LARoRs' DIVIDENDS HIGHER.

New York, Sept. 1S.-Most people
have probably forgotten that the rail-
roads are still trying the forestall, or
at least minimize, wage advance de-
manded by the conductors and train
men on the fifty-two Eastern roads.
The board of arbitration named by the
companies and the labor unions has
not been sitting through the summer,
but will meet soon for organisation
The tendency in recent years has been
for labor to absorb more and more of
the revenues of the railroads. In 1902
wages consumed 1873 cents out of
every dollar paid to the carriers. In
1912 labor got 4v.9 cents. In the ten
years following 1902 the total operat-
ing revenues of all railroads in this
country increased 64.6 per cent while
operating costs increased 75.5 per
cent and wages $40 per cent. At that
rate wages would finally absorb the
entire margin of profit if not checked
by an increase in rates, or wholesale
reduction in the number of men en-
gagged in the transportation business.
