10 CHANCE IN THE SITUATION
jnlon Pacific Iron Workers' ' Strike Develops
No Excitement.
IVORKMEN AND OFFICIALS STAND FIRM
; < 'fn nl of Moliler * to flo Out Dampen * the
Ardor or the Striker * , Who Still Claim ,
However , that Alt tin ) Untoiu
Will .loin 'I hem.
Yesterday developed nothing in the strike
t the fnlon Pa-illc shops. The men who
vnlhcd out Monday noon are still idle , but
' .hi ir ranks bane not been swelled by these
so confidently anticipated. The
the moulders to Join the strikers
vas a he-uvj blow to their hopes , but In
pile of tin- setback they Htlll remain llrm
ind uxpn ss confidence In the ultimate suc
cess cf 'I'l-ir effort.
Outside of the almost complete abandon
ment of the boiler shop In the Union Pacllic
yards the casual visitor to the different
shops would hardly have considered that
ono of the largest walk-outs in the his
tory of the system was in progress.
The dead tires in the blacksmith shop was
Mint thing unusual , the lour or live fires
burning giving the Impression that either
the company had materially cut down ex
penses by red HI lug the force or else the
blacksmiths were oil' on a nlcnie.
In the machine shops the busy hum of In
dustry was particularly noticeable ; all the
planers , slotting machines and lathes run
ning In shop No. - . the holt machines work
ing lin'ustriouslj ' , while a complete gang of
men was at work on engine I'll ' , mid a par
tially full gang working on engine nil.
Shop No. 1 showed about two-thirds of the
machines at work , manned largely by jotir-
, neyincn and apprentices who have almost
"completed the period of service , with hero
* nnd there a master machinist to givodlrcc-
t ion to the efforts of tlio workmen , who by
force of circumstances are thus pushed to
the front. Several machinists who went
out yesterday went back to their work this
morning and tins helped to 1111 out gangs that
needed a governing head.
Work Sent to Council lIlnlTn ,
In the boiler shop the apprentices and
helpers , v. 1th the boiler maker or two who
remained nt their tanks , were putting a patch
on the lire box of engine No. - of the Kear
ney & Black Hills division , and it will be
turned out probably today. Running
repairs on engines will bo made for
the present at the round house at Coun
cil Bluffs , where all the men but ono tire at
work Instead of out us stated by a uiorjilng
contemporary.
Moldcrs Will Not Strlho.
The refusal of the molders and cove makers
to Join the strikers was so unexpected that
it da/.cd the other iron workers out , because
Jimmy Young of the foundry shop had
pledged the molders to go out should it be
come necessary.
From reliable sources it is learned that two
ballots were taken Monday night , the second
being largely In the majority against going
out. But how to square Jimmy Young In
the eves of his associates of the executive
committee bescumo more of a bone of conten
tion than the proposition whether to strike or
not to strike. Finally , after a great deal of
t oratory it was decided to give Air.oung u
letter to bo presented to the other orguniza-
Utfiioiis stating that the molders could not bo
Presponsible for the utterances of an Individ- ,
L ual member of the molders organization , for
t the reason thai no authorization of the po-
Ssltion assumed hy Mr. Young had ever been
Imadc. Tlie'y absolved Mr. Young from any
attempt to take snap judgment and then
flatly refused to join the strikers on tlio
Bground that their grievances were of such a
Bnaturo that they could bo setllcd amicably
Bwlth the company. They refused to federate !
because the time was not propitious.
And yesterday the foundry was running
with its full quota of men , the only moldcr
ml being Jimmy Young.
Why They ItcfitM-d.
Ono of the molders in talking about
the reason for their not joining the
jtrikei-H said' "Thcro is n great deal of
dissatisfaction among the men. They have
'ot been fairly treated and Mr. Clark knows
it as well as anyone , hut the grievances are
of such n character that 1 believe they can
Bbo settled by peace I ill means Instead of the
Blast resort a strikn. In my opinion , how-
Bovcr , the ono thing more than any other
that brought the men face to face with the
situation wus the statenienl made to a com-
Binittco from the molders which Mr.
Manning requested to meet him. Ho
B slated that while the men no
doubt know what they were striking for , or
B contemplated striking for , ho wnnted to tell
B them , not as u blutT but us 'way down fact ,
that should the men go out the foundry
would bo abandoned tit this point , tnu f om-
B puny getting its castings done at North
Plattc and elsewhere. Manning was por-
fcetly frank In his statement nnd S'ud that
K It was not made to Influence n single man ,
B but to open the eyes of the malcontents to
Bwhut would assuredly happen did they
H decide to go out. Of course the ; closing of
H the foundry meant Jtisl that many men out
of employment , and would compel them to
look elsewhere. Wo have in the foundry
linen far In advance in years , with families
to support , homes to pay for , and these men ,
when it comes to a showdown , make very
B poor strikers. So tho.N voted that for tin :
B present they would not federate with the
B iron workers , and as you see all the men urc
B at work "
. What thu Sli-IUei-H Claim ,
At Gate Cit.\ hall , the headquarters of the
B strikers tlio men stated positively at I
o'clock jetf tin-day that all trades in
volvcd would soon bo out. They hail
m pone out , they said , al all point ;
9 along the road except at Alblna. Ore. ,
m mid at Omaha The Alhina men wcro , however
over , working upon contract , and had m
m reason to go out Those at Omaha wouUi
probably Join with them very soon. The > j
consisted only of Die molders and thcli
m decision last night w..s HHely to hoover
m turned al any time.
In speaking of the matter in controversy
ono of the delegate ! ! said : "We do not asl

