Z Increased wages Of all switchmen be-
longing % the Switchmens' Union of
North America III the Pittsburg dis.
trict was inangurated during the morn.
Ing. Reports have NOT been received
from al the yards but the ofacials Of
the union say It affects every road en-,
tering Pittsburg except the Pittsburg,
Fort Wayne and Chicago, and the
Pittsburg. Cincinnati Chicago and ST.
!. Louis. There are between 600 and
1900 members OF the local organiza.
ton and the union ofiicials claim that
the response was general.
In their demands the switchmen
asked for the endorsement Of the
standard scale of wages. This calls
for ~ cents an hour for day foramen
and conductors, the night men to re-
ceive 2 cents more per hour, their
! work being more dif1cult and danger
Gus. Under the new schedule the day
helpers and ibrakemen are rated at 25
cents an hour and the night men at 81
4 cents. The switchmen claim that the
tonnage handled by them in this city
is much greater than that handled by
other men In other cities.
1t is learned that the strike not only
affects Pittsbnrg, but McKees Rocks,
McKeesport, Braddock and adjacent
territory. But the railroad officials be-
lieve they will be able to cope with the
situation and that with the assistance
of the Brotherhood traffic
WIN Not He Materially Affected.
There has not. however, been time
in the history OF the city when traffic
in and out Of Pittsburg was so heavy.
The yards are badly crowded now. The
strikers say they are overworked on
this account and that they are forced
to work overtime to keep cars in mo
ton.

ter of The Swit itchme erstt Union of North;
America, stated that the ofiicials CT
the Monongahela Connecting Railroad
company had signed the new schedule
Of the switchmens' union and would
handle no foreign freight until the dis
pute is settled. He said further that
the Monongahela Connecting people
were the first to sign the schedule and
that 1t was the expectation that sever
al other roads would be in line before
the close Of the day.
The switchmens union has no mem
bers In the Pittsburg. Fort Wayne and
Ohio and the st. Louis yards and busi-
ness was reported as going as usual
there. The strike is causing some
trouble In the yards of the Pittsburg
and Western and Allegheny Valley
roads, however, but the railroad Off
cials say they expect to have traffic
moving as usual in a short time.
Special trains with detectives ar
rived from the East and West during
the night and the detectives are on
duty about the yards. None of the Of
ficials would say anything albout the
men and II is possible many are
switchmen instead OF detectives.
