INACCURATE AND
MISLEADING
Are the Stories Of the Movement Among
Trainmen for a Raise
in Wages.
CONDITIONS ARE CHANGED
The Men Are Considering the Proprsty Of Asking TOR
Additional Compensation but II Anything Is Done
II Will Be- Along Orderly

Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 15.-Grand
Master p H. Morrissey of the Broth
erhood of Railway Trainmen. today
authorized the following official state
ment: '"The different stories that are
arising, pertaining to a movement on
the part of the conductors and train
men in the western country for raise
of wages, are in the main Inaccurate
and misleading. They probably grew
out of the fact that an association of
the general committees of the Order of
Railway Conductors and the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen for this
territory, was formed at Kansas City
in June, at which time the question of
an increase of pay for the men in the
train and yard service was discussed.
1t is the general belief among the men
in these capacities that, on account of
the vastly changed conditions now as
compared with those in existence at
the time the present wage standards
We're made, they are entitled to some
additional compensation, and they are
now considering the propriety of ask
ing for it. But if anything is done
through these organizations in this di-
rection, it will be along orderly lines
and in accordance with the long estab-
lished policies and laws of the bodies
affected"

ore in sinking shaft on the San

fair gold values.
D. B. Randall, in charge of work on

met from all parts of the territory to
witness the ball game and enjoy Las

up to expectations though, falling short
nearly half Ration was the first train
in at 10:45. bringing II people from up
along the line in 8 coaches and bag
gage. Albuquerque was only a couple
of minutes behind and brought in 312,
including the fine italian band of that
place. Santa Fe did not arrive until
noon, and brought up close to 400 includ-
ing 10 from Cerrilos and Madrid. The
band from Santa Fe was also with this
crowd, and the hammered cars caused
considerable amusement. The crowd
totaled S29, and they were accommodated
by the eating houses with room to spare.
A concert by the 25 piece Las Vegas
band in the beautiful plaza in old town
was on from to 3, then the ball game.
The Elks, the Woodmen of the World and
the e. Romero Hose company kept open
hungry and thirsty all day The game
was nOu u well playeu oue anu NeSdS
won, not because she really deserved to
but on account of the poor game put up
by Santa Fe. The Santa Fe club is
beginning to realize that reputation
will not win games but that it takes
practice. That the score 8 to 8, was so
close is not to the credit of Vegas for
Santa Fe should have been defeated
