REDUCING THE FORCE.
Illinois Central Laying OFF Many Mer
at Waterloo.

Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque. May 9.-On account of the
poor condition of the business of the
Illinois Central railway company. the
ak has commenced to work and about
fifty men have been cut off at Waterloo.
The action of the officials is brought
about by the slack movement in coal
and many others of the important pro-
ducts that are continually moving. The
reports bear the news that the coal
dealers and consumers are well filed
up with coal. This Is found the case m
nearly all cities and towns of the mid.
die west, south and east. So meagre
are the profits to the company that d
course of economy was deemed advis-
able TO use. The latter reason caused
the discharges along the line. The
outlook is so bad that the railroad
men fear a serious drop If the crop
falls short. The hope is resting in the
crop If the yield is fairly we'll. the
officials will have an opportunity to
sigh and feel happy that it passed
over.
