The fact that the conference lasted note and the additional fact that it is to be resumed appeared to indicate a willingness on the part of the rail- roads to reach a settlement.

The railroads were represented only by Messrs. Slade and Gruber and it is understood that this is merely a pre- liminary meeting to ascertain wheth- er a conference with the full commit- tee of managers is desirable or neces- sary.
