M|SMANAGED RAILROAD
REASON FOR POOR WAGES

CHICAGO, Jan. IL. E. Shep-
pard, president, Order of Railway
Conductors, scathingly arraigned the
management of the Mississippi Cen
trail Railroad before the United States
Railroad Labor Board.
In quiet and dispassionate voice
and manner Mr.. Sheppard marshaled
facts and figures to show that the
Mississippi Central is one of the worst
managed railroad properties in the
United States.
Mr.. Sheppard appeared before the
board as spokesman for the con-
ductors and trainmen, who are seek
ing to compel the Mississippi Central
to pay the same wages to train serv-
ice employees as are paid by other
southern railroads. There are only
four railroads in the South now pay
ing wages below the established
standard rates, Mr.. Sheppard said.
The argument of the Mississippi
Central that it is unable to pay the
wages asked is met with the charge
that Encouragement is the reason.
Mr.. Sheppard presented figures of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to show that the hazards of employ
ment on the Mississippi Central are
two and three-fourths as great as on
all other southern railroads and three
times as great as on all of the rail-
roads of the United States, that be-
ing the ratio of accidents and injuries
per ton mile. Mr.. Sheppard also pre-
scented figures to show that wages are
tagging far behind in the increase of
operating costs.

 Young Leonard of WalIIngford, scored a technical knockout over Humbert Brady, of Syracuse, in the fifth round of their schedule six rounder in the semi-hnal.

MULLINS SILENT
 UNTIL APRIL lST
Will Not Even Discuss Fighting Until Then

New York. March 27,-Paddy Mullins manager of the negro heavy weight, Harry Wills. has closed tho doors upon boxing discussions until April 1, a date upon which any thing might happen.
 Mullins, called at the office of Tex Rickard, promoter, yesterday and is said to have been promised more money for his boxer In a match with Tommy Gibbons of St. Paul than he can hope to obtain if Wills meets the champion, Jack Dempsey. The man. ager asked few question and made few statements.
 Officials of the milk fund show, which will be staged here May 2S made 1t very plain that the Gibbons Wills bout was desired but Mullins failed to show excitement, contend ing that Gibbons has been beaten by the champion and has lost deci- sion to the middleweight king, Harry Greb of Pittsburgh. while Wills has conquered every man he has been permitted to meet since becoming a contender for heavyweight honors.
 Mullins insisted that he would prefer the Dempsey fight regardless of purses and said that he expected the champion to say something for himself before many days. The let ter of Jack Kearns, Dempsey's man. ager, he regarded as worthy of little consideration.
 Promoters of the milk fund show confident that neither Kearns nol Dempsey will be heard from b, April 1, expect Mullins to return te another conference on the matter within a week.
