The conference was called to reach,
if possible, some agreement or conclu'

by Mr.. Lee is that taken before the
conference between the railroad and

the eight-hour law, but had refused to
divulge it, as some of the roads had

Mr.. Lee added that any attempt at
subterfuge by the railroads will be
met with instant action.
Elisha Lee headed the conference

of the four trainmen's brotherhoods
were among the mems representa-

S. E. Heberling, president of the

advanced only eight or nine per cent
since 1906, whereas the cost Of living
had gone up more than twenty-five per
cent. He said he thought the de-
mands moderate in view of this and
because the occupation was the most
hazardous In railroad work"
Horace Baker, general manager OF
the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Tex.

demands had been refused because the
roads considered the present rates
fair.
