[ 1 the men, might be delayed, if any hasty action was taken.President Foster scorned the idea that the appeal of citizens should be abandoned because it might inter fere with the increase of pay to the tramway workers.If there wys any falling down on their increase there, was always the open economic power of | demanding "Your rights and being men enough to strike for them, as others had done." lie claimed that the ori ginal trouble was with the Quebec ib.v eminent who were responsible for all I tin* Commissions.Workers had helped to elect that Government.Public meetings were of no purpose.There ":is only one legal chance given and that was to appeal to the Public Ftilities* i 'nminission.Delegate Laeonibe, president of the ; Tramways I'nion, replied to Mr.Foster by stating that a strike of their men would be a greater hardship on the people of Montreal than it would be; for the men and moderation was hie suggestion, because the whole matter hinged upon thnt valuation of s::ii,iiiiii.000.It was delegate Be 11aml who brought forward the first resolution to annul the contract through an injunction, and; he was followed by delegate Fram q who brought forward an amendment ! as -tated which was adopted.Delegate Mathieu counselled great care, citing the contract of the Mont ! real bight, lleai ,v Power Co., which franchise was opposed some years ago by the press and the public, with the result that that company was operating without a commet and without a franchise.The Council went on record a.s up-posing the system of advertising the names of minor employees who were dismissed from the civic employ.This was considered uncalled for and un- ship upon til of this City, to re-route th ner to allow their destinât the use of transfer.And lastly we feel that tin figures upon which the increased fares are based must be carefully inspected ami revised so that no possibility of error may exi-t.and to tlii- end the books of the Company should be accessible to the proper representatives of the people in older that their interests may be fully protected.F'or all of these reasons we respectfully urge that your body give our request immediate consideration.Thanking you we remain, The Montreal Trades Council.besides it cast a stigma on of them which not only did was unfair in every way.apport was also pledged to necessary every one harm but Moral - igarmakers who were now in a lock,oh with the Wilson Cigar Company ol Montreal and Toronto.This was occasioned by this firm putting in machines and replacing union men Ingirls.lelegutes were seated: 'liters and Joiners: El-I'lrie Binette; Local and Joiners: li.St- A.La- mil The following Local 11 j;, i 'arp zéar Fréchette, FM, Carpenters Maurice, O.Miron,.General railway tie up possible.Grave fears were entertained yesterday that a general railway strike would be called all over Canada.The Federated Trades have made a demand to the Railway Board at Ottawa, and it was refused.The natural sequence must be a strike.However, all parties concerned me trying to avoid the worst ; and a conference with leaders of both 1 sides may accomplish a settlement.The men in the Federation include ! mechanics, carpenters, painters, etc., and generally employees of tin* shops in all roads, both government owned and otherwise.They are now working j under a peculiar classification.They ’are asking to be grouped in three elas j ses, with 7Ô cents an hour for men in t hi* first class, t > "1 cents for second; • lass, and 7>7i cents for the third.All these rates represent increases of con' siderable sums over present rates and ; in some cases the increase amounts to ; 100 per cent.The men claim the geueral thought that living is so high that they must I got more wages, and to Mr.M, V.loo’s example in the States, where all rail way help received increases.On the other hand the railways claim j that to give the rates asked would impose an intolerable burden on them just now when operating costs are Chilliwack, was tied up with a strike Tiny asked for higher wages and shorter hours ot work.The company's electric workers also went out and at the time of going to press there seemed a remote chance-of settlement.Jitney services are in force in some pinces.Otherwise citizens are greatly incommoded.Added to this trouble came g.Oini ship refused to operate| tlic power company strike.A concilia rion board is at work.No effort has been made to run the cars at all, but in the electric depart ment many new workers have been on-listed.Late Thursday the ship yards men went back to the number of i’.ouii and that was in the Coughlin yards only.The President of the Street Railway union has stated that there will be no change in their demands.Granted wage increase in Winnipeg.The civic clerks in Winnipeg have! evidently won u victory for they have been granted this neck an increase of from ten to fifteen per cent in their! wages.It appears however that this ¦ ¦his.of help did not take part in the recent -trike ot eitv etnplovees.WOMEN’S WORK AND WAR ' ' l.i t us t in ywliere mill nl cv t vil opportunity ilrvuiiiil IIIe full enfranchisement of irowiea.This right is a fundamental not'd for every tcorl.ing minimi, mid, if we net intelligently, connut he longer di uieil.Il h i-ii in eer hope for equal économie opportunity mul a mini with men until we have the ballot.IF.si.o’!
