New York, June 1.—The first joint conference between the representa- tives of the railroads of the United States and their conductors, trai men, engineers and firemen, for a tlement of the differences over the employes’ working hours and wages was begun here today in executive ion. Both sides expressed' confi- dence in an amicable adjustment. The principal question is whether the employes are entitled to an eight hour basis work day—ten hours’ pay at the present rate for eight hours of service. Over time pay is also in- | volved. Against these demands the 12 roads have submitted propositions rel- ative to the way compensation shall be paid to different classes of service. Elisha Lee, chairman of the com- mittee of nineteen managers repre- senting the roads, was appointed tem- porary chairman of the joint confer- ence today. REFUSE T0 WORK Twenty-six Journeymen Plumbers Strike Today, When Master Plumbers Fail to Answer Ultimatum. Recently the journeymen plumbers issued an ultimatum to the master plumbers, stating that if their wages were not increased from forty-eight to fifty cents an hour, a strike would ensue. Today was set for the time limit. The matter of working con- ditions was also broached. Tt is said there are about thirty-five journeymen plumbers in town. but as some are employed in the factories ,only twen- ty-six were concerned in the ultima- tum. The men had received no from the master plumbers and thi morning none showed up for work. A committee appointed by the master plumbers met last evening and de- cided to grant the demands of the men insomuch as the wages are con- cerned. The members also agreed to confer with a journeymen’s com- mittee this afternoon to discuss minor details of the trade. It is expected that the trouble will be amicably sett tled and the men will be back on the job tomorrow morning., word AT IT AGAIN TODAY.

After all the hullaballo at the city meeting last winter,. when the mavor rushed the municipal ice house ap- propriation through on the ground that he was saving the babies from diseases too numerous to mention, comes the information on June that not one of the 5,000 tons stored at the Shuttle Meadow house has been sold. In fact it is reported that ice dealers are not even inquiring for the city’s crop let alone buving. who had experience with municipal ice last year haven't forgotten it was a Josing venture and others profiting by that experience are not interested. Inquiry at the water department to- day brought the information that a few dealers had talked ahout the mu- nicipal ice, but to date that is as far as the business has gone. Tt is under- stood that the mayor has been in- quiring about the ice and when he learned that the water department had not sold any he intimated that some hurry up action was in order or he would take it away from the depart- ment and sell it himself. This, it will be remembered, was done by his honor last year. He sold the entire crop to Edward A. Rhoades at what was thought to be a good profit, but in proved otherwise as Rhoades failed to make gocd and the city had to peddle the ice out to anybody who would take it. Whoever buys the ice has to guarantee the city that it will be sold at retail for not thirty cents a hundred a pounds.
