First Meeting This Morning.

The conference. or convention. which

be unique in that while only the nin"-
teen general managers and about as
many brotherhood chiefs. deputy chiefs
and secretaries will participate. the 500
delegates. two from each organization on
overs road, will be there in an advisory
character.
Il is doubtful II there will be any
votes TN the conference. The general
meetings, 1t is said. will consume only
part Of the time. for as proposals are ad-
yanced by one side or the other. the
parties will withdraw for consultation
among themselves. 1t is thought that
the delegates will have full power then.
The main point of contention will be
the demands OF the railroad employees.
passenger men excepted. for ten hours
pay for eight hours work. with time and
a half for all overtime beyond eight
hours. They are not asking for an
eight hour day as a maximum for hours
o. labor. but for pay upon that basis.
The railroads say that this concession
will mean an increase Of $100. 600. 900
TO their payrolls for this particular class
o. employees. As the latter constitute
only one-ifth Of the total number, the
roads officers have said they see no rea-
son why the remaining four-fifths should
not present similar demands. They on
tend that as they are now paying to
labor g. cents " every dollar taken in.
the increase would max II. impossible
for them to continue to operate unless
they are permitted to raise their freight
rates to a point which would seriously
hamper the business of the country and
