1RAINMEN WANT
 WAGE INCREASES

 dunn on Lines in West.

Every conductor, brakeman, flag man and trainman will in a few days vote for schedule of wages, the highest increase ever asked for by body of railroad men of the West. and if the fifty-two roads west of Chicago accede to the demands 14eir payrolls will be increased many millions of dollars.
 The demands were formulated at meeting of the Western Association Of General Trainmen in St. Louis, and will be sent out in circular form to every railroad man of the West from the headquarters of the Broth erhood of Railway Trainmen and the Order of Railway Conductors.
 The vote is by referendum and when it is counted the heads of the two orders represented will notify the general managers of the result of the vote and ask for a conference to con- sider the demands of the men.
 The association asks for an in? crease of $22.50 a month for passen- ! ger brakemen, flagmen and baggage men. In the freight service a flat demand of 15 per cent increase is made. Overtime for passenger men is to be paid for all actual time consumed in excess of a speed of p miles an hour at hourly rates as follows: Passenger conductors, g cents an hour; passenger flagmen and brakemen, 35 cents an hour j; i brakemen, 33 cents an hour. Time to begin when the train leaves and ends when the terminal is reached
 On freight trains propelled by the Mallet type of engines the rate shall be 90 per cent higher than the regu- lar rate on any given line
 One hundred miles or less, ten hours or less in freight service shall constitute a days work and shall apply to all forms of freight trains taking in through freights pusher, local and work trains.
 On roads where electric or motor service has been established the the regular passenger schedules shall continue to apply except where they are higher than the passenger rates and then the higher motor or electric rates are not to be changed

New York Hears Cotton Belt Is After

Activity among officers and direc- tors of the Gould railroads discloses the fact that Edwin Gould, president of the St. Louis Southwestern, has been discussing with his advisers, in- cluding Vice President F. H. Brit ton of St. Louis, whether it would not be an excellent move for the Southwestern to acquire the Interna tional and Great Northern, says a New York dispatch.
 As the proposition would require, in all probability, the sanction of the Texas Railroad Commission, there is supposition that some obstacles might be interposed against the con- summation of the plan; but the oth- CT opinion prevalent is that Texas would not stand in the way of an undertaking that would result in the formation of a new and powerful system in the Southwest.
 While the suggestion that the St. Louis Southwestern acquire the In ternational and Great Northern is as yet only tentative, there appears to be a very fair prospect c; it's fulfill ment. It is understood that some influential manufacturers and busi- ness men of Texas have advocated the plan to MT. Gould.
 Controlled by GOulds.
 As George J. Gould is the owner, personally, of the International and Great Northern, and t: St. Louis Southwestern is controlled by the JIay Gould estate, there would be little if any difficulty in carrying out the plan.
 The International and Great North ern, which is still in receivership, will be sold at public auc:,ion at Pal estine, Texas. The sale is tEa result of litigation in the Federal: courts The Goulds will bid for the property and they will almost certainly see that it does not go from their poses sion. The project of merging the In- ternational and Great Northern with the St. Louis Southwestern will be considered after the auction. Should the plan materalize, the. St. Louis Southwestern, which now ter inmates at Shreveport, White City, Gatesville, Fort Worth and Sherman will be extended to Laredo, Valesco and Galveston, forming new great system in the Southwest.
 The St. Louis Southwestern is des- tined in any event to become a greater transportation system. Whe- ther it acquires the International
 and Great Northern or not, thereby reaching the Laredo gateway, it will be extended down to Eagle Pass. The company has acquired the Stephen vile North and South Texas, and the Central Arkansas and Eastern and it is now building important extensions i toward the East and North. The St. Louis Southwestern re- gently became a proprietary member of the Terminal Railroad Association and bought land for extensive 1ndl-
 vidual terminals at St. Louis.

