SET FORTH
MEMS SIDE
OF DISPUTE
Engineers and Firemen Issue a
Pamphlet on the Pending Wage
Controversy with Sixty
Western Roads

El Reno, Julyy 27.-Officers Of Di-
vision No 52S of the International
brotherhood Of Locomtive Engineers
today issued the following statement:
"The railroad engineers and firemen
are submitting to the business and pro-
fessional men and the public in gen
eral today pamphlet outlining their
side of the western wage controversy
existing between some sixty railroads
and their engineers and firemen. This
pamphlet defines the mems side of the
question to some extxent, and we hope
that you will carefully read the same,
and after doing so, hand it TO neigh
Dor or friend, so that they can read it,
and do likewise.
with our limited means we are only
able to distribute about 25O.OOO of these
pamphlets with the public in the states
west Of Chicago, and a line along the
Illinois Central railroad from Chicago
to New Orleans. and in case you
should not receive one, and would de-
sire one, please call on some engineer
or fireman you may know. and they
will furnish you with copy. 1t is the
desire of the men employed on these
railroads that the public in general
carefully read this pamphlet before
passing Judgment on the issue involv.
ed. The railways involved have in the
past three or four months, during this
controversy, endeavored to create an
impression with the public that the
men are demanding something that is
unjust and unfair. On the other hand
were the engineers and firemen to ac
cept what the companies involved are
offering them, it would mean a reduc
ton in their earnings of at least five
tc seven million dollars per year, anC
neither the shipper or the public
would be benefited one cent by this
reduction. but the money would BIZ
used in stock speculation, as has beer
done in many instances in the past
and not be of benefit to any one il
the territory where these roads oper
ate. If the employees receive the pay
the community is directly benefited
as most of it finds its way back to tn,
merchants, and a benefit is derives
from it to all.
) 1T is a well known fact that in al
past negotiations Of this kind, the Ell
gineers and firemen have always bee
. more than conservative, and have a
all times carefully considered the pull
. lies welfare in matters Of this kin,
; This strike pamphlet goes into deta

TRIP
ON TRAIN

Willie Zomers first experience with
a railroad train was yesterday when
Deputy Walter Long loaded him, liter
ally, on the train at Rush Springs and
brought him to Chickasha, depositing
him in the Grady county jail on a
charge of robbery. According to the
officer, Willie behaved fairly well con-
sidering his first time out, after he was
once seated in the car, but that he
unquestionably had some misgivings
about the proposition during the load
ing process.
Willie is some man, or rather will
be when he is grown. At this time he
is II years ofage, stands six feet three,
tips the beam at about $50 and wears
a No. II shoe, "E" last. "Oh, have
to split 'em on both sides to get 'em
on" said Willie, concerning his foot
wear
Willie was arrested a week ago, but
owing gto the fact that he had suf-
fered cut in his leg from the blade
of an axe, he was unable to travel,
hence his transportation was postpon.
ed until yesterday. He is charged with
robbing several houses in the vicinity
of Elm Flats, east of Rush Springs,
and it is understood that he has ex-
pressed an inclination to enter plea
of guilty.

struck by lightning and considerable
damage done to the chimney.
The ornamental metal cornice and
front Of the building at 1876 Chickasha
avenue was completely torn from the
trick structure. while along the entire
length Of Chickasha avenue was strewn
bits of glass from broken windows and
boards from torn down signs.
The rain extended over a limited
area in the Chickasha section. At Law
erty there was practically no rain,
while five miles this side of that point
was literally soaked. The rain almost
entirely missed Pocasset on the north,
and as far as can be learned the ex-
tent south was but few miles.

REFUSES TO
RECOGNIZE
LAND GRANT
By United Press.

By United Press.
Tampico, July 27-On hearing re-
ports that Huerta had received a loan
of half a million dollars from the
Rothchilds just before his flight, Car
rama announced today that he would
not recognize this and similar trans
actions. 1t is reported that Huerta
gave the Rothchilds cheap land grant
in Lower California, with indications
that big oil concerns would resume
work there Immediately.
1t is doubtful whether Carranza will
accept the Carbajal plan for the trans
fer of the government, as he thinks a
military dictatorship will be necessary
until Mexico is thoroughly pacified.
