Information has been received
from St. Louis that the Missouri
Pacific federated board has sus
tained the demand of the 0. R.
T. relative to an increase in
wages and the right of that body
to legislate and represent the dis
patchers and exclusive agents,
.and has referred the whole mat
tei7 to the chief executives of the
fi' jle brotherhoods who are now
in I session in S',. Louis.
/Should they sustain the action
°f the federated board a confer
ence would be asked with the
management of the Missouri
Pacific, and if the company still
refused to grant the demands of
the 0. R. T. a strike vote would
be taken from the individual
members of the five orders rep
resented by the federated board.
Should that vote be in favor of
a strike the telegraphers would
have the active sympathy of all
the members of the other four
orders.
