MOBILE AND OHIO RAILROAD CO.
Office of General Manager,
St. Louis, Mo, May 8, 1903.

St. Louis, Mo. May 8, 1903
To our Patrons and Public:
The Mobile and Ohio Railroad company
regrets to state that certain of its con-
ductors, who were members of a con-
ductors' organization, and certain of its
brakemen, who are members of the Broth
erhood of Railway Trainmen, have. with
out notice to the management as to time
or date left the service of this company
today giving their reasons therefor as
follows:
l. That no train of over thirty cars
loaded or empty, shall be run with two
engines without double pay ana uoupie
overtime, has been declined
That the percentage of increase of
paw as demanded by them has been de-
clined.
The MANAGEMENT separately met COM
mittees of engineers and firemen in Feb
ruary and March. and after discussion
amicably agreed on rules of service, and
a percentage of increase of pay. satisfac-
tory to the engineers and firemen and to
the company. no rule of management en-
tering into the conferences.
Rules of service and rates of pay for
overtime were mutually agreed upon by
this company and a committee represent
ing the conductors and brakemen, but the
company denied the right OF the employee
to dictate rule for the management Of
its property. and believing that the per-
centage of increase demanded by these
employees was unreasonable, likewise de-
cined it.
Since. April the conductors and brake
men in service on the same trains with
the engineers and firemen are offered and
are now being paid the same percentage

We're badly shaken up and frightened,
and Motorman J. T. Burroughs. on the
nOrthbound car, received a number Of
bruises and decorations, none of which
was serious.
The accident was due to the failure Of
the block signals to work. The track
is a single one. When Motorman Bur-
roughs reached block 2 he saw a white
light, indicating that the track was
clear. He therefore went ahead, at the
same time pulling the switch which
should have showed a red light at the
other end. little later Motorman John
Coffrey. on the southbound car, with
forty passengers bound for the Rockville
fair, reached the other end of the
stretch, but saw a white light also, so
he, too, proceeded.
When the motormen sighted each
other they applied the brakes with all
their strength, but the tracks were slip
perry, and the cars came together al a
speed of about seven miles an hour.
Neither car was derailed. but the plat
form On the northbound car was de-
molished. and Motorman Burroughs was
crushed between his car and the platform
Of the other. He went TO Georgetown

we're dressed by Dr. Owens. Fortunately

while at work In slaughter house just
opposite his home. He was leaning
through a trap-door into the ice box,
from the second story of the building,
when he lost his balance and fell. AS

caught by a four-pronged hook used for
hanging beef, snagging the calf of his
leg from the knee to the ankle.
The hook lodged in a muscle near the
ankle, and the unfortunate man hung
suspended in the air, head down, for
several minutes. Two workmen hap
pened to be in the slaughter house at
the time of the accident. who imme-
diately responded to Mr. Riley's cry for
help. When taken down from his pain
full position he was weak from exhaus-
ton. and loss of blood. DR.. Anthony NJ.
Ray. of Tenleytown, was summoned and
gave medical treatment. Mr.. Riley is a
brother of T. F. Riley. butcher in the
