Although the meeting of Rock ISL
land superintendent here this week
did nothing toward the inauguration
Of additional train service on the
Amarillo division of the road, it is
stated that the putting on of an ad-
ditional daily train Is still proba-
bility. The distance from Amarillo
is such over the Rock Island east
that a fast train from there to St.
Louis over the Frisco could beat all
present schedules over other lines
into st. Louis by many hours and
could make connections with fast
eastern trains which are not now
possible. Arrangements of the same
kind could be made TO give train SER
vice to Kansas City which would
compete with the Santa Fe, and con-
nections at Bl Reno could probably
be arranged so that the Rock Island
from Fort Worth to Amarillo and
Panhandle points would compete in
time with the Denver. Such ar
rangements, however, are not likely
now to be attempted before spring.

Equalization of. wages is the move
ment in which every railway mail
clerk in the United States is enlist
ed and the recent banquet at the
Albany hotel was a part of this ma
tional movement.
Railway mail clerks are classed
and the pay varies according to the
class, and it frequently happens that
one man in the same class is out on
the road only one day or one night,
and another is out two or three days
and nights. Naturally the expenses
of the first are less than of the
second. What the clerks are seek
ing is a payment Of their expenses
when on the road.
The clerk is a low paid expert.
These facts were brought out at the
Albany banquet by George H. Fair,
president of the Seventh division Of
mail clerks, living in Topeka, Kan,
the division including Denver.
During the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1905" said Fair, "out of
