Western Travelling Men Appoint
a Grievance Committee.
Te Arbitrate Differences Arts
ing With Railroad.
/ NOVEL DEPARTURE.
With Rock Island
Are Settled.
Travelling Men May Prove a Big
Factory in the Future.

The recent trouble between the
commercial travelling men who make
the territory covered by the Rock Is
land railroad west of Topeka, and the
Rock Island company, has led to an
action taken by the commercial trav-
elers by which they mean to prevent
such trouble in the future.
The Rock Island railroad company
took off the service of two local
trains west of Mcfarland. This action
resulted in forcing travelling men who
made the territory to drive from town
to town if they wanted to make more
than one town a day.
The travelling men made efforts in
every direction to have the service re-
sumed, but the Rock Island manage
ment was obdurate. They continually
refused to put back the trains. Final
ly travelling men began to boycott the
Rock Island They did not give it any
they could possibly help and they
gave directions that all freight shipped
to their customers should be billed
over another road than the Rock Is
land in every instance where it was
possible.
From this cause the Rock Island
suffered to a no inconsidera bic extent.
The matter eliminated last week at
nerciaI Travellers at Oklahoma City
when E. A. Johnson, supported by
the entire delegation of nearly two
hundred from Topeka, offered a reso-
luton advising the appointment of a
grievance committee whose duty it
would be to arbitrate difficulties arts
ing from any action of the transpor-
tatiOn lines.
The resolution was adopted. It is
a departure for the travelling men,
and it is expected that by this means
number of reforms will be made
possible.
The resolution calls for a commit
tee that should represent the grand
council in arranging all difficulties
that may arise between members Of
the grand council and transportation
lines in regard to passenger and
freight traffic. and it carried with it
an amendment to the bylaws provid-
ing that each subordinate council
should have a local grievance com
complaints of baggage and bus serv-
ice, hotel accommodate etc,
should be reported for investigation
and if this committee fails to get what
they want the matter is to be referred
to the grand council grievance COM
mittee for future action
The Rock Island management has
been led, it is said, to see the outcome
OF the shortsighted policy adopted by
them in taking off the trains which
led to this agitation, and have ar
ranged to keep them on the time
card.
The travelling men of Kansas who
went to the convention last week at
Oklahoma City threw practically all
OF the passenger business of this
to the Santa Fe and none
to the Rock Island.

YoAkuM MAKES COMPARISONS.
Says Southwestern Towns Beat Those
on HMI's Railroad


New York,May lib F. Yoakum chair
man of the board of the St Louis and

New York after a three weeks trip
time he spent in the new country now be-

record to be proud of, but think the
records quite as good.
For instance, compare the two records
following, the first being a list of Mr.
HIS towns from I'VE to ten years old, as
traffic centeTs and the second being a list
of a few Frisco towns. none of which has
been on the railroad map for four years

BAD TIME TO STRIKE.
G. f. Lape, Former Santa F'e Official,
Says Men Made Mistake.

Los Angeles, Cal, May 17-C. f.
Lape, for many years master mechan-
ic of the Santa Fe at San Bernardino,
is in the city. Mr.. Lape is now con-
nected with the Scully Steel and Iron
company, Chicago, and has just com
pleted an extended trip throughout the
east.
Referring to the strike at San Ber-
nardino in the department over which
he had jurisdiction, Mr.. Lape said:
Il am afraid the men have selected
an inopportune time for strike. The
railroads east are greatly reducing
their forces, especially in the mechani-
cal department, and there are hundreds
of idle machinists east of the Mississip-
pi who would like to go to work for the
Santa Fee"
Mr.. Lape says he is not familiar
enough with the causes to form any
conclusion as to the merits of the
strike.
