THE AFTERNOON MEETING.
A Statement from President Conderman
of the Railway Company.

Statement from President COnderman
of the Railway Company.
President Conderman, of the Com
pany, was seen after the dissolution Of
the joint meeting of the afternoon, and
said
1--WE met with the citizens commit
tee and the committee of employees
with the view of discussing the differ
ences existing between the former en-
ployes and the Wheeling Railway
Company. | asked our employees II
they had any grievances as employees
of the Wheeling Railway Company,
and if so, to state them, so we would
have something definite to consider.
They said in response that they wanted
twenty cents an hour and nine hour
day l then took up the wage list OF
the various cities of the country CT
like size. and found that the city Of
Wheeling was paying at least as much,
if not more, than any city east OF the
Mississippi river of like size, and
stated that | did not see what good
reason there was why motorman or
conductor in the city OF wheeling
should receive any more5 pay for the
same work than in any other. In
Philadelphia they pay 16 2-3c per hour,
and in Baltimore, l believe, 151zc.
wish to call your attention to the rates
paid in other cities. Here is tabu-
lated statement of the wages paid in
cities of $4,000 population or less. Out
of these cities, eleven pay an average
rate of less than we are paying; in
one it is the same, and in two 1t Is
but a trifie more~,The next group OF
-,- e,o,.S ca 00n r., TE n00 r,onr1-
lation. There are eight in all. OF
these three pay less than we do, two
pay the same, two pay one cent per
hour more, and one pays zoe. The lat
ter city is Hartford, where they have
sixty-four cars running, so you can
see their receipts are large. The next
group is composed OF cities running
from $4,000 to 100000 population.
There are seven of them. OF these, four
pay less than we do, and the entire
group will not average more. OF these
cities, Reading, Pa, pays lie, and SO
does Nashville. Next We come to
cities of from 100000 to 100000 popu-
lation. Atlanta pays he, Scranton,
Pa, 121ac to Ice, Columbus 151ac to
1910, Worcester 12c to 171ac, Provi-
dence 1870, indianapolis 14c to Ice,
running one hundred and twenty-six
cars, and so on OF cities having a
population of more than 100000, Louis
vile pays 1910, Milwaukee Ice to 19c,
Newark lac to Is 2-3c, Buffalo 15c to
1Sc, Cincinnati 1910. Cleveland 1Sc to
zoe, Baltimore 14.6c, Boston 221ac, and
ST. Louis motormen zoe and conduc-
tors 19c.
II then went on to explain to the
men that our Company could not pay
more. We have no sinking fund, and
have not paid exceptional dividends.
During three years our dividends have
been AZ per cent and for the previous
two years they were nothing, so the
average for the five years has been less
than per cent. / also stated that
when I came to town this morning !
heard it had been stated that was
drawing a salary Of $4,000 per year
as president Of the Company.
thought it well to acquaint the boys
with the fact that I did not receive !

People become afIicted with plies
and ask some old Chronic" who
has always persisted in the wrong
treatment and naturally discour-
ages them by telling them that
their case is hopeless.
They in turn discourage othern
and thus a disease that might in
every case be cured by careful and
skillful handling is allowed to sap
the energy of thousands who
might free themselves OF the
trouble in a few days.
Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the
most aggravated case of hemorr-

time. 1t relieves the congested
parts, reduces the tumors instant

or itching at once.
Thousands who have resorted to
expensive surgical treatment have
been cured by the Pyramid Pile
Cure-in a number of instances
persons who have spent months in
a hospital under pile specialist.
1t is remedy that none need
fear to apply even to the worst ag-
gravated, swollen and inflamed
hemorrhoidal tumors.
If you are afflicted with this stub
born disease you can master it and
master it quickly.
This remedy is no longer an ex-
pertinent, but a medical certainty.

popular pile cure the country has
