PLANTONRBTRAT DIPUTESADOPTE Two Railroad Companies and Their Employes Enter Into Agreement. By the Assoclated Press. BALTIMORE, Md., September 22.— For arbitrating disputes growing out of personal grievances or from the interpretation of the application of existing ‘working schedules, an agree- ment has been reached between rep- resentatives of the Baltimore and ©Ohio Railroad Company and the New York Central lines and representa- tives of enginecers, firemen, conduc- tors and tralnmen employed two companies, creating a reglonal board, technically n: “train service board of adjustment.” Details of the plan were given out at the executive oftices 6f the Balti- more and Ohio here. The board will consist of eight members, four to represent the two railroad systems and four chosen by the chief executive otlicers of the four train service organizations. The agreement provides that when disputes arise from personal griev- ances or from interpretation of schedules, the settlement of which by the usual method of direct conference has failed, they shall be passed upon by the new regional board, whose decisions will be final and binding on both the railroads' man- agement and train service employes. It will not come within the p-ovince of this board, however. to hear any disputes _arising from proposed changes In rules, working condi- tions or rates of pay, such matters being handled by the Rallroad Labor Board. The creatfon of the board grew out of a conference at New York recently between the chief operating officials of the two roads and the heads of the four big train service brotherhoods. —_— MR.

Special dellvery letters and parcels are frequently found, the Post Office Department reports. “Even first-class mail with uncanceled stamps is often shaken out of the sacks.

Friday 61 Years Ago Evening Star, October 18t - 1860 FIRE—At an early hour yesterday morning fire was seen issuing from the small frame, buildings on 6th, near the corner of C street, oc- cupled as a paint shop and tailor ghop. In'a-very short time it spread to the ad- joining frame shoms on 6th and C streets and all were destroyed. * ® ® The win- dows and blinds of the Na- tional’ ‘Hotel on C street were considerably blistered by the heat. The buildings destroyed were mnot very valuable, but the loss to the occupants, who are hard- working . mechanics, business upon a limited scale, {8 very heavy. * * * Thero - are many amusing reminiscences connected with these old shanties, the recital of which would ex- cite the laughter of those who enjoyed the practical jokes of 30 vears ago, which were So frequently origl- nated at that corner. Most of the jolly crew that as- sempled “nightly there have departed, a few only remain to' witness the destruction of the “hoodle” by the torch of the incendlary. doing The old National Hotel still occupies the corner of 6th and C streets, standing as a landmark of those days of '60.
