ST. Sfmeon,s Church

The Mission to be held at st. SIM
cons church from the first to the twelfth
of December is part OF a nationwide
preaching mission to be undertaken by
the Episcopal church during the COM
ing year. 1t was at first intended that
it should be simultaneous in every
parish of the church, but the difficult
ties of such an undertaking were found
to be go great that the time for holding
these missions was extended to include
Advent to Easter. Therefore, during
the time between now and next Easter
In almost every parish in the United
States such a series of services will be
held. The rector of st. Simeon's will
preach the mission in his own parish
and will probably preach one Of the
other missions in the diocese sometime
in January or February. An adver-
tisement of the mission in st. Simeon's
will be found or the front page of this
issue.

years have sequestered out of increas-
ed earnings sum of over $4,000, 900
which quite properly could be devoted
to compromising engineers and ire
men for their greater efficiency, and
for reserves. The committee of West
ern railroad managers few months
ago, in a statement issued to- the pub
lie, said that the demands of the en-
gineers and firemen would mean on
expenditure of $33,OOO,000 by their
companies, the intimation being that
such an outlay wiuld be impossible to
meet. According to Mr.. Lauck, how
ever Western railroads, despite their
wildcat financiering, have been able
to make vast sums and hide them
away in reserves, and in other book
keeping accounts, to prevent the men
of the locomotive cab and other EN-.
ployes from receiving their just wage
dues.

watered stocks and the purses of a
few crafty manipulators lined with
gold during the reorganization period
among Western railroads according to
statements made on the witness stand
last week by w. Jett Lauck statistical
expert Of the engineers and hremen's
brotherhoods.
The current Of the Western wage
nearing was moving along smoothly
when Mr.. Lauck, under direct examin-
alton by Warren S. Stone, head of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
threw fright into the ranks of the
railroads representatives and brought
spectators in the federal building court
room to the tip-top of excitement. The
surface of the Western railroad finan-
cial scandals were only scratched, how
ever. 1t was intimated that more is
forthcoming at later date. The Rock
Island, Great Western, Frisco" and
Southern Pacific lines were mentioned
specifically by Mr.. Lauck as having
odorous histories.

zen, 4.97 per cent during the same
period.
A rather impressive statement was
made by Mr.. Lauck Thursday when he
eferred to the generosity of Henry

1auck. said that although in the auto

suggested Mr.. Stone.
Undoubtedly, answered Mr.. Aauck,
who, moment later, had occasion tc
refer to the Louisiana and Arkansas
road and its bad financial showing.
Mr.. Stone dryly remarked at that
point:
'iMr. Aauck, isn't it true that ali the
