RAILROAD MEN ON
WESTERN ROADS TO
DEMAND INCREASE

Denver. July 21.-The engineers,
conductors. switchmen and brakemen
on ~ railroad systems in the terri
tory between the Mississippi river
and the Pacific coast and the Gulf of
Mexico and Canada will. on August
/, make formal demands on the rail-
roads for increases in wages and i'm
provements in working conditions.
Between 5000 and 10000 men in
Colorado are involved in the contro-
versy.
A special council of the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen has been
called for August l in st. Louis, to
take up the subject and decide on the
course of action to be followed. A
similar conference of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers will be held
the same day. though the city in
which they will convene has not been
announced. Neither organization
has. as whole, so far presented its
demands to the railroads; and, in
stead of doing so individually. the
demands will be made upon the As
sociation of General Managers, rep
resenting every railroad in the west
The ST. Louis council will be COM
posed of the executive officials of the
and the chairmen of the committee
from each railroad system The del
egates going from Denver include
Geor e Day of the Denver & Rio
Gran e, l.. f. Shaug of the Colorado
& Southern, F. S. Barnes of the Bur
lington and Charles Bogue of the I'm
ion Pacific. There will be only one
delegate from the Order OF Railway
Conductors from Denver.
The engineers of all of the western
lines Will present their demands in
the same manner, and will negotiate
direct with committee of ten repre-
senting all of the roads. Each rail-
road in turn agrees to abide by the
| decisions of the committee The men
| are ready to press their demands to
the striking point, if necessary: but
| ii is believed that the issues at stake
are so large and affect the general
prosperity of the country to such an
extent that an adjustment will be
secured without the necessity of call
ing the men out on strike.
There are about 500 trainmen in
| Denver and between 5000 and 5000
in the state. There are approximate
| ly 1000 engineers in Colorado. ANY
strike involving these organizations
would doubtless throw additional
| thousands out of work. The five or
ganizations have total membership
of between 100000 and 10000 men.
The trainmen are seeking shorter
hours, an increase in pay and changes
in the working rules. The engineers
| demands embrace about the same
grievances. The yardmen are not in
volved, as their differences were set
| tied recently The trainmpn nd diusted
differences about two years ago in
