HILL ROADS WILL
INCREASE FORCES
y. Il. AND G.. \. TO ADD 1000 TO
10000 MEN july I UNDER
WAGE CUT.

Minneapolis. June Northern
Pacific and Great Northern road Of
ficials todty announced that, due 10
the wage reduction granted by the
federal railway labor board, they
would put TO work between 100 and
10000 additional men July /. The
announcement followed that of the
500 railroad published in The Jour
nal yesterday, that nearly 1000 men
would be re-employed in July by
that railroad.
The increased force announced
for the Great Northern is in addi-
tion 10 the several thousand that
will 90 back when the car shops are
reopened on July l according 10 the
announced plan when they were
closed June 1.
The decision is a direct result of
the wage reduction, said r. L. Clark,
assistant TO the president, at the
Northern Pacific offices in st. Paul.
today. Although the exact number
can not be determined now. ii Will
be between 5000 and 5000 men, ="
he said "The majority of these
men will 60 into the maintenance Of
way department. OF course, a num-
Der would have had TO be employed
regardless of the wage price in order
to put the tracks in order for fall
and winter business. But the reduc-
ton will allow of a much larger
number to be employed profitably.
Common labor was reduced 8 cents
an hour. With 5000 men, this
means to the road s4O0 an hour, or,
in the 8-hour day, $4,000 a day.
THE total payroll of the road
now is s4,500, 900 a month. The re-
duction will net more than s45O,-
900 a month deduction from the
payroll"
G.. R. Martin, vice-president of the
Great Northern, said the cut will al
low the road TO add to its mainten-
ance of way force in the extensive
manner that it has wanted 10. Just
what the figure will be of the men
that we will add to the force is hard
TO say exactly" Mr. Martin said,
"but it will run into several thou
sand. This will be exclusive of the
number that will go back TO work
in the car and locomotive repair
shops when they are re-opened July
1. The reduction will have the eff
feet of making no doubt that we will
be able to reopen these shops as
originally planned on July 1.
1--WE shall stiffen up all depart
ments, particularly in ballasting
work, rail laying, and tie repair.
"The labor boards cut will deduct
between $4,000 and 100000
from our monthly payroll" George
II. Hess. Jr., controller for the Great
Northern, said "At present, the
road is employing $4,000 men"
A total of s2.00O,000 a month ap-
proximates the amount that the
100. 900 employees of railroads in
the northwest will have deducted
from their pay checks as the result
of the IL per cent cut, effective July
1, officials said.
To the Chicago, st. Paul, Mime
apolis & Omaha railroad, officials
said, the monthly saving will
amount to s1S6,000. About 5000
employees of the road are affected,
about 1850 of whom are in st. Paul

Gets Power without Coat.

Gets Power Without Coal.
A large paper mill at vargp, Sweden,
was recently rebuilt on the most Inn
proved lines. Formerly 5000 tons Of
coal were consumed annually, and the
problem Of maintaining this supply
was very serious one, but at. the
present time no coal whatever is con-
sumed at the plant. The boilerhouse
contains seven electric" boilers, each
of 5000 horsepower, and the current
enters the boilers at. a pressure of
10000 volts, without having to be
stepped down. Each of the boilers is
provided with three electrodes, and the
coupling arrangements are such that
steam generation can be regulated
within 5 per cent. It is stated that
full steam pressure can be raised in
from five to ten minutes after switch
ing on the current. and considerable
economy in attendance is obtained, as
compared with coal firing.

FIGURED IN HISTORIC. PAST
Representative Of Monarch sos the
Time Of Abraham Now in
Pennsylvania Museum.

In the dim old days Of the patriarch
Abraham people looked very much as
they do now, judging from the oldest
representation Of human figures I'M
earthed by the toiling brotherhood Of
psychologists. Two striking figures,
one standing and one seated, are in
cluded In the elaborate design, of the
clay seal. or postage stamp" which
has excited the enthusiasm Of DR.. Le-
grain, curator Of the Babylonian sec
ton of the University of Pennsylvania
museum. ~.
DIR. Legrain has figured out the in
scriptions of the little, tablet as indi-
eating that it dates from the period
when Cur Of the Chaldees," mentioned
in Genesis in connection with the his
tory of Abraham, was flourishing
kingdom. And he finds reason to be-
lieve. that the seated figure, decorated
with founces Of beautiful ACCORDION
plating, is portrait of his majesty
Ibi-Sin, the last king Of Ur and pos.
sibly an intimate friend of the Father
of Israel.
To the modern eye both figures are
remarkably well drawn and lifelike
in attitude, especially considering the
fact that they were modelled In clay
on very small scale. DR.. Legrain
thinks the tablet served the double
purposeof a seal and postage stamp
on sack of money forwarded to q
banker named Shulpae by his rever.
ence the high priest of the temple Of
Ur, at which Abraham worshiped.
