The officials started from their Chicago headquarters this morning and expect to go over the entire Monon system. They are stopping at all the stations and are making a general tour of inspection and aim to become personally acquainted with employes all along the line. Incidentally they are paying off all employes for the first time in’ thirty years. Heretofore all salaries have been mailed. It will probably take them four days to cover the entire system.
