RAILROAD NOTES. (i
Supt. of Motive Power McKeen
came in trom the west &ataraay
morning and spent the day iu town.
Ed Seyferth spent several days
n Sidney last week placing and ad-
UBtmg the new air compressor
which has been installed in the
machine shop nt that place.
The Sidney Telegraph says: The
new boiler lor tuc union i'acinc
e.cctric light plant arrived Wednes

soon as the workmen complete the

Strike leaders claim to have posi
tive knowledge that Uarriman has
giyen orders that no more of the
Southern Pacific engines Bhall be
supplied to t.he Union Pacific. Ten
or twelve ot these cneines Have so
far been received by the latter road.
J. J. Bosko, a Greman between
this city and Grand Island who
fell from his engine at Wood River
last Thursday, is said to be get
tine alornr satisfactorily It was
at first thought he bad received in
ternal miuries in the bead that
would prove very serious
Engineer Fonda and Fireman
Baily who were on engine 1859
when it turned over in the Grand
Island yards last Friday, came back
on their regular run the same even
ing. Both men remained on the en
gine and got out by crawling
through the cab window. Neither
were injured to any extent.
After a conference which lasted
but an hour, between the B. of R.
T. committee and President Burt,
the switchmen on the Union Pacific
were granted the ''Chicago scale,"
which means an increase of about
twelve per cent in wages. Under
the new Bcale, based on a day of
ten hours, day foremen will receive
J3 10, day belperB $2 80, night fore
men $3.30, and night helperB $3 00.
About a dozen men at this point
are affected by the raise.
A New York dispatch states
that E. H. Harriman has lost the
controlling interest in the Union
Pacific, J. P. Morgan and the,
Standard Oil Co, having succeeded
in getting hold ot a majority ot the
stack. This change of the control
of tbc road may result in some rad
ical changes, both in management
and in officials. It is freely pre
dicted that President Burt will be
deposed and that changes .in the
heads of departments may be ex
pected. Reports from the various shops
along the line of the Union Pacific
arc to the effect that the torce ot
strike-breakers is beingdiminished,
tue desertions being greatly in ex
cess of the importations. In the
North Platte shops a number of
men who lctt atone time or an
other since the strike began, have
returned and gone to work again.
The ayerage strike-breaker seems
to be a migratory individual who
makes a "stake," quits work until
he spend his savings and then re
turns to woru. nie greater pro
portion ot them seem to be strongly
addicted to the drink habit.
