RESIDENCE BADLY
DAMAGED BY FIRE
7. E. CUSHENBERRY'S HOME
ALMOST DESTROYED. 9TH
Err HOMES ENDANGERED.

The residence section of the south
eastern part of the city was threatened
Thursday afternoon when flames which
burst from the roof of Mr. J. E. Cush-
enberry's home were famed by a stiff
breeze, which made the work of the
fremen in getting the blaze under
control very difficult.
The fire was discovered about one
O'clock by some one passing, and be-
fore the FIRE company could reach the
scene great volumes OF smoke were
pouring from the building and the
flames had spread rapidly over good
portion of the roof and eaten their
way into two looms, destroying much
of the weather boarding on one side.
A large part of the household furnish
ings were considerably damaged in be-
ing removed so hurriedly.
Mr.. Cushenberry only short while
ago bought the property from the Wall
estate, and moved his family here from
Kentucky. The building is a ten-room
structure, and Mr.. and Mrs d. V.
Willis occupy an apartment on the
west side
The extent of the damage has been
estimated at between $500 and $4,000,
with $4,000 insurance
The fire is supposed to have been
caused by a defective fue, and had
probably been smouldering in the cell
ing for some time before bursting
through the roof.
The work of repairs will begin as
soon as the matter of insurance can be
adjusted.

Mutual Understanding Reached
on Regulations and Work.
ing Conditions.

Notice has been given to the United
states lSailroal Labor Board that the
Pennsylvania railroad and the repre-
seatatives OF its employees in engine
and train service have mutually
agreed on regulations and WORKING
conditions affecting these employees.
The employees concerned are the en-
glnecrS, firemen and hostlers. con-
ductors. .rainmen and switch tend
srs, numbering more than 10000 on
the entire system.
These regulations We're negotiated
hy the representatives of the employees
and the representatives OF the man
ageniont who are members o. the joint
reviewing committee of the Pennsyl-
vanla system. This committee was
established early this year for the
settlement OF all controversial cues
tons involving the employees in en-
gine and train service. The eight
REPRESENTATIVES, OF the employees who
SIT on this COMMITTEES and who nego-
tiated the new regulations with the
management's representatives are the
system general chairrnen of the four
railroad bTutherhoods.
The new regulations and working
conditions are in the form OF a sys-
tenn schedule for the employees CON
cerned. Heretofore the men in engine
and train service have been working
under two different schedules, one Tor
xhe former lines east and one for the
former lines west. There were many
paipts OF difference between the two
schedules and many questions in
VOWED in each of the two schedules
themselves, due to The fact that prior
10 and during the war the two parts
of the system were not operated as
4 unit.
When the PENNSYLVANIA railroad re-
suIned the mana cement Of its prop
erfy March T. l920. however. the sys-
tenn was reorga nized as a unit with
four regions. when the employees IN
engine ard train service requested
that a system schedule be established
which would harrnonize the differ
er,,es h.twecn the existing schedules
and settle points OF controversy with
IN tie schedules themselves, the mem
bcrs Of the joint reviewing commit
