Firemen, shopmen and other Glasses

Present Case to Present Similar
Demands.
(By Associated Press.)

New York, July 17-B. A. Worthing-
ton, arguing for the railroads involved
in the demands of engineers for in
creased wages east of Chicago and
north of the Ohio river declared at
the commissions hearing today that
many railroads would face bankruptcy
If the demands are granted. He said
firemen, shopmen and other classes
employed could present similar de-
mands if the engineers obtain the IN
crease.
Warren S. Stone, Chief of Locomo-
tive Engineers, completed oral presen-
tation of the case of the drivers Of
50 Eastern railroads, who are seeking
shorter hours and higher pay before
the arbitration committee at Manhat-
tan Beach Tuesday. B. A. Worthing-
ton, President of the Chicago & Alton.
spokesman for railways, began his
argument in reply.
Mr.. Worthington said there is no
disposition of railroads to make condj-
tion of service for employees unduly
burdensome.
They said there is no higher class Of
service in the world than that Of the
engineers. The average yearly com
pensation received by the engineers In
1910 was 20 per cent more than the
average yearly compensation received
by the engineers in 1900, Mr.. Worth
ington said. The wage adjustments O
; 1910 and 1911 gave the engineers fur
ther advances in pay, resulting in al
annual increase of s4,044,23o.
The engineers now demand stand
ard rate Of pay upon an increase bs
sis and certain standard rules which,
applied against the calendar year O
1911 would have increased the engir
eers' compensate non all railroad
s7172,574, of 17.71 per cent.
Mr.. Worthington said standardiz,
tion of the wages Of engineers woul
have to be followed by adjustments q
wages paid to fremen and other en-
ployes, and the total increase In wage
h would amount approximately to SIS
If 900, 900.

Dear FRIEND you have gone, we sha Il see you
no more
AS you stood that day in the old homestead
You babe US good bye on that bright sunny
day,
Waving your hand as we went on our way.
With smile on your face you said to US then,
Now don't fail to call when you come again.
Twas the last good bye, the last words you
did say.
Soon the sad news comes that you had passed
away.
Always welcome to friends you held dear;
The tried and the true, all through the year,
Our hearts were sad when we knew that no
more
We should see you stand in the old homestead
door.
You loved your home, with its vine covered
bowers,
The sweet honeysucke, the plants and the
flowers.
We look at the flowers you gave US that day,
So like human life they, too, pass away.
No mother more loving, and tender and true
To husband and children, dear Maggie, than
you.
| know they'll miss Mother, when together
they come
To visit and linger in the dear old home.
Faith whispers, some day your face shall see,
With the dear ones love, who are waiting for
We shall know, as we are known. all sorrow is
In our beautiful home on that immortal shore.

Norman Hapgood has retired from
the editorship of Golfers Weekly, be-
cause, as he says, of the removal Of the
seat of editorial authority from the edit
or's room to the office of the business
manager. Mr.. Collier says it was because
of disparity of political intention be-
tween him and his late editor, since he
was for Roosevelt and Mr.. Hapgood was
for Wilson. Be that as it may, Harp
er's Weekly pays this tribute to the re-
firing editor:
Brother Hapgood has been very
able and conscientious editor. Perhaps
he has been over-disposed to use all his
strength, nervous and mental, to blow
peremptorily to hell people and things
bound to get there in time, and whose
immediate destruction was not worth
the ammunition expended. But he has
accomplished some considerable things,
and his efforts have always been inter-
esting to follow.

When the matter of replacing Port
lands city hall, destroyed by fire, was
under consideration there was PROPOSE
ton to put up building for the city
ffices only and to have no auditorium.
And this plan, if memory serves right,
met with considerable favor. It must
be realized now that this would have
been fatal mistake. The building of
the auditorium has not only given Port
land prestige not readily reckoned in
dollars and cents, but has added to her
assets $4,000 organ, one of the few
great organs in the world, and worth
going many miles to hear. With this
auditorium, and her many excellent no.
tells, Portland offers advantages for large
gatherings not to be had elsewhere in
the State, and may rightly claim to be
the Convention City.

in regard to capital punishment. cannot be-
great in Maine, and if this article is wrong
should be glad to see it corrected in your
paper. l also wish to correct an error in re-
gard to Joseph K. Newell of Springfield, by
the writer of the Newell genealogy. Mr..
Newell was never city clerk of Springfield,
but was member of the paint and lumber
firm of T. M Walker and company, almost
continuously from the time he came home
from the war until his death in the late min
ties. He was extremely well read, had a
valuable library and was antiquarian of
note. He was also very public-spirited citi-
zen, and very patriotic one. He was cap
tain in the old 10th Massachusetts, regiment
and his purse was ever ready for his INDECENT
comrades. His brother Elijah Newell (affec-
tionately dubbed "Lige') has been city clerk
of Springfield for more than quarter Of a
century. He also served in the Civil War, be-
ing member of Co. A 46th Massachusetts,
One sister, Mrs. Annette Poole, is writer of

an unusual degree. The error is of no particular
note, but am glad to add good word for an
old and highly esteemed family of Springfield.
