    THE OMAHADAIIiYfj BEE : SUNDAY , JULY 8 , 1891 ,
had been through a baltla when they dis
embarked at the Dearborn street lUtlon.
Their Uniforms wore torn , hats gone , th y
were covered with dual and dirt , and manr
of them had been badly bruised bjr flying
stonen.
"I believe , " Bald Superintendent Atwaler ,
"ihat t leant a dozen men wcro killed. I
HAW men strewn oil over the tracks , and
they wore dead men , too , The mob was
not far away when we began to fire , and
for about three minutes the mllltla , the
deputies and the police , who fought Ilka
dovlls , wcro Dimply pouring lead Into that
, crowd. Wo were close enough and the
'mob was big enough , and t don't think
many bullets went wide , Thcro were moro
killed than wo will ever know about , "
The statement * of Superintendent Atwater
us to the number of men shot down are up
held by the militiamen and deputies , many
men declaring that they had scon the
ntrlkcrs carrying away men who were either
dead or wounded.
The Injured men whoso names are given
were brought to the city by the police and
placed In the hospital. The report of the
fight occasioned great excitement nt army
headquarters , and the request of Police
Inspector Hunt that several companies of
regulars and a Galling gun bo sent out to
the sccno added to the feeling. The mob
became quiet n evening , however , and the
regulars and artillery wcro held at the
depot all night.
At 9 o'clock tonight n mob of 2,000 or
3,000 collected at the scene of this after
noon's flght. They set lire to several cars
and thrco or four wcro burned before tha
flro department reached the scene. The
flames are now under control. A report was
In circulation In the stock yards late this
evening that Rome of the socialistic clement
among the mob associated with strikers have
proposed to throw dynamite bombs Into the
camp of the mllltla after the soldiers have
retired to rest. This report has created
considerable excitement ,
POLICE DRIVE BACK THE MOB.
As the train with the military aboard
pulled out fully 20,000 ( people crowded about
the handful of police left behind. From all
Bides they rushed upon them , hurling stones
and Iron In their mad assault.Tho men ,
realizing their position , drew their revolvers
and backed up against each other , prepared
for a desperate battle. The crowd halted
for a moment , and Officer Hyan , breaking
.through , hurried to a patrol box and called
the patrol wagon. Lieutenant Keleger and
twelve men responded. In the meantime the
crowd had closed again about
the pollco , following them with a volley of
stones. The work that had been
done by the wrecking party was attacked
as the pollco retreated. A car was sot on
flro , the switch closed and broken and rails
torn up. An alarm of lire was sent In and
with It a second call for pollco assistance.
Loorala street , the heart of the anarchist
settlement , was crowded by a howling ,
shrieking mob. The patrol horses were
urged through It , the crowd sullenly part
ing. Without flinching they clubbed their
way through to their fellows and then all
started back against the crowd. At the
eight of the reinforcements the crowd fell
back. Each officer evidently thought his life
was In danger , and without any order they
raised their weapons and fired as fast as
possible directly Into the crowd , which wav
ered and then -beat a retreat , first replying
to the unexpected rain of siiot wltb a shower
of Rtoncs. As they retreated , leaving several
on the ground , the police followed with
clubs , showing no mercy. At every step
they knocked a man down , and as they ad
vanced the crowd showered stones on them
llko hall. Rushing Into nearby saloons , the
mob barricaded the doors and made a stand ,
but wore driven out through windows and
back doors llko rats , clubs descending on
their heads at every jump. Windows
in the houses adjoining were suddenly
thrown open and a volley of shot was poured

