INITIATES RAILROAD
 EMPLOYES MAY REJECT CUT

Chicago June S.-Giying warning that the acceptance of wage reductions was in the hands of the rank and file of en- ployes, railroad brotherhood chiefs to- day disclaimed responsibility if the men refused to accept cut and "a stoppagc of traffic resulted. The strike sugges- ton was made by L. E. Sheppard, head of the conductors, and w. G. Lee, pres ident of the trainmen, in opening the Big Four testimony before the railroad labor boards wage hearing today.
 They were followed by W. S. Carter, prsident of the iremen and enginemen, who developed new field of evidence in behalf of the engine service men. Almost disregarding the cost of living and outside wage arguments used here tofore MT. Carter presented voluminous data on the hazards of his mems em- ploymeEt, and on what he called their losing fight to maintain an adequate wage standard. The attitude of the railroads in at tempting to cut wages and the labor boards reduction order of June 1 were declared to be the responsible causes it the train and engine service men vote to strike July 1 when they meet here in conference MT. Sheppard said.
 MT. Carter also made a lengthy com parison with wages in the metal and building industries since 1907 These l comparisons were challenged by John G. 1 Walber, representing the eastern rail- | roads, who spared with the witness for | half an hour over the value of his statis- l tics The comparison, however, MT. Cars- l CT said, was not intended so much to show actual wage relations as to show that the trades had received much greater in- creases in pay in the last fifteen years.
 A mortality investigation in 1913 was ] cited hy MT. Carter to show that the death rate Of firemen and engineers was | So to 90 per cent. above the average cf all occupations. A United States census l estimate in 1908 showed tslat 525 per
