REPORTS DOG RAB|D

Last Monday Sheriff Nicholson re-
ceiyed a telegram from DIR. Z. Rec
ord, head Of the state biological de-
partment at Reno. saying that the
head of the dog sent from Ely last
Saturday showed the animal was af-
feeted with rabies. The telegram was
followed by a letter, which was re-
ceived by Sheriff Nicholson Tuesday
night. in which DR.. Record says:
Confirming our wire of even date
an examination OF the brain of the
dog forwarded by you showed the
animal to have rabies. AS l under
stand 1T no human beings were ex-
posed to infection by this animal. sc
no apprehension need be felt on that
score. ANY dogs exposed should
either be destroyed or kept securely
confined for about ninety days, a;
the end of which tine there will be
little or no danger of their develop
ing the disease"
The dog referred 10 is the one
which ran amuck in Ely last week
and was shot after it had bitten sew
eral dogs. The county and city of
feials have taken action toward con
trolling the situation, while the own
ers Of dogs known or supposed to
have been bitten by the rabid animal
are keeping their pets closely con
fined. Orders have been issued thai
all dogs he kept muzzled and dogs
not so protected will be shot or

NEVADA NORTHERN RAILROAD
AND EMPLOYEES ARE At OUTS

Developments of the week in the
wage controversy between the Nevada
Northern railway management and
the local railway shopmen eliminated
Tuesday in lockout by the railway
company of nine shop workmen who
declined 10 sign an article of agree
ment setting forth the railway com
panys wishes. Four employees of the
company, not classed rs shopmen or
skilled mechanics, signed the agree
ment aud have been retained in EN-.
ployment On Thursday nights train
there arrived six men, the party said
to include a boilermaker, Il machin-
ist and blacksmith, with their help
ers, all of whom went 10 work Friday
morning for the railway company and
who have since remained at work.
The railway company's stand in the
controversy was set forth in the News
two weeks ago. as embodied in an in-
terview with George l.. Hickey, gen
cral manager for the company. The
question hinges principally on the re-
fusal by the railway company to pay
back wages in accordance with re-
cent decision of the United States
railroad labor board, the disputed
wage being OF certain dates and the
entire question leading back for a
matter of two years
The shopmen have announced that
on the part of the employees there is
no strike and that any such action
was neither anticipated nor thought
of The rate of wage is said to have
Ieeu satisfactory and according 10
the shopmen. but for the request on
the part of the railway company for
the shopmen TO sign an agreement
distasteful to them and viewed ar
affecting their rights as workmen and
citizens. there would have been nc
walkout or trouble and the shopmen
would have been willing to await ae-
tion as 10 the back pay from other
and outside authority aud abide by
the final decision.
Tuesday morning the following let
ter was submitted TO the shopmen by
General Manager Hickey;
'Messrs. A. g. Strange. c. H. Hol-
land and Dan Bascom, Shop Commit.
