compared with the number on Jnne 80.
1898, of 80, 1914, or 1916 per cent. This is a
smaller number employed than in any year
since 1890 This decrease is, of course, due
to the heavy falling off in traffic and the en-
deavOrs of the railways to economic. On
the basis of four persons being dependent
on each wage Garner, it shows that over one
third of a million of people have been de-
prived of their regular means of support.
The class of employees showing the great
est decrease are trackmen, the decrease for
this class being 29, 443, or 1874 per cent: the
next largest decrease is 1880 or 1891 per
cent; for labOrers and other unclassifed en-
plOyees. The decrease in employees as
signed to general administration was 3,635
