INCREASE WAGES
Some 5000 Men TO Get 10
Per Cent. Advance, or
Over $3,OOO.OOO

The Board of Directors OF the Pennsyl-
vania Company and The Pittsburg. en-
clnnati. Chicago and ST. Louis have auth
orized a 10 per cent. increase in the wages
Of all employees receiving under 500 per
month.
This win affect about 5000 employees OF
the Pennsylvania system west Of Pitts
burg. and will amount TO an increase IN
salaries and wages Of between SSOO)0ol
and S4oO0.OOo.
This action. taken at noon yesterday az
Broad street station, is in line with a ~
per cent increase granted by the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad recently amounting TO an
additional annual outlay Of S12,ooo,0Oo.
BY the action Of the Pennsylvania Com
panys directors continuance Of the
good relations between the employees of all
lines on the system is assured, il is con-
ndently believed.
No Steel Coaches Yet.
The report that the Pennsylvania Rail-
road has contracted Cor COO passenger
coaches Of steel construction proves to he
premature.
vice-Presldent Pugh said at the conclu-
SION Of the meeting thar an order for steel
coaches had not been placed.
1--WE are not altogether satisfied witt
the passenger coaches now in use. but 4
would be useless TO place orders at this
time. as they could not be filled. The
plants which now build steel freight cars
are not in shape to build steel coaches. 1t
will be necessary to enlarge end equip
the existing plants before this cou,d be
done"

CHEAP FUEL, LIGHT AND POWER.

TT WILL be surprising to most people of VIII
4 mington to learn that they are able TO buy
in this city the best quality OF coal for O. cents
less per ton than our neighbors in Philadelphia
are obliged to pay in their city The price here
is S6.I2 to S625 per ton, as against S6.75 in Phil
adelphia 1t is pleasure to make mention Of
this fact, because there has been an impression
existing among the people Of this city for long
time that they are imposed upon by the coal
dealers, and that they are compelled to pay more
Tor coal than do the residents of nearby cities.
in the matter Of fuel and electric light and power
Wilmington is greatly favored over other cities,
