Chicago, ILL.,. May An arbitration
award advancing to some extent the
rates of pay of some $4,000 locomo-
tive engineers, firemen and hostlers
employed on the 100000 miles of line
of ninety-eight western railroads in
the great area of the United States and
Canada bounded on the east by the
Illinois Central and the great lakes
was signed here yesterday. The award
is effective May 10.
Judge Peter c. Pritchard, of Rich
mond, Va, chairman of the board, ex-
planned his position, and said that
while in his opinion the men in GER
tain branches of the service were en-
titled to greater advances than were
made, he had to make concessions in
order that an award might be made,
and he found much of a hopeful ma
ture in the award.
The essential concessions to the men
were:
Standardization of rates of pay on
the weight of locomotives on drive
wheels.
overtime pay to passenger firemen
and engineers, ranging from "A to 80
cents an hour. respectively.
Seniority Rights
Enginemen of steam power may
transfer to electric power when in
stalled without loss of seniority rights
after May l. 1915. The board was un-
able. because of the newness of cleo
trio railroad service. to fix rates of pay
in detail, but named $3.50 a day as the
minimum for motormen In passenger
service and $3.50 for their helpers
S4.15 for motormen in freight service
and S2.75 for helpers.
Enginemen of milk trains. circus

BERLIN. April b.-The Imperial post

Pouter Pigeon Type
Of English Soldier
Goes with Red Coat

Correspondence of The Associated Press)
LONDON. April 5.-The old pouter
pigeon type OF British soldier with his
ramrod department and feet at impossi-
hle angles is now as obsolete as his red
coat This change is evident not on,y in
the training OF the new army. but in the
royal cadet schools at Sandhurst and
woolwich. Alertness and agility ,nental
and physical. are now aimed for instead
cf physical rigidity and mechanical pre-
cision as in the old times.
Swedish exercises have taken the place
OF conventional callsthenics. About the
only piece OF apparatus left in the Sand
hurst gymnasium Is the padded horse.
Parallel bars. rings. heavy dumbbells and
pulley exereisers have been sent away.
Now the cadets are taught what is known
In their slang as monkey tricks. such as
walking on top of o high and narrow
stone wall and jumping safely TO the
ground, skipping the rope and playing
various kinds of games.
One reason why the pouter chest has
gone out of style Is its menace to health.
An overdeveloped chest Is held to be dan.
gerous as It invites pneumonia and other
troubles.
Men on the march are allowed to I'M
button their coats and make themselves
comfortable. but smoking at such times
