SHOP STRIKE IS THREATENED.
Western Roads officials say They Can
Not Afford More Wages.

Chicago, Aug. 9.-Railroad omicials in
Chicago have begun arranging con-
ferences to discuss the strike said to
threaten all western lines, with the
purposes of presenting an undivided
front if action is taken by employees.
Officers of the Chicago, Rock Island
& Pacific railroad denied the strike ru-
mors and said their employees had
made no demands. Other lines admit
ted the possibility of a strike.
According to reports in circulation
among railroad men, all the western
lines have been sent a series of de-
mands from the shop workers, the
principal items in which are as fol-
lows:
Physical examination and personal
record blank requirements to be dis
continued
wages.
An eight-hour day.
Time and one-half for day service
after p. m. and double time after
midnight.
one apprentice to be employed for
every five mechanics, and this ratio to
be maintained.
Apprentices not to work overtime.
Employees laid off on account of
reduction in the force to be re-employ-
ed in the order they have been laid off
Piece work premium system to be
abolished.
The management of the Southern
railroad has issued a circular pointing
out that the demands would mean an
additional outlay for that company
alone of 81, 796. 900 each year.
It is set forth in the circular that in
the last five years the wages of the
shop crafts have been increas ed, on the
average, 1919 per cent and in some in
stances as high as 80 per cent
julius Kruttschnitt, vice president If
the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific
railroads, said:
1T is a very serious situation. The
demands mean an outlay of $l,000,0V0
to the Hartman roads. 1t is certain.
we do not feel that a demand for in
creased pay is justifiable at this time"
The railroads have reached a point
where they cannot afford to pay more
money to their workers and if a strug-
gle is to come, know of no better time
than the present. said another railroad
official.

DECREASE IN CAR SURPLUS.
Quarterly Report Satisfactory to Coun-
try's Roads.

Arthur Hale. chairman of the COM
mittee on relations between railways
of the American Railway association in
presenting statistical bulletin No. a9-A,
giving a summary of car shortages
and SURPRISES by groups from March
80. 1910, to July 10. 1911, says:
THE total surplus for the date of
this report is 150,433, a decrease of 49,
075 since our last report. OF this de-
crease 1874 are coal and gondolas, and
$500 boxcars. There are also slight de-
creases in fiat and miscellaneous cars.
The bulk of the decrease in boxcars
is in groups (CentraD. (Southern),
and 10 (Pacific). while the coal car de
crease is general. There are also some
scattering shortages which are as yet
unimportant. study of the charts
for previous years shows that without
exception the decrease in surplus has
started with either the first or sec
ond period in July. and the reports
seem to indicate d similar tendency in
the supply this year"

body of Sam Harvey. who was
drowned in the Solomon river Satur-
day, has not been recovered although
searching parties are still at work.
At the time the motor boat passed
over the dam, the water was running
nearly level with the dam, but a great
whirlpool formed at the place and
sucked the boat in. Mr.. Banks Of
Glasco tried to save young Harvey but
was unable to do so. The four young
men with Harvey succeeded in getting
to the shore safely.
The motor boat sank and is prob
ably at the bottom of the river yet.
The river is still rising and this fact
battles the work of the searching party.
This is the second drowning in the
Solomon river within two weeks.

which contained the parrot in a cor
venient place and chatted with friends
who had accompanied her to the sta
ton.
Suddenly the cry of 'aII aoard'' was
heard. The conductor looked at his
watch and then at a young man who

minutes yet before we pull out and 7

exclaimed the conductor. ct am run

the conductors words. He became

should be subjected to uncaled for
