Two Groups Of Men Arrived In the
City Yesterday Morning Having
Been Promised Big
Wages.
FOUR DOLLARS A DAY
Were the Wages Which the Agent
Promised Had Gotten
Lay of to Make the
Trip.

Sixty more men arrived in the city!
yesterday. coming from Indiana, all
having been promised big wages m
their arrival here by an agent who
promised them work The name or
the agency which the man in Indian
apolis claims to represent Is the
Beard Employment Agency. Just late
~ he placed big add in one of the
papers out there to the effect that ten
thousand men we're wanted to work
in harvest fields, at the same time say
ing that wages Of from four to four
and half dollars would be paid to
those who accepted the offer. AS one
of the fellows said, This looked pref
ty good to US and sc we all got a
thirty day layoff and came" All these
men hold good positions and just
came for the experience and fun in it
besides making expenses.
Knows the Agent.
When they got here they were I'M
able to discover the promised work
and this afternoon many of them set
out for fresh pastures Hardly any
of them had any money and SO had to
take freight train out of here N
order to reach the places where they
wish to go. Very few of them start
ed back home again, all seeming to
think that while they are in this ter
Iritory they might as well stick. One
of the fellows in the bunch said that
| he had worked with the fellow who
was doing this promoting and knew
| him well. Just today he received a
letter from him asking how all the
fellows were and telling him to bring
back the tickets again This fellow
said that he would take him back q
/ good hard punch and all the Others
agreed that they would take great
pleasure in administering punch OF
two themselves.
Two Separate Groups.
There were two separate groups Of
the fellows that came in today. One
i group of forty-two came in on the 4
line train number / at 1880 in the
morning, while another group of eigh
i teen arrived on the Wabash at about
III o'clock. All of them hailed from
near Indianapolis, Indiana and were
shipped into here by different routes
Some of the men looked as though
they had worked in Offices while 9th
ers looked like laborers and all tool
| their misfortune philosophically An
other big bunch is expected in to
/ night but they will undoubtedly have
as much trouble finding four dollar
day job here as did their predeces
