REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Omaha. Neb., Aug. 17.-An important in
novation for operating employees of the
Union Pacific Railroad Company will be
inaurlrated on September |. 1t will be the
Introduction of the system of discipline by
record. and. after it's operation begins, the
suspension of employees from duty, with con-
seauent loss of time will be discontinued.
Instead of this practice. which has been in
vogue for wears on the Union Pacific sys-
TEN. discipline will be maintained by repri-
mand, book suspension or dismissal from
the service.
Under the system OF discipline by record,
these suspensions will be done away with
and "lay offs" by the operating employees
will be either voluntary on their part, or
else, If directed by the officials will be of
indefinite length. On September l in the
office of every division superintendent on
the Union Pacific a record book will be
opened. and every employe in the transpor
tation department will have an individual
account. For every case of neglect of duty
or improper conduct or violation of the rules
Il reprinand or suspension for certain
number of days will be noted against the
record of the employe.
If it be a suspension, actnal service will
not be required. The Suspension will remain
on the book charged up to the employe. but
he will be permitted to continue at work
drawing his salary without interruption.
The cancellation of these black marks on
the record is provided for. Good judgment
in emergencies, acts of heroism. loyalty to
the service and other meritorious conduct
will be made a matter of record. and given
full consideration In determining the stand
ing of the employe. The record will also
be taken into account when the question of
promotion in the service Is under considera-
ton.
An accumulation Of reprimands and sus-
pensions upon the record of any employe
Will be considered sufficient evidence that
no Is an undesirable man for the service
and dismissal will follow. AS heretofore.

REDUCTIONS IN TEXAS.
Commission VIII Not Enforce It's Or
der ON September L.


der ON September 1.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Austin, Tex, Aug. 1.-THE Texas Rail-
road Commission to-day recalled the order
of former date placing in operation on Sep
tember l certain reduced rates to apply on
State shipments from Texarkana to Texas
points to relieve the competition points
from the embarrassment of fighting Tex
arkana jobbers with the low interstate rate
now enjoyed by TeXarkana.
The order resembling the former low-rate
order grows out of the meeting held here
the early part of the week. on which oc-
casion the railroads announced that the
Interstate rates to Texarkana would be
raised. so as to give jobbers at that point
no advantage over other points in Texas.
1t is understood that the Commission will
issue another tariff very shortly to cover
the Texarkana situation. but what it will
be has not been made public as yet. 1t is
generally understood, however, that there
will be no such sweeping reduction in the
rates as that provided for in the order
which was to be put into operation on Sep
tember l and which was recalled to-day.