CHICAGO , July 7. Chicago has taken on
a very warlike aspect. What , with the fed
eral troops , the United States marshals , the
mllltla and the pollco , the guardians of the
peace are visible everywhere. On the lake
front Is a camp of regulars , with pitched
tents and stacked arms and patrollng sen-
trios. Surrounding the postottlco Is another
smaller camp with a half-dozen tents and a
threatening patrol. Detachments of troops
are marching and artillery and cavalry mov
ing constantly.
The strike Is the topic of conversation
everywhere , and all sorts of wild and Im
possible stories are afloat.
A largo number of factories have been
closed owing to lack of coal and Inability
to ship goods , , and this has thrown a vast
horde of employes on the streets to swell the
crowds and Increase the disorder. Every one
Is on a tension and expecting bloodshed at
any moment. Mobs gather every afternoon
and attempt to stop the outgoing and In
coming trains , and as night goes on they
grow boisterous and begin rioting. They
overturn freight cars to block the tracks ,
and as soon as darkness sets In they start off
In small squads , setting flro to the cars
standing In long lines In the railroad yards.
Tills Is kept up throughout the nlglit until
early morning , when from sheer exhaustion
they Ho down In the streets and vacant lots
and go to sleep.
EARLY WORK OF DESTRUCTION.
As a conscqucnco the forenoons are usually
quiet. Today proved an exception. The mob
was up and at Its work bright and early.
In solno places they began the attack at 5
o'clock.
Today's Incendiaries began In a brand new
quarter , the Chicago , Burlington ft CJulncy
switching yards , Just west of the Hawthorne
race track. Fully a dozen freight cars In
the yards were burned bright and early this
morning. At daylight the destruction of the
cars was complete.
Serious trouble was looked for today at
Forty-eighth street and the Grand Trunk
tracks. A mob that gathered there this
morning threatened to burn the round house.
The building was surrounded and a move
toward the threatened destruction was ex
pected at any moment. Colonel Moulton
and forty men of the Second regiment , Illi
nois National Guards , was sent to the scene
to guard the building and yards.
At 11 a. m. It was reported that a mob was
firing cars and other property on the Chicago
& Northern Pacific railroad near the western
city limits. Five companies of United States
troops from the lake front were at once or
dered to the grand central depot to take
a train to the scene of the trouble. The
troops wcie marching through the streets
within ten minutes after the call.
Serious rioting was reported about 11 a.
m. on the Grand Trunk road In the vicinity
of Elsclon. Deputies and police were called
for by the railroad authorities. Rioting was
also reported to have -been renewed this
morning on the Burlington tracks at the
Western avenue crossing. The property of
the railroad company , It was stated , was
being flred right and left.
A few moments after 11:30 : this morning a
mob numbering GOO tore up the main tracks
of the Panhandle road at Fiftieth street.
The pollco charged them , but were met with
a volley of pistol shots. The police refrained
from returning the fire , but succeeded by
repeated charges In dispersing the crowds.
The Second regiment went to Forty-soventh
street to act as a guard for the Panhandle
tracks.-
ONI3 MAN WAS WOUNDED.
Intent on destroying freight cars In the
Monon yards at Sixty-fourth street , a mob
gathered In that district at 5 a. m. today.
The rioters started for the yards and a oall
was sent to Englewood pollco station for
help. Forty olilcers were sent to the yards.
Their appearance did not frighten the
strikers and they continued their march.
Orders to disperse had no effect upon the
men and several shots were flred Into the
disorderly ranks and the men fled. One of
their number was struck by a bullet from
Sergeant Bruton's revolver. The wound
was apparently not serious and the man was
hurried away by his friends.
Symptoms of disorder were frequent today
ut all points between Forty-ninth and Flfty-
flfth streets , In the Stewart avenue district.
Pollco ofllcers , detailsof mllltla and federal
troops wcr scattered along the line. At
Brighton Park a squad of police were on
guard under command of Lieutenant Walsh
with orders to shoot at the first attempt of
the rioters to destroy property.
About 8 a. m. a mob of about 600 strikers
captured a Baltimore & Ohio wrecking train
at Fifty-ninth street. The train crow fled.
IT WAS AN ACCIDENTAL KILLING.
Richard Zeef , a Baltimore & Ohio em
ploye , also a United States deputy marshal
was killed at the Grand Central depot last
evening by the accidental explosion of a
gun. William Martin was seriously wounded
at the same time.
Before 10 a. m. officials of the Grand Trunk
telephoned the police that large mobs of
