"DEAD MAN'S OUTFIT" 4 IN RAILWAY WAGE CASE Motormen Ask for Same Wages as Steam Engineers Claim Hazard Greater. Chicago, Feb. 8. "A dead man's outfit" la the name given by motor-men to the control on electric locomotives which automatically shuts off the current and applies the brakes If the motorman takes his hands from the controller while on duty.

The apparatus was described here today before the board of arbitration In tbe western railways wage case by R. E. Hewitt, master mechanic of the electrified line of the Southern Pacific. The engineers and firemen demand among other things that motor-men be paid the same as locomotive engineers, the rate of pay be based upon the rate of tractive effort of the cars. In presenting their side of the case, the engineers that the hazard on electrio locomotives wa greater than that on steam engines.

Hewitt testified that tbe hazard was slight and that the size or the electrio engine does not Increase the work of tbe motorman. Whether the power be small or great the motorman' work Is the same. He simply moves the control leaf Mr. Hewitt said. "Hef keeps his hand on tbe controller to keep the contact," said the witness.

It Is what we call a 'dead man's If he faints or drops dead and bis hand leaves the controller, it springs up and the current is Interrupted. The brakes are set too." OH, CONSISTENCY! THOU ART A JEWEL Riverside Park Association' Tells About the Election Tomorrow. We have a dread of anything resembling an attack on the cause of Christianity. The fact that hundreds of those supporting ths park have contributed of their funds snd time to every church, and the M. C.

A. In Hutchinson, carries the conviction that they have nothing In common with an attack on a Just cause. However we do resent the cowardly attempt to make this cause their refuge In the misrepresentation of facts and Individuals. Diplomacy should compel them to keep within tbs bounds of reason. If they would inspire any deiree of confidence.

What Is right and wrongT Who Is the Judge? Conscience, some will tell you. Hundreds of people who have looked at the question from all angles are In favor ef sustaining the park Ss an Inntltutlon, and conscience tell these earn people, among other thing, that It la wrong to keep card in the house.
