'DGCISIOII May Be Reached Today by New: Haven Employes i ! New Haven, June 21.—The question of a strike of two thousand clerks em- ; Ployed ‘in freight houses of the New !'York, New Haven and Hartford Rail- |road company rests with the com- jmittee of the. Brotherhood of Rall- ’way Clerks which will meet here later today to take firal action. Up till Zxmon no word had been officially ' passed along the line for a strike, al- though many clerks had heard ru- mors that such acticn had been or- - dered. j - dJohn J. Forrester, grand vice.presi- {dent of the brotherhood, who, by, vote of the clerks, had been given full power to act in the negotiations over grievanles with General Manager C.: L. Bardo of the railroad, has delegated his power to declare a sirike Lo the clerks! ccmmittec. The negotiations had reached the point where €Gen- eral Manager Eardo had been given until pocn today to reply to a de- mand that the grievances be submit- ted to arbitration along lines sug- gested by Mr. Forrester. | \ Strike Seems Certain. If no reply was forthcoming the' clerks’” committee was to meet and decide upon the next step, which, ac- cording to Mr. Forrester, would be to order a:strike. The immingnce of a strike brought to this city representatives of other i brotherhoods and several national of- ficers, the latest arrival being George H. Sines, national vice-president of the Broptherhood of Trainmen. The ecommittges of the conductors, train- men, locomotive engineers and teleg- raphers, with, their chairmen arrived over .might, with the exception of F. S, 'Bvans, chairman of the engineers, who is in Boston. May Dclay Order. The committees met with the na- tional officers’this noon at a local ho- tel to go over the situation. It s understood that before the clerks com- mittee - takes final action, it will be askéd by the joint committee of the other brotherhoods to give it a hear- ing. For this reason, it was stated | FOR SHIRTS WITH COLLARS ATTACHED Our own ideas in Col- lar Attached Shirts. The one collar that is right. Plenty of space in 'front collar sets well around neck. No but- tons to pull oyt. Points not too long, Big variety of patterns and plenty of whites— Silks too. $1.00 and up. The Curran Dry Goods Company CITY HALL toss had met the representatives of the other brotherhoods. Interest Ecoromic One, Mr. Forrester was asked what spe- cial interest the other brotherhood had- in- the gituation in view of the fact that the clerks brotaerhood was not included in the plan of federa- tion of the brotherhoods on the sys- tem, which plan was formulated at a general meeting held here the past winter, and 'ne replied: “Their interest is an economic one. of 19c. in all ‘dcp-n.menu. If the clerks strike freight trac will cease. Thede will be no one to dothe clerical work in freight houses. If the company should attempt to use members of other brotherhoods in tae work it would involve these brother- by a brotherhood officer, a strike or- der by the clerks’ committee is likely to be delayed. " No Statement Ready. Mr. Forrester, who attended a neeting of the clerks’ committee dur- g the morning, said later there was no statement to be issued at this time. He had not been requested by representatives of the other brother- hoads to meet them for a discussion of tha.situation, .nor that informally several officers of the other "brotherhoods had talked with him, although incidentally, about the grievances. He said that no sugges- |"tions @as to’ the wisdom of the clerks’ pogition had been advanced. ““The clerks’ grievances are mat- ters to be adjusted by the clerks’ brotherhood ,” sald Mr, Forrester, “agd no other brotherhood would presume to-tell us what to ' do ' any more-than we would have any right to make 'suggestions about ' taking care o7 grievanceg which other brother- hoods have.” hag the clerks’ | grievances but’ hs committee been asked to receive such | trate the remainder, and tae a committee. He said was a Tact | have refused to arbitrate a question hoods.” Real Issue in Grievances. Asked what the real issue was in the grievances, Mr. Forrester said it was the refusal “of General Manoger Bardo to live ' up to-the agreement with the clerks.. Mr. Bardo’s attitude, he said, had eonvinced the clerks that the agreéement was in his eye “A scrap of paper.” He said that Mr. Bardo had come to a tentative agree- ment on twelve items in the list of had refused to arbi- clerks raised by Mr. Bardo which had not previously entered the controversy. At the conference of the other brotherhoods it was said no state- ment would be issued. Informally members discussed the matter briefly. They sald that a strike would . not have the sympatiny of the engineers, conductors, trainmen or other broth- erhoods on the system. No wage question wag involved. To the other brotherhoods it was said the griev- ances appeared more fancied .than real, and Mr. Forrester had been told that the clerks would not be in their National Officers Present. Mr. Forrester said that he was aware that the other nrotherhoods had sent their adjustinent committees to New Haven and that several na- -tional officers were either here or on 1he way to this city. He had seen several himself. The- federal concillators, Meéssrs. Gilday ,and Reeves had not been to the clerks’ headquartiers, and he was ‘not aware they were to return, he sald.
