CONDUCTORS WANT
"a PCT. INCREASE:
Peace Overtures Cease-Big
Railroad Strike Seems
Imminent

New York July s.--Peace overtures
ceased here today between As western
railroads and 100000 members of the Or
der of Railroad Conductors and the
brotherhood of Railway Trainmen. after
the employees representatives in confer
ence with the railroad managers an
nounced that "a per cent of the men had
voted to strike for increased wages.
Final action on the proposed tie up re-
mains with the general committee of 1000
of the conductors and trainmens organi-
cations. and a meeting has been called
for Saturday. 1t is the unanimous opin-
ion in operating circles that the strike
vote will be ratified unless the companies
offer increased wages, or agree to arbitra-
ton.
During negotiations today the Erie rail
road and two subsidiaries the New .Jer-
sey and New York and the New York.
Susquehanha and Western, withdrew
leaving AZ railroads in the conference.
The Erie system claims the increase de-
mended represents an annual cost to the
three roads of 81, 100000 and that the sys-
tenn in paying this sum would suffer In
safety appliances and equipment
The managrs' conference committee
will meet Monday to consider the decision
of the employees general committee The
railroads are then expected to make their
ultimatum.
