Managers Say Employe Have Every
thing: to Gain and Xothlng to
To?e, and Hope to Win by
"Splitting Difference."
NEW YORK. May 1- Managers of
Eastern railroads, in a reply to the
Order of Railway Conductors and the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, to
,ar refused the men's demands for
higher wages.
It was announced today that another
ronferer.ee of representatives of the
railroads and of the trainmen and con
ductors would be held tomorrow, when
the men will make response to the re
ply of the railroads. It was reported
that new demands had been formulated
by tha men. but A. B. Garretson. who
has been acting; as spokesman for the
employes, said It was not their Inten
tion to draw up a revised set. Mr.
Garretson will reply orally to the rail
roads at the meeting; tomorrow, and
afterward a formal reply In writing:
will be sent to the conference com
mittee of railroad managers.
Iirrtm Meaaa FIT. OOO.0OO,
"Tha wagres and working; conditions
which you request." says the reply,
would increase the pay of the 100.
000 conductors and trainmen of the
railroads In the Kastern district by
approximately 117.000.000. or 30 per
cent per annum. The Increase would
be equivalent to placing; on these prop
erties a lien of $485,000,000 of 4 per
rent securities, which have preference
over first mortgage bonds.
"If the railroads are forced to pay
extravagant wages to men In train
service, the burden must fall on the
public
"Already the traffic of a growing
country has overtaxed the existing fa
cilities and the heavy burdens Incurred
through 111-advlsed legislation, such as
extra-crew bills for which the Broth
erhood of Railroad Trainmen Is alone
responsible have forced on the rail
roads, and consequently on the public,
needless expenditures of millions of
dollars annually.
Demands Deemed Toe Pressing.
"All of these factors are making It
Impossible for many of the roads to
provide those facilities which prudent
foresight demands and which the in
terests of the public require.
"In making demands for extrava
gant wages wages entirely out of ac
cord with tha railroads' obligations as
a whole railway employes apparently
act on the assumption that a strike
would never be permitted by the public.
They seem to Jhlnk that If a strike Is
to be avoided, the railroads must give
way that the public will force them
to give way. believing that arbitration
must take place, and that In the end the
splitting of differences between what
they demand and the wages they re
ceive will result In their favor.
"In other words, the employes have
everything to gain and nothing to
lose."
$1100 SOP CAUSES ARREST
Efforts to Indemnify Two Murders
leads' to Capture oT C Chinese.
Alleged efforts of the Hop Sing Tong
to "square" the murder of Chung Ab
Gong and Lem Chee Foon. who were
killed March 1? In a tong war out

enor and Abbott arrested Wong Ting
Lock, supposed head of the local Hop
Sing fraternity, and a - Chinese who

to have come to Portland recently from
Seattle. The two men were reported
to be engaged in negotiations for the
payment of $1100 to the relatives of
the two dead men. Wong Ting Lock,
representing the Hop Sings, and Ab
Jim being a go-between.
The panic of the Hop Sings, follow
ing vigorous police action after the

to be the reason the Hop Sings are
willing to pay $1100 to the Bow Leungs
to quiet the war.
