Efforts of labor leaders to consolidate
the department employes organizations
of tho Illinois Central rnil road and other

said by railroad officials to be responsi
ble for tho talk of a strike. Tho var
ious Unions are now said to bo voting

tho demand for a federated organiza
tion shall bo insisted upon. The samo
question is said to be involved in the

.In speaking of the dismissal of Union
Pacific employes, the Omaha Bee says:
While officials aro noncommunicativo,
tho opinion prevails around Union Pa
cific headquarters, that in the event
that business picks up most of the em
ployes who nro to bo laid off will be
restored to tho full time nnd their old
places early in October. This restora
tion will npplv to all clerks and em
ployea between Omaha and Ogden,
with tho possible exception ot the men
on tho section. Thoro nro some per
sons here who blame the local officials
for tho retrenchment policy being
adopted. Thoy, however, havo had
nothing to do with it, nsido from car
rying out tho orders of officials higher
up in tho service. It is contended,
however, that tho retrenchment at
this timo is no greater than usually oc
curs every fall after tho rush of busl
ncss censes, the only difference being
that now the employes- aro laid off in
what might be considered n wholesale
manner, whilo heretofore thoy have
beon laid off singly, or a few at
timo.
