The political meanderings of our
friend, A. c., candidate for governor,
are very interesting whether he ad-
dresses the A. H. T. A.. or his readers

FINANCIAL STANDING
IMPAIRED BY INCREASED
PAY OF ENGINEERS

New York, July 25.-A H,
Smith, vicepresident In charge OF
operating the New York Central
line, testified at today's session OF
the arbitration commission at Man
haitian Beach, that the demands of
the locomotive engineers for in
creased pay on So roads, east of
Chicago. If granted. would seriously
impair the financial standing OF the
road.
Mr.. Smith said there were two
fundamental questions at issue. One
was In equity of the engineers de-
mands and the other the economic
situation, with reference to the abil-
ity of the railroads to pay the inc
creased cost without impairment of
public service
Mr.. Smith cites as the reason why
the proposed increase should not be
granted, first, that the conditions
have not changed since the last
wage adjustment, and second, that
the New York Central would find 1t
impossible to grant an increase OF
IL per cent in any one year.
He said his company had granted
per cent increase to all en-
ployes in April, 1910, and later in
the same year there was an adjust
ment of wages of engineers, which
gave thin total increase on that
year of 10 per cent.
He declares that experience has
shown that II the engineers are Civ
EN- an advance the pay of other
classes of employees must be in
creased in proportion.
This. he said, would augment the
pay roll of the company, by about
$4,000 a year.

PROPOSED IN ANTITRUST
SUIT AGAINST NEWS UNIONS

Washington, July 25.-A friendly
settlement through an agreed decree
OF the proposed antitrust suit
against the American Press Associa-
tion and the Western Newspaper
Union seems likely.
AS the result of extened con err
ences during the last two days it
was said today that all differences
between the government and the cor
poTations as to the provisions of an
agreed decree had been compromised,
with one exception, the nature of
which was not disclosed.
Should the negotiations succeed
civil antitrust suit would be filed
and the agreed decree entered short
ly afterwards.
The decree does not provide for
the dissolution OF either company
but contained injunctions against
any unfair methods In compe ition
