He also attended the con ference of the B. of R. T. commit tee with the Union Pacific officials which resulted in thcadyauce in the wages ot the yard men. Through an order issued this week by President Burt, Supt. of Transportation Buckingham prac tically becomes general superin tendent of the Uuion Pacific, and will look after the work tormer'o performed by General Managti Dickinson. The advance in wages given switchmen makes the position of night foreman of the local yards worth $123 per month ot thirty-one one daya and the day foreman $105. In the meantime the salary of the yardmaster is but $100 per month. It ib ptobable that an increase in the pay of-yardinasters will be granted. Since the talk ot a general move ment on the part of railroad em ployes of western roads to secure an increase of wages became com mon, and it was shown that there was considerable liklehood of such a demand being made, many rail roads have voluntarily granted an increase in pny to their employes. This, some employes think, is being done to avert a strike, while others hold to the opinion that as soon as the matter was brought to the attention of the officers of the roadB they saw the justice of the position of the men and at once acted.
