Men, Demanding Higher
Wages, Encouraged by the
Company'S Concession.
NO FEAR OF STRIKE,
DECLARE DELEGATES
Amlcable Adjustment Expected by
Men Now in Session
Here.

At the morning session of the loco
motive engineers oE the PENNSYLVANIA
railroad, at Odd Fellows Hall today.
r T. Bowler. general chairman Of the
brotherhood, submitted a proposal from
the company which contains a conces-
sion on the wage question which was
submitted to the general manager at
Philadelphia a week ago by the general
committee Of adjusters
The increase offered by the company
is not SO large as that asked by the
engineers, but it is regarded by the
men as an encouraging sign
After the session Mr.. Bowler stated
that the outlook for an early ard salts
ftctory adjustment was bright He is
chairman of the committee now he
gotiatinG with the PHILADELPHIA Office,
and viii return to that city tomorrow to
resume the work and report the senti-
ment Of the men IN session here.
That there is absolutely no danger of
strike was emphatically declared this
morning by Mr.. Bowler and several
other prominent brotherhood men. There
be another session this evening.
The engineers declare they have been
treated with great consideration by the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, but are
anxious TO better their condition. The
high cost Of living, they say. has made
Il difficult 10 get along well on the
pay they now receive.
The Pennsylvania engineers are now
paid per trip, according to the length
of their runs. Some work ten hours q
day and some as many as sixteen.
What they ask now Is that a definite
number of hours be agreed on as "A
minimum days work for all and that
they receive stated sum per hour
overtime.
This, they claim. is the only practi-
cable way in which the wage scheme
can bC adjusted so as 10 equalize mat
tiers between all the engineers, both
freight and passenger.
Satisfied As to Hours.
The men realize that it would be prac-
tically impossible to better regulate
their hours. Some trips are much longer
than others. and in most instances il
IS impossible to relay the engineers
They are willing to continue the long
runs without relay whenever necessary,
but want more pay.
The blind" terminals was another
subject Of discussion at the morning
session. Blind" terminals are those
where trains mus, be backed out OF
the deTOt. such as Union Station, Wash
ingtOC and Broad Street Station. PhIa-
delFhia. This. the men complain, causes
delay and prOlonSs their hours. No
remedy was suggested This cOndi-
ton was simply pointed out as one Of
the factors in the situation which makes
the mems work hard.
Favor Mileage Basis.
Representatives OF locals east Of Har-
rishurg said their membership favored
q mileage basis tor wages. but the dis
CuSsion on this point was brief and
without definite result
This afternoon the engineers went 10