men were moving down their tracks In the
direction of their shops at the crossing of the
Panhandle tracks at Forty-ninth street. They
expressed the belief that the mob Intended
burning their shops. Chief of Police Brennan
ordered Inspector Hunt to the scene with a
force of men.
Half an hour later a message came from
the Northern Pacific and the Baltimore &
Ohio roads that mobs were gathering at
Forty-seventh and Fifty-ninth streets , where
these companies have wrecked train : ) . Fear
was expressed that the strikers Intended
burning these wrecked trains In order to
prevent the clearing of tracks. Inspector
Hunt , was also notified to attend to this
trouble.
Along the Burlington tracks scenes of violence
lence were enacted today for the first time.
At West Fortieth and Twenty-fourth streets
a mob gathered and upset several freight
cars. The 'rioters wcro dispersed by pollco
from the Lawndalo station.
DESTRUCTION AT THE STOCK YARDS.
Today at the stock yards brought no
receipts of' ' live stock' ' and no prospect of
shipments. The paralysis of the railways
and packing houses continued complete. A
survey of the scone at the yards this mornIng -
Ing showed that the devastation by flro along
the line of the Panhandle railroad extends
over at least three lulled. Everything
pcrtshablo was destroyed , Including cars ,
switch haunts , signal towers and exposed
freight. The fires are still burning and
now and then break out In a now center.
Policemen closely guarded the Lake Shore ,
Fort Wayne , Western Indiana and Pennsyl
vania tracks at the yards all last night ,
and today preparations were being made
to start meat trains eastward. Tracks
were this morning slowly cleared of obstruc
tions with the Intention that as soon as
this was accomplished switching would be-
sln. In muny Instances the obstructions
were so Ingeniously and firmly fixed that
It was almost Impossible to remove them.
It was stated that when the trains were
ready to move all the military and police
force available would be exercised to prevent
Interference.
There were no crowds of the Idle and
vicious men at the yards this morning * to
Interfere with the work of clearing the
tracks. A large number of strikers slept
In the vacant lots adjacent to the Link
Bolt Machinery company's plant last night ,
but they showed no disposition at an early
hour to resume their unlawful operations of
the previous day. Chief McDonald of the
stock yards pollco said : "Tho people who
were out raising Cain last night are at
homo and asleep. I have made the rounds
of all the tracks , and beyond a few groups
standing Idle around there Is nobody to be
seen. They will wako up pretty soon , but
wo are ready for them. I never saw such
scenes of disorder as were to be found on
every hand here yesterday and laat night. "
Nelson-Morris , Swift and Armour have
all sworn In several hundred special officers
to guard their property. They feur the
Incendiaries more than the train wreckers.
No attempt was made In the stock yards
to move trains , and nothing will be done. It
Is expected , until Monday. Tha packers fear
violence tonight , but no demonstrations were
made today. H Is gald the striken will not
attack private houses , but will confine their
depredations to corporation property.
LAKE SHORE HAN PASSENGERS.
The Lake Shore rend sent out thirty-six
passenger trains this morning , two of them
promptly on time. All Incoming trains ar-
rlvod at the depot on time. The Rock
Island road Is still completely tied up. The
office force within the city has been tempo
rarily laid off and no business transacted at
the general office.
No trains are running on the Baltimore &
Ohio north of South Chicago. The com
pany expects to send out this afternoon from
South Chicago n special train carrying teach
ers destined for Aabury Park. Those from
the west who expect to go over the Baltimore
& Ohio road wilt take the Elgin. Jollet &
Eastern belt line , while thoRO going from the
city will bo taken out on co.blo and elevated
trains. One train on the Chicago & Alton
road due last night reached the depot this
morning. No other trains came In and
none went out.
The Panhandle Is completely lied up. A
little business was done by the Chicago
Central , the southern branch of the North
ern Pacific , but the Burlington , Milwaukee &
St. Paul mid Northwestern roads were
operating their passenger trains as In times
of peace.
SHOTS EXCHANGED WITHOUT HITTING.
Police olficcrs encountered the rioters at
Fiftieth street and the Grand Trunk tracks
this morning. Shots \voro fired on both
sides , but no ana was lilt.
Flvo freight cars standing on the Burling
ton tracks between Wood street and Western
avenue were fired this morning by a crowd
of women and boys. In the -1,000 people the
percentage of men was small. The fire was
extinguished without Interference.

