TRAlNMEN SIGN AGREEMENT.
Controversy Between Western Roads
and Employees Settled.

Controversy Between Western Roads
and Employees Settled.
Chicago-The general agreement
which was reached between western
railroads and their employees in the
train service, through the mediation
of Commissioners Knapp and Neill,
has been signed, and the committee
members, who have been in almost
continuous session here for three
months, left for their homes. The
Brotherhood of Firemen, which has
been negotiating for practically the
same demands as the trainmen and
conductors, have about reached an
agreement with the roads. It is the
general belief that the firemen will be
granted the same concessions as the
conductors and trainmen.
Terms of the Agreement.
The agreement which goes into eff
feet dating from April 1 follows:
The pay of conductors in the PAS
senger service to be increased SO
per month; that of baggagemen $3.50,
and that of fagmen and brakemen
$3.50 per month, as applied to the
schedules in effect November l, 1906.
The railroads are not to make any
reductions in crews or increase in
mileage for the purpose of offsetting
the increased wages given the passen-
ger trainmen.
Overtime in the passenger service is
to be allowed on the basis Of 10 miles
per hour, to be computed for each part
Of the run separately. Time is to be-
gin at the scheduled time Of leaving.
Roads on basis of more than 10
hours per day for a helper or con-
struction train service are to make no
increase in the rates paid for such
service.
The increases granted in the aggre-
gate are to apply also to rates of spec
ial services specified in the individual
schedule.
Upon roads having a better basis
for a days work, or for payment of
overtime or other allowances in all
branches Of train service, the accep-
lance Of this agreement is not to act
as a reduction.
The Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen was also granted by the rail-
roads an increase of 10 per cent.

Loot in Stock Dealings-Attorney Gen.
oral Stead of illinois Fears the Pr
rates of High Finance Can't Be
Prosecuted by His state-stockhoId
ers Must Make Their Own Fight.

Springfield, H., April 9.-Attorney
General Stead, in an opinion submit
ted to Governor Deneen, expresses
doubt as to whether it is the province
of the state of Illinois TO proceed
against E. H. Hartman and his asso-
ciates for the alleged manipulation of
the Chicago & Alton railroad proper
ties. If the state should revoke the
company's charter the loss would fall
on the stockholders, the Hartman peo-
pie already having disposed of large
portion of their holdings. The attOr-
ney general concluCes, therefore, that
the best plan would be for the COM
pany itself to seek a remedy for the
situation, or even for one or more
stockholders TO act.
At the same time Mr.. Stead assures
the governor that should he become
convinced on further investigation that
the state can relieve the roads cOndi-
zion, he will take the necessary steps
at once. Notwithstanding his convic-
tons as to the wisdom of immediate
action, Mr. Stead insists there is not
the least doubt that civil remedy eX-
lists against the 'flnanciers who have
wrecked this prosperous railroad COM
pany, and, at the expense of innocent
stockholders AMI bondholders, have
gathered to themselves a harvest of
millions of dollars"

THE coEuR D'ALENE LANDS.
Protracted Surveys and Engineering
Problems Will Delay Opening
Until Next Year.

Information that is thought to be
reliable has been obtained at the in
terror department that the Occur
d'Alene Indian reservation would not
be opened this year. 1t was stated by
an official who has intimate knowledge
OF the facts that it would be impossible
to complete the preliminary arrange
ments, owing to the large quantity of
work yet to be done on the SURVEYS
and other engineering phases, and that
the opening must perforce go over to
1908.
1t is understood that this is the gem
eral belief among land Office officials,
Notwithstanding it has been stated all
along that the opening would be in a
short time.
1t is said people who await the open
ing with the expectation of getting
home locations in 1907 will be disap-
pointed.
