THEY HAVE GIVEN THE COMPANY A WEEK September's Wages Hold Back from the Men ~Orders from the Tralnmen's Assocl. Atlon on the Subject—What the Rond's OMelals Say. Esmroria, Kan,, Oct. 21.—~A well founded report is current here that a general strike will be ordered on the entire Santa Fe sys- tem if the employes are not paid their Sop- tembor wages by next y. A commit tee representing both east and west divisions of the Order of Railroad Trainmen, 8o it was inadvertently lot out by a member today, wilited upon Superintendent Nickerson and told him the ultimatum of theorder. Anothor condition of the demand was that the wages should hereatver be paid on the 20th of each succeeding month. The railrond men hero say the instructions issued by the order aro positive, and the strike will go into effect if the demands are not conceded. Toreka, Kan,, Oct. 21.--Neither Nicker- son nor I'rey of the Santa Fe are in town, but other oficers deny that a str i threatened, or even remotely looked for. Lewis, Superintendent Frey's chiot clerk, says there has been no provocation for a strike. The men have been paid for August and some of the September pay- ments have been made. In the shops all the men have been restored to the pay roll and they are working longer hours. KATES, Probabllity that You May Travel Cheaply for Somo Time to Come. While the members of the Western Pas- senger association have agreed to restore east bound rates November 1 to the basis that prevailed before the World's fair, and west bound rates November 15, there is no nty that the transmissouri lines will follow suit for some time to come, Jim Hill of Great Northern fame has been an important factor in transmissouri ratlroad circles for a considerable length of time, and through his manipulation of the situation compelled the other transcontinental lines to come to his terms or else stand & protracted rato war, Hill having nothing to lose in the fight. KA: an example of how rates have been cut in this “campaign of education” it is only necessary to state that the old rate from the Missouri river to Denver, firstclass, was $18.15, the present rate in either direction being §0. But the second class rate, forced by Jim Hill on the other transcontinental lines, from the Missouri river to Portland is only $18, as against $35 second and $50 firsy class that existed before the World’s fair opencd. Of course the second cluss rat will be raised, but it is very much doub if the old rates will ever be restored with “China Shop"” Hill in the field, reaching out for the plums in his territory. However, the transmissouri lines might takea whim and meet any day, in which event the old conditions of things might obtain, but that day is not m sight and pussenger men in Omaha do not feel very hopeful of ever sceing the old rates restored. Mr. Lomax said in_reply to the reporter's question regarding the situation: *We are ready to mect the transcontinental lines at any time, but really I have given the ques- tion little serious consideration.” The rates were forced on us and now that they are in effect and busfness good it would seem that, for a time at least, they will continue as now. But it is out of the question to expect @ restoration of rates in transmissouri ter- ritory simultaneously with the rates in the Western Passenger association.” Buriington Wil Close Six Stations on the / Cheyenne Branch.
