ALI Quiet on the Eastern Section.
PHILADELPHIA. Dec 81. 1873.

Your correspondent made tour Of the Pennsyl.
vania Central works to night and found everything
quiet. The order reducing wages had been posted
for some time. but attracts little notice. No pub.
lie demonstration has yet been made against this
manifesto, and the engineers are very reticent in
relation to it, but murmur against what they
term the injustice OF cutting down their wages
since the company's receipts will be 80 much
larger by the abolition OF free passes in the future
meeting, held in Altoona on Tuesday called
for cooperation from the Eastern Division. but the
employees on this section did not respond. The
officials here do not anticipate q strike, but think
afYairs will soon be smoOthed over. In the event
Of o strike the company will maintain its position
at all hazards, and new men viii succeed the old
ones as far as they can be had.
