Nickel Plate firemen receive an increase in wages
Nickel Plate firemen are granted about a 10 percent wage increase effective June 1, with extra staff added on several divisions. Superintendent Blair notes the raise aligns with broader wage hikes for employees and may shift duties such as lamp maintenance to the new relief staff. Reports also outline extensive Pennsylvania Railroad relief fund expenditures since 1889, including April payouts and death benefits.
