BALTIMORE AND OHIO CHANGES
Important Instructions Issued Ia
Employees New Regulations for
'Ernin Hands,

Baltimore Gazette, Aug. 2.
After the freight-tran hands struck on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, many OF
them stated at various points along the
line OF the road that the main cause for
dissatisfaction was not the ten percent
reduction in wages, but the fact that
there was not enough work on the road
to employ the whole force on full time.
If they could obtain six days work each
week, or be assured OF even five, they
could live on the wages, even when re
duced ten per cent; but they thought it
due to them besides that they should be
allowed free transportation from one div
ision back TO their own when not en-
ployed, as otherwise they were obliged,
besides paying their home expenses TO
pay in addition their board at the other
end of the division, while waiting there
for freight. Another demand was that
if they should be called out for service
and detained for two or three hours before
their train was ready to move, they should
be allowed for the time thus lost. Mr..
Keyser, in his addresses here and ut Key
ser, distinctly promised that, IT they
would return to work, these matters
should be looked into, and, SO far ne 1t
was possible, should be remedied. Most
of them finally accepted the situation,
and believing the statement, went back
to their posts Those who refused were
discharged The following regulations
remedying the evil complained of went
INTO ett,c: yesterday:
A force sufficient to do the work of the
road will be maintained, but no more.
Each engine in use will have regular
crew of hands OIL each division. Houses
are provided at the ends of each division
ION the Main stem at Msrtinsburg, Key
ser, Grafton and Wheeling), where the
crews may stop when waiting for freight.
Crews not required at the further end of
q division may, If they desire, return to
their homes and for this purpose passes
will be issued to them. No calls will be
made for crews ut the division termlni
sooner than one hour before the train is
TO move.

All alike neglected lie.
All, the rich have little knowledge

Scarce place 10 lay their head.
Yes, with hunger, what pity,
Hundreds die in our great city.
See the poor, but honest workman.
Oh, no gladly would be toll,
out Of work and nearly starving,
Yet from crime he'll still recoil.
Think of the happier future,
Brighter days that are In store,
Meanwhile tho he struggles, scarcely
Keeps starvation from his door
Thousands ow, Oh what pity,
Out OF work In our greet city.
Next the thief, our eye distresses,
AS we on our journey go,
SulIenness his face expresses,
Poverty has brought him low.
Perhaps his first crime he repented,
Sought for work, bat sought In vain,
All from him have turned with loathlng
. SO 10 live, he steals again.
Crime or hunger, what pity,
Twas his choice In our great city
