PENNSY GIVES
NOTICE OF WAGE
CUT ALL ROUND
Indianapolis Force of 2,300
Persons Affected by
Announcement.
CONFER FIRST ON PLAN
Advance notices of a general wage re
duction In all departments of the Penn
sylvania Railroad, and which will affect
the entire Indianapolis force of the com
pany, amounting at present to about 2.300
persons, were announced today by the
board of directors of the Pennsylvania
Railroad.
Before the reductions go In effect, or,
In fact, before the amount of reduction
can be determined. It will be necessary
for the railroad management to meat
with the various unions affected by the
proposed cut and to reach an agreement
with them.
SETS OUT CHAXGB
IN CONDITIONS.
The statement made by the board of
directors aets out that reductions are
made necessary by changed economic con
ditions and that there already has been
a reduction of about 70,000 men in the
personnel of the force. It was explained
by local Pennsylvania officers that the
reduction here has amounted to about six
hundred men.
It Is further stated that at present It
takes almost the whole current earnings
to pay current operating expenses and
that in February 70 per cent of all earn
ings of the roed were absorbed In charges
for labor, against a normal charge of
less than 50 per cent.
“In making a readjustment of salaries
and wages It Is but fair and proper that
the burden should be borne by all offi
cers as well as employes,” the statement
says.
SEVEN POINTS
CONSIDERED.
In making th* readjustment of wages
and salaries seven points will be consld- ;
ered as follolws: The scale of wages
paid lor similar kinds of work in other
Industries; relations between wages and
coat of living; hazards of the employ- j
ment; degree of responsibility; training
and skill required; character and reg- ■
ularity of employment; inequalities of in
creases In wages or of treatment as a
result of previous wage orders or adjust
ments.
It is stated that In effecting these re
adjustments all steps will be taken In
strict accord with the transportation act.
NEW YORK CENTRAL TO
FOLLOW PENNSY LEAD
NEW TORE. March 10—The New York
Central. It Is reported early todsy, will
follow the lead of the Pennsylvania Rail
road and announce a drastic program of
retrenchment. The New York Central
already has given notice of a wage re-s
ductlon to Its unskilled labor. This re
duction is to take effect April 1. It Is
now prepared. It was reported, to an
nounce further reductions by which
$500,000 more will be removed from its
monthly payrolls. Office employes, from
the highest executives to office boys, will
be effected by the new cuts.
Railroad officials conversant with the
situation throughout the country, de
clared that practically every railroad in
the country is preparing drastic cuts in
operating expenses. They said the situ
ation was snch that the railroads sim
ply have to take action to counteract
the drop in revenues due to the slump in
business that followed the Inauguration
of higher rates. /
Already several of the principal roads
have held conferences with
tlves of their employes at which the roads
presented schedules calling for reduced
wages. In each case the employes' rep
resentatives took the announced reduc
tions under advisement. There has been
some talk of strikes, but railroad officials
believe the wage reductions will be ac
cepted.
WILLARD SAYS B. & O.
WAGE CUT NOT DECIDED
BALTIMORE, Md, March 10.—In a
statement made public today, Daniel
Willard, president of the Baltimore A
Ohio railroad, declared that his. road had
not decided to cut wages generally.
In the course of his statement he said,
however, readjustment of railroad labor
cobdttions ad wages are necessary ulti?
mately in order that the railroads can
be operated under the present"rates. He
expressed the belief that revisions of
wags must come, but that the question
win be settled without stopping the
railroads.

The defendant lost her Initial nerv
ousness as the examination proceeded.
Her main effort centered on keeping her
mother buoyant. Occasionally she pat
ted her mother’s hand, smiled at her
or whispered to her. But the mother
stared vacantly.
STATE TICKS 1* MEN
IN IIOCR 10 MINUTES.
It took the State one hour and twenty
“'auLS to select twelve tentative Jur
ors. The State examined twenty venire
men. The chosen twelve all said they
were impartial.
Among the tentative twelve were seven
farmers, two factory workers and three
business men. D. F. C. Laughrldge, 73.
and James Avery, 78, were the oldest men
chosen. They could have been exempted
from Jury service because they were
above 60, but they did not ask It.
Self-defense will be the defense, it was
made certain when Attorney Champion
in his examination asked each if he be
lieved In the right of every one to de

