In the final settlement of the wage con

of fairness was displayed by Mr. Aahlev,
acting president, that It caused the com
mittees of firemen and trainmen, and in
fact all parties concerned, to entirely for
get and forgive the past.

Blodgett and Mr. Travoua, counsel for the
Wabash, and Mr. Judson, counsel for the
brotherhood, in bringing about necessary
meetings and outlining the plan of settle
ment. The settlement Is in full accord
with other late revisions of schedules.
The settlement Is entirely satlafactory to
all. and the committeemen will return to
their former positions In the service, after
being compelled to remain here many
months, with only the kindliest feeling and
respect for their employers, and especially
for Mr. Ashley, Mr. Blodgett, Mr, Travou's
and Mr. McOee, with whom final aettlement
wan made.
The committee feels it waa Justified'. In
asKing ior tne same compensation and
working conditions granted employes of
other-line In competitive territory. Noth
ing more waa demanded at the time.
We have tried In handling thla contro
versy to demonstrate by our actions to
the business and labor world, that members
of organised labor are law abiding and
rieace loving cltixena. We leave our action
n this controversy and our past records
as organizations In the handa of the public
for approval or criticism. -

by the strikers and but one of the assail
anta has been arrested. His fine was paid
