TROUBLE LOOMS UP
tray mi SLaluoad Mm Daaaaad aa la
st
Oakland, Cal., Oot. 24. According
to Interviews obtained today by a
Tribune reporter with heads of rail
road unions, and unlou members, a
demand will oe made upon the
Southern Pacific within the next
thirty days for Increased wages,
which will effect more than 30,000
e uployes. Both the men and union
o llcials are loath to speak of their
clius and purposes, but admitted
that a concerted demand was to ie
nade, not only upon the Southern
.Jacific company, hut upon twenty
;wo other roads west of Chicago for
increased wages. During the last six
mouths the membership of one union
of Southern Pacific employes has in
creased over 100 per cent. That or
ganization is the United brotherhood
of railway employes.
It is estimated that before the
first of the year on the Southern Pa
cific system alone there will be 250,00
members.
The chief cause of the demand is
the Increased cost of living. The
men assert that they are paying 30 to
40 pre cent more for house rent and
the necessaries of life. They also re
cite that all the railroads are doing
from one-fourth to one-third more
business now than formerly, and
that their profits are correspondingly
larger.
The third reason given is that
owing to the heaver equipment in
use bv nearly all the railroads the
employes are compelled to do more
work than formerly. . -f?.,
Waa Justified In Killing.
Chicago, Oct., 24. After nearly a
week of trial, followed by only fifteen
minutes of deliberation, a jury Id
Judge Brentano's court has returned
a verdict of "not guilty" in the case
uf Edward Conghlao, charged with
the murder of Chas. O. Harz. The
twelve men agreed without any de
bate that it was a case of justifiable
homicide.
Coughlan was a cabman without a
dollar except his salary. The mn
he killed was a liveryman aud is re
puted to have left au estate of over
1400,000.
The trouble between Harz and
dugbaln began when Coughaln re
iiorted that he had driven two pas
sengers about the down town dis
tricts and had been unable to collect
a fare of IT. Harz is said to have
been abusive and finally said he
would deduct the amount from the
pay of the driver. Then Coughlan
is alleged to have said: "I will put
you where the grass will grow over
you before I'll lose that money."
The driver then left tbe barn and
it is said bought a revolver. He re
turned to tbe office of Harz and de
manded S60 which be claimed to be
due him as back pay. Harz refused
to give him any money and denied
that there was any credit for Cough
lan. A dispute followed aud Cough
lan shot and killed the older man.
The threat to kill Harz and the
subsequent purchase of the revolver
caused the state to ask tje death
penalty. The driver pleaded self de
fense, alleging that he was first at-
ackod by Harz who seiztd the spoke
of a wagon wheel which be kept in
tbe office as a weapon.
