CUT BOTH TIME AND PAY.
How Pennsylvania Railroad Officials Pre-
vented q Strike in Their Shops.

vented Strike in Their Shops.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Sept. 5.-The machin-
lists and boiler-makers employed in the
shops of the Pennsylvania Railroad
were considerably surprised to find
notices posted stating that hereafter the
nine-hour day would be adopted at the
same compensation per hour as
before. The men employed in
the boiler and machine shops had
presented petition for nine hours,
with pay for ten hours, which had been
refused. There had been strike in
contemplation, but the company nipped
this in the bud by cutting down the
hours of work and pay. The men
were surprised but not entirely dis
pleased. They are formulating a
petition for presentation, asking
to have an advance in wages.
The company's officers announce that
the low rates now in vogue for trans
porting freights demand that there shall
be a retrenchment of operating ex-
penses, and that the reduction of hours
was deemed better method of reduc-
ing expenses than by dis1nissing men
from employment.

At New York, on the 1st, the meeting
of brick makers was the largest and
most important yet held Manufacture
ers representing an output of
100000 bricks were admitted
to the association. The question
discussed was the withdrawal of all
supplies of brick to the city, and
vicinity, including even those under
contract. These contracts were made
by eight manufacturers, and call for the
delivery of about 20,0OO,OOO bricks per
month. Six of these manufacturers
agreed to withdraw, and the association
decided on taking the step if the other
manufacturers under contract would
agree to it. 1t is therefore expected
that the entire supply Of bricks, as far
as the members of the association are
concerned, will now stop.