CHICAGO , July 7. The Dally News will
Issue at 7 o'clock an extra containing thu
following Important Information , and It
vouches for Its correctness In every particu
lar : Late this afternoon President Debs of the
A. It. U. Informed a Dally N'ows reporter
that he had received a incssago from 13. F.
Lawrence , vlco president of Iho First Na
tional bank , saying that Vlco President
\Vlckcs of the Pullman company was will

Mr Lawrence that he was perfectly willing
to meet Mr. Wlckes. Vlco President Wlckcs ,
when seen later nt his office , said : "This
morning Mr. Lawrence called on mo and
asked me If I uouhl bo willing to meet a
ccrr.mlttco of our ex-employes , I told him
I would gladly meet such a committee and
have always been willing to meet such a
delegation nt any time. The position of the
Pullman company , however , Is unchanged.
I do not expect that committee will com ;
to me Intending to discuss arbitration. If
they desire to discuss the situation , &a I
said , I am ready and willing to see them.
The conference will be held tomorrow at
my office , but at what hour I am unable

Later this evening Mr. n. F. Lawrence
said : "Thero has been no talk whatever of
a meeting between Debs and Wlckes , or be
tween Debs and any representative of Pull
man's company. There will be no meeting
between these people. There has been talk
of a meeting between Mr. Pullman and a
committee of his ex-employes , but whether
this will come to anything or not I can
not say. "

ident Howard and three directors of the A.
II. U. In secret session at Uhllch's today for
the purpose of deciding upon another walkout
of Northwestern employes. At present that
road Is running all Its trains on time and
many nonunion hands are at work. Many of
the old men have been replaced and the sit
uation Is a discouraging one for the men.
It Is the wish of the leaders to Initiate a
second tie-up on the Northwestern system ,
making It complete and absolute , and then
fight It to a .finish. By this scheme , the
men who. have becn deprlved of their places
m y regain'them , It' ' Islsald , and tha union
workers' who quit at- the first call will not
lose so heavily for having gene Into the
sympathetic movement.
The Stewart avenue district , between
Thirty-ninth and Fifty-ninth streets , was
distinguished by frequent scones of disorder
today and officers and soldiers swarmed
there. At Englewood a mob of several hun
dred rioters Jeered at a detachment of sol
diers and a squad of police. Inviting a col
lision , and finally flred several shots at the
blue coats. The fire was returned by two or
three officers and a charge was ordered
which temporarily dispersed the mob , though
further and serious trouble In that quarter
Is feared.

FEDERATION ANOUTSIDI3Il.
President Gompora Says Tlioy Ilavo No
Present Idm of Striking.
NEW YORK. July 7. No action has yet
been taken by any New York labor organiza
tions looking to active participation In the
great strike. The representatives of the
A. R. U. , who have been here for a week or
more , have had exceedingly -poor success
In their efforts to gain supporters. President
Gompers of the American Federation of
Labor was requested to go to Chicago to
confer with Mr. Debs regarding the situa
tion , but declined to do so on account of
pressing engagements In New York. Mr.
Gompers said today that the A. R. U. had as
yet made no request for help and that the
federation had not held a mealing and had
made no arrangements for holding any meetIng -
Ing to consider the situation.
"Tho federation Is not very strong in
steam railroad circles , " continued Mr. Gem
pers , "nor Is there any general organization
In the cast that Is very strong. "
Mr. Gompers said lie knew nothing of the
proposed visit of Mr. Debs , to New York.
Through the efforts of the emissaries of the
A. II. U. a meeting of delegates from the
various local unions of the city Is to bo held
tonight to see It it may be possible to ar
range for a mass meeting of the strikers to
be held In this city early next week.

James Johnson , chief clerk of tbh railway

In view of the fact that there Is some com
plaint fhat the Southern Pacific was not
making the proper effort to transport the

"Sir : I have the honor to request that
you will Immediately notify the proper ofll-
clals of the Southern Pacific company that
they are required to transport 'the malls of
the United States upon all local trains run

that such trains are expected to be run
In a reasonable manner and as often as the
ordinary business of commerce requires.
Your attention Is further called to section
3,9154 , revised statutes , making all railroads
postroads of the United Stales. In this con
nection I beg leave to say that It may not
bo practicable for said company to operate
trains carrying Pullman cars at the present
time , but this does not excuse that company
from carrying the mnlls of the United
States on all other trains.

CHEYENNE , July 7. ( Special Telegram
to The Bee. ) The action of the federated
board of Union Pacific employes In refusing
to order a general strike on the system
meets the hearty approval of a largo ma
jority of the members of the organizations
represented. It Is a great disappointment ,
however , to the members of the A. R. U. ,
who believed that the trainmen would Join
with them In the strike and considered it
a death blow to the BtrIKo In the stale.
Union Pacific officials and citizens generally
are much pleased with the conservative ac
tion taken , and It Is earnestly hoped that It
will have a beneflclent Influence In causing
all employes to return to work.