400 MURDER FANS
JAM COURTROOM.
Over four hundred murder fans were
jammed in the courtroom. The stales be
tween the pews were filled with extra
1 chairs.
Among them were many wealthy oil
men, friends or bitter enemies of Jake
Hamon. These millionaires bumped
shoulders with women, cowboys and In
dians.
Jake L. Hamon, millionaire and polit
ical power, was shot Nov. 21 at the Ran
dol Hotel, Ardmor*. He walked to a hos
pital. where he die! five days later.
Clara Smith Hatnon, his companion for
ten years, with whom he lived at the

She was charged with his murder and
returned to give herself up.
At her trial the will bare the intimate
details of her life, whose dizzy career
was stopped by a bullet.
The defendant entered the court with
ler aged mother who sat beside her.
They were accompanied by the counsel
for the defense and her sister. Mrs.
Myrtle James of Los Angeles. She kepi
her handkerchief at her mouth as sue
nervously twitched. Her smile was gone

SAYS SORROW SOLE REWARD
OF PHILOSOPHY OF UNGODLY
By CLARA SMITH HAMON.
(Copyright, 1821, by United Prese.)
ARDMORE, Okla., March 10. —Sorrow
Is the sole reward of the philosophy or
the ungodly.
Those who take the cue of "Eat, drink
and be merry, for tomorrow ye may die,”
for their part In life think they are
happy. But It is only the deepest of
sorrow in the guise of temporary bliss.
This Is usually realized when the tragic
crash comes—then it is too late.
This Is the lesson I want the readers
of these lines to draw from the strange
case of Clara Smith—a clerk In a coun
try store ten years ago and now with
a servant wish that she was still back
in humble Lawton.
Back In the days of my early youth
a man came Into my life —but I'll skip
over the story—the world knows It only
too well.
It Is enough for you to know that I
am today charged with murder; that I

You are wise; you take what the gods

You ask no questions, but rest content.
So I am with you to take your-kiss,
And perhaps I value you for this.
For this is wisdom; to love, to live.
To take what Fate or the gods may give.
"To ask no question, to make no prayer,
To kiss the lips and caress the hair.
Speed love’s ebb as you greet Its flow —
To have, to hold, and, in time, let go.

paigns. “Talk about your Chief Perrott
administration. That ain’t nothing to
what this one is and Is going to be before
they get done. The Bell-Perrott admin
istration nerer Jumped on the people who
put them In office like thls'one Is doing.”
Several commltteiunen commented on
threats of Ralph Letneke, county treas
urer, and one of the triumvirate In con
trol of Republican politics In Marlon
County for the last four years, bas made
to “take away the boards" of committee
men who don't "play ball” the adminis
tration way.
It always has been the custom In both
leading political parties for* the city
chairmen to name men on the election
boards who ure suggested by the precinct
committeemen. This gives the precinct
committeeman an opportunity to pass out
a little patronage now and then and to
help perpetuate himself in the office of
committeeman.
By "taking away the boards” the ad
ministration means that City Chairman
Irving W. Lemaux refuse to honor
the recommendations committee
men opposed to Mr. Howe's candidacy
and appoint as precinct election officials
in the coming primary only men whom
the News-Jewett machine Is certain will
help them In the election of Mr. Howe,
the eommlttemeu said.
“Let 'em take away the boards.” said
Beverly Howard. “They've tried that be
fore and I've licked 'em every time. W hat
we've got to do is to prevent them from
stealing this election. We've Just got to
do the thing that's right this time."
Several committeemen asserted that it
was not fair for the police to "lay on”
negroes who are not working for Mr.
Howe and then let Rufe Page and Bam
Lancaster, uegroes who are said to be
strong for the Irvington professor, run
their gambling joints wide open without
molestation of any sort.
The workers commented upon the
that Hays Wilson, negro contractor, for
merly one of Beverly Howard's lieuten
ants, has a “soft” contract for cleaning
the wails at the city hall. This, they
said, is a movement engineered by the
mayor and Robert H. Bryson, city con
troller, and the mayor’s representative In
dealing with negro workers who refuse
to have anything to do with Dr. Furnlss.
to get Hays Wilson to work against
Howar 1 In bis home precinct. The cnia
mitteeinpn said they expect to see Hays
Wilson appointed on the election board
in this precinct, and expect him to work
for the interests of the administration
candidates in such capacity.
Samuel Lewis Shank held the first noon
meeting of his campaign at Klnggn’s
plant yesterday. Approximately 1,590
workers gathered to hear him. His talk
was confined to the city administration
and devoted almost entirely to the tre
mendous expenditures of the last year
as revealed by the report of the con
troller.
Mr. Shank pointed out that the bal
ance left in the city treasury at the eud
of the year only v.as made possible by
a great increase in the amount of taxes
collected and asked his audience to. con
sider that the administration had ex
pended a'most three million dollars more
tlinu In the years previously and had not
even undertaken any public work that
would represent something bought with
the taxpayers' money. The crowd wa
as wildly enthusiastic as those which
have heard Shank heretofore.
SHOW HOOSIER
GEAR MACHINE
Cutting Apparatus’ Merits
Exhibited to Experts.
A demonstration of what the Steveifi
son multiple gear tooth cutting machine
can do was given yesterday afternoon
before a number of manufacturers and
mechanical engineers at the temporary
home of the Stevenson Gear Company at
942 Daly street.
The machine Is the invention of G. E.
Stevenson, secretary of the company, and
work on the Invention was begun In a
small sbop in Lafayette, Ind. Eventually
the invention gained the recognition of
many of the leading meebauleal engi
neers.
At yesterday's demon'vtratlon there
were short talks by Elwood Haynes,
president of the Haynes Automobile Com
pany of Kokomo; K. T. Wlngo, pr&sl
dent of the Superior Machine and Engi
neering Company, who is consulting en
glm-eff of the Stevenson Gear Company,
end ex-Oovernor Ralston!.
When Mr. Stevenson went to Europe
to obtain the patent rights there, accom
panied by Mr Wlngo and Mr. Ralston,
the machine was examined and approved
by some of the foremost foreign eng},
i peers.
As was pointed out yesterday, the ma
! chine ruts all the teeth of n gear at the
; same time, and does so with speed as well
as with great accuracy.
The company will move from Its tem
porary quarters to new quarters, in a
three-story building, at Cornell avenue

