Retrencllment
POLICY OF RAILROADS RESULTS
IN THE pIscHAReEToF 10000
LAsoRERs IN THE
NORTHWEST.

ST. PAUL, June t5.-The policy Of
retrenchment threatened by the rail
roads because of federal activity in
preventing a proposed increase in
freight rates is already going into eff.
feet. Thus far the policy has meant
the discharge of about 10000 laborers
in the northwest. Orders have been
received from headquarters to stop
nearly all new, constructor work while
plans for extensions and bettermenta
have been temporarily dropped.
It is estimated that the Northern
Pacific has given orders to lay of
$500 men, the Great Northwestern
600. The Chicago Milwaukee and st.
Paul discharged between 1000 and
1900 men during the first part OF
June, in the northern district alone,
The Santa Fe has laid of 1000 men,
and the Chicago, Rock Island and Pa
cifc 500.
The threatened railroad retrench'
ment was effected to-day Orders from
here and Chicago are to stop all con.
struction in the Northwest. This
means they are laying of 10000 men.
Northern Pacific orders $500 laid off;
Great Northern 5000; Northwestern
600: Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
1900; Santa Fe, 1000; Rock Island
1900.
Howard Elliott, President of the
Northern Pacific say the lay of is
caused by increases taxes, increased
pay demanded, increase price of matc'
rails, increased power Of government
commissions supervising railroads.
