Persistent rumors are current in
railroad circles of the Hartman sys-

This is all rumor. but it is authora-
lively asserted that the railroad EN-
ployes and travelling men have been
called to Portland from Sound points
and even nearer home and rumor has
leaked out that actions of railroad
men was the chief nature OF questions
answered.
The list of conductors running out
of Pendleton who have lost their po-
sltions either permanently or tenn
porarily now includes five of the sew
en- on the Washington division, three
on the division east of Pendleton and
five on the west-end division. A re-

that the company could not discharge
all because of the impairment to its
service which would follow.
The positions made vacant will be
filled by promotions. The runs are

elapse during which time different
conductors bid upon them. They arc
chosen according to their seniority in
