Senate. viii arrive, tomorrow morn
ing. when conferences with the par
ties 70 the dispute will begin. The
first move will be to frame a stipuia
ton acceptable to both sides as to the
questions to be arbitrated. The rail-
roads have presented a list of de-
mands for changes in existing agree
ments with their employees in mat
tiers outside the sphere of the con-
troversy as it existed during the le
gotiations up to the time arbitration
was agreed to. last week. They have
asked that their grievance be arbi-
trated along with those of the men.
A. b. Garretson and w b. Lee,
president. respectively of the eondHc-
tors and trainmens organiza tons,
have declared that the men will not
agree to simultaneous arbitration of
the mems and the roads demands, an
nauncing that should the roads presist
in their declared intention of pressing
their grievances at this time, the
strike recently authorized by vote of
the employees would be called at short
notice and 50, 1000 employees of the
Eastern lines would walk out
In view of the determined attitude OF
the men as voiced by their representa-
tives, belief exists that the mediators
will recommend an agreement To take NJ
first the mems demands and after these
have been decided by the arhitral board
to be selected, to give the railroads their
day in court, as it were, and settle this
dispute in separate arbitration. The en-
ployes unoffically have indicated a will
ingness to let matters take this course
