with the President on the condition
of the railroad equipment, departed
for Cleveland to report to their
chiefs. 1t Is understood a meeting
of the brotherhood officers is being
arranged there.
The fact that the agents of the
brotherhood did not ask for a Gate
upon which their chiefs could see the
President is taken to mean that Mr.,
Harding believes he can settle the
strike before such a conference be-
m necessary, and so informed
them. officers of the shopmen insist
it is only a question of a few days
before the equipment of the roads
