'PENNSY'' WILL
PAY BRAKEMEN
But Only for the Time in
Which They Act AS
Firemen
GENERAL MANAGERS BULLETIN

Although there Is much talk OF strike
along the lines OF the Pennsylvania
railroad today. so far no developments
dn that direction have occurred and the
probability OF trouble with the Brother
hood OF Railway Trainmen seems TO be
lessening.
General Manager w. w. Atterbury
OF the Pennsylvania railroad, this
morning issued a bulletin to the vari-
ous supcrlntendents OF the branch di-
visions of the road 10 the effect that
whenever the services OF a head brake
man were needed to assist the regular
fireman on freight trains that said
brakeman should receive a hremans
pay during the time he acts as assist
ant, be II for a long or short period.
The difference an a hreman's and a
bral0eman's wages every twelve hours
Is 55 cents Dividing the difference by
twelve Mr. Atherhury offered TO pay
the brakemen 4 7-12 cents for every
hour they are required TO fire.
Mr.. Atterbury refuses, however, Ia
pay brakemen a fireman's rate Of pay
IN addition 10 l1ls own wages for the
hours he Is required TO fire.
This proposition Mr. Atterbury be-
lieves to be a fair one and one which
should meet THE approval of the
Brotherhood The proposition Is under
advisement by the adjustment commit
tee of the order.
Ten Thousand Men Affected.
Ten Thousand men employed by tn,
Pennsylvania railroad are affected bs
the situation. and az a strike Is de.
clared all employees of the road, mum.
berng more than 100000, may bl
brought into the contest lf prolonged
The first orders for a strike would cal
out every brakeman, yardman, bag
gagemQn and many conductors o.
/ freight trains. Officers OF the railroas
company and many members OF Othe
labor organizations connected with thi
railroad believe the strike will be avert
ed and that peace win be declared be
fore tonight.
w. c.. Lee. first vice grand master o
the motherhood, says:
"A company in thi
country OF Canada has ever asked
brakeman to fire a locomotive. On al
other lines flremen and brakemcn ar
carried in separate lists. Il Is the dc
sire Of the Brotherhood men that the
be kept in separate classes.
"The whole trouble originated In IN
laying of of a forward brakeman O
each crew by the Pennsylvania rail
road some months ago. Before tha
time the company's freight crews gen
orally consisted Of one more brakeman
than the number carried by other rail
roads. When that was the case tn
trainmen made no objection TO tn
practice OF the front brakeman assist
ing the flremen. but when the extr
brakeman was taken off the mel
raised serious objection TO IT,
1.-THE objection is very largely du
TO the fact that the brakemen dress d
withstand cold weather, and when the
are compelled TO alternately fire an
brake they subject themselves to tn
risk of contracting pneumonia or, q
the very least. heavy colds.

APPOINTMENT OF M'FARLlE
Democrats Say That il Should be Con
firmed by the Senate.

It was stated here today that some
Democratic politicians are challenging
the legality Of appointing Robert Nc
Farlin as Levy Court Commissioners
Of this county, because Of a tie be-
tween McFarlin and his Democratic
opponent, John w. Morrison. They
question whether it is a lawful mem
Der of the court.
The Constitution provides that all
appointments Of the Governor, where
the salary is more than $500 a year
shall be confirmed by the Senate. The
law also states that, in case Of a tie, the
Governor shall make the appointment
to Office. and It is held by some that
this appointment does not need action
