ENGINEERS DEMANDS.
New Haven Road Officials Have Re
 ceived One of 10 Per Cent.

ceiyed One of 10 Per Cent.
 Present indications are that the New Haven road officials may have to grant a raise in the near future to the engi- neers and fremen on their system or be forced to meet strike conditions. The road has already had demands made upon it by the men and action is looked for either one way or the other very soon. The demands were drawn up by committee of the Broth erhood of Locomotive Bremen and Engineers and the Brotherhood of To comotive Engineers, in whose hands it had been left.
 There Is good reason to believe that a refusal will come from the officials. This Is because the demands are very large, a ten per cent raise in salaries being asked for. Added to this is the fact that the road officials are not feel ing very generous after the recent f. nancial stress that the road has had to go through with.
 On the other hand, 1t may be true that the men are but looking out for any possible decrease in their wages because of the financial conditions, thinking that if they are in the act of demanding more wages the officials will surely not decide to reduce their rate of wages.
 The mems demands have national character. Saturday the matter was discussed at a large union meeting of railroad men in Philadelphia, at which representatives of the local men were present.
 At present the passenger service of the New Haven road pays its engineers 3S1s cents and hour, it's hremen receive 22A. The way freight service pays about two cents more an hour for both engineers and firemen.

were vigorously applauding.
Other members of the troupe await

Signorina Giordano from the floor and
hurried her to a dressing room. She
was dead when they placed her upon a
couch. But the opera went on.
When the ballet was ended the

two and then went back to dance
and laugh again, while Signorina Ber-

her triumph.