IpmoiMtratloUrat'ltoek Spring * tliat Cainn
When tho'.tW'feectlons of Irain No. 7 on
the Union Pacific passed through Rock
Springs Frldny hlght n crowd of 1,500 people ,
made tip of miners , strike sympathizers and
the unemployed of almost every nationality ,
gathered about the depot and began n cru
sade on Engineer Smith of the first section.
While no attempt nt violence was mnde th ?
mob shoved vHlble olgns of restlessness nnd
used language tlmt was hardly fit for a par
lor. Smith being given to understand that
If he over came through Rork Springs
again It would bo regarded by the
inon as n challenge to fight. The pas
sengers were greatly frightened and the first
oecllOn delayed but a few minutes at the
Springs.
By the tlmo the second section arrived nt
the depot the croud began to show additional
signs of hostility and Engineer Hit-
tcl was shamefully abused by the mob. who
needed but a loader to commit some overt
net. During the bowling and hooting and
the excitement some ono of the mob dropped
a nut In the guide of the engine and on the
first stroke the cylinder head was forced
out , which necessitated some delay In un
coupling the fide.
It was this threatening aspect at Rnck
Springs which caused Assistant Secretary
Orr to wait on the military authorities nt
the Paxton nt midnight , nnd later on Gen
eral Brooke ? t hl residence , not for the
purpose of asking for troops as nlluged , butte
to apprise General flrockc of Ibc situation
that he might give Instructions to Captain
Qulnlon in command of Iho company of
federal troops nt Rock Springs , which has
been stationed there ntncc the rials of 18SI.
Beyond the firemen having gene out nt
Pocatello there ft little change In the situa
tion on the Union Pacific since Friday.
General Manager Dickinson stato.l that not
a wheel was being turned west of Cheyenne ,
and having cleaned up the passengers as far
as Evnnston It had been decided not to at-
leinpf lo moVe any inure passenger trains
west of the Wyoming capital. Trains are
running through to. Denver and Cheyenne
on the "Overland , " .but the travel Is exceed
ingly light.
At Northwestern headquarters It was an
nounced that the company ban resumed
taking perishable freight for all points , with
the oxcoptlon r Jie Union Stock yards ,
Chicago. Alljlrnli.s on thl ? rend were re
ported on time , . , No. 5 arriving this morn
ing on the dot , , Which is also true of the
Milwaukee and , Burlington. Owing to the
threatening condttloji of affair * on the Union
Pacific , overland trnlns 1 and 2 have been
abandoned for , thCj reason' that there is
little business.
The complete ie-up on the Union Pacific
Is playing hob wiyi theatrical companies ,
quite a half dozen Lelng blockaded along the
line of the "Ovcrjand" at Denver , Ogden ,
Pocatello , Laramle-iand several other points ,
while there arp/o number of companies In
California making , every effort to get
through to the .AtUntIc senboar.l.
Everytliins was gjulet about the Webster

Omaha , Sloux-CUr fl : Pacific , and Elkborn
trains loading1 dmPurflvlnir almost on time.
The Omaha brought In 100 cars of cattle for
South Omaha yesterday from points
along the line between Omaha , and Sioux
City.
City.The
The general manager's office of the Union
Pacific presented a btt > y , apps3ranco last
night , the leading officials being In con
sultation with officials on other portions of
the system as to the most expeditious way
In which to accomplish the mobilization of
Untied States troops. In the group about
tha general cfflco were Superintendent of
Telegraph Korty , Superintendent of Car
Service Buckingham , General Attorney W.
U. Kelly , Asu'itant Secretary Orr and sev
eral stenographers.
It wao decided , after having recslved word
from General Brooke , to accomplish the
movement of troops from Fort D. A. Rus
sell to the point , In Wyoming designated.
As fast as possible , equipment will be pro
vided for other troops to be moved to scenes
of disturbances.
While everything was reported quiet along
the we > tern division of the Un'on Pacific
the greatest fears are entertained that riot
ing and rapine will cccur today , and It Is
In prepirntlon for thes.0 prospective hap
penings that troops last night wore on the
move toward terminal points on Ihe By tern.
But the Union Pacific Is not alone Involved
of the trnnsmlssourl roads In a tie-up. From
what Is believed thoroughly reliable source : !
It la learned that the firemen on the west
ern division ot the Missouri Pacific , the dl-
vls'on between Omaha and Kansas City ,
will go oat this morning.
For several days Superintendent Rnthlmn
has been afraid of this movement , and has
so expres.ed himself to snveral railroad
men. The engineers , on the contrary , say
they will remain loyal to the company , but
will not work with green hands , which Is
another way of saying that "scabs" cannot
shovel coal for them.
Last nlglit the local officers of the A. R.
U. were In receipt of another telegram
from Eugene Debs ctutjng that It was abso
lutely necessary that the Iwo local unions ,
Nos. 12 and 195 , stand" by the main body of
the A. R. U. on strike , , ns A crisis had been
reached which needed the help of every man
to successfully overcome.

