PAIRING FORSIRlKE
Jersey Central officials Expect Their

MANAGER WARREN'S VIEWS.
Says Employees Would be Untusu-
fed In Striking, but the Men De-
clare They Have Grievances
which Are Ignored.

New York, April 9.-The tension be-
tween the Central Railroad of New
Jersey and its employees is greater
than at any time since the present dif-
iiculties originated. The men are now
balloting on the question as to whether
they shall strike. Judging from all IN
dications, the officers of the road are
under the impression that the men VIII
decide to strike and are fortifying them
selves against such contingency
First Vice President Warren, who IS
the actual general manager OF the road
and who has the present diflculty III
hand would not deny that the ofhcers
of the company were under the impress
sion that the men would strike, prac-
tically admitting that the management
was making extensive and elaborate
preparations.
1t was reported that agents of the
company were hiring engineers. hre-
linen, conductors. trainmen ana tele-
graph operators in various parts OF the
lcountry and that these men were be-
ling quartered all along the line. MI.
Warren, when asked If this report was
true, would not deny ii.
"Would it be good business policy II
YOU were making such preparations,
he said. "to proclaim it from the house
toms? And isn't it also good business
Ipolicy to be prepared for whatever may
llappenT"
Statement by Warren.
Mr.. Warren said in referring to the
question as to whether the employees
of the road would be justified in stlik-
ing that. in addition to increasing the
pay of the conductors on Jan. l last,
he company had increased the pay OF
, the engineers and firemen on the big
, engines and also that of the switch.
, men This was done on the lst of Feb
! rlary last because, as Mr.. Warren eX
planned, the road desired TO pay tht
} prevailing rate Of wages.
| According to the statements of Mr.
: Warren. the employees of the roat
would not be justified in striking Il
+ tlis time as they are being paid a.
n much as il not more than men EN-
! poypd in similar capacities on neigh
o boring roads. The men do not see !
/. ii, This light ana maintain that the.
/. have many grievances which the otli
Il GERS of the road ignore and for whicl
d they have sought relief in vain.
Mr.. Warren intimated that the chief
nf the five brOtherhoods of railway en-
pluyecs had left here when they di
II because they found that the grievance
:. of the men were much exaggerated

FOOD STOPPED IT.

Good Food Worth More Than "A Gold Mine.
TO find a food that will put an alb
solute stop to running down is bet
ter than finding Il gold mine. Many
people when they begin to run down
go from one food to another and find
il impossible to find a food that will
stop the progress of disease. Grape
Nuts Food is the most nourishing
known and will set one right if that
is possible.
The experience of Louisiana lady
will be interesting: Mrs. j. II. Ora
ham, Wallace, La, writes: Il received
"a severe shock many years ago and
from overwork gradually broke down.
My food did not agree with me and !

one kind of food to another but was
unable to stop the loss of flesh and
strength.

crackers and lived on them for sew

One day l was brought knowledge

adding little butter.

was the lack of power to digest food,
and that no other food that he knows
of would have brought me out of the
trouble except Grape-Nuts.
