Western Union Denies
Refusal to Follow
Labor Boards Order

NEW YORK. July THE Western
Union Telegraph Company has issued
a statement in connection with the
strike of telegraph operators called by
the Commercial Telegraph Unicn for
July s. 1t says in part:
THE Western Union Telegraph
Company has SO far not declined to
follow the instructions of the national
War Labor Board, with which we are at
variance.
"An order has been issued to West
ern Union employees to strike July 8.
There will be no response to this or
der. for the reason that our employees
cannot be misled at such time as
this and because they are not mem
bers of the union. .
"A union without membership in our
forces proposes to declare strike in
order that the government employees
handling commercial messages may
sympathetically strike. The situation
has no importance save in it's novelty.
The prime object which the union
seeks to accomplish is now being
carried forward by Western Union
employees. creating their own associa-
ton with unrestricted rights as to
collective bargaining. working condi-
tions, compensation, etc.

MARKET IS VERY SLOW.
LEADERS ARE STRONGER

NEW YORK, July AT the immedi-
ate opening the market showed lit
tie hesitation. but nothing more than
might be expected. after such a weak
market as Mondays. The news was
favorable from abroad, but very many
traders seem to have made up their
mind that the new tax measure will
leave small profits for corporations
and may cause many reductions in
dividends. especially in extras.
Moreover. the Investigations of the
Federal Trade Commission are de-
veloping some matters that may have
enough influence to seriously increase
certain sections Of the tax measure.
Gathers Strength Gradually.
Soon after the opening, the market
gradually gathered strength and Mex
ican Petroleum. Distillers. Atlantic
Gulf and West Indies and Steel COM
mon rose about a point.
Baldwin Locomotive. Crucible Steel,
Anaconda, Smelling and Sumatra To-
bacco showed some gains and dis
played considerable strength. Motors
were rather soft, also Bethlehem b.
and Lackawanna Steel.
Later in the session American To-
bacco lost two points and Western
Union IL. while United States Steel.
Baldwin. Republic Iron and Steel and
Tobacco Products moved up to better
than a point net gains.
Rails were decidedly slow save for
an occasional trade in Reading, which
scored point gain.
At no time was there any show of
activity in the market, dullness being
one of the most noticeable features of
the market.
Liberty 31ss sold at 995S to 1852:
first As at 94.02 to 94.18, second As at
"a to 1920 and ANS at 96.1S to 96.32.

Five Months U. S. Control
Reveals s1os, s,1e6,836 De-
crease in Comparison.

Reduction of $10S.196.s39 in operat-
| ing income of 1913 of the largest
railroads during the first five months
| under government control. compared
with the same period year ago, was
announced today by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
In May, the last of the five months,
the roads were beginning to recover
from the paralyzing effects of bliz-
yards and embargoes, and the operat-
ing income rose to a point nearer
last years figures. For the nve
months the total was s1S6,9S7,144,
! compared with $295,1sa970 during
that period last year, and for May 1T
| was s64,276.s05. against $76,290.6a0
| last May.
Revenue Actually Greater.
In spite of the reduced operating
income revenues of the roads ac-
tually were larger for the five months
! this year than last. They were ST.
se02s2,620, compared with $1,274,970,
4es. giving margin which was more
. than eaten up by increased expenses.
For May operating revenues were

nue. from railway operations during
May. 1918. the commission found, was
is77,1O1.S13. only s10,0O0,060 below the
net revenue in 1917, which was $751;

Mays Net Income.
In reporting the figure on which
government compensation is based,
which is the railroad operating In
come less certain debts for equip
ment and joint facility rents. the COM
lmission found that the net income Of
the 1913 railroads for May, 1918. was
s61 ,oo2, ,511, against s75,570,s22 in May,

Operating income Of the eastern

the operating income figure for the
previous year.

ported by the commission, is the net
figure between operating revenues

HONORS PAID GEN. BROWN
PLEASES SOUTHERN BOYS

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. Sit looks as
if the old Eighty-Second Division,
trained at Camp Gordon and officer
ed by Southern boys, is goig to come
out of the war with as many bright
stars i'll its armament as any outfit
overseas.
The latest officer of the division to
come into reewed prominence is Ma
jor-General Preston Brown, who a
year ago was lieutenant-colonel and
chief of staff of the Eighty-Second.
Under his direction in this capacity
the foundation was laid for the organi-
cation of the division at Camp Cor
don.
General Brown has now been made
military governor of Treves, Prussia,
which the American army of occupa-
ton has just taken over, and the an
nouncement of his appointment to this
important post will be received with
keen interest by his many friends
throughout the South.
