Excerpt from Electrical News and Engineering, Vol. 20 The arbitrators appointed as a board of conciliation to settle the disputed matters in connection with the Winnipeg Street Railway Company and its four men who were dismissed for drinking while in uniform, have handed out decisions in the form of majority and minority reports. The majority report is submitted and signed by W. J. Christie, chairman, and Captain William Robinson, acting for the company. The minority report is submitted and signed by Mayor Peltier, of Port Arthur, acting for the men. The clause on which the decision mainly hangs is as follows: Entering any place where intoxicating liquors are sold as a beverage, while in uniform or while on duty, except in case of necessity. The majority report sustains the action of the company in dismissing four men for drinking while in uniform, claiming that the clause is clear and admits of only one interpretation. The minority report submits that the rule violated was not generally enforced and recommends the reinstatement of the men.
