Tips are deplored as an economic and
social evil by the porters in the employ
of the Pullman company So say two
parlor car attendants. The system means
more to the men as family heads and as

| nuisance The tipping system keeps them

these reasons alone a living wage should

Salaries range from s6.sS a week for a
sleeping car porter to Si05O n week for a
"broler parlor car" porter. The tips"
received vary from slO to S25 n week. A
porter on an ordinary parlor car receives
wage of S35 n month, or sS.75 n week.
The whole system Of salaries has been
figured out on scientific basis. Sleeping
car porters II has been found, receive
larger tips than do the others, and con-
sequently their salary has been placed at
the minimum.
As the reporter entered one OF a string
of empty parlor cars in the West Pha-
dclphia yards he heard the following
words:
Here, you. get up You've got Ave
minutes to get your car In shape before
you pull into the station"
These words from one porter accom-
panied n resounding Kick on the sCles Of
a sleeping colleague. The porter who was
snatching a few hours rest, propped up
in two parlor car chairs, had not been
in bed in 10 hours. lie told the man
who reused him that Monday and Tues

Washington and New York. returned to
New York on his NTH trip early We'd

had to take an early-mornng train back
to Philadelphia, Whence he arrived in
this city he was ordered to be prepared
to return TO New York when leeded,

he early in the afternoon. His only sleer
was that in the parlor car.

tcularly enraged, not at the fact that
he had no real sleep in nearly two days
but at the idea that he was compelled to
