RAILROADS LAY
OFF $4,000 MEN
MAJORITY OF THOSE DISCHARGED
WERE IN MAlNT ENANCE OF WAY
DEPARTMENT-NE EARNINGS
ARE DECREASING.

Chicago, January 5.--Fifteen railroads
in the general managers association of
this city report laying off nearly 1900
employees during the last three months.
While the majority of those discharged
were employed in the maintenance of way
department, this does not account for
those dropped on seven of the roads
which report mo reductions except those
incident to the winter weather, such as
reducing track forces and outside forces
generally, as is always the case at this
season of the year"
Some of the roads report that instead
of reducing their forces they have re-
duced the hours of men paid by the hour.
This has been rendered necessary by the
fact that expenses were increasing more
rapidly than earnings. Twenty-Five roads
In all sections of the country report that
while their gross earnings for November
last were 81 ,233 1853 over those of Novem-
Der, 1902, their expenses show an increase
of s2312,912, making a decrease of 81. 079 4S2

Jones and others.
Among the Early Arrivals.
One of the early arrivals for the meeting
was Colonel John II. Bankhead. the diS-
tinguished Congressman from the Sixth
district Colonel Bankhead has just re-
turned from a tour through the counties
of his district, and he seems to have no
fears as to his denomination for congress.
Asked as to the probability of the en-
trance into the race of Captain Richmond
Pearson Hobson, Colonel Bankhead re-
piled that he had heard nothing definite.
IT guess If he ever intends to run for
congress he had as well run against me
as any other man. Colonei Bankhead
concluded
Colonel Bankhead is an earnest advo-
cate of an early primary-that is a pri-
mary at some date not later than Aprli.
He expressed himself as favorable to the
early primary for several reasons, princ'-
pally 10 do away with too many elections.
IF we put of the state primary until
August. IL will mean that We must have
at least four elections during the present
year he added 1T has now become
apparent that the countries Will be unwiil-
ling to wait until August and In such
case II will mean one primary for county
officials another for delegates to the ma
tional convention still another for presi-
dent of the railroad commission supreme
court judges. congressman. circuit judges
and solicitors. Then later would come
the general election in November This
is too many elections. Another objection
to be offered is that in case of early coun-
~ primaries it would be difficult to get
