inattiiu railroads oi tne west are
threatened with a general strike wus
indicated at Chicago Tuesday by state
ments of Julius Kruttschnitt, vice-prcs
dent of tho Union Pacific and Southern
Pacific roads. According to his state
monts, tho unions hnvo presented de
mnnds that would mean an additional
burden of $50,000,000 n year to tho
western rail roads.
Employes of the rnilroad shops in
cluding blacksmiths, car workers, iron
moulders, machinists, and pattern
mnkors nre said to have presented
demnnds calling for n strict enforce
ment of tho eight-hour day, employ
mont of union foremen exclusively,
various changes in working conditions
nnd moro pny.
" Tho railroads are paying top-notch
wages now," said Mr. Kruttschnitt,
"and tho demands that hnvo been
mado are unreasonable. I am merely
guessing when I say tho plans tho
unions hnvo mapped out would mean tin
additional burden of $50,000,000 a year to
the roads, but it is certain tho addition
al oxpenses would bo largo. V
