creased Rates Necessary.

ot western railroads will tile with the
United States rail labor board a peti
tion asking that the board annul an
agreement entered Into Decern her Id

cision was forced upon the railroad
"under threat ot an interruption ot
transportation" and declares that
"other railways may also be forced, in
order to avoid Interruption of trans
portion service, to make similar
settlements." The petition further
sets forth that the settlement direct
ly tends to make necessary an ad
vance In railway ratea In western ter
ritory. The managers call attention to an
order ot the board dated November
29 covering the dispute between most
ot the western railroads and tho
Brotherhood ot Locomotive Engineers
and Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire

board awarded an Increase of about
( per cent In wages but mad this In
crease conditional upon modification
ot working conditions and rules which
the railways contended were restric
tive and unnecessarily Increased oper
ating expenses.
The committee says that the South
ern Pacific settlement was made with
out reference to changes In rule au
'provided in the detlsion of November
