The employees of the Principle
Forge Company are out on strike,
They quit work on Tuesday of last
week. The strikers state that
their grievance is that the Com
pany wants to put 80 lbs. more on
the forgemen for ton than they
have heretofore been obliged to
make. They have always made
2464 lbs. for ton to allow for waste
and trimming. They claim that
they are asked to add about 80 lbs.
more and do not think it should be
demanded of them for the same
money.-Record.
A serious railroad accident was

the engine of the express, which
was running at high rate of speed.
The engineer and fireman saw their
danger and fell back in the tender.
The cabin of the engine was wreck
ed and several coaches damaged by
being scraped by the shovel.
