Conference Commit- tees to Report Penn- sylvania Francise Withodt Changes. TWO QUESTIONS ARE OPEN Labor and Perpetuity Clauses Left Undecided and Must Be Voted In by the Board of Aldermen. No agreement was reached this after- noon by the conference committees on the proposed Pennsylvania cross-town tunnel. ‘ After a long discussion it was de- clded to report the subject back to the rallroad company, the Board of Alder- men and Rapld-Transit Commission without any further changes, This leaves the labor and perpetuity clauses still open. Among those at the conference were ‘omptroller Grout, Alexander E. Orr, President Fornes, of the Board of Al- demmen; Commissioner Woodbury Lang- don, Alderman Walkley, William Bare- lay Parsons, Edward M.

He had announoed earlier in the day that he was willing to with- draw his objection If the labor ques- tion could not be dealt with legally, In raising the question in the conference he sald: "The city of New York |x committed to the eight-hour law and the wage scale, I would like to know now if the company Is still oj the adoption Of that part of the agree. me Mie certainly are,” answered Vice: President Greene, “We cannot, agree to something we have no power to do.
