of the grand secre tary of ths Order of Hailway Conductors which have been sent out to the managers of the various railroads The report in made np almost entirely of bitter denunciations of of Locomotive Engineers The following are It is unnecessary to do more than call tbe attention of the of the order to the fact that divisions of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers have passed reso lutions 5hat after trouble with the 0 B t Q should been settled no mem ber of the order should be permitted to run a train where a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive were employed and why forsooth the members of the order have not willing to mabe Of stepping for the engineers to mount higher they have uot joined in n their owu interests to date the iu a word they to bemon and to ta duties I say with tbe time ban come when conductors should in instance oppose this organization in its de mands of the railway companies because every time yon aid tbe engineers you your own standing and probable increase of remuneration it there au instance on record where the engineers have aided in tbo degree any other than themselves They apply to the switchmen firemen one whom they think can be lo aid them and soon as tbe trouble is orer commence to prats that their organization keeps itself free from alliance with any other that its members are skilled labor and afford to place their skill on a par with the unskilled of other organizations by assisting them Behold them now on their knees to the switchmen and associations It IB time for the conductors to teach tbe railway officers what tha engi themselves already well know and are to conceal that of the conductors of the United States are capable and trustworthy The conductors on tbe Chicago Burlington and Quincy have already demonstrated this and they are ready to do it on other roads I hope sincerely that the time is closo at hand when they will not only ba ready but rilling to do so all over the United States Today the engineers receive pay for the intelli gence experience and responsibility of tbe conductor They have been able to ac this result only through the aid or at least the sympathy of the themselves A

strike would in all likelihood then take place At police special were being sworn in all day from reserve lists of the department Information as to what roads tbe cars would be sent by the Burlington
