FULL TEXT OF
THE NEW SCHEDULE
SIGNED YESTERDAY MORNINQ
AND IS NOW OPERATIVE.
Review of the Whole Set of Rules
Showing How tho Wages of tho
Different Men on the Several Dlvls-
ions Aro Affected Nearly Evory
Conductor nnd Brakemnn Is Grant
ed n Substantial Increase in Wages.
Committee Is Congratulated on All
Sides for Its Effective Work.
When the Tribune's mnimnry ot the
new schedule of rules Tor tin conduct
ors and trainmen on the LackuwamU
came to be read nrd discussed ester-
day morning, tho men affected were
unstinting In their prahes ot the effec
tive wotk done by theii Joint commit
tee, and of the ety generous treat
ment accorded them by the new man
agement. An Impression had gained ground
that because the new management's
watchword was economy, tho wages of
tho employes would bo skinned to tho
lowest limit ns a flist frtep In c.urylng
Into effect the llgld economical policy
agreed upon The committee lepie
sentlr.g the employes went Into the
conference feeling that they would be
called upon to usp tho man extreme
measures to vecuro what they consid
ered would he n fair schedule They
came out ot the conference declaring
that they wer" granted "quite as much
ns they asked and more than they ex
pected." nnd universally praising tho
courtesy and falineF3 of the officials
Thej aiso came nwnv firmly Impressed
in tho belief that in General Superin
tendent Kussell and Superintendent of
Ti.insportatinn Daly, the Lackawanna
has two of the cloetest railroad men
In the business.
CAME HERE IN JlE.
The committees of the conductors'
and trainmen's orders came here dur
ing the second week in Juno and each
hrent a day In ai ranging the details
for their sessions. Returning here on
June IS they entered upon the prepaia
thm of their schedules, each noting in
dependently. Before many days had
passed It was seen thnt it would ho the
course of wisdom and expediency for
b..th committees to act Jointly and
after several conferences this was
agreed lo,
ji schedule was completed and tho
chairman of the lespectlve committees
John Finnerly of the conductors and
George M. Wallice of the trainmen,
waited on President Truesdalo to fix
a date for a conference.
A elite was set, but in the Intcium
Mr. P.usfcII was appointed general su-
peilntendcnt nnd the- whole matter left
to him for settlement.
The committee met with him In July
to acquaint him with the terms of tho
schedule and then adjoin ment was
made to August ?3. Ow Ing to the fact
that the engineers were in conference
at this time, the conductors nnd traln
mfn did net bejln their conference until
three days later. Since August 28 they
have been In continuous session. They
feel parttlcularlv proi.d of the faot
that thev affected a settlement without
having to appeal to the president and
without any assistance fiom the na
tional officers of their orders. Giaud
Chiefs Clatk and Morrlssey wore called
here as much out of courtesy as any
thing else. Both ofllcers approve of
the committees work and congratulate
them on the success attending it.

against $70 under the per diem system.
Huns making less than .100 and mora
than 2,000 miles will draw $87.90, ns

On runs which cover less than
4,000 nnd more than 3,000 miles, t o

The stnndnrd late of nay under tho

three and one-tenth cents per mile.
The ten hour day Is granted to nil
except "yaid" and "hill" crews These
latter have a twelve hour day, with
one hour lay-off for meals.
In computing the pay the following
rules obtains: Ten hours constitute
a day's work. A run of one hundred
miles Is likewise considered a dny'fl
work. If the hours exceed the mll
eago the hours are to be taken ns the
basis for computation. It tho mileage
exceeds the hour, then the mileage Is
to be the basis of computation. If a,
man luns one hundred miles In five
hours he gets paid for one hundred
miles Just the same as If It took him
ten houis to make the tun. If ho only
runs fifty miles, but It took him live
hours and major fraction of another
hour to make the run he gets one hun
dred miles for It. In other words, a
live hour nnd thirty minute run en
titles him to ten hours pay.

committee men were attached to two
copies yesterday morning nnd the con
ference was adjourned with a season

Increase in wages means ai ,iddition..l
annual expendltuie of $1250, bit. tli.it
In due time this amount will he le
