SAYS TELEGRAPHERS
WAGES ARE TOO LOW
President of Western Union
Company Before I. R.
Commission
1
Chicago, Apr!? 12.—President New
cam Carlton of the Western Union
Telegraph company, and S. J. Ivonen
kamp, president of the Commercia.
Telegraphers’ Union of America, today
testified from their respective view
points before the United States Commis
sion on industrial relations regarding
wages and working conditions of com
mercial telegraphers.
Carlton caused a mild sensation when
lie said he believed telegraphers were
underpaid.
He added:
“I think they ought to make more
nutfiey than they do. Ten years ago a
Morse telegrapher received $18 a week:
it is now $23. Tt was $13.50 for women
and it is now $18. My own view is that
a 40irst class telegrapher should be able
to earn at least $5 a day of nine hours.”
The witness said bis company bad
one of the best pension and relief or
ganizations in the country and it cost
the men nothing. Half a million dollars
was expended on it last year, he said.
The witness’ opposition to the or
ganization headed by Konenkatnp, who
followed him on the stand, was plain in
various utterances.
"We are subject to the control of the
interstate commerce commission,” said
Carlton. "They absolutely fix not only
our practices but our rates. I believe,
therefore, the commission should be
given sufficient power to see that fair
wages were paid and that fair working
conditions were provided.*’
Policy of Company
"The policy of the Western Union,”
Carlton said, "is formed by the execu
tive committee.” Jacob Schiff, a mem
ber of that committee, was quoted by
Chairman Frank P. Walsh as having
said that no self-respecting employer
would refuse to deal with the repre
sentative of union labor. "Is that your
opinion?” asked Mr. Walsh.
”1 believe in the organization of la
bor."
“And in collective bargaining?”
”Jf collective bargaining is where the
organization with whom you are deal
ing is a responsible one—yes.”
The witness said that in the five years
he has been with the company there has
been no union of telegraphers, which lie
considered qualified to represent them.
His policy with the men, lie said, was to
allow an appeal of all grievances. Teleg
raphers have been dismissed from the
company for activity in union affairs, he
admitted. He said that special agents
were employed to'keep the company in
formed, hut denied that “spotters.” as
Konenkamp designated them, were per
mitted to use questionable tactics in ob
taining information.
Education a Solution
Chairman Walsh asked Carlton if he
had any remedy for industrial rest to sug
gest.
“I do not think there is any panacea in
tlie way of legislation. I think education
is the only thing that is going to do that.”
Konenkamp in his testimony has re
ferred to some of the methods of tin*
Western Union as “criminal” and the con
dition of the operators as “slavery. ’ He
estimated the number of commercial tel
egraphers employed by the Western Union
and the Postal Telegraph company at 20.
...
I 000. His union, he said, had agreements
with the Canadian Pacific, the Interna
tional News service and the United Press.
These, he said, recognize the principle of
collective bargaining and adjustment of
grievances. He declared that wages were
lower now than they were 40 years ago.
He said the tendency was to lengthen
hours.
The constant opposition of the Western
Union to unions is no surprise to us,”
said Konenkamp. "The company has been
consistent in that for 50 years, and for
30 years the possession of a union card
has been the signal for dismissal. They
have employed criminal methods, or at
least have turned their heads away when
criminal methods were employed. Cor
respondence of the union was stolen from
one of our men at St. Paul and the heads
of telegraphers began to fall as the re
sult of information thus obtained con
cerning the organization. My own room
was ransacked in St. Louis. Kansas City,
Denver and Salt Lake City.”
The witness*said that his remedy was
government protection of the right of rneu
to organize and to bargain collectively."

BRINGS GOOD PRICE
Interesting' Experiment Made on
Drove of Cattle Raised in
Madison County
St. Louis. April 12.—(Special.)—An inter
esting experiment in southern cattle feed
I ing was concluded here last week when
the Canton stock farm of Madison county,*
Mississippi, sold a drove of steers to the
packers at $7.35 per cwt., a good price.
There wore 75 head in the drove and they
averaged 1024 pounds. The cattle dressed
5S per cent, which compares favorably
with the carcass figures on beeves led in
the corn belt.
Professor S. S. Jerden, who is conduct
ing feeding experiments in Mississippi for
the United States Department of Agricul
ture, had charge of the handling of this
drove of steers. The cuttle were divided
into three lots, one being fed cotton seed
meal, another cold pressed cake and silago
and the third lot cotton seed meal, corn
and silage. The gains were practically
the same In every instance and the cattle
all sold at the same price, $7.35. This
shows that all three feeds are rations
well adapted to southern conditions.
Professor Jerden accompanied the ship
ment of cattle to the St. Louis National
stock yards and watched their slaughter
at the big Swift & Co. plant here. "There
is certainly a deep interest manifested in
livestock production and feeding through
out the state of Mississippi," remarked
Professor Jerden. "The importation «»f
legietered bulls and high-grade breeding
stock has been in progress for some time,
and I will venture the assertion that in
the course of a very short time Mississippi
will range among the foremost cattle
states in the union."
| the Competition
The street railway is paying ap
proximately $72,000.00 towards the •
First avenue viaduct. It built the
Twenty-second street viaduct and
in the past few months has expend
ed on this viaduct approximately
$12,000.00.
The five-cent bus uses or will use
these accomodations without bear
ing any of the burden.
Is the competition fair?
