TALK NEAR END.
A statement attributed to G. H.
Reardon, an international officer of
the union, said to have been made
to Mayor Key in a conference late
Thursday, was that “all hope was
passed,” the men having grown
restive and wholly dissatisfied by the
long negotiations conducted by a
eommittee of union men with offi
cials of the company, over which a
strike threatend two weeks ago.
In these negotiations all points
were gettled except the amount of
pay. Ths men were understood to‘
demand 60 cents an hour instead ot‘
40 cents, last year’s contract rate,
time and one-half for overtime,
Sundays and holidays, and two weeks’
vacation annually on full pay.
The company appointed Luther Z.
Rosser, attorney, as its arbiter, and
the men named Madison Bell, who
had acted as their attorney in the
negotlations. As Mr. Bell's position
tmmediately was for the full demands
of the men, it was said, the appoint
ment of a third arbiter became nec
essary before wage negotiations were
begun, :
CONFERENCES HELD, |

made public late Thursday it was re

several conferences, in which each
urged that the other ghould make the
first nomination, This resulted

other arbiter woudld be accepted by
the men,

“There was a long conference be«

By GEORGE H. MANNING,
Washington Correspondent of The
Georgian.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.—A num
ber of memhers of the American
Legion have written to the Georgia
senators and congresamen in the last
tew days asking if they are in favor
of a bonus for the former service
men, what kind of bonus they favor
and what they propose to do about
it,
These letters have come since the
executive committ.e of the American
Legion went on record a few days
ago in favor of Congress giving the
service men a bonus.
Several letters also have been re
ceived from service men protesting
against any bonus and declaring that
after the American Legion conven
tion wunt on record in Minneapolis
last fall in opposition to a bonus the
executive committee had no author
iy to urge it
Senator Harris and the majority
~of the (ieorgia congressmen have de
clared themselv.s in favor of a bonus
' to the soldiers and probably will sup
;port the measure Congress decides
' upon to extend relief to the former
service men.
