CONDENSED NEWS ITEMS HAPPENINGS FEOSl ALL OTEB THE GLOBE. A despatch from Montreal says : The committee of the Krotherhoods of Railway Trainmen and Railway Conductors have refused to accept the sward of the board of concilia- tion in regard to the wage dispute with the Canadian Pacific and Giand Tru-k Railways. Tlieir de- cision was made on Wednesday af- ternoon, when they sent the follow- ing telegram to the Minister of La- bor at Ottawa : "The general committee, repro- •enting the men employed in the tiain and yard service on the C. P. it unanimously request us to ad- vise you that they have received an i thoroughly considered the award handed out by the board of arbitration in the recent investiga- tion. "While thanking the board foi its «arncst efforis, honest considera- tio'- and intent in preparing the award referred to, the committee are compelle^l to advise you that 1', is unsatisfactory, being imprac- ticable of adoption, and that it can- not be a cepted. "For rea-sons best known to the gentlemen comprising the board, standards and comparative differ- entials existing in the territory and on the C. P. R. have been entirely ignored, or, worse still, revcrued, thereby making the award as hand- ed down impossible of acceptance. "Wo are this date writing Mr. McNicoH, quoting the telegram, und asking if his company are still indisposed t^ recognize past and recently revised standards in the territory." This is signed by James Mur- dock, vice-president of the Brother- hood of Railway Trainmen, and S. H. Berry, vice-president of the Or- der of Railway Conductors. The standards referred to in the telegram to the Minister of Labor nro tho"© paid by United States railways entering Canada, so that practically the demand of the men is that wages on Canadian railways be placed on the same basis as tho-'c in tho United States in ter- ritory contiguous to the Canadian border, that is upon the New York Central and its affiliated lines, which are closely in touch with tho Canadian frontier.

I gave iny- e^lf up, thinking I had nothing to fear, as the shixiting was in self- defence, taking the first train and returning with the officer, when 1 could easily have escaped."