The case of Conductor Ilcartt , who refused

ence Injunction of Judge Ross , Is still pend
ing. Judge Ross stntnl this morning that
thd question was such a weighty one and
he was so busy jvlth other matters that he
would defer making his declsolon until later
on. Much Interest has been manifested over
the pending decision , us It Is a new question ,
and whatever decision Judge Ross makes
will be a precedent. All morning attorneys
for the men arrested for obstructing tbs
passage of the malls and violating tha pro
visions of the Interstate commerce act were

but witnesses were produced and testified
that Sweet had said this In their prcsenci
and hearing. Another grand Juror was dls
covered to have been a train spotter fo
the railroad. This Invalidates the Indict
ments. The matter was argued from Iho

of state mllltla Imvo made no effort to overcome
como Iho strikers at San Jose. At Sacra
mrnto there has been no further trouble
neither the United States marshal nor the
stnlo mllltla having made any efforts slnco
the riots of Wednesday to assist the company
In moving trains. The Southern Pacific man
agora have apparently thrown up the sponge
until a settlement of the trouble shall be nr
rived nt In the east. The strikers at Sacra
incnto are as determined as over. Many ol
thorn ro heavily armed with Winchesters
and openly threaten to resist any efforts to
move trains. Thu strikers have establlshcc
a soup kitchen near the depot. They ore
also soliciting the people of Sacramento for
funds for the support of tha more need )

generously donated. An afternoon paper

DENVER , July 7. The order of Unite

arrest without warrants strikers , especially
leaders , for merely counseling men not to
work , on railroads In the hands of receivers
has created great excitement among the
labor organizations. The strikers declare
that no deputies will take them without

Hcberllng , who is directing Iho strike here
E.nld : "I have advised all the men to in
no way offer violence to officers , but wo
will fight and resist any arrests that are
made without the process of the courts. "
Besides endorsing the A. R. U. strike , the
state labor assembly denounced Miiisha
Israel for the arrest of citizens without
warrants "for no graver offense than talkIng -
Ing , advising or consulting as citizens about
the common welfare , " and unanimously re
solved : "That If the laws establishing the

DENVER. July 7. The strike In Colorado
Is practically broken. The action of the
Federated board of Union Pacific employes
and that of the Order of Railway conduc
tors , together with the Santa Fa conductors
and the Denver & Gulf engineers having
been s\\orn In as deputy United States mar
shals at ( heir own request , practically set
tles the matter. The same Is true of all the
territory Between here and Salt Lake. To-
'day General McCook notified the authorities
at Washington that all lines In his terri
tory were open for the railway companies
to run trains. Immediately after
wards Judge Hallet of the United
States district court Issued ail
Injunction against. E. V. Debs , the A. R. U.
ot nl , restraining them from Interfering with
the passage of United States mails or the
provisions of the Interstate commerce act.
Two hundred more deputy United States
marshals were , however , then sworn In and
arrangements made to send them to the
troubled points the first thing tomorrow
morning. A train will bo kept In readiness
to move troops to points where they
may be necessary. Moro trains have moved
In Colorado today than any day slnco the
utrlke. although not a train except ono on
the. Midland has moved at Grand Junction.
At Las Vegas the Santa Fe engineers arid

