MOHLER As AN ARBITRATOR
Called to Help Adjust Salaries Of Western
Trainmen
MEETING TO Be HELD IN CHICAGO
Forty-seven Railroads Are Involved
I'm Deliberations Similar TO
Those Held with the
EzKfnemen.

A. L. Mohler. vice president and general
manager Of the Union Pacific, left Friday
evening for Chicago. where he win serve on
an executive committee Of railroad man
ayers, representing forty-sevsn western
roads In conference with the heads OF the
orders OF brakemen and conductors in
hearing their demands for better hours and
more pay.
This is the same sort OF proceeding which
has just been finished with the engineers.
who we're granted a substantial increase.
1t is no secret that much Of the credit
for the settlement Of the enginemens
trouble is being given to Mr. Mohler. He
it was who conceived the wisdom OF cul-
tivating public sentiment And when his
plows and harrows had finished their
adroit work. a surface Of sentiment was
found that was as smooth as glass and a
settlement was the easiest thing In the
world to reach.
Somebody f. I'm Error.
A conflict in reports comes from Denver
as to the remarks Commissioner Prouty
made after the meeting. The Denver papers
are making a great hullabaloo over the
victory for that city. The Associated
Press reports say that Mr.. Prouty said 1t
would be Impossible to make Denver a
basing point and that was the main point
at issue. The basing points from east
TO west are now at Chicago. the Mississippi
river and the Missouri river. No basing
points are made west of Omaha, for the
reason that Il Is impossible because of
water competition to the coast points. In
some cases the rates from Omaha to San
Francisco are as high as from New York
TO San Francisco, and II would be impossi-
BILE TO have a basing point farther west in
view OF these facts.
Denver wanted the rates 80 adjusted
that it could Job in Salt Lake City just as
well as the Salt Lake City jobber who
gets his goods in less than carload rates.
Gould starts His wires.
Enough OF the Western Pacific line has
been built by George Could to warrant Mr..
Gould's Western Union Telegraph COM
pany to get busy. Next week large force
OF men will be started on the construction
OF the sce-mlle line along that road.
Ordinarily thirty poles are used to carry
a mile of wire. but as the country between
Salt Lake and the coast Is 50 mountainous
and unusual. forty poles may be used to
each mile in many sections Of the line. The
original plan Of having the wire gangs
work ahead of the railroad builders was
deemed impracticable- 1t Is thought the
wire men will cover ground more rapidly
than the track gangs. Sleeping and board
ing cars are being fitted up and a good
stock of supplies gathered Material will
arrive constantly. and fast as II gets
90 salt Lake win be sent to the wire
camps. Five carloads OF poles arrived
from Idaho several days ago and more are
on their way. Sixty cars OF poles are now
coming toward Salt Lake from Michigan
Material enough to build nearly 15O miles
of telegraph wire is on hand. and daily
conRiRnments will be received steadily.
