CINE 1892 class repairs: Poor
work Is showing on the engines now
as about IS per cent. of the engines
that are being shoped is ON. account
Of broken frames. Quite "a number
of the machinisth that were beginning
to be of any use TO the company have
quit, and the men that they: have
been able to secure are poorer than
the average mechanics Things are
going from bad TO worse right along
and everything In the shops seems
to have that 'sI-dont-care"' look more
than ever, even the foremen and gang
bosses are fighting among 4themselves
Potter and Willard went through on
No. z on the 10th: Engine 755
needed new tires and NJ. NJ. Kirkpat-
rick ordered them bored out while
the engine was still in service, when.

the centres were 68 "" ! suppose
the M. M. is missing his machinist
that held his job for him ever since
he came to Newark, it shows very
plainly who holds the NJ. Ms jobs,
and who they have to depend on
when they have to take any respons-
Utility ON themselves. You can plain
" see that it costs the company from
81 to $500 additional expense be-
sides having the engines out of SER
vice. We hope that this strike Is
