port TO the Southern .eetr. rile,s ana
have expressed their Willingness to bact-
them in their demand for higher wase;
and shorter hours. should the occas sion
arise.
While H. q. Alexander. chairman OF ti.,

Mr.. Coapman's absence the officials of
tho road are represented 1T the confer
erce by Vance ". Taylor. slperinte ndent
of the department OF transportation.
Tie question of submitting. the settle
me-t of the demands to the media ton
board still is pending. 1t is the wish Of
the telegraphers that the matter be set
tl"d in the offi.e Of the railway officials
without going to the mediation board. aud
on this point fhey are making a strong
stand. On the other hand the officials Of
the road re desiroas Of turning the whole
question over to the mediation board.
During the last few DAYS the confer

until late in the afternoon. and matters
now are shaping themselves to crisis.
Ohfcsals at the Southern offices said this
morning that they looked fo- "A speedy

The telesraphers are still firm in their
demands for an Increase in wages OF
a Bout II per cent and an eight-hour day,
and nothing. they SAY, will induce them
TO accept less. IT was last year that they
demanded an increase Of - per cent in
wages and failing TO get it We're awarded
half that amount. The prosperity Of the
Southern Railway Company. they claim.
merits an increase in the wages of their
employees.
