SINGULAR PROBLEM IN WAGES

AS a result of the recent

employees. in many cases certain
classes of employees are receiving
wages as high or higher than the
wages of their superior officers.

way Age Gazette points out that
on some lines cnginemen are
receiving an average of Sc. 80 day,
tiretuen $4.l5. conductors SIS. flag
man S3.65 and bral emen $3.50.
The wages earned by the best paid
emplyes exceed these amounts, be-
ing as much as SIPS to $lO.5O for
enginemen $40 for road firemen,
Sc for conductors and $685. for

REBELS CONCENTRATING
WEST OF CHIHUAHUA.

Ell PASO, Tex, March 30.-All avail
able insurrectos in the field in Northern
Mexico are being concentrated west of
Chihuahua, according to news received
here. 1t is believed by insurrecto SYM
pathizers that the purpose is to allow
those who have fought for the insur-
recto cause to have some part in the
consideration of peace terms.
That there has been no recent fight
ing around Chihuahua Is regarded as
indicating that the men in the field be-
lievc the selection of the new cabinet
an evidence of good faith upon the part
of the government preparatory to peace
negotiations.
However, the concentration of Ma
dero's forces near Chihuahua would
make possible an immediate movement
against that city should negotiations
fail.
Many of the insurrectos are small
farmers; they have been in the field for
months and have suffered many hard
ships. AS the time for planting their
crops is now at hand it is thought here
they will be willing to return to their
farms and await the development of re-
forms if assured by the cabinet that
the reforms already outlined will be
enacted.
They will demand, however, hat they
retain their arms; that all prisoners
taken since the outbreak of the insur-
rectos be released and that the families
of those who have fallen in the insur-
recto ranks be given the same compen-
sation awarded to families of the fed
eral dead.
