EMPlOYES AND RATES
ItIs Feared That COngressiOnaIActiOn
 Would Reduce Salaries.

Chicago, April 27.-Mr. P. E. Conley. president of the Railway Employees Twentieth Century club of Illinois. speaking for the 1O6, ,00O railway em- ployes in that state, whom he repre- sents, said in a recent interview re- specting the proposed raduction of railway freight rates by the govern ment, and particularly by the Illinois Railway and Warehouse commission: Any forcible reduction of rates would. without doubt, result in retrenchment on the part of the railroad companies. About the first thing that would hap pen would be a 10 per cent reduction in wages. This would amount to $S1S,- 585 year to those 1O5.79 employees in Illinois alone to be followed by de- crease of service, such as reducing the help in freight houses, men employed in shops. number of trains run, men on the tracks, reduction of office forces; and in every way possible the ax would be applied.
 'It has taken the railroad employees since 1894 to bring their wages up to the present standard, and they do not feel that it would be fair treatment to them to have any legislation enacted which would destroy the work of all these years.
 When a railroad company has any thing to buy it is at the mercy of the person who is selling the article 1t wants. There is no legislation to pro- tect a road in this transaction, but when it has anything to sell, such as services, everybody tries to make 1t deliver his commodity at the lowest possible price, even though it be at a loss.

INVENTION MAY
CHANGE SYSTEM

The main objection of the United
Railroads to the installation of an un-
derground electric conduit system on
the antiouated Sutter-stree cable road
has been the cost that such a change
would involve This, according to a well
known electrical engineer. F. J. Crouch.
is obviated.
The three important things of prac-
tical value in the new invention are
the slight cost of change from cable to
underground electric. the short time
necessary to effect the change and the
possibility of easy joining with the
overhead systems. The old cable con-
duits may be used, says Mr.. Crouch. and
the old slot retained Several new feat
ures in electric railroading are also
added.
The scheme of the inventor provides
a loop steel wire running lengthwise
under the car in a grooved channel that
is charged with the motive power. This
channel is supported in the old cable
conduit on insulators and may be in
stalled in sections so that 1t will not be
necessary to tear UP the. entire line to
make the change. The loop of wire
trails In the groove. in a manner re-
versing that over the overhead trolley
where the grooved wheel runs along
the wire. In the former there will be
six feet of contact, while the latter only
has a small segment of the trolley
wheel.
Where the underground system ends
and the overhead might begin the car
can be switched, SO the inventor
claims, on to any other line by
simply raising an overhead pole with
which II is equipped. The cost of in
stallation is estimated by the inventor
at a trifiing sum compared with the en-
tire change of the conduits. A saving
is effected in the iron motive groove by
the fact that this cheap material of
fers more surface to the current than
the copper wire. The only other cost is
the laying of the main feed wire If un-
derground, or stringing 1t overhead.
The underground grooved rail is so
constructed as to be drained of
water, the inventor claims. Where
switches and crossings occur the
grooved rail ceases and a fiat plate is
substituted, over which the cable loop
glides while the wheels of the car fol-
low the desired track. With the new
system a series of cutout boxes are ar
ranged so that in case OF accident or
fire a particular block may be cut out
without stopping the entire circuit.
Mr.. Crouch expects his invention to
revolutionize electric road systems He
has working models which on minia-
ture tracks demonstrate its feasibility
and is willing to meet the engineers Of
the city or the United Railroads in dis
cussion and demonstration of it's work

ventor has taken his proposition before
