Will \Viit.
The Switchman's union held their regular
meeting In Central Labor hall list evening.
The mooting was. of course , n secret one ,
but Mr. Trunk Swcony , grand master of the
Switchmen's union , consented to make a
few statements to a Bci : reporter.
Mr. Sweeny said : "bomo time during
February wo instituted a ledge at Lincoln.
There were twelve of the switchmen in the
13. > t AI. employ who were chaitcr members
of the lodge. The rallioad ofllcials upon
he inn g of this ptoinptly discharged these
twelve men without giving any reason for
their action.
"This light was started hi * the non-union
men who wanted to join o'ir older , but If
they did , so would lose their positions
These men considered the matter of joining
lodges or boncllt societies puicly pci.oual
matters and refused to bo dictated to by the
B. & r I. management In that respect. The
consequence was the strike. From what I
hear I understand ourcausois spreadingand
It probably won't ho long before it will betaken
taken up by the switchmen of the other
raids , who will refuse to handle B. & M.
freight.
"General Manager Holdiidcro appears to
ho In sympathy \\lth ns as Inr as talking
goes , but his subordinates continue to dis
charge mon who Belong to or join either our
ledge or benefit ussoclntioii.
'Tho condition of affairs on the B. ft M.
s\stoni , is something horrible. Tlio breakage
in the yaids is awful and all caused bccauso
of the action of thn munagnmont , As it is ,
the don't for the '
men care conipinv't prop
erty and onU tiy to hold their places , Sev
eral freight conductors and urakcmcii at
Lincoln quit w oik today in sympathy with us.
"To my personal knowledge overtures have
boon mndo b ) the ynrainusti'M to switchman
to return to work , the only stipulation being
that they tcnvo the order. I think our cause
is rigliUmd I think wo shall win. "
A trio to the freight yards late last night
showed overi thing to ho quiet and a dctuch-
mcnt of policfi under Sergeant Whalcn on
guard In case there is nny troublo. No
tioublo Is expected , however , as the strikers
nro conducting themselves In a qulot , orderly
manner.
Yesterday morning ovm thing scorned to
bo moving along binoothly In the B. it M.
yaids.
W. A. Austin , locil freight agent , stated
that no trouble hnd boon experienced In getting -
ting nil the men they wonted , and all the on-
Bines had full crows Ho wns at a loss to
account for the strike , as the mon had made
nodomand whatovoron thocotnpwy , norhnd
they made nny complaint. Thorolmd boon no
trouble , and n person not informed of the fact

Mr. Austin further stated very emphat

been no distinction ImUvoon union and non

force took place thorn hud boon no men dis
charged in the Omaha yard.
