TWO PLANS WERE PRESENTED BY MEDIATORS, The conference between the Board and the “Big Four” ended at 11.18 o'clock, At Its conclusion Judge Knapp, speaking for the Board, satd: "We have been in conference for more than an hour and in that time we have given the representatives of the brotherhoods al) our reasors for believing that there is no other way of settlement but by arbitration, We have, therefore, formally suggested to the brotherhoods and the 690 vhair- men present, that they seriously con- sider our suggestion to arbitrate.” Two plans were laid before the brotherhoods by the mediators. The first, and preferred one, was for a joint invitation to President Wilson by the managers and employees for the appointment of an arbitration commission, The other was for agrees ment by both sides to the appoint- ment of a commission of fourteen, four to be selected by the managers and four by the brotherhoods, the re- maining #lx to be chosen by the eight aforesaid, With the termination of the ses- sion with the mediators, the railway representatives went into secret ses- sion to consider the propositions made to them. Tho attitude of the brotherhoods was clearly set forth in a statement by Chief Engineer Stone this mora. ing when he said: “We will refuse arbitration unless the mediators will come to us with a statement to the effect that the ratl- roads will grant the eight-hour day, That concession, I believe, makes us hesitate about refusing arbitration outright.” CAR STRIKE CHIEFS SPIED ON WITH A DICTOGRAPH Hole Cut Through Floor of Hotel Room Above That Used for Conferences, Leaders of the unton of street car employees who are etill staying at the Hotel Continental, Broadway and Forty-first Street, were much inter- ested to-day in the discovery of traces of a dictagraph in the room lately ocoupled by thelr chief, They have asked the police to investigate, President William D, Mahon, of the Amalgamated Association of Street Car Employees, oceupled room No. 642 during the week of strike trou- bles, Conferences of strike leaders were often held there, It was known that two men had the room directly above No. The two men left yesterday, and last evening a woman who got the room tripped over a hole in the floor covered with carpet, and it was found that @ hole seven inches square h been cut through flooring and gird just above an electric light fixture, Fourth Vice President P.