RUMORS OF CHANGE
in THE JEFFRIES CAMP.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 5

Closely following the managerial
break in Jack Johnson's camp there
were indications last night of some
thing brewing in Jeffries's camp. Just
what is il the air cannot be learned,
but the presence at Ben Lomond of
Eddie Graney, a San Francisco referee,
and Jack Gleason, one of the promoters
of the fight, gave rise to rumors and
speculation.
Graney said he came to Ben Lomond
merely to see Jeffries and Corbett in
action in their first sparring bout, bat
this explanation is not generally ac-
cepted around the camp. Graney and
Sam Berger, Jeffries's manager, are
said to be anything but friendly, and
vague rumors floating about the camp
have, it that the presence Of the hon
est blacksmith" does not augur well
for Sam.
Gleason. like Graney, said he came to
see Jeffries and Gentleman Jim" don
the gloves for the first time.
Jeffries's good humor seems to be the
best barometer of conditions in the
camp, and if n disturbing winds are
blowing as a result OF Gleason's and
Graney's visit they have not yet rutfied
the feelings of Jeffries.

the pace-following game, and are conf-
dent of winning. Wiley's ability as a
pace-follower is well-known, as is John
Bedell's. Halstead, although somewhat
new at the game, has made a good inn
preston upon those who saw him ride,
who predict great things for him. The
rae will be at ten miles n they will
draw for their p~ace-makers just before
the race starts.
The initial race for the amateur
championship crown will be held to-
night and a quarter-mile is the dis
lance hat has peer selected for the
opening affair. All the stars in the
simon-pure ranks will start n four
men will ride in the final heat. Percy
Lawrence, who won the title last sea-
son, is now riding in the professional
ranks, and there is no champion in the
ranks. There are several likely-looking
young men. including Jake Magin, Joe
Passenger and Willie Coburn, all local
boys: while Chris Schiller. the Frisco
champion; Lloyd Thomas. a speedy n
from the coast; Phil Wright. who was
the king of the amateurs at Salt Lake
city last year; Fred Mccarthy, the
Canadian t~itle-holder; Adam Byerman,
Clarence tdTIneu, RANK DidII, JOAn
Brennan, Martin Kessler, Victor An
derson and Kydelsen, the Dane. All OF
these riders are fast and should put up
a good ride. Besides this ace the INA
teurs will have a chance to ride In a
two-mile open, with all the stars COM
peting, and a one-mile consolation.
Joe Fogler and Kramer are to be the
men on the scratch mark in the two
thirds of a mile handicap, which Is the
other event down on h card for the
professionals. Handicapped Kelsey has
been rather liberal with his allowances,
and in order for either of the back
markers to get up they will have to do
some exceedingly fast riding. Kramer
is anxious to win the event, just to
show his admirers that he can win a
handicap affair. Fogler is also out for
this event and provided the w qualify
for the final a great finish should re-
suit, with the two fighting IL out for
first place. The races will start
promptly at s o'clock.

Sanders, of Elizabeth, and Frank Bell
of New York. Both boys are mixers
and pleased the audience. Bell was a
sort OF target for the first two rounds
but in the final two came back strong.
The boys worked hard, landing several
good blows. A draw was the popular
verdict.
Fighting Lundy. of Brooklyn, and
Eddie Smith, of New York, put up a
grand bout. Both used to the smuggling
game, made the audience sit up.
The mitigating of both men was good
to see, but Smith certainly used right
with telling effect. Lundy, though
several pounds heavier, now began to
force matters, and deserved a decision.
The next bout brought a brother OF
Fighting Lundy, known as Lon Lundy.
His opponent was Harry Seymour, OF
his city. Seymour was the aggressor
in the opening, but at the close of the
bout was compelled to keep covered
up. Lundy used a straight left to ad-
vantage and was very anxious to mix.
His mitigating was also clever. y de-
cision in his favor vas easy.
Though the semi-final was of only
2 minutes and AZ seconds duration, the
boys showed that they were reluctant
to mix. Their withdrawal from the
ring was loudly cheered.
A wrestling bout between Nat Olsen
of New York, and Sandelli had the
spectators on edge. Both are heavy
weights, and certainly love the game.
Sandelli worked like a beaver, and was
the aggressor throughout. When the

SAN FRANCISCO, June SIN order
to protect bettors who may lay wagers
on the Jeffries-Johnson fight, Tex Rick
ard last night appointed Tom Corbeft
official betting commissioner. He au-
thori2ed Corbett to handle all of the
money that may be bet on the fighters,
and gave him the exclusive privilege of
sending his assistants through the
crowd at the ring on the day of the con-
test.
The first big bet that has been placed
with a local commissioner was received
