PLEAD INABILITY TO GRANT
 INCREASE TO ENGINEERS.
Railroad Officials Tell What Its Effect
 Would Be.

New York. July 25.--A. H. Smith, vice president in charge of operating the New York Central lines, testified at today's session of the arbitration commission at Manhattan Beach that the demands of the locomotive engi- neers for increased pay on 52 railroads east of Chicago would, if granted, seri- ously impair the financial standing of his road,
 Mir. Smith read from 8 prepared statement showing the effect of the proposed new wage schedule upon the New York Central and allied lines. He said there were two fundamental ques- tiOns at issue. One was the equity Of the engineers demands and the other the economic situation with reference to the ability of the railroads to pay the increased cost without impairment of the public service.
 MT Smith cited as reasons why the proposed increase should not be grant ed First, that conditions have not changed since the last wage adjust ment; and, second, that the New York Central would find it impossible to grant an increase of 1T per cent. in any one year. He said that the com pany had granted a I per cent. in crease to all It's employees in April, 1910, and that later in the same year there was an adjustment of wages of engineers which gave them a total in crease in that year of 10 per cent. He declared that experience had shown that if the engineers are given an ad- vance the pay of other classes of ern- ployes must be increased in propor- ton. This, he said, would augment the payroll of the company by about $6,6O0,000 a year.
 The annual dividends of the com pany amount to $11, ,136,000 on per l cent. basis. the witness continued, and as the surplus must be maintained for working purposes, the demand for an Increase in wages was equivalent to asking the company to reduce its divi- dends from per cent. to slightly less than 1-2 per cent. per year,
 MT, Smith called attention to the heavy outlay of his road for better ments, commenting on ths annaul out lay for general Improvements and ad- 1 ditfons to equipment on the New York Central was from &2o.000, ,000 to S30,- I oOO, 900.
 H. J. Horn, vice president of the ] New York, New Haven and Hartford l railroad, declared that the proposed ] advance in wages and a corresponding increase to other employees, including those on the Boston and Maine, would not only prevent the company from paying dividends, but would cause 1t i to default on payment of interest on 1 bonds and even the rental of the l leased lines could not be met. This, 1 he said. would mean the disintegration | of tho system,
