Handle No Slow Freight
on Sunday as Business
Returns to Pre-War Basis
All slow freight business was sus
pended on the Philadelphia Division
of the Pennsylvania Rialroad from
midnight Saturday until midnight
last night, thus furnishing another
evidence of the return of the freight
business to a normal basis.
Dur: ; the continuance of the war
in order that the abnormal demands
on the railroads might be met, there
was no cessation in the carrying of
freight business. These conditions
have since .passed, and it is now be
lieved that no slow freight will be
hauled on the division on Sunday, as
bad been the custom before the war.
Railroad Notes
The employes of the Reading di
vision of the Reading Railway Co.
will be paid for the last half of Janu
ary on Thursday. The shop men
will also be paid this week, when
more 'than $210,000 will be dis
tributed among the men In the dif
ferent departments.
A number of the locomotives of
the Reading Railway Company em
ployed in the freight and coal serv
ice are now being whiteleaded, as

Four months in the workhouse and
a fine of S2OO and costs was the sen
tence imposed on each of six Phila
delphia. Baltimore and Washington
Railroad employes, at Wilmington,
Del., convicted of conspiracy to rob
freight cars. The arrest of the men
came about as the result of more
than thirty robberies as cars in
transit.
City Treasurer Conrad J. Hill, of
Hazleton, received a letter from the
federal railroad administration In
which it was stated that lie could
turn in his bills for taxes of employes
to the paymasters, as usual, for set
tlement. This reverses the order
that is on file at Hazleton and Maha
nov division headquarters of the Le
high Valley Railroad, forbidding any
stoppage of wages due railrbaders.

Two Philadelphia Division
Men Serving Last Month
as Active Employes
Two employes of the Philadelphia
division of the Pennsylvania rail
road have entered on their last
month of service and six others are
serving next to their last month as
active employes of the transportation
company. Of these, three are Har.
risburg men.
The Harrisburgers are£ Alexan
der H. Eastright, of 531 Fefter
street, who will be retired March
1, and James Brady, 1732 Green
street, and Alpheus H. Baldwin, 202
Hamilton street, who will be retired
on April 1.
Mr. Eastright and Patrick J.
Roundtrce, of 524 Old Lancaster
road, Haverford, are the two men
who will be retired at the end of
February's days. Mr. Eastright, 70
years old, has served the Pennsyl
vania railroad for forty-three years
and nine months. He is a freight
conductor. Mr. Roundtrce, also 70
years old, a maintenance of way sig- [
nal fitter, has been in the company's
service for twenty-four years and
four months.
The longest service record is held j
by Mr. Baldwin, a passenger con-]
ductor, who has been an employe of (
the railroad for fifty years. He is
70 years old. Mr. Brady, a passen
ger engincman, while serving the
Pennsylvania railroad forty-five
years and ten months, is but 65
years old.
The other four employes to be re
tired on April 1 are:
Charles L. Springer, 69 years old,
passenger conductor, of Paoli, with
forty-six years and 9 months serv
ice: Aldus Rynicr, 70 years old,
maintenance of way laborer, of
Blackhorse, Lancaster county, with

car cleaner, of Downtngtown, with
forty-six years and four months
service, and Jacob Weaver, 70 years
old, motive power laborer, of 529

Consider More Pay For
Terminal Freight Agents
A committee of inquiry, represent
ing the terminal and freight agents
ot the United States, with G. W.
Phelps of Cincinnati, 0., held a con
ference with the director general at
Washington, D. C., last week, regard
an increase in compensation which
will affect from 4,000 to 8,000 em
ployes throughout the country, and.
if the increase is granted, add mil
lions of dollars to the administration
payroll.
According to the committee the ob
ject eft tlje visit is to find out whether
these terminal junction freight
agents are to be penalized because
they represent a body of employes
who have so far refused to organize
and make demands for additional
compensation, but have preferred to
leave the justice of their claims with
the Washington officials.
They point to the fact that station
agents and all classes of railroad em
ployes have organized and received
increases amounting to more than 50
per cent; also that some of the em
ployes whom they employ as part of
their forces now receive more money
than they do.
In this connection special mention
was made ot general .yardmasters,
and the fact that they now get more
money than the men who hire them.
With the recent increases even chief
clerks with overtime to their credit
receive more than their chiefs.

RULES STRICTLY
28 Middlo Division Employes
Dismissed For Negli
gence
With the acute labor shortage in
cident to the 'war past, Pennsylva
nia Railroad officials are bending
every effort to increase its grade of j

more strictly. Evidence of this is
found in the Middle Division discip

twenty-eight men as being discharg- |
ed for various violations of the rules. I
This is the largest number of men to
be discharged for many months.
Thirty-six men were suspended and
twenty-three reprimanded for vari
ous reasons.
Twenty laborers, five machinist
helpers and one boiler washer were
dismissed for insubordination in re
fusing to work as ordered, one yard
brakeman for failure to respond after
being called for duty and one yard
brakeman for drinking intoxicating
liquor.
One passenger brakeman was rep
rimanded and notified that in the
event of a fine being imposed he will
be required to pay it for failing to
stop his train for loading mail.
Eight trainmen were suspended for
periods ranging from two days to a
month for not being on hand when j
wanted. One freight engineer was
suspended for thirty days for sleep
ing on duty, resulting in a collision,
while sixteen brakemen whose trains
figured in collisions were suspended
