RAILROADS PLAY A GRAB GAME.
Pay Demanded for Carrying Troops to
Protect Their Propertv.

Washington, Nov. 20.-During the recent
strikes many railroads applied to the gov
ernment for protection and troops were
placed on trains and along the disturbed
portions OF their routes. Now the COM
panies who availed themselves of the
troops for the protection of their property
are hling bills with the war department
Tor the transportation of the soldiers
whose chief duty was tc keep their lines
open ana guard their property. Nothing
II is asserted, was said about charging for
carrying troops at the time they were
asked for, and It was supposed that the
roads would transport them free of charge,
as their services were chiefly needed in
supporting the interests of the roads This
however, is not the case, and the railroad
companies now want pay for carrying the
men who protected their property. The
war department opposes the payment Of
the charges, and it is likely will contest
the claims in the courts The department,
II is said, Will raise the point that, as the
railroads sought protection of the troops.
they have no right to regard them as ordi-
nary passengers.
