WESTERN RAILROADS AND THEIR
TRAINMEN ENDEAvoRING TO
SETTLE DIFFERENCES.
STRIKE DECIDED on IF NECESSARY
MEN OVERWHELMINGLY IN IA.
voR OF SUCH STEP SHOULD
DEMANDS BE REFUSED.

Chicago, March 27.-General man.
ayers of the Western railroads and
representatives of the Brotherhood of
Railway Trainmen and the Order of
Railway Conductors have commenced
what promises to be the final confer
ence regarding the demands for an in
crease of pay and a working day of
nine hours.
For several weeks the men belong.
ing to the two organizations have been
voting on the question of striking if
their demands are not complied with
and although the vote was not an
nounced prior to the commencement
of the conference it is understood to
be overwhelmingly in favor of a strike
if such a step should become neces-
sary. The general managers have in
formed the men that they are pre-
pared to offer a 10 per cent increase
in wages, but cannot grant a demand
for a nine-hour day.
Before the conference commenced
both sides expressed a rosy view of
what would appear to an outsider to
be a blue situation. The men insisted
that there would be no strike because
the general managers would concede
the demands that have been made on
them and the general managers said
that there would be no strike because
the men would abate their demands
and would accept the offer of the rail-
roads. Both sides expressed the de-
termination not to give way in any
particular. 1t is expected that the
conference will last for several days
and a definite outcome is not looked
for until near the end of the week.

AMPuTATED BY A SHARK.
American Sailor Uses Finger to Plug
Hole in Boat.

Washington, March PA curious
story illustrating the number and
ferocity of the sharks that infest the
harbor Of Manila is afforded by an
incident reported in the mail just re-
ceived at the insular bureau from the
Philippines. This is to the effect that
as n of the boats belonging to the
little gunboat Elcano was being rowed
out to the ship Feb. 8 the plug in the
bottom of the boat came out and to
prevent it from being swamped J. J.
Dunlap, a sailor belonging to the FL
cano, thrust his finger into the hole.
The finger was Immediately bitten off
as if it we're amputated by a surgeon,
though the amputation in this case
was by a shark. AS the lost finger
was used to pull the trigger of the
rifle the sailor will have to be retired,
being incompetent to perform his du.
ties.

power of the toilers is it cannot be considered
either gift or benefaction, for it is neither The
advance has been rendered necessary By the in
creased burdens placed upon wage workers by the
higher cost of living. 1t is the logical outcome of
an effort TO adjust wages to the conditions of
industry produced by period of unparalleled
prosperity.
Nobody need be told that for some time the
cost of the necessaries of life has been steadily
advancing. That fact has been established by the
personal experience of every Individual which
neither statistics abulated averages are needed
to sustain.
Today the wage earner's dollar does not meas
ure the same in the purchase of provisions cloth
ing, or in the payment of rent, it did few years
ago, while the measure of his labor in the profits OF
industry is much greater than it ever was before.
This advance i'll wages, which is concident
with the advent OF the New Year is but an effort
to even up an obvious disproportion That it does
not go as far as it ought to and that it is not as
as it should be, those dependent upon
fixed salaries realize with sadness. Nevertheless
even the partial adjustment of wages that has in
creased the earning power of hundreds of thou

CONGRESSIONAL SALARIES.

When congress resumed its labors yesterday,
after the holiday recess there can be no doubt that
1t was with a strongly developed sentiment in favor
of an increase in the compensation of senators and
representatives, proposition with which earlier
in the session the house had wrestled but through
fear, failed to pass
1t is now definitely understood that salary
increase will be provided for by the senate, which,
1t is said, will insert the necessary provision into
the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation
bill which is now in the hands OF that body.
The senate committee in charge Of the bill is
in favor OF advancing the salaries of senators and
representatives so per cent. Such increase will
hardly be in accord with the existing state of pub
lie opinion
True, the present salaries are not large, but
they are sufficient to afford proper and handsome
support, even in the city of Washington, where the
cost of living is known be higher than elsewhere
in the east They not it is admitted suffi-
cient TO permit participation i'll the social extrava-
gances common at the national capital but it
is not for such exploitation the American people
send senator's and representatives to Washington.
Nor should the question of raising the pay
of members of the senate and house be complicated
with that of increase in the salaries of the vice
president, the speaker of the house and the mem
bers of the cabinet provided for i'll the bill passed
by the house.
The work of these officers is continuous, eX-
acting and OF the greatest Importance TO the ma
ton. The compensation therefore. should be i'll
adequate and just proportion TO the responsibilities
undertaken and the value Of the services rendered
