Attorneys said to-day that they considered appeals unlikely. The cases are now all cleared up, including those brought two years ago and which were held up until those of last Fall were decided. In additiqn to the four cases announced yesterday six j were announced last night by Chair man Ainey, who wrote the Pennsyl- i vania Railroad opinions. Chairman Ainey also wrote opinions in complaints against the Baltimore and Ohio, Philadelphia and Reading and Central Railroad of New Jersey lines, in which he upheld the conten tion that dining car and cafe car con ductors could not be considered as traipmen or brakemen and ordered the companies to place in service crews of fix men, none of whom shall perform the duties of service of dining car con ductor. In the Baltimore and Ohio case he says "It is not an answer to the legislative mandate to say that the train employe ha? no duties or that he has plenty of time to perform other duties. Not only particular service, but constant watchfulness, is the rea sonable and proper requirement which may be expected of each member of the train crew.. In no other way can safety be secured. In order to comply with the statute a brakeman must be a brakeman all the time He may not be both at the same time. If we adopted the view advanced by re spondent, then we might be forced to accept the conclusion that one or more waiters in th'j dining car might be designated members of the train crew and thus wholly defeat the legislation under consideration." Commissioner Ryan dismisses the complaint against the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie Railroad, in which he holds that the train movenjent complained of is a switching movement. This case HARRISBURO TELEGRAPH Ladies of Rotary Club to Greet the Visitors Members of the Rotary clubs of Washington, Philadelphia, the Schuyl kill Valley, Reading, Pottsville, Easton York and Lancaster and their ladles will arrive in this city to-morrow morning, where a special train will be made up, leaving at 3 o'clock for the convention of the International Association of Rotary Clubs In Cincin nati, all next week.

Mr. Ryan finds in an exhaustive opinion that the company employs yard crews and pays them on a different basis than the road crews and they perform an en tirely different service. While some times as high at: seventy-five cars are in one train, the work is preliminary to the transportation of the cars or subsequent to their receipt and for purposes of delivery." The three yards mentioned, he finds, are practically one yarc^, In the complaint against the New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad, which crosses Erie county, Commis sioner Rilling dismisses the complaint. The question was whether the joint expressman and baggageman employed complied with the law. He says there is nothing in the law that requires any member of the specified crew to be an expressman, nor are the duties of a baggageman defined or limited. It is also found that their duties are of much the same character, they are not required to leave the car and the em ployment of an extra man is not held to be required. S. I\ C. A.