Situation I.UKt Miht.
' 1 he men who walked out at noon Monda

n'l'lko is destined to last qulto u time an
I they mean ti m.iko the best of the sltuattoi
f-iomo of tin : single men , rather than renml

iru'ine of the more prominent leaders ninon
the hlurksmiths , machinists nnd bollcrnml
ors were not nearly so sanguine last night <
L winning thu tight inaugurated Monday , an
do not hesitate to say that they have mule
taken an herculean tusk.
Aro'iml the hcudquurters of the stilkoi

the rumor current during the day that the
men had all been given 'their lima checks ,
said that there was no truth In the rumor
whatever. "None of the men have asked
for their time nnd until they do we would
not think of Issuing their checks.Vo have
not thought of posting a notice In the yards
thai the men can have their time by apply
ing to the oflloe. Wo are running along as
you see and beyond this there Is nothing to
say. "
> o CliaiiRn Along the Line ,
The situation on the system continues the
same as yesterday. Sixteen machinists and
eight boiler makers are out at Laramlc , ac
cording thoofllclals nt headquarters.
At Salt I.-iko the blacksmiths are all out ,
the foundry men being nt worK.
The situation is unchanged at Cheyenne ,
everybody being quiet and peaceable.
At Hhoshone one-third of the machinists
are out , the blacksmiths staying by their
forges' .
At Pocatello all the blacksmiths but three
are al work. At Evanston and Denver the
men are staying by the company.
A consultation was had In President
Clark's room In the headquarters building ,
the members to the conference being Presi
dent Clark , General Manager Dickinson , W.
A. Dcuel , general superintendent of the
Colorado division , and J. H. McConnell.
superintendent of motive power and
machinery. Mr. Chir'.r ' when seen
yesterday afternoon by a representa
tive of Tin : BEE nnd naked to
give some official utterance regarding the
trouble among Iho boilermaUeis , machinists ,
blacksmiths and patternmakers , said :
"Tho trouble extends to only four classes
of employes. While affecting thcso trades
along the line of Iho system , il has nol inter-
feivd with the business of the road or af
fected Its operations. The men have been
and are behaving very quietly , which , of
course , is to be commended. We regret that
they regarded it necessary to walkout. We
heipe matters will adjust themselves in the
very near future. The road is in good con-
dllion. Beyond this , there Is nothing to say
ut this time. "
The very careful manner in which Ihe
"official utterance' ' was framed showed
President Clark to be as deep as the prov
erbial well. Fearful that any remark of his
might ho construed by the strikers as throwIng -
Ing down tlio gauntlet ho simply decides to
say nothing , probably remembering Iho old
adage , "least said , soonest nicnded. "
General Manager Dickinson was ejulte as
reticent as his chief , and when asked about
the outcome of the difllculty frankly ad
mitted that ho knew very lltllo about it.

At the mass meeting yesterday afternoon
ut Washington ball 000 persons were pres
ent. Information concerning the proceed
ings was kept very quiet and the simple
statement was given out that every man
rntitlcd what had been done in relation to
the strike and voted to stand , shoulder to
shoulder throughout the contest. The meet
ing was in session three hours and the door
was closely guarded. A BEE representa
tive , who ascended the stairs , got within a
few steps of the top when ho was unceremoniously
told " . "
moniously to "git.
The executive hoard went into session last
evening at. the Hotel Richelieu at 8. o'clock
and remained until 110. : ! ! When the meet
ing was out Harry Enslon , one of the leaders
in attendance , said : "You can simply say
that wo have received tlio greatest
encouragement from all the men along the
line and that our cause is bound to win. Wo
have got tilings arranged so that no men will
come from the east to till the places of those
who go out. We are simply lighting for what
is right and propose to insist that railway
companies , when they make contracts with
us , shall stand by them. "
Oueof the subjects discussed , sil a reporter
was informed , was the Denver situation and
it was understood that things wei'e tixcd so
Hull the Denver fellows would come to time.
Whether this statement was reliable or not
is a m.ittcrof conjecture.

the strike order Issued some days ago

that the fact did not become public
until late tonight. Several meetings
were held today aiul many of the men
obtained leave of absence to attend them ,
while others quit without giving any' ex

