seat about losing their railway shops,
We will say that, strange rs it may sp-
pear. says the Bee, San Marcial ia as
goods, business point today as it was a
few months ago, when the shops were |
full time with complete force |
of mechanics and helpers.
j. The cut a. En- poria of the force of
brakemen is the result of the slsck of |
business which causes the mems times |

spr ing, as it always does, and the COM
oany has to hire more men, these men
will then be given the preference.
