OLD sHOPMEN OPPOSE sTRIKB

To Leave Their Posts WOuId Mean
Loss of Seniority Benefits.
Illinois Central trainmen arriving from
Chicago Tuesday state that when they left
there Monday afternoon there were all
kinds of strike rumors relative 20 the men
in the company shops quitting. They add,
however. that no decisive action Is antici-
pated until after the conference that rep
resentatives Of the federated unions ars
expected to hold in San Francisco with
Julius Kruttschnitt, director Of mGinte-
nance and operation of the Hartman lines.
In the event Kruttschnitt should refuse
to give recognition to the new federation
then the Illinois Central anticipates q
strike in the shops on the part of the sys-
tenn with which they are connected. Gen-
orally they do not expect the walkout to
extend beyond the shops, contending that
the majority Of the men in the operating
department are satisfied with existing con-
ditions and do not feel like quitting their
Jobs right at the beginning OF winter es.
pecially when there Is no wage qusstioH
involved so far as they are conoarned
Not All wOuId Obey.
The Illinois Central railroad men who
came to town Tuesday express the opinion
that in the event a strike order should be
issued TO the men in the shops Il would
not be obeyed by all OF the employees.
They take the position that most of the
men who have long been in the employ OF
the company would remain at work. These
men, they say, contend that II they remain
at work It will not be many years until
most Of them will be retired on old age
pensions. Should they quit and go out on
a strike, It is said they argue. that the
chances would be decidedly against their
being restored to their old positions, even
