Expense Reduced.

Nearly $4,000 employees have been
discharged in the past three months
by the railroads terminating in Chi
cago. Most Of the men discharged
were in the maintenance Of way de-
partment.
In addition to the sum saved by dis
charging employees, nearly all of the
railroads have reduced their operating
expenses by decreasing the number OF
hours of work. AS a result engineers,
iremen and trainmen in many cases
are actually getting less money per
month than they did before the general
increase in wages last summer

deal for fourteen acres OF land at Tu.
cumcari to be used as terminals for
the Choctaw extension from Amarillo,
Texas. The land was bought from A.

that the Choctaw Extension on which

will be completed. Tucumcari is cor
