NTEXICANs WORK FOR PENNsY

The importation of Mexican poems
to serve as track laborers on the Penn
sylvania Railroad has not ceased, the
400 who were brought here several
months ago and quartered in camps
at Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia. 1t was
learned from the company that be-
tween 80 and 40 additional poems had
arrived this week from Ell Paso, swell
ing the group already settled in the
suburbs. More are to come, as fast
as they can be engaged by agents
which the company has stationed at
the border
The company's agents are offering
the Mexicans IS cents an hour with
the promise of 10 hours work a day
as an inducement to bring them north.
In view of the fact that wages in Mex
leo at this time are at a low ebb and
that under the best conditions this
class seldom earns little in Mexico or
the border American States, the re-
sponse, it was said, has been fairly
satisfactory, although not as speedy
as the company desired.

Trainmen Appeal For
Continuance of Jitneys

Lodge No SS3. Brotherhood of Rail-
road Trainmen, has passed the follow
ing resolutions:
ITO the Mayor and City Commissioners:
Dear Sirs:
Whereas, There are rumors afioat to
the effect that the jitney service, which
has been OF such wonderful advantage
to the public since the Garments strike,
whereas, The withdrawal of said
jitney service will only serve to COM
plicate the problem of city transporta-
ton, and, in addition deprive the pub
lie, who apparently believe that the
carmen are in the right, of the neces-
sary means to go to and from their
various occupations.
And since the Harrisburg Railways
Company has not shown that it cannot
meet the demands the men ask but
bluntly refuses to arbitrate, or other
strikers, who agree to withdraw from
the fight, that if by an honest investi-
cation being made it is found that
nof 1hf aTTfsoTrE 81 EaWayS company can
ploy; and, if any of the demands are
of such a nature as to be unfair in
comparison with wages and. conditions
in the same line of work. in other
cities, where the operation of the cars
is carried on successfully by agreement
between the operators and the unioni
therefore, be it
Resolved, That we. the members
of the Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men, Lodge 3S3, request that you do
nothing in regard to taking the only
ton, viz, the jitney service from the
public until the controversy between the
Harrisburg Railways Company and the
striking carmen has been settled; and
be 1t further
Resolved, That you use every means
in your power to persuade the Harris
burg Railways Company to recede from
it's out-of-date method OF settling labor
disputes, and in so doing bring peace
again to the city. that it may be known
to all that industrial problems that
arise here can be settled without mall
ice. ennity or disturbance of the public
peace.

strange submissiveness of his compan-

the disquieting suspicion that they

Two people emerged from the door
and, passing by without SO much as a

heart went down to his boots. Bede-

soft spoken remark that her compan-
ion had made as they were crossing

no other than the tall, good looking

THE ZULU IN THE WooDPILE.
From a member Of a railway
brotherhood we get this:
THE railways don't expect to win
the coming strike; they may not
even force us to strike. They may
grant our eight-hour-day demand
without a walkout. And then they
will use the fact that they have
shortened our hours as an argument
that they have increased our wages
'25 per cent or more and they'll de-
mand a corresponding increase in
freight or passenger rates. All their
publicity now is designed not to beat
us traiRmen, but to beat the public
afterward!"
Is this the reason for the railroads
strenuous campaign against the de-
mands of their employees?
Is the series of statements the rail
roads have given out intended. to
make the public believe they have
given the men a much greater con-
cession than they really have?
In this connection some figures are
significant:
The roads have just won a 5 per
cent increase in, freight rates, hav-
ing asked a 10 per cent increase from
the interstate commerce commits
sion.
Railroad profits are larger now
than ever before in recent years; the
New York Central this year, we are
reliably informed, will make 21.1 per
cent .
