Tho Milwaukeo freight agents have notic that tho Lake Shore and the Nikel Plate rail- ronds will accept transfers of grain at Chi- cago. T'he Baltimore & Ohio Is prepared to receive a limited amount of grain, but must have advance notice of consignments General Freight Agent Crosby of the Bur- lington returned yesterday from Chicugo, but he was unable to give any encouraging news of tho car blockade. Some railroad wen in Chicago thought it would be raised in fifteen doys, and others not for thirty, so it seems to be largely a matter of speculation. Mr. Crosby heard a rumor that tho Nickel Plato would receive consignments of grain, but hehad oo official uotice to that effect, nd he thought there were enough cars already in Chicago to gorge a singlo eastern lino. Without having the data at hand for veference, hic presumed the Burlington had 2,000 to 3,000 cars of grain standing on sive thacks in Chicago awaiting transfer into cars of castern contections.

Union Pacific shopmen are reported to be grumbling about their pay. When thoy wero worling ten hours a day they quit ut 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon, but got pay for that oft hour just the samo. They wro now working a half day on Saturday and eight and a half bours on other days, and they urs only paid for the number of hours the; actually put in. Naturally thore is somo dis- satisfuction at losing the pay for an oxtra hour. The grievance has not taken tangible form, however, and it hus not been brought ofticially to the attention of the superintend- ent. In somo eastern railroad where the emploves quit at 5 o'click on Saturday ufternoon, they make up that time by having the noon hour eut short ten minutes each day. % In tho case of the Union Pacific, that hour has boen a gitt to its employes, and it caino about in a rather curious wa, Some twenty years ago a custom was inaugurated at theso Bhops of stopping work at 5 o'clock on Satur- day to give the men an hour for cleaning up the machinery. It did not require ail the employes to do this, but they were ail at- lowed full time. Pretty soon the men who had to stay aud wipo the machinery began to grumblo bocauso others could o tomo at o'clock. The result in time was that work after that hour was abolished and the full pay went on. Frod Whita y's Successor.
