Railroad Employees Ap-

FEAR CUTS IN WAGES
These Men Represent the Great Labor
ORGANIZATIONS Connected With Rail
reading on the Big Systems. The
President Thinks They Have
nj Grasped the Situation.
lBv the Associated Press

Washington, ID. c., Nov. 14.-An
Earnest protest was made TO the Presi-
dent today against proposed railroad
freight rate legislation. The pro-
test was filed by representatives of
the great labor organizations con-
nected with railroading-the en-
gineers, firemen, conductors, switch
men and trainmen. The members of
the delegation which called on The
President represented the several or
eanizations. They pointed out to him
that railroad rate legislation logically
meant the lowering. Of rates. This
they contended will be followed by
a lessening of the earning power OF
the railroads and consequently by
reduction eventually of the wages OF
railroad employees.
The delegation which called on the
President came from twelve different
states and represented all the
larger systems of railroads.
George Huntley. of the Conductors
Organization, presented to tie Presi-
dent p statement of the character OF
the organizations represented and as
surea him that no faint of partisan
or political coloring existed in any de-
gree among the members of the dele
CATION.
Argument OF Mr.. Huntlcy.
Mr.. Huntley said in presenting his
statement:
One million and a quarter railway
employees have noted with concern the
tendency toward Federal legislation
on railroad rates. AS there has APP
peared no hint that any general IN
crease in the prevailing rates was con-
fn hal
that the other alternative must fol-
low. and a general reduction i'm the
earning power of our railway lines
would result
The sneaker declared wEh EN-
phasis that railroad employees were
satisfied that any legislation tending
70 reduce the earning capacity or
railroad lines. will in the same meas
ure. interfere with the prosperity ana
generally satisfactory conditions OF the
railroad employees.
Mr.. Huntley stated that it had
come To be the attitude of the adj
mifliStration and of prominen Repub-
licans generally that when a revision
of the tariff is made the changes
should be by its friends and not by
IS enemies.
we suggest" said Mr.. Huntley
that similar course be followed III

The Presidents Reply.
In response President Roosevelt as
sured the delegation that il was not
his purpose or the purpose of those
who favored railroad rate regulation
10 do anything that might injure the
railroads of the country or, incident

He said that it was his purpose thai

employees. should have perfectly fan
treatment He was of the opinion thai

mean a reduction necessarily in fall-
road rates and suggested that the
