission will assume the burden
Of working out a permanent agreement.
Expect Advance in Wages.
The men expect an advance in wages,
concessions regarding the consideration
of future grievances and recognition of
their unions. Heretofore the railroad
companies have positively refused to
treat with the representatives of the
unions who were not in their own EN-
ploy.
On the other hand, the companies
have been assured that at the next ses-
sion Of parliament the government will
propose legislation providing that an
increase in the cost of labor due to an
| Improvement of conditions VIII be
! in ustificatiOn for a reasonable advance
Of railway rates within the legal maxi
mum.

The men on the London and North
| western road were still on strike today.
and there was some trouble on the Mid
| land railway. The Midland employees re-
turning to work this morning found that
in some cases they were not to be rein
stated exactly IN their old positions to
which men who had remained loyal had
been promoted. When the strikers dis
covered that they had lost their senior
ity they refused inferior positions pend
ing a reference of the difficulty to the
union executives.
Great numbers OF guards. engineers,
fremen and signalmen returned to work
at Manchester, but the porters, carriers
| and freight handlers remained out. Ad-
| ditional troops were sent to Manchester
| to assist In relieving the congestion OF
! freight at the railway stations.
OF 100000 strikers at Liverpool, more
| than one-third reported for work early
| today and the number increased hourly.

Governor Frear had something fur
ther to hand out this morning In con-
nection with the great difference be-
tween the assessed values OF the pro-

claims made. One claim was fifty
times more than the assessed value.
in making more careful analy-
SIS" he said this morning. 'the diff
ference shows up as even greater than
the figures gave out before. This
has a great deal to do with the fact
that the assessed value In many cases
includes much property not valued In