They are awaiting Intelligence from their
representatives who went to Omaha , and If
the strike order is not rescinded the men
will remain out. They assert thai the ap
prentices and helpers in the shops are ready
to go out when requested to do so. None of

Trainmen on thn Santa IV Syntcin llccom-
liiK Uneasy.
Toi'EKA , Kan. , April 18. A sensation of
considerable magnitude was created here
this afternoon when it was noised about on
the streets that a general strike of all the
trainmen on tlio Santa Fo system was im
pending ami would occur tomorrow. The
slight information obtainable indicated thai
the strike would probably not occur tomor
row , but that the difllculty was far from a
settlement.
11 was discovered that a Joint committee
appointed last night by the Jlvoorganizations
of trainmen , this afternoon called upon John
Plajer. superintendent of machinery , and
requested him to inform them whether it
was true that the company had decided to
annul i\i soon , as possible nil contracts with
the organl/ation they represented and make
no new ones. The committee stated they
hud been informed that this was the case
and intimated that unless Mr. Player re
turned a satisfactory answer till the
trainmen on the system would strike at noon
tomorrow , In order that the recognition here
to fore granted their organizations by the
railroads bo continued. Mr. Player said that
the company would surely respect all con
tracts In force with all tlio trainmen's or
ganizations. Whether Iho men consider Ihe
answer satisfactory It is dilllcint to tell as
they are very reticent on the subject.
J'ho trainmen's eupaniznlton will meet
again tonight to receive the report of the
committee. Whether the strike will be or
dered will depend upon the report of this com
mittee. Judging from the meagre Informa
tion at bund it would appear that the strike
will probably not take place tomorrow , but
that the diniculty Is by no means settled.
Tlio troubt all arose over the publication
of a statement that the railroad presidents ,
at their recent meeting In Chicago , had en
10 tered into an agreement to annul all existing
id contracts with members of lalior organiza
idn. tions and to not renew them. The men
n.In were also in.'ormcd that the tight upon them
rn was to begin by the Santa Fo , which would
L-d receive encouragement and aid. if necessary
iw from tlie other roads to bring the llghl to ti
successful termination. The trainmen de
iwK cided to talce the linitlatlve and ask the
K ce.mpan.directly whether the rejiort was
of true , determining to en force a continuance
nd of their recognition as lalwr organization !
by a strike , if necessary. The outcome will
be determined by the committee's report. .

the bills held by the Baltimore gentleman
are valuable only as relics of the early terri

buy up the worthless notes , but the state

Statu Supreme Court AHliud to Define tlio
Sulijiift.
BurFAi.0 , Wye. , April 18. [ Special to TUG
BEE.J Tlio case now before the supreme
court of Wyoming is a most : Important one.
In the last session of the legislature a bill
was introduced entitled "An Act to Define
the Limits of the Judicial Districts of the
State of Wyoming. "
Wyoming at that time was divided into
three Jill icial districts , nnd the title of the
bill mudo no mention of : i fourth. In fact ,
nothing In the title gave the slightest indi
cation of any intention to create another dis
trict or to provide for a new Judge. The bill
was drafted by the gentleman who has since
received the appointment of Judge , and its
passage came as a surprise to ( .very one.
By the constitution of the state of Wyoming
it is enacted In article ill , section 24 : "No
bill , except general appropriation bills and
bills for the codillcation and general revision
of the laws , shall bo passed , containing more
than one subject , which shall bo clearly ex
pressed in its title ; but if any subject is em-
bnr'od in anj act wnicli Is not expressed in
the title such act shall bo void only as to so
much thereof as shall not bo so expressed. "
It is clear that this requirement has not
been complied with , and the legal reports of
states having n similar constitutional proviso
vise , disclose n largo nuinucr of cases ,
wherein noncotnpltanco was held to bo fatal.
The petitioners further contend tnat even
If the creation of the Fourth district is
good , the governor had no power of appoint
ment , because there was no vacancy as con
templated and defined by the statutes. Thi-f
question turns upon much the same point as
that argued in the United Slates se.n.ite ,
with regard to the admission of senators
appointed by governors , i o. , are exist"
and "occur" synonymous terms ? In other
words , presuming that the Fourth judicial
district was legally created , did the vacancy
in the Judgeshipof that district "occur. " or
did It merely "cxistf" To contend that im
mediately the o.tlce was created a vacancy
occurred , would bu like asserting that where
a gaspipe was cast a hollow occurred , or
that building a canal created an empty
space.
Tlio petitioners go further , and siiy that.
oven granting a power of appointment in the
governor , It would only extend to the next
general election , and not for the term of four
years , as Governor Osbonie has made it.
The defect in the title will probably prove
to be fatal to the act , and in that case this
district will have no scssi'm of court until
next November. This will bo an immense
inconvenience and expom > o to the district
involved. A large amount of money , proba
bly over $ T > 0Ot)0 , ) , Is awaiting the decision o !
the district court , and the Jails arc holn
rapidly Illled with cattle and horse thieves.
