hour day demanded by the men did
not actually mean a shorter workday,
but rather an increase of rs per cent
over existing wages for the same
amount of work, and an increase in
airy cases of 81 IL per cent for over
time as compared with present rates.
The demands pertain only to freight
and not to passenger service.
The railroads maintained that to al
low the increase would add 100000
600 year to the operating expenses
of all roads in the United States, for
the benefit Of men whose average pay
per day was increased from 80 to AZ
per cent from 1903 to 1914, while the
wages of the western engineers were
further increased in 1915"

The mems Proposition.

The mems proposition submitted at
the conference provided that 100 miles
or less, or eight hours or less, should
constitute day, with overtime be-
ginning at the expiration of eight
hours on runs of less than 100 miles,
and as soon as 100 miles had been run
on longer trips, overtime to be COM
puted at one and one-half times the
pro-rata rate, no one to receive less
than they previously received for a
minimum. day. The men were to be
guaranteed the right to retain any
rates of pay or schedules in effect
January l, 1916, which were prefera-
BILE to the new schedule.
The roads contended that the men
made no allowance for the difference
between railroad and Industrial service.
They pointed out that railroad engine
men or trainmen are guaranteed pay
ment for full day, no matter how
few hours they work, and receive pay
for more than a full day if they work
more than either the established miles
or hours. In other lines of industry,

Steel SHARES FURNISH
> FEATURE in street"
Opening Heavy, Stock Is Forced Up
by Steady Buying.
CBy the International New. Service.

CBy the International News seryiee.)
New York Nov, Although some spe-
Cialists made longer net gains today
than United States Steel, the shares Of
the biggest corporation in the world were
the feature OF the day. The stock open
ed rather heavy. but buying was con-
ident from the beginning. Late in the
afternoon a buying movement Of violence
set in that put 1t to 12l, where 1t closed.
Professionals forgot they had been dis
appointed at the earnings for the third
quarter. What they remembered was
that the corporation is earning about
50 per cent on its common stock and with
the extra is really a 9 per cent dividend
payer.
Steel set the pace for the day. Wall
Street was uncertain what to do until
the heavy buying of that stock was OBJ
served. Then confident buying of many
issues was begun. The result was
series Of new high records and the or
EanlZa ton OF several new pools to carry
on campaigns. Conspicuous among the
active shares today were American Loco
motive. Westinghouse, Crucible and At
lantic. Gulf and West Indies. Trading
gained in volume and confidence to the
very close Of the market and final prices
in most issues were the best Of the day.
What happened in American Locomotive
Railway Springs. Baldwin, Car Foundry
and Pressed Steel Car was surprising
chiefly becaIse of the delay. American Lo-
COmotive in particular has been in strong
position for months. Not only is it max
ing handsome profits from war material
but II is getting all the orders for Lo-
cOrOtives it can possibly fill. In addi-
ton to this there is the assurance, as
the result of litigation begun by Isaac
NJ. Cate that the profits will go to the
shareholders.
Accumulation OF Great Northern Ore is
going on for good accounts. There is
no danger, as reported. that the iron
ore of the country will be exhausted for
iron and copper ore seem to be the COM
mOnest things in nature.
