NEW SCHEDULE TALK
Today Is the Date Of the Expiration Of
Central Maehinists' Schedule, Dis
agreement Over Which Resulted in
Strike Two Years Ago-Anticipat
No Trouble This Year.

Two years ago today occurred the
strike OF Central shopmen, resulting
from the failure to reach an agreement
on the schedule for the year ending
July ], 1903. Last year there was no
trouble ever the schedule, and with its
expiration today 1t is not anticipated
that there will be radical differences OF
opinion that will lead TO trouble. While
the 1904 schedule is as yet unsigned, 1t
is In the hands OF General Superintend-
ent Sweeney, who will meet the con>
mittee of shopmen early this month, or
after the return of Master Mechanic
w. O. Johnson from Saratoga.
one of the machinists of the COM
pany said Thursday night that he did
not think there would be any difficulty
this year in reaching an agreement. II
is likely that the old schedule will be
confirmed, with possibly some few
changes, particularly as to shop rules.
While the shopmen would like in>
creases in some departments they real>
ize that. this year is poor one in
which to make demands from railroads,
especially when roads like the North-
western and other large trunk lines are
curtailing all expense possible and lays
ing off help whenever they can
