tion.
Mr.. Orr met committee representing

Speaks for Employees.

Speaking for the Amalgamated Asso-
citation of Street and Electric Railway
Employees, of which he was the founder
and with which he has been affiliated
for twenty-six years, Rein Orr said:
when we make contracts with trac-
tion companies Ae keep them. The
point has at times been raised that we
are not financially responsible. for our
contracts. but there can be no question
but that, are morally responsible.
Violation of any of our agreements
means the loss of the good will of hun
dreds of traction companies that we
now enjoy. We have never gone back
on our word"
Mr.. Orr appeared to be deeply affect
ed by the action of the Washington
and Old Dominion railway employees.
He has made life study Of street rail

ord of the Amalgamated Association of

TELEGRAPH OPERATORS
At THEIR KEYS TODAY
Local Western Union Officials Say
They Do Not Expect
Trouble.

Nothing has been done today by the
members of Washington local of the
Commercial Photographers Union to-
ward calling a strike of union opera
tors in the employ of the Western
Union Telegraph Company because
eleven operators recently discharged
have not been reinstated.
1t was reported today that com
mittee of the union is to call upon Off
cia Is of the company and demand that
the discharged employees be reinstated
Immediately. II is charged by union
officials that the discharged men had
been dropped because they were sus-
pected of union membership.
Does Not Expect Trouble.
According to J. 7. Bresnahan, assist
ant manager of the Washington office
| of the company. ali OF the operators
needed were working today and no
| trouble is looked for because some
dissruntled employees wanted TO get
back in the company's employment
| Mr. Rresnahan said the conditions
under which the operators. and, in fact,
| all Of the employees of the company,
| are working. are better now than they
ever have been. THE operators receive
good pay for their work" he said. 1T
| is like other business, some men do
| better and faster work and consequent
fly they receive more paw than others.
1t is up to the man if he is to receive
the higher pay
Defends Working Conditions.
| He said that the operators, like the
| other employees of the company, are
given two weeks annual leave with
pay, are pensioned when they become
| old or disabled and that the working
conditions are of the best. Mr.. Bresna-
han said further that it is not the
policy of the company to drop men who
are capable Of doing the work and that
they keep all such men in their en-
ployment.
| Just what steps the union on1clals IN
| tend to take in the matter is not
| known. The Washington local met last
| night at the Raleigh Hotel and discuss :
| ed the situation. II was then decided
that committee should wait upon the
| officials of the company here and pre-
| sent their demands.

GIRLS BODY FOUND IN RIVER.
Gladys Stearns, 10, Had Feared She
Might Lose Sight

Brattleboro,, May ls.-After being in
the Connecticut river over II days, the
body OF Miss Gladys Stearns, 10, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Willis d. Stearns, of
Iinsdale, N. H., was found floating in
the river yesterday just north of the
Massachusetts line. 1t was close TO the
New Hampshire shore and was easily
recognized,
The body was found by Henry Pele-
itch OF Northfeld, Polish resident on
the G. l.. r. Alexander farm. He went
down to his onion field near the river
and as he had been asked to keep watch
Tor the possible appearance of the body
he examined the river and saw the body
floating near enough to the bank that
he reached it with short pole.
MIR. Peleltch went to the home of John
Fisher and notified the parents of the
| girl by telephone. II Was thought at
that time that the body was south OF the
state line and DIR. n. p Wood of North.
field, coroner, was notified. Later il was
discovered that it was just north of the
line, so the Hinsdale selectmen were in
formed, and they gave permission for
the removal OF the body TO the undertak
ing rooms of George n. idder of North
field.
The place where the body was float
ing is a mile or more from the Boston
& Maine railroad bridge across the Con-
necticnt river at South Vernon The
Connecticut River Power Co.'S diver,
John Care of Vernon, who searched for
the girl last week, did not go as far
south as that, but dynamite was explod-
ed in the river farther south, nearly to
the Sehell bridge. A motor boat had pa
trolled the river every day, and Mount
Hermon students and Others had kept
watch.
Miss Stearns, who was a popular wom-
an in Hinsdale, lived in her fathers fam
lily ON the Northfield road. On Friday,
May 5. she and her mother went to
Mortified for consultation with respect |
TO the girls eyes, which were very pain
full by reason of rheumatism. 1t is |
thought that on her way home that aft
ernoon she mistrusted that she might |
lose her sight, and she told her mother
that She wanted to pick Mayhowers and |
got out of the carriage.
As she did not return at night party
csarched for her, without result, and next /
morning it was learned that her hat and
coat were not far from the east end of
the railroad bridge. Tracks led from there
to the bridge. and it was at once assumed
that she jumped of, which conclusion
seems to have been correct. A diver was
and the river was dragged all
through the following week.
