favorably disposed towards their
county seat, but wish to have some
manifestation occasionally of the

Southern Pacific Railroad Company Starts Retrenching. in

Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. 23.-What is re-
garded as preliminary step toward
the threatened strike of the union
employees of the Southern Pacific
Railway, under the new system of the
federation plan, whereby all union
contracts with the railroad company
expire at the same time. will probab-

from the federation, which is all Of
the unions, collectively.
1t has been given out by the feder-
alton officials that if he pursues this

fuses to confer with them, they will

Intimidating Employees
san Francisco, Calf, Aug. "a
More than five thousand employees of
the Southern Pacific Railway COM
pany are affected by the result of the
recent order Of the company, which
calls for the reduction of the working
forces as a retrenchment move.
1t Is estimated that two thousand
persons in san Francisco and su-
burbs viii be thrown out Of employ
ment, and twelve hundred more at
Los Angeles. The remainder are dis
tributed at other points along the
companys lines.
The reduction has been extended
to the ranks Of the office clerks. many
of whom have been or will be drop
ped from the pay roll.
The company has given its reasons
for the wholesale discharge Of en-
ployes as slack business, but it is
generally believed that it is a move
in anticipation Of a general strike of
employees in all branches to bring
about shorter hours and increased
wages.
Many Of the more radical ones
make so bold as to claim that the
Southern Pacfic's move will be fol-
lowed by similar ACTION by other rail-
road companies, and that it is hoped
by the companies that they will be
able to avert the threatened strike by
Gripping the laboring classes before
hand by throwing them out of en-
ployment.