SIOUX CITY , July 7. ( Special Telegram
to The Bee. ) The strike has not been de
clared off yet , 'but It might as well be. Many
of the strikers are returning to work today
and all railroads were running trains rcgu
larly , including both freight and passenger
trains. Fully 2,000 men have been Idle this
week , but today 1,200 employes of packing
houses and wholesale firms that were laid
oft have gene back to work. There are
probably not to exceed 300 railroad men out
on the stilke now. Men who stayed by the
railroad companies during the strike are
being Riven the preference now. There are
still prospects of trouble should Iho mllltla
be withdrawn , nnd It Is not probable they
will he before Monday.
There has been no conflict today and no
attempts to prevent trains from running.
Twenty-seven members of company M of
Cherokee nro in the military hospital be-
inuso of tin poisoning from eating canned
tomatoes. Two militiamen : ire laid up from
Injuries Inflicted by strikers throwing stones.
Seven additional arrests of strikers who
helped blockade mall trains were made by
the United States authorities today , making
eleven In all , while len warrants still re
main unserved. The loss to business as a
result of the strike falls heaviest on the
packers and stock yards Interests , and on the
wholesalers abd railroads It Is hard to esti
mate , but probably amounts to $500,000.

feeling prevailed tlmt a strike might be
ordered at any moment. At last night's
meeting held In the Interests of the A. R.
U. Organizer Nnylor slated that the strlko
would surely reach here.
Seven meetings of railroaders have been
called for tomorrow and upon the result of
their deliberations depends the movement of
passenger nnd freight trains In this city.
The xituatlon Is regarded as serious , as
every endeavor Is being made by populists
and ex-labor leaders to Induce the men lo
quit work , although many are not Inclined
to do so.
R. II. Fryc , editor of the Industrial , stales
that ho haa had Information from authentic
sources that the strike would reach here
tomorrow nnd would not bo confined to rail
roaders.
District Maslcr Workman Vincent of the

the Chicago situation has been discussed by
the general executive board , but refused lo
say anything further.
ERIE SWITCHMEN STILL ON STRIKE.
CLEVELAND , July 7. Although It was

Erie switchmen , some COO In number , would
return to work this morning , not a man ap
peared , and the freight dullness of the road
Is tied tip more completely than yesterday ,
The passenger trains are running about on
time. The Lake Shore succeeded In get

for New York. Yurdmnster Mitchell and an
assistant attempted to move some cars
loaded with stock In the western yards this
morning , but a crowd of Urlkers drove them
away.

CLOSING THI : 8sui/ni : .
Hullrond Tlo.Up HIM -Shut lff the Supply
of Or. ' .
One of the first serious results of the rail
road tie-up , as far as It affects the city of
Omaha , will be the closing down of the
Omaha & Grant Smelting works. Those
works will be obliged to shut down for want
of ore to work upon. There is a sufficient
quantity to run a day or so , but after the
supply on hand Is exhausted It will be nec
essary to draw the fires.
Manager Nash said yesterday that the
company was very reluctant to close down ,
although business hud been extremely dull
for some tlmo. The railroad strike has shut
of the supplies of ore and the works will be
closed Indefinitely within a day or so. The
exact hour for closing down has not been
decided upon , but the works will hardly run
more than two days longer.
"When the works are once closed , " said Mr.
Nash , "they will not bo reopened for some
time. The company Is carrying about 500
men on Its pay roll , but all of them have
not been employed on full time. During the
dullness of the past few weeks an effort has
been made to divide the work among all the
men , so that all can work a part of each
week. About 200 are kept at work all the
tlmo and these ot course would be com
pelled to seek other work or remain Idle. A
letter received from the president of the
smelting works at Denver stated that the
works there would not be closed until next
Tuesday morning. "

Pollco Chief SOUTOJ Sees n Solution of the
Strlko Problem.
As president of the National Chiefs of
Police association of the United Stales , W.
S. Seavey of the Omaha force has taken a
hand In pulling down the strlko In Chicago.
Yesterday ho telegraphed In his official
capacity as president to Superintendent
Brennan of the Chicago force stating that
In his opinion pollco could handle the mob
much more effectively than the mllltla or
the regulars. With this Idea In view he
offered to furnish 1,000 uniformed officers
from Ihe different cities In the association ,
providing their expenses were paid.
In discussing the matter , Chief Seavey said
that there were seventy-eight metropolitan
cltloi In the association. Including all of
the largo elites of Ihe United States , with
the exception of New York and Buffalo.
His Idea was to take extra details from
each of these elites and land them In Chicago
cage , nil at about the same tlmo. Being
frequently thrown In contact with rioters
and mobs , he was of the opinion that police
officers were the proper parties lo solve
the problem.
Later In the day Superintendent Brennan
replied to Chief Seavey , thanking him for
the offer of 1,000 men , s-iylng that they
were not needed at present.
