WANT TO KNOW WHY MEN ARE SUSPENDED ON LINE The Subordinate Officers, it is Al- leged, Are Overbearing -- In- vestigation Wanted -- Should Encourage Construction. Toronto, Oct. 27.--Friction has again risen between the officials of the street railway company and the employees due, the men says, to the over-bearing and hostile spirit shown by a few of the subordinate officials, ever since the strike in the summer. The latest diffi- cultv has arisen over the stigpension of four men all of whom were promin- ent during the strike and two of whom are old employees of the company. No reason for the suspension is given in some of the cases, and those given in the others are the men say, so meagre as to justify a demand on the part of the men for an investigation. This investigation will be demanded at the hands of the company at as early a date as possible. Hon. A. G. Blair, minister of rail- ways and canals, who has arrived here after a trip through western Canada and the western states savs there is scarcely a possible limit in his onin- ion, to the development which bound to take place in the Canadian west.
