On top of all this came the presi-

delegatio is said to have reached the
White House through a statement
made by Senator Penrose of Pennsyl-
vania at recent Washington dinner
The alleged plan was to get delegates
under the guise Of Roosevelt third
termers and then throw them to a re-

in the game to capture the Democratic
convention for the same interests. The

danger point at speeds varying from
forty to seventy miles an hour. To

St. Louis Brewery Strike. ...
The big breweries Of ST. Louis were
obliged to curtail their output on ac-
count of the strike of the workers for
increased wages. The firemen walked
out in sympathy with the brewers. and
high salaried officials had to be i'm
pressed into the service with coal
shovels. The proprietors gave notice
that they would declare an open shop
II the men failed to return promptly,
but that they were willing to arbitrate
the question Of wages.
B. and o. Raises Wages.
On April l the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad made an increase in the
wages Of its employees amounting to
about 100000 a year. President
Murray, referring to the matter, said
the advance had been so apportioned
as to reward those employees who had
been most faithful and deserving. He
also pointed out that this increase
made it necessary for the road to add
to its revenues.
"Pennsy" increases Pensions.
It is reported from Chicago that the
Pennsylvania railroad, in addition to
10 per cent increase in wages, has
made arrangements to increase the
pension fund from $4,000 to 5000, 600
There are now 1,94O men on the COM

Railroad Strike Averted.
The long standing dispute between
the western railroads and the organ
izations of railway trainmen and rail-
way conductors was settled through
the efforts of Chairman Knapp of the
interstate commerce commission and
Commissioners Neil of the United
States labor bureau, they submitting
a proposition which proved accepta-
BILE to both sides. Under the terms of
the agreement the men are to receive
an advance in wages of 10 per cent. a
ten hour day in the case of men en-
ployed on freight trains and slight
