Mr. Dillon also asserted that “noth- ing could be farther from the truth" than the impression that the rallways “are trylng to break down the unions, and that they are eager to reduce thé men's wages." Fixes Rates and Earnings. “The truth is we have about all the government in railroads right now that the business will stand, It is the government which says what the rates are to be and how much the roads may be permitted to earn if they can do it; it is the government which controls wages and it controls the conditions under which the men shall work. All the reports are made and the bookkeep- ing of the rafltoads is done according to the rules of the United States gov- ernment through the Interstate Com- | merce Commission and upon forms prescribed by that commission. There is scarcely any item of management not directly under the scrutiny of the government at Washington or Chi- cago. Face New Era. ““We are now facing an entirely new |order, a new labor condition.
