Railroad Men Making Many Changes
in Their Schedules.
Railroad men are interested in watch
ing the development of the idea that in
creased speed on passenger trains Is be-
ing called for by the public. Along with
the announcement Of the 20-honr trains
by the New York Central and Lake Shore
comes the further announcement of fast
er trains than ever before for other sec
tons of the country.
The new daily 20-hour flyer now in
service over the New York Central and
Lake Shore is known as the Twentieth
Century" train, and only passengers for
Chicago and points west thereof are car
ried on the west-bound train. This train
is illuminated by both electric and
Pintsch light and the entire equipment
is the finest the Pullman Company can
furnish.
A railroad man in discussing the situa-
ton as shown by these and similar
changes in the Northwest and West gave

And we're sure to have awful wealth

Or, maybe, all three together;
But. while his spirit is overcast .
With the gloom of his dull repining,

And, 10! the sun is shining.

And is bound in an evil fetter,
But the blue-sky man comes bringing a

Whose hands are hcaped with the purest

What the Fight Means.

one, victory to belong to the side which
can hold out the longest On the face
of it, it would seem as though under
such circumstances the strikers would
lose. But appearances sometimes de-
ceive. The strikers ave united, firm and
determined They can live on little. They
have the sympathy of the business inter
ests throughout the anthracite region.
They will have the material aid, when
asked for. if organized labor everywhere.
Fully $4,000 OF them have left the coal
fields since the strike began and have
found work in other occupations, thus en-
aiding the union leaders to better care
for those who remain.
On the other hand the cessation of work
means a loss to the coal carrying and
coal mining roads of $10,000,U00 a
month. This is considerable item even
in an age like this, when men talk in
millions. Perhaps the roads after an
other month may come to consider this.
The miners seem determined to remain
out until they win. For the union it is
not now a mere fight for per cent: it
is a fight for the future and a fight for
their existence. Stubborn as are the
operators, the miners are equally reso-
lutte. With their own resources they feel
confident that they can remain out four
months.
Meantime a new element has entered
the stuation-the soft coal strike in he
two Virginiss. where nearly 10000 men
are idle because of the refusal of the
bituminous operators to grant an increase
in wages. If this strike succeeds; il
President Mitchell and the other leaders
in the United Mine Workers Uuion sue
coed in cutting off the supply of soft coal
to the eastern markets, thereby forcing
the shutting down of mills and factories
and railroads, they feel confident that
enough influence will be brought to bear
upon the operators to compel them TO
make such concessions as will end both
strikes. The two Virginias mine 1000
600 tons of coal monthly. and this, with
the output of the soft coal regions of this
State, supplies most of the eastern trade.
BY cutting this off, the industries of the
East would be paralyzed. But srch a
pressure would be brought to bear upon
the operators that a settlement could not
long be deferred.
Peace Not Ypt Abandoned.
All hopes for settlement OF the trou-
bic have not, however, been abandoned.
Under instructions from President Roose-
welt an investigation into the whole mat
ter is being conducted by Carroll ID.
Wright, United States Commissioner of
Labor. 1t should, however, be stated
that Mr.. Wight is not clothed with the
jurisdictioR-of an arbitrator, nor can Mr..
Roosevelt take any official action. The
President. however, can informally seek
relief from the present situation and he
is now employing every resource in his
power.
Meantime President Mitchell holds in
allegiance the call for a national conven-
ton Of all coal miners, in which the ques-
ton of a national strike is to come up.
This is the measure Of last resort.

The operators still remain unmoved and
unbending. The strikers remain hopeful
the prospects growing greater each day
that their sufferings viii become more in

The magnates have over half billion
dollars invested in their mines, and yet
many of these mines are being flooded
and ruined because, while willing to pay

The situation now may BE briefly sum

in the coal regions is tied UP. Many Of
them are being allowed to fill with water
and men cannot be obtained TO pump
