|MAY AVERT STRIKE
RAILWAY OFFICIALS AGREE TO
CONFERENCE WITH u. S.
AUTHORITIES.
CONFERENCES AT ONCE.
Commissioner NeiIl Certain of Favor
able Outcome of Difficulties
Erdman Act May Be
ignored.

New York, N. Y-Mediation of
the differences between the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers and
the eastern railways which have
threatened a strike on SO lines east
of Chicago and north of the Potomac,
is expected to result from the action
of the conference committee of rail
way managers in agreeing to confer
with Charles P Neill, United States
labor commissioner and Judge Martin
]. Knapp, of the United States COM
merce court regarding the dispute.
The decision of the railway man
ayers to confer with Messrs Knapp
and Neill was reached after con-
ference lasting practically all day.
The presidents of several of the rail
ways involved, also were in confer
ence here and it is understood that
they approved of the letter sent to
the government representatives.
Immediately upon receipt of their
letter, Mr.. Neill announced his pro-
gram for immediate action toward
ending the trouble, if possible. 1t is
way managers while Judge Knapp will
confer with the engineers.
To Compare Notes Later.
They will meet later to compare
notes. In this way he pointed out.
the contentious of each side will be
protected by secrecy from the other,
while giving the government repre-
sentatives basis upon which to work
for settlement.
Not Bound to Mediation.
On behalf of the railroads, follow
ing the giving out of their letter, it
was stated that the decision to con-
fer with the government representa-
tives did not mean that they had
agreed to mediation. The position o.
the railroads it was stated, is that
they will hear what Mr.. Neill has to
offer them but in case his proposals
are not satisfactory the railroads are
free to refuse them. In this event
status-the refusal of the railroads
to grant the demands of the engi-
neers. Despite this railroad view,
however, the opinion was expressed
generally that the pending negotia-
tons will result in arbitration. In
this event it was stated the provi-
sions of the Erdman law, which call
for three arbitrator will be ignored
and board of at least five and per-
haps seven men named to pass on the
question at issue.
From the attitude of the engineers
it appeared that they would welcome
arbitration, believing that review of
the whole question would result in
concessions to them.
