NO WAGE INCREASE
TRAlNMEN'S DEMANDS ARE RE-
JEcTEo sY MANAGERS OF
EASTERN ROADS.
MEN MAY TAKE STRIKE VOTE
Higher Freight Rate Will Be Asked
of Interstate Commerce Body by
Rail Heads-Over $500 Clerks in
Buffalo, N. ", Quit.

New York. May 3.-The conference
committee of managers rejected here
Thursday the demands of the con
ductors and trainmen on the forty
three roads of the eastern district.
The answer was communicated to a
committee representing the Order of
Railway Conductors and the Brother
hood OF Railway Trainmen at Sc
cret meeting held in the Engineering
Society building.
The managers committee call atten-
tion to the fact that in 1910 the rail
roads, in order to avert strike, grant
ed the conductors and trainmen an
aggregate increase in wages of $780,
100000. The present increase Of
$17,000,000, the roads point out. would
be equivalent to placing on their prop
critics a lien of $425,000,000 of 4 per
cent. securities, the burden of which
would fall upon the public.
The trainmen and conductors may
at later date modify their demands
upon the managers, or they may
elect to take a referendum strike vote
among their 100000 members.
The railroads of the eastern terri
tory. having discussed the freight
rate problem. have decided to ask
the interstate commerce commission
to allow per cent. increase on
freight of all character.
Buffalo, n Y, May 3.-More than
$500 department store employees, in
volving every store of the kind in

wages and shorter hours Thursday.
Employees Of hardware and five and
ten.cent stores participated In the
strike.

The king Of Spain has ordered the
buttons on the sleeves Of servants
who walt at his table cut off. This is
because of an awkward happening at
dinner given by the king at the
palace at Madrid to two eminent hnan-
ciers. One of the guests wore a
peruke. One Of the walters, as he
was serving this financier, hooked his
peruke on button of his sleeve and
carried it away to the kitchen. Span
ish etiquette is of too severe a char
acter to permit laughter at such an
incident. When the servant discover
ed what he had done he fed, carry
ing the peruke with him, and the
financier left the palace baldheaded
and in very bad humor.
