BALDWIN WORKS

The Working Force
Reduced Over
One-Half
LACK OF ORDERS CAUSE
Unless Business Becomes
Better Complete Suspen-
sion is Probable.

Philadelphia Feb. 5-Ten thousand
men have been laid off since last De.
cember by the Baldwin Locomotive
Works in this city because of lack
OF orders for engines. Samuel A.
Eaucain, a member of the firm, today
speaking Of conditions ar the works
said:
No substantial orders have come
IN since December. Where as we for
morly turned out about sixty locomo.
tives Il week We are now turning ont
only twenty and in a short time will
have finished up all our work. Then
unless we receive some substantial
orders in the meantime we will have
to close down entirely. Our full
working force is about $4,000, but
lack OF orders has compelled us to lav
OIL 10000 workmen since December.
The heaviest layoff started about Ian
uary L."
When asked the reason for this he
replied:
1T is because of lack of orders
not only from American but Euro
pean sources. Japan Is in financial
trouble and is sending us no orders
at all. 1t is the same everywhere.
not only in America but in the coun.
tries from which we have heretofore
received orders"

Mr.. Webster was endorsed by his

he has never lost his interest or his

ton of Alexandria Hamilton. ever had
more difficult and varied duties to per-
