WAGES MAJ. GO up.
Two Stories About Proposed BurIing-
ton Advance Pay.

Chicago, June 30.-The Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy railroad is
preparing to increase the wages of it's
unorganized employees between and
10 per cent, according to an an
nouncement made by President
Miller. The increases will affect ev-
cry employe earning a salary of 5000
or less.
1t is stated that the increases will
affect between 10000 and 30, 600 en-
ployes, the larger part of them being
clerks. Officials of the company esti-
mate that the payroll of the company
will be increased between 81 million
and 81 million annually
Had 1T not been for certain things
which have made the railroads appre-
hensive for the future said President
Miller, "the Burlington would have in
creased the pay of unorganized labor
before this. AS matters are now. we
feel like going slow and not taking on
any increased liability that is not
necessity. We recognize, however, the
fact that unorganized labor should
have a recognition every time that or
ganized labor secures recognition. Sew
eral of the organized branches of labor
have already been granted increases,
and it may be that we will wait until
we have finished treating with organ
lied labor before we take up unorgan-
lied labor"
The Customary Denial.
Chicago, June 30-A report that the
Burlington road is contemplating an
increase in the pay of it's unorganized
employees was emphatically denied to-
day by President Miller.
