eS ths proposal would be accepted. Timo-
thy Shea of the Flremen, said he had
mot heard from all the unions, so that
the matter still was unsettled, nor would
ihe indicate whether those which had re-
piled had accepted the proposal. Tere
were reports however, that the trans
portation workers would remain out of
The conference unless all unions had one
delegate each. as they had asked. Presi-
dent Lee OF the Trainmen and President
Sheppard Of the Conductors will arrive
here tomorrow when the proposal Will
be further discussed.
The length of the conference is a mat
ter of uncertainty and will depend on
the progress made by the delegates in
formulating a programme to guide in
dustry until normal conditions are re-
stored. All physical arrangements for
The assembling OF the conference In the
Pan-American Building have been COM
pleted, but a temporary presiding offi-
Ger 10 yet to be named. Secretary Will
pom. In making preparations for the
meeting, has been loath to take the
rhair In the absence of President Will
son because of suggestions that undue
influence might appear to be given the
labor side of the questions coming up
for discussion. Secretary Lane has been
spoken OF Tor chairman, because he was
one of the first to suggest such a con-
ference.
1t seems certain that the conference
Will be opened by high Government
official, who will make way for perrna-
nent hartman when the conference eff
feet an organization. President Wilson,
Through Secretary Tumulty is expected
70 suggest to the conference his choice
for presiding officer.
While the railroad unions appear to be
the only group invited which may re-
fuse to participate, the conference will
assemble with the farmers and negroes
dissatisfied with their representation.
Farmers organizations have protested
fhat they should have more than three
delegates, and some negroes have re-
quested that member Of their race be
appointed to present their intrss In
answer to the former 1t has been pointed
out that two of the public's delegates are
farmers. in addition to the farm or
Sanizations' representatives. A delegate
was not accorded to the negroes, it was
said officially, because no attempt was
made to draw a color line in considering
labor problems, and all recommendations

phatically that 1t had never opposed fair
arbitration.
In the method OF conducting the meet
ing there was considerable improvement
yesterday over the proceedings of the
previous Sunday. Members of outside
printing trades unions who swarmed
into the meeting of a week ago were
barred yesterday. None but members Of
Big Six who could show cards in good
standing or be vouched for by -espon-
sible parties were allowed to pass In
side the doors until the proceedings were
concluded.
Irrespective Of what Big Six does to-
day, II In believed that some definite ao-
tion on the New York printing situation
will be taken In Washington, where the
Allied Printing Trades Council meets at
the Harrington Hotel. This meeting will
be attended by Marsdeh q. Scott, pres
ident Of the International Typographical
Union. and by Major George l.. Berry.
president of the International Press
mems and Assistants Union.
The Allied Printing Trades Council
controls the use OF the union label on
all printed matter. and it was inti-
mated on good authority yesterday that
Major Berry would recommend that II
prohibit the suspended unions headed by
bdBity anu kNuldu ubit6 tiio iaboi
on their output In the future,
The International heads are expected
to instruct the councils In this city to
such effect within the next day or two.
Many publishers yesterday issued let
ters to their customers informing them
that they were obliged to discontinue
until the strike should be broken. A
typical notice of this kind was sent out
by William Wood & Co., publishers OF
the Medical Record, It was directed to
subscribers and read as follows:
1.-The Medical Record has been pub
lished continually for the last flfty-three
years and until this week has never
missed an issue. The number for Octo-
Der 4 SAY not appear on time.
This regrettable occurrence Is caused
by strike of certain organizations
of printers employees which will COM
pletely tie up the Offices In which they
are employed. AS a result 1t Is expected
that 152 weekly periodicals published ir
this city will fail to come out this week
1t may be mentioned in this connection
that the demands of these men are sc
printers and publishers alike, have real
lied that issue must be Joined at once
or disastrous results will follow.
with this explanation of the situa-
ton we ask your patient forbearance.
THE service of the Medical Record
will be resumed at the earliest possible
moment"
Big Six Typographical Union will
meet again Sunday afternoon In the
New Star Casino.
