The united societies for local self

Even some of those who voted against

There has been agitation for the re-

permits an entire township to vote sa-
looms out of cities and villages within
its borders, ever since its passage
several years ago.
Deadlock Is Foreseen.
Those familiar with the makeup Of +.
the present Legislature are of the opin- .
ion that neither the drys nor the vets .
viii be able to put through any bills .
The house is wet by a margin of at
least half a dozen votes, while the /
senate is dry, with not more than one
lr two votes to spare.
The threats to repeal these two
measures are partly responsible for
he bitter wet and dry fight which has

Statistician Lauck vaIu-
able Witness for Engi-
neers at Hearing.
MAKING ENOUGH MONEY
Shows Lines Could Deduct Big
Profit and Still Have Mil
lions to Pay Help.

Chicago, Ill, Jan. 9.-The first stage
of the arbitration under the Newlands
act of the wage demands of engineers,
firemen and hosuers of 9S western
railroads is nearing its close. Tes-
timony for the men it is expected, will
be finished next week and pre-
sentation of the railroad side of the
case begun.
What, from the standpoint of the
men. is regarded as one Of the most
important pieces of evidence present
ed since the hearings began more
than month ago was presented Fri
day by W. J. Lauck, a statistician
who completed four days testimony
of a highly technical nature.
The testimony bore on the ability
os the railroads to pay the increases
asked by the men. Lauck stated that
they were abundantly able 70 do so
b-sing his statement on the volume
of the United States governmental
figures.
Lauck declared that 43 represen
tative roads could deduct proper
profit on their investment in bigger
engines and cars, reduced curves anu
grades and the like and still havs
left s5O,0OO0o0 each year to pay the
men for the increased share they have
had in heaping up earnings and for an
emergency reserve fund. He stated
that the ratio would hold good for
all the railroads involved.
On this basis it was calculated
roughly that all the railroads IN
volved are earning 100000, 600 a year
on increased efficiency Of equipment
road bed. grades and labor Accept
ing the rough estimate OF the rail
road managers that the advances !
would cost them S30.O00,000 Lauck I
figured that the advance could be met
and handsome margin left over
for an emergency fund.
Warren S. Stone head of the
of Locomotive Engineers
said that thirty million is too large
an estimate.
Lauck Approdmates Cost
1T is too large for the reason that
some of the advances which we ask
are punitive-designed to make the
railroads work more men and save
the men from the health-wrecking
hours they have TO work" Stone eX-
llained to a reporter. He said that
lie never attempted to calculate e&
ictly what the actual cost to the
'ailroads would be.
Lauck placed in evidence an ap- {
roximation of the cost. Although
,tone said that the increases asked
o not amount TO 25 per cent, Lauck
cured that this percentage would
