Many clerks In the Union Taclflc head quarters are on the anxious seat, fearing their heads may be chopped off April 1. In response to orders Issued by J. C. Stuhlis, head of the traffic departments of the Harriman lines, Persistent rumors are afloat that several will be let out from the office of the general passenger agent and from several of the different auditing de partments. We will not cut the force In. any of the departments but one," said H. J. Stirling, sudltor ot the Union Pacific, when ssked as to the contemplated reductions. "The auditing department la a peculiar proposi tion In that It haa about as much work to do In slack times ns when the road Is busy. Last fall and summer we added to our forces to care for the new conditiona brought on by the changes In the laws, and some of these extra clerks have already been let out. but no further reductions are to be made April 1. Good Old Times Again. We do not think this slack business will continue for any great length of time and will not cut our regular forces. If we thought the slack business was to be at all permanent we might then look around to see where we might make some saving. In slack times the officers of the road wants reports to see where reductions may be made, more reports than ln times when the road is doing a larger Dusiness, ana these extra reports require men." In response to a query as to whether the rumor was correct that men were to be let out Of the purchasing department Chief Clerk Smith said: "Wo let out a couple of men a month ago and a few in spectors, but we now have nil the work the present force can do.
