200 RAILROAD
MEN LAID OFF

At the Todd's Cut shops Of the Penn
sylvania railroad yesterday afternoon
200 employees Of the company were laid
of, the notification Of the reduction in
the force coming as a total surprise to
most of those who were subject to the
order.
The men laid off included all classes
Of labor, and by this decrease in the
force Of workmen there are left but
500 men now at work in the shops. At
the close Of to-day's work It is stated
that a number OF machinists will be
let out indefinitely.
The total working force Of the shops
Is about 1900. The shrinkage Of the
freight department and the small num-
Der Of people travelling is said to be
the direct cause OF the cutting down
OF the shops force.

The Senator intimated that the
sowing Of cartridges in the streets of

Vice President Fairbanks, having
forced semblance of order, announc-

the galleries. His announcement was
received with boots. Then followed
even a greater storm of applause
which was not ended for several min
