TALKING OF A STRIKE The employes of the Pennsylvania Railroad object very .strongl • to the i proppsed reduction of 10 per cent, of ' their wages which will go in o effect. June 1, and there is some to k of a strike if the. reduction is . ehforced. Officials- of the railroad say that ‘ thc total amount saved to the , company by the reduction is estimated at $l,: 500,000 annually, of which the lines east of Pittsburgh - will be affected about one-third. They claim that the action has been literally forced upon the eompany by the prqstration - of business, and is taken as much in the interest ofthe employes as the com pany - itself. No exceptions will be made in the,reduction, blit it will af fect every person, from the President downwarkwhose salary exceeds the limit kescribed in the fesiiolution. . • , G. W.
