The UnionEPacific Retrenchment in Denver.
The Union Pacific is pursuing the policy
of retrenchment with vengeance. During
the past week nearly two hundred men
employed at the shops of the system, in
Denver, have been discharged. 1t is Gus
tomary about June / every year to reduce
the force in the shops about 10 per cent
for the dull summer months, but this year
the officials seemed to have gone to eX-
tremes in cutting down expenses. The
shop men believed this year that there
would be no reduction of force owing to the
immense amount of work to be done on the
equipments of the road on the Colorado di-
vision. The road anticipates an enormous
traffic when business opens up in the fall,
and the shop men understood that full
force was to be kept on all during the hot
weather They were mistaken, however,
and the order has gone forth for the reduc
ton. Feeling as they did sach a sense OF
security, their surprise can be imagined
when the notice was sent out to reduce the
force 25 per cent. The reduction applies to
the South Park shops as well as those al
Thirty-sixth street.
The men who lose their positions are ma
chinists, boiler makers and helpers and car
wood workers.
Al the South Park shops about seventy
men were let out, and over one hundred at
the main shops. The reduction of tn,
force at the main shops really amounts tt
over 30 per cent.-NeUs.
