TRAINS RUN LATE
 THROUGH NEW LONDON


 There is no distress in the ranks of the striking, railroad shop men at New London, according to their publicity com mittee It. is reported that none of the strikers are going hungry and that none are being put out of their houses tnas- much as their rent is being paid The strikers claim that the New Haven road is short of motive power and that the officials are at their wits end to provi1e engines to move trains.
 Through the publicity committee the strikers reported several engine failures Sunday and Monday passenger engine 1908 and switch engine No. 2393 were delivered out of the Wragg shop at G'-ot- on as O.. K. and both were returned Saturday as not fit to use.
 Train No. IT, the west bound Federal express, Sunday night was one hour and 20 minutes late and No. 1. the midnight express out of Boston, was 30 minutes late. Train No. IFS, east bound New England express, was 25 minutes late Monday morning and the east bound Federal express tried to change engines at Providence, but the engineer refused to take out a freight engine.
 Three different engines were put on an east bound freight train at Midway Mon 1 day morning and in each one a defect was found so that the locomotive could not be used. Engine 3314 had a zsrate
 down, 1922 had a fire door off and on | 3306 the stoker was defective, with the result that the train crew was outlawed 1 Because of disconnected ashpan on engine 1345 the engineer of = freight train refused to use the engine, which had a federad defect and the engine was
 used on the Seashore express.
 Railroad officials stated Monday that the situation is unchanged. The rail-
 road repair shops and the Wragg shop at Midway have large forces at work. | The shopmen declared that some idea 1 of the excessive wages that the railroad l is paying as a result of the strike may
 be g,eaned from the following state ments: "One new mechanic, who sub i stituted for one of our men, last week ' drew $S7 as his weeks pay. He was l working from a. m to o'clock D. nl.,
 at the Midway plant. They have since cut his hours so that his schedule is from 1 10 a. m. to : p. m. with a resulting g 1 shrinkage of wages.
 ''The average earnings for the me 1 chanics working there at the present l time is from $70 to sS0 per week. One
 of the men who pulled out from Midway
 a few days ago stated to us that for four days his wages amounted to s44 1 and that he was working from fl t3 16 hours daily while at Midway.
 'The car foreman's check for the month, including the bonuses paid him, | amounted to approximately $500. One | boilermaker who divmgeo the amount ! of his earnings at Midway stated that lis l envelope contained SIS for the week.
