Our Daily Discontinued Story.

Young Paul Pry was possessed
of burning curiosity about ev-
erything.
Paul was strolling down the
railway tracks to see how the in
terlocking switch works, when the
stirring events narrated in the
following chapters began to
evolve. He saw on the rail a lit
tie object which seemed to him a
package of chewing gum, but
which was really track torpedo.
He saw at once that 1t was an OBJ
ject with which he was not IA
miliar. To test it's qualities he
placed 1t between his jaws. Some
thing told him that he should be
careful-but it did not speak
quite loudly enough. After roll
ing 1t about with his tongue for
awhile he bit it, gently at first,
and then harder

A few months ago the crying

the members, was to get COM

PROPOSAL OF EMPLOYERS.

Small Portion of Wage Increase
Asked.-Both Sides Hesitate at
Final Plunge Into Traffic TIeup.

Chicago. - SiXty-one representatives
Of the locomotive engineers on as many
railroad systems west of Chicago bat
tied for hours over the question of
whether to accept the offer of the rail-
road officials to arbitrate or to call
strike.
The fighters for strike said that as
the 81, 100 engineers had voted almost
unanimously to quit work If their de-
mands were not granted, the commit
tee should follow their instructions.
The opposition pointed out that the en-
gineers could not face the public after
refusing arbitration, and that such
strike as was contemplated would not
only result in shutting off the food
supply of 100000 people. but would
cause a financial panic greater than
any in the history of the country. They
argued that the strike would be the
most stupendous industrial upheayai
the world has ever experienced.
Grand Chief Engineer Warren 5.
Stone received the answer Of the rail-
road officials. This said that the rail
roads had gone as far as they could by
conceding an advance of 9.3 per cent.
This increase, it is said, was really
more than the roads could stand. In
conclusion the railroad officials said
that they were willing to leave the
controversy to mediation or arbitration
under the Erdman act.
None of the railroad officials would
discuss the situation more than to say
that they had made no arrangements
to meet a strike, but that if one did oc-
cur they would do their best TO run
trains
The increase asked for now by the
engineers ranges from - to 80 cents
per 100 miles. They had asked for an
advance averaging - per cent.
