FORCED INTO THE TRUST
Explanation of schenectady LOcOmO-

Special to The Journal.
Schenectady, N. Y, May 13-Tne
Schenectady Locomotive Works has de-
cided to join the trust of locomotive
manufacturers. The company will be re-
organized and the capital stock Will
probably be increased. 1t is known tnat
the stockholders have been reluctant to
join the combination. Practically all OF
the stock has been in the hands Of the
Ellis family for forty years, and the
stockholders have always felt that their
position as owners involved some obliga-
tions toward their employees and the peo-
pie of Schenectady. At the present time
the works are enjoying a period OF un-
exampled prosperity. 1t was pointed out
by the representatives of the trust that
the larger part of the output of the works
goes to the New York Central. Delaware q
Hudson and Northern Pacific, which are
controlled by the Morgan Vanderbilt
Hill interests. and that they could not
get orders enough to keep the shops run
ming a quarter of the time If they stayed
out of the combination. The works would
also be shut out from buying iron and
steel, could not fill whatever orders were
received, and the plant would be worth
only the value of the machinery sold as
old iron. In the face Of these statements,
which were given as an ultimatum, the
stockholders felts themselves poWerless.

RAILWAY. BONDS MISSING
THOSE OF THE OMAHA INCLUDED
David Hartshorn's Feelings Are
Fully as Strong as His
Name.

New York, May 13.-Lost somewhere be-
tween this city and the Pacific coast are
$SS, 900 in railway bonds, which David
Hartshorn of Brooklyn is anxious to ind.
Mr.. Hartshorn Is the administrator OF the
estates Of Richard Lauer and Caroline b.
Lotter. Mr. Lauer and Mrs. Lotter, his
daughter, were residents OF Brooklyn.
The former died on May 1, 1891, in San
Francisco. He transferred to his
daughter, Mrs. Lotter thirty-eight rail-
way bonds of the value of $1,000 each.
Mrs. Lotter was with her father at the
time of his death. She died in Brooklyn
on Nov. 10 last. The bonds in question
formed part OF the estate left by her, but
the administrator, Mr.. Hartshorn has
been unable to locate them. 1t is his be-
lief that some time before her death,
Mrs. Lotter deposited the bonds in some
bank or safe deposit vault, either in this
city, Chicago, Cincinnati, st. Louis, Kan
sas City or California. Mr.. Hartshorn
has recovered all the interest coupons be-
longing to the bonds but his efforts to
trace the bonds themselves have failed.
The missing securities are several first
mortgage bonds of the Texas & Pacific
Railway company; twenty-six first mort
gage bonds of the Chicago st. Paul &
Minneapolis Railway company, and five
first mortgage bonds of the Metropolitan
Elevated Railway of this city.

MACHINEST MAY STRIKE
Half Million Men in That Case
VIII Be Affected.

Washington, May ia general strike,
involving directly 100000 machinists and
indirectly 100000 men in metal working
trades, is expected to take place on May
20, unless some arrangement is effected
in the meantime. This is the statement
made tonight by President James O'Con-
nell of the International Association Of
Machinists, who has his headquarters in
this city.
The demands of the men, the refusal
of which threatens to precipitate the
strike, Mr.. O'ConneH said, are for
working day of nine hours and an increase
of 121a per cent in wages; in other words,
ten hours pay for nine hours work. The
matter, he said, has been under consid-
Grafton for some time, and every effort
has been made by the machinists asso-
citation to avoid resorting to strike, but
such action, he says, is now necessary
If the workngman is to attain the end
he is striving for.

MAXWELL AND DuNsMu1R
The Latter Charged With Playing
DoubIe-His Talk With Laurier.

Special to The Journal.
Vancouver, B. c., May 13.-George r.
Maxwell, M. P, has created sensation
here by declaring that when Premier
Dunsmuir went to Ottawa in February
he asked Sir Wilfrid Laurier and the do
minion government for $4,000 mile sub
sidy for an extension northward to Cape
Scott of the Dunsmuir line of railway on
Vancouver island. Mr.. Dunsmuir, says
Mr.. Maxwell, did not press keenly for
coast Kootenay or other subsidy LOT
British Columbia railroad extension
elsewhere To this Maxwell added that
the dominion government, which he sup
ports, will certainly give no subsidy to
the Canadian Pacific railway for line
to the Kootenay. The effort aided must
be a competing one. This resolve, II cor
roborated, will greatly please British CO.
lumbia in general.
Meanwhile Premier Dunsmuir has en-
phatically given the lie to Mr.. Maxwell
in regard to his statement as to the Island
railway and dared Mr.. Maxwell to ask
Sir Wilfrid Laurier to state the truth.
Mr. Maxwelrs assertion is fabrication,
according to the premier.

Redwood Falls, Mimi, May 1S.-When
the case of John Graham Of Minneapolis
vs. the Gulf G Manitoba Railway company
and other creditors, came up for hearing
in the district court, Bertha Dewey Fitch
Of Des Moines through her attorney.
Judge Bowers, intervened to the extent OF
asking the court to give her judgment for
Sc, 200 and interest against the railroad
company Mrs. Fitch loaned the company
that much money at one time, and the
officers agreed to not only let her have
stock for the amount, but also to make
her a one-fifth owner of the company.
The one-fifth assignment was made in
writing.
There are some ties and rails belonging
to the company, as well as the right Of
way already secured. 1t would be difficult
to obtain the amount of Mrs. Fitch's
claim from the sale of the entire assets
of the company, let alone the other cred
itors.
