possible by the end Of the week. The ballot

many employees are voting In favor Of

trouble 10 read It.
The railroad has made no preparations
here for a strike and does not expect one.
Even in event Of strike call, il seems
doubtful whether many OF the old men
would leave the service. a conservative
leader said to-day that no man can enter
the employ OF the railroad who is more
than forty-ive years old and that the com
pany regards a man who leaves the service
on strike as permanently severing his rela-
lions with the road. OF the twenty-five
thousand men voting probably twelve thou