In this same connection the board to
day granted Valparaiso University recog
nition. Recognition was withdrawn some
time ago until the school could come up
to standards-required by the board. Os
car Williams, who has charge of the In
spection of these Institutions, stated that
Valparaiso has greatly Improved and sug

ever, the school will lose its recognition
Sept. 1, if it cannot meet the endowment
requirements.
The textbook contract controversy
which ■ agitrfted the State Senate and
which resulted in a long Investigation
by the Senate Committee on Ways and
Means without any action being taken,
ended quietly and peaceably so far as
the board was concerned. L. P. llenezet
of Evansville, a member of the board,
merely moved that the contracts be
signed by Superintendent Hines and that
Mr. Hines be Instructed to fix tbe bonds
of the companies. The motion was car

VOCATIONAL WORK
TO BE CURTAILED.
Curtailment of vocational educational
work will be necessary as a result of the
action of the Legislature in granting a
vocational levy of only one-half cent. Dr.
W. E. Stone, president of Purdue Univer
sity, told the board. He said it would
be necessary to hnlt all plans for the In
crease of vocational Instruction and In
soma cases it may be necessary to cut
down work now under way. The board
asked tho Legislature for a 1-cent levy
to carry on this work.
In making his monthly report, E. A.
Wreidt. superintendent of vocational ed
ucation, asked the board to authorize th®
employment of an assistant vocational
director to have charge of vocational re
habilitation work. The Legislature made
provisions for the State to use Govern
ment funds and State funds In this work.
The rehabilitation Is to ne applied to
persons injured in Industry.
The vocational committee of the board
was authorized to employ such an as
sistant and was Instructed to determine
how much of a cut will be necessary In
vocational work in the State because of
lack of appropriations.
The board on motion of Dr. Stone sent
a resolution to Governor Warren T. Me- I
Cray suggesting that the salary of
Demarchus C. Brown, State librarian, be
Increased. Mr. Brown now receives $2,500
a year and the Legislature refused to
grant him an Increase. The proposed in
crease would be paid out of the Gov
ernor's contingent fund.

In hospitals are many women whoare there for surgical operations,and there
is nothing a woman dreads more than the thought of an operation, and the
long weary months of recovery and restoration to strength if it is successful.
It is very true that female troubles may through neglect reach a stage
where an operation is the only resource, but most of the commoner ailments
of women are not the surgical
ments, tumors or growths, although the symptoms may appear the same.
When disturbing ailments first appear take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound to relieve the presant distress and prevent more serious troubles.
In fact, many letters have bean received from women who have been restored
to health by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound after operations have
been advised by attending physicians.

The board engaged in an extended dis
cussion tn an effort to define industrial
art without reaching an agreement. The
law provides that the board shall adopt

books were adopted bids for industrial
art books were rejected because the board
did not believe that any of them were
suitable and because it could not decide
the question of Just what industrial
