MORE PAY DEMANDED
All Western Railroads Asked to In.
crease Wages Of
Trainmen.
10000 EMPLOYEES ARE AFFECTED
Strike VIII be Called Only as n Last
Resort, Says Chief
Clark.

Freight trainmen of the western
railroads received reports yesterday
from various cities to the effect that
all the lodges of the United Order of
Railway Employees had voted for the
filing of demand for higher wages.
This demand is to be made within the
next 80 days.
The United Order of Railway En-
ployes is an amaigamation of the
Order of Railroad Conductors and the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen.
both being organizations of freight
men. They have been voting on Il
proposition for an increase of 20 per
cent in wages.
Over 10000 Men Affected.
Every freight conductor and brake
man on the western roads over
10000 men in all - will be affected
At the present time all roads pay the
same, 3 cents a mile for conductors
and 2 cents mile for brakemen.
The organization has a contract
with each road. but this can be re-
opened on n 30-days' notice. and the
conference between the men and the
companies viii be held at the eXpira-
tion of that time. If the demands are
then refused the proposition to strike
must go to all the lodges on refer
endum vote, which will probably take
another 30 days.
The principal reason for the de-
mand is the Introduction of the mo-
guI freight engines and the long
trains. In the old days, with the
small engines, good time was made
and the wages were high. Under the
new system the trains stop at prac-
tically every station and the wages
of the men have decreased.
VIII Demand Higher Wages
Cedar Rapids. Iowa. Sept. 15.-E. T..
Clark, grand chief of the Order of
Railway Conductors, has confirmed
the statement that employees of all
railroads in the west will make a uni
ted demand for increased wages. He,
however, declared the present talk of
a widespread strike TO be ''unwar-
ranted sensationaIism." NO strike
will be called" said Mr.. Clark, until
all other means have been exhausted,
and then only upon n two-thirds vote
of the members of the organization
involved

Lengthening a ices Tongue.

Man is often blamed for driving to
extinction many sorts of beautiful
creatures, but the account is far more
than balanced by the amount of good
he has done for those animals which
proved useful and could be tanned.
Take the case of the bee The bee
ives by is tongue. with which organ
Ii is able to extract the honey from
flowers Now. bees tongue is natu-
rally about twenty-fifth of an inch
long. Clever beekeepers, bykeeping only
those bees with naturally long tongues,
have succeeded in lengthening the
tongues Of Il number of bee colonies
to the extent of another hundredth of
an inch. 1t does not sound much, but
ii enables those insects to do a quar-
ter as much work again i'm the same
time.
Man has done more than this for
bees. He has given them ready made
homes. where they are safe from wasps
and other enemies; frames for making
their combs without using large guam
titles Of wax for outside walls, and
food during fowerless weather.
