Filll Ristgiatiiu if Wages to

ON JANUARY NEXT.
The 5 an«l IO Percent Reduc
tion Canceled.
LouisvillejKy., Dec. 23.—The
18,000 employes of the L. & N ,
ft. R.. will this year enjoy the
most pleasing holiday season
they have known for years, and
certainly the most plea-ant of
the past five.
According to the promise that
if the earnings of the road war
ranted it the remaining 5 per
cent of the 10 per cent reduction
made in Auguet. 1892, would bo
restored at the first of the year
the employes will, on Janmry 1
begin to receive the same wages
and salaries that were paid them
before the dark days of 1893
The earnings of the road in
the past few months have been
sueh as to leave little doubt that
the premised restorati >n would
be made.A reporter was inform
cd at the office of the general
manager of the read tiday that
the restoration would be made.
Th. L. & N. is acting in perfect
jfMd faith with its employes.
Wien the reduetion was fir-t
••nounred in circulars of Au
gust 7 and August 14, 1893, he
men were promised that as soon
as the earnings justified it the
cut would be restored The r -
affected all, from Pivsi
Milton H. fcunith to the
Stablest messenger. The em
ployes acted with rare good
• n??r-’-“'SB»""HeeeeM>eßDrMßei
I
sense. There was scarcely a
grumble. They accepted the de
jcrease a« inevitable aad trusted
to the road to restore it as soon
as possible.
Early in 1898, the employes
had hopes that the restoration,
was but a matter of a short
time. Tua first detilite state
ment, however, was that made
j by General Manager Metcalfe,at
[the meeting of the Engineers’
and firemen’s Brotherhood held
here last February. Mr. Met
calfe told them that part of the
reduction would be restored in
July and the rest as seen as pos
sible.
