APPREHENSION
IS GROUNDLESS
THERE WILL BE NO GENERAL RE.
DUcTloN OF WAGES OF
RAILROAD EMPLOYEES.
GREAT WESTERN SCALE
OF Wages Will Not Be Reduced BY
Receivers-Certan Regulations
OF That System Have Been
. Misconstrued.

Washington, Feb. 0.--Industrial and
! financial circles have been more oil
less concerned today over what they
regard as the prospect the railroads
'of the country have In contemplation
'of general reduction OF wages OF
employees
Such apprehension Ii practically
grc undless. Information which has
reached the interstate commerce com.
mission, particularly, and other on.
cials of the government who have di.
rect or indirect interest In industrial
and railway matters indicates clearly
that there Ii no concerted action on
the part Of American railways to make
general changes In their wage scales
at this time or in the near future.
Instances of proposed readjustment
of wage scales are cited In cases of
three or four southern systems. The
Great Western has been named as
likely TO reduce wages of employees
II can be said BY authority that the
receivers of that road have no inten
tion to reduce CT readjust wages now
in force.
II is explained that certain rules and
regulations obtain In the operating de-
partment of the Great Western which
are analogous and subjected. perhaps,
to two or three constructions. Owing
to the difference Of construction placed
on these regulations by the men and
by officials. a good deal ~ overtime
pay is charged against operating ex-
penses Of the line.
z Conferences bntworn tire receivers
and employees are to be held for the
of reaching definite under
standing as TO the effect Of these regu.
lations In order that, as far as pos.
sible, excessive overtime charges shall
be eliminated, No proposition has
been made by the receivers, 1t is
stated positively. looking to reduc
ion of wages.

JUSTIFIED. SAY EXPERTS.

Washington, Feb. 20.-The sentence
of Stoessel is regarded by American
military officers as the logical con
sequence both of the surrender of
Port Arthur and Russian Military dis
cipline. That the sentence is justified
is the general expert belief. The con
sensus of opinion Is that Port Ar
thur was surrendered prematurely.
Considerations which entered into
the military problem which Stoessel
had to face are summed up here as
embracing a choice between standing
cut TO the last ditch and in that way
keeping the besieging army engaged
and not free to strike at another
point. and surrendering because the
ultimate resui. was apparently hope
less.

no mine in the country today is there
such a production of the yellow metal
