of McCuen. He was dead. The body
was picked up and taken to the bag
gage Dom at the depot, where Coroner
Gray found it this morning. when he
went from this city at 1880 to hold all
inquest. The local officers were mott

Mr.. McCuen was 45 years of age
and was looked upon as a careful en-
ploye. He was bundled up in a heavy
overcoat and is believed to have drawn
the collar up about his ears as he left
the station to go to open the switch
to let his train out, and did nc realize
how close the approaching engine was
to him or that he was SO close to the
track. The remains were ordered sent
to Cheyenne when the coroner had fin
ished his examination and will be bur

APPEAR TO BE FINDING HOLES
IN THE NEW GAMBLING LAW
By THE DOZEN.
Claim That the Bill Was Not Referred
to a Committee When It Was In
troduced, But Went Directly to the
Committee Of the WhoIe-Was
Not Properly Signed, is Also
Claimed.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Jan. 31.-(Special
to The observation-disclosures have
been employed, funds raised and plans
outlined for an attack upon the gamb-
ling law passed at the last session of
the legislature, and which goes into
effect at the end of next month.
The points against the law have
been thoroughly gone over by the at
torneys for the gamblers, and they
seem to have made a rather large
hole in the structure. One point
against the gambling bill is hat it
was not referred to committee in eth
err house of the general assembly. but
went direct to the committee of the
whole house. Attorneys for the plant
IFS in the suits to be instituted assert
that this is in violation of the consti-
tuition Of the state. which provides that
all bills must be referred to the ap-
propriate committees of the two houses
respectively.
1t is claimed also that the constitu-
ton requires that the speaker of the
house shall sign all enrolled bills in
the presence of the house, and that this
action shall be recorded by the clerk.
This, attorneys for the plaintiffs will
contend m their onslaught on the
measure, was not done.
In this respect the Journal of the
house shows that the speaker an
nounced that he was about to sign
the following house bills"
Then follow in the Journal a num-
Der of house bills and also some sen.
ate bills. The gambling act was
among the senate bills, and it is not
stated at the end of the bills that the
speaker actually signed them, as
seems to be required by the constitu-
ton.
1t is further stated that to repeal
an act of the legislature, direct legisla-
ton must be had. and it is claimed
that in Douglas, Casper and Rock
Springs, coming in under the general
laws. gambling is permitted by direct
legislation, and that the law in their
case could only be repealed by direct
reference thereto.
Taken altogether. the gamblers will
be able to show a very strong case
when the matter Is brought before a
court.

SETTLED
QUESTION OF DIFFERENCE BE
TWEEN COMPANY AND
TRAiNMEN.
Changes Made in Wage Schedule AZ
Result Of Conference Between
Adjustment Committees Of Con-
ductors and Trainmen and Gener-
al Manager Observation-Disclosures
in Pay-Other Railraod Matters.

After a conference of sixteen days
with General Manager Dickinson of
the Union Pacific railroad the adjust
ment committee of the Order of Rail.
way Conductors and the Brotherhood
of Railroad Trainmen completed its
work with that official yesterday
afternoon and the members are now
congratulating themselves hat they
have finished their work before lnany
of the divisions on other railroads
have begun, says the Omaha Bee of
yesterday.
Several changes have been made in
the wage schedule. the most import
ant being that which gives the men
terminal overtime at the regular sal
airy rate, a perquisite not before enjoy
ed. If trainmen are called to work
and their train is delayed at the sta
ton more than an hour before leaving
they are paid for that hour and all ad-
ditional overtime.
Another important alteration deals
with the salaries of conductors on the
different runs, which are raised in diff
ferent degrees. On the Denver-Chey-
enne run the scale is raised from $110
a month to $500. On the stub run from
Kansas City to Salina, Kan, it is rails
ed from Sis to $12O. The Denver
Julesburg, Council Bluffs Beatrice and
Lincoln Manhattan runs are boosted
from 1920 to $125.
Pilots on snowplows will hereafter
work TO better advantage. They have
been working for 81 a day, regardless
of distance. The change gives them
four cents a mile in excess of 100
miles, and 81 a day anyway.
Another change gives men who are
de%adheading full pay for the time, in
stead of half, as has been the rule.
So now men who are travelling out to
jobs, Or returning from them. although
not in charge of a train, will get full
pay during their journey.
Besides this there Is a change in the
osolSHl VI pdSluS IuSL vi Woih III
This alteration, however, will not in
crease the remuneration for the work.
Aside from the wage schedule two
other important concessions were Sc
cured from the railroad. One vas the
reinstatement of ten men who had
been discharged during the last year
for different reasons. There were four
conductors. five brakemen and n
switchman.
The final move was the altering Of
the rule for the promotion of freight
conductors to positions as passenger
conductors. Heretofore each freight
district was given its promotion in
turn, but now the Oldest man in II
district covered by the run will be ad-
vanced when a vacancy appears.
These changes go into effect or Feb
ruary LIST and hold for two years.
