An Alternative Proposition Presented to Anacostia Raflway Drivers. The drivers of the Anacostia Railway Company must make up their minds before tcmorrow night whether they are willing to work for $125 per day in future or if the company is willing to pay $1.50 per day, they are willing to have a part of the cars now running taken off. Late last evening President Griswold of the railway company sent for the ten old- est drivers in point of service in the employ of the company and informed them that he wished them to decide within forty-eight hours which they would prefer—a reduction of wages or in the number of cars to be run. The men, through their spokesman, replied that they did not need forty-eight hours in which to formulate a reply; that their minds were already made up not to accept a reduction of wages, nor would they say that they are willing that any of the cars shall be taken off, as they want all their colleagues to have employment. They admitted that Mr. Griswold has the right, if he sees proper, to exercise it to either re- duce the wages or the number of cars. In the event, however, of a reduction of wages it is understood a strike will occur. Mr. Griswold is disposed to act with cau- tion In the matter and will, it is believ take no further steps until the forty: hour limit is reached. ——_ Local Terminal Facilities.
