THE UNION MEN RETURN Were Discharged Over A Year -'"Ago For Being Careless . And . Negligent. . ? 'Albany, N. Y., Jan. 20. The strike on the Delaware & Hudson Railway was settled tonight, Company .officials met the men's demands that they restore two discharged employes, Engineer James A. Lynch and Conductor F. A. Slade, to their former po sitions. All strikers will return to duty immediately., G. W. W. Hanger, a member of the Federal Board of meditation and conciliation brought about the agreement. A, settlement was reached only after Mr. Hanger had suggested to company officials that they yield to the demands of the men, Arbitration he declared was im possible. Normal conditions would be restored in two hours, union officials promised at 9:30 o'clock. As soon as Clifford S. Sims, vice president and general manager of the railway signed the agree ment orders were sent put for men to report for work as quickly as possible. .Many crews that had been tied up at terminal points were notified by telegraph to resume their runs without re porting here. Slade and Lynch were dis charged more than a year ago when a car on their train jumped the track and bumped along the ties for three and a half miles They were discharged on the ground that they were negligent and violated a company rule and kcaused much damage to property The union officials replied that the accident was unavoidable and that no serious damage was done. For several months the com pany and union officials debated the proposition of restoring the men to work. A week ago, 98 per cent of the employes voted toj&trike if Slade and Lynch were not restored. Early today the first body of men ' walked out. From then on unil noon engineers, conduc tors, trainmen, telegraph opera- r. , , , tors ana tower . men - graauiaiy quit as .soon as the safety of the passengers ' would , permit. . "At noon it was estimated that 5,000 men were out and the entire system was paralyzed.. ; It was less than two hours after the last striker had left his work that Mr. Hanger arrived; from New York, began negotiations with . the two sides. Mr.Sims agreed immediate ly: to " an arbitration but union officials were firm in their demand. Within an hour Hanger decided arbitration was impossible.', i So he drew up an agreement grant ing the demands, obtained 7 Mr. Sim's signature and "the strike was1 declared ?off . a.', few; minutes later. No violence was reported as a result of the strike.- '," - . --W.' J. Blalock spent yesterday ni Vanceboro. ...... ' at night, 1st starts at, 7:30, , 2d about 9:15 o'clock. - - V ' , T.'

Want To Co-operate With New Bern In Erecting Memorial. Since the organization in this city several days ago of the Pala tine Memorial Association which numbers among its officers Sen ator F. M. Simmons, chairman of the Finance Committee of the United States Senate, and which has as its object the erection of a suitable memorial to the founders of New Bern, much more inter est is being taken in the matter and there is every reason to be lieve that the memorial will be erected within a few months. Miss Sybil Hyatt, of Kinston, a geonealogist of note is taking a marked interest in this work and is now securing a list of the descendants of the Swiss Pala tines who came to New Bern with Baron DeGraffenried. Miss Hyatt is making much progress in this work and has secured several names since leaving New Bern more than a week ago. The Kinston descendants of the Palatines will hold meeting om January 22, Thursday, at 4 o' clock at the public library to discuss plans for co-operating with the Xew Bern Committee which has undertaken the work of erecting to the Palatines a 820,000 memorial. A memorial at a smaller cost could not be considered because of the very great historical im portance of the immigration of the Palatines. Historians say that the landing of the Pilgrims is the only other event in American history which equals it in signi ficance. Mr. C. I). Bradham. is pre paring a history of the Xew Bern colony for the February issue of Carolina and the Southern Cross The geoncalogical data will also begin running in that issue. This is very valuable, because the Pala tines gave their services gener ously to the State, and many of the records entitle the deseendnats who are otherwise eligible, to membership in the Society of Colonial Dames. Daughters of the Revolution. Sons of the Revo lution and Daughters of the American Revolution, etc. Des cendants should enclose postage for reply when writing to geonea logist3. On the memorial to be erected will be placed the names of the descendants of the colonists, and it is very essential that every one who can trace their lineage back to that period, confer with Miss Hyatt who has this part of the work in charge. .
