.ENGLAND'S RAILWAY
 ENGINEMEN STRIKE.
As Result All Main Lines Are Running Skeleton Trains Today
By The Associated Press.

By The Associated Press
 London, Jan. 21.-England' main
 railways were being run on skeleton schedules today as the result of q strike of locomotive crews on all the lines which took effect at midnight. | The strike, called by the Associated 1 Society of Locomotive Engineers and 1 Bremen after an overwhelming vote of it's 59,0 900 members against accept ance of & reduction in pay decided upon by the railway wages board, is not supported by the national union of railwaymen, the big nationwide or ganization, nor are the railway clerks l involved.
 Strike Is Effected l The locomotive men belonging to the associated society were claimed by that organization to be coming out solidly," and an carly result of their action was to bring about wide curtailment of train service and a re- sort to motor cars by the suburban population in getting to work. The railway companies express the hope that they will get better service go- ing in the course of a day or so, and they congratulated themselves on hay ing delivered London its milk today.
 There was reported to be some dis satisfaction among locomotive mon who are members of the national union of railwaymcn over the attitude of their organization, but the major ity of the 20,000 or S0,000 engine men who belong to this association are de- clared to be obcying tho orders Of their leaders that they remain at work
 Increased Motor Traffic
 The first immediate effect of the strike around London was a consid- erable increase in motor traffic on the highways, vehicles of every descrip- ton bringing into the city workers from the distant suburbs usually serV- ed by tho railway lines. There was also strenuous rush for accommoda- tions on the busses and street cars, these vehicles being packed to the limit from an early hour, with large numbers anxious 10 get to work left standing on the corners
 Such of tho suburban lines as have ff'I flfCltln'u TFtfHllN NfTt Iol dl- fected by the strike, while the under ground lines were running with full services. At the big London railway terminals only few of tho many usual long distance trains got away during the forenoon. Most of the sta tions have long lines of empty cars standing alongside the platforms, 1 some of them with engines attached l where the engineers had left them at | midnight, although most of tho loco | motives were run into the sheds just | before tho strike was due to start,
 Run skeleton Trains
 Reports from the provinces show i the strike to be effective in the busiest | industrial centers. Several skeleton mail trains between the big towns il | tho north midlands and the west of England were run as way trains in- stead of through expresses.
 So far most Of the coal traffic has been cleared between the collierics and the docks
 At Glasgow all the locomotive men | arc out, and it is rumorod that the enc Eineers of the national union of rail- \ waynen there intend striking in sym | pathy, suburban traffic Of other of the Scotch towns has also been tied up, II much inconvenience.

see one seal splendidly trained along

sight.
Such a spectacle is being offered
on the current bill at the Palace.

| High blood pressure Is not disease
but 1t is a sign of something wrong
with the body machinery. Like high
temperature, 1t may be significant or
insignificant, temporary or permanent.
