Progress of the Strike. Chicago, June 30.—The American Gailway union’s boycott on Pullman cars in behalf of the striking shopmen of that company at Pullman, 111., and St Louis, Mo., has not fulfilled the expectations of President Debs who ordered it Instead of extensions of the strikes involving new interests, as was prophesied by the leaders of the union yesterday, the tie-ups are being slowly but surely broken in Chicago, Kansas City and California and along the Northern Pacific. In deed, railroad managers predict that the boycott movemout will disappear even more quickly than it appeared. In Kansas City to-day Santa Fe passenger trains with Pullman cars attached were sent out on schedule time, but freight business was totally tied up. The strikers remained away from the yards and there was no trouble of any character. United States officers were present in force, but were not needed. No other roads are affected in any- way. In Chicago suburban servic3 has been resumed on several lines, and the Illinois Central has succeeded in getting its perishable freight de livered. The threatened trouble at the stock j-ards did not materialize and in other respects the situation was brighter. In California one train was sent East last night with Pullmans and others will follow. The firmness of President Huntington of the Southern Pacific and the fact that the United States authorities have been ordered to see that mails are carried ori regu lar trains, are having their effect. The Santa Fe system in Colorado and the far West is still tied up, and at Eaton, N. M., there has been some trouble, but the courts will enforce their orders and service will soon be resumed. Several causes are responsible for the lightening of the strike tension. The American Railway union is not so strong as had been supposed and is not receiving the support of other orders. The railroads especially at tacked are in control of United States courts and Judge Caldwell and other jurists have issued such positive orders that service, both freight and passenger, must be resumed before long with new men if not with the old on the Santa Fe and Northern Pa cific. These orders are posted in all yards and are being discussed coolly by the men, who are inclined to be lieve thatthe3' should obe3r the courts. A SWEEPING ORDER. Judge Phillips Admonishes the Santa Fe Men Not to Strike. Kansas City, Mo., June 30.—Judge Phillips, in the United Stases circuit court this morning, issued an order restraining the Santa Fe employes from interfering with the running of Pullman cars. The order was made on the application of the receivers by Gardiner Lathrop and Samuel W. Moore of Kansas Cit3T. The applica tion states that the strikers have threatened to stop the company’s trains, and have done so, in their efforts to prevent the running of sleeping cars. It asks that they be enjoined from congregating on the company’s property, and from crippl ing t,he service in any way. It also asks that they be restrained from quitting the company^ employ by preconcerted action. The order differs from those issued by other courts in that it admonishes the employes not to quit the service of the company. A direct order not to quit a company's service is some thing that no court has ever attempt ed to enforce and the order by Jndge Philips is as sweeping as any that has been made. In his order Judge Philips says: It is ordered by the court, that the United States marshal for the western district of Missouri, he and he is hereby directed to pro tect the trains and property of the said re ceivers from the interference of all pe»ons either in the employ or not In the employ of the said receivers in this district, and that the employes of the said receivers be and the same are hereby directed and ordered while remamin.’ in such employment, to do and per form and obey the orders and directions of the S3id receivers, and that they be and are hereby enjoined from refusing such obedience while continuing in such employment, and that the said employes and all other persons whether in the employ of the said receivers or not, be and are hereby enjoined from con MUST DO THEIR WORK.

Washingtok, June 30.—Senator Sher man yesterday introduced a resolu tion, which went over under the rules, instructing the committee on inter state commerce commission to inquire into the expediency of regulating by law the employment and use of sleep ing and parlor cars not owned by railroad companies engaged in inter sfate commerce, the cost of operating them, the charges made for their use and what ought to be reasonable 1 charges for the seats, berths and sec- ] tions in such cars. THE PULLMAN STATEMENT. A Plain History ot tho S riles and the Condltlous Leading to It. Chicago, June 30.—The Pullman company has issued a statement to the public. It gives, among other facts, a history of the trouble at Pullman which has led up to the troublo all over the West Inasmuch as it is not so stated iu the Pullman statement, be it known that tho immediate cause of the strike was a reduction of 33 per cent in wages at Pullman for cer tain “piece” work. In part tho Pull man statement follows: “In the first week of May last.there were employed in the car manufactur ing department at Pullman, 111., about 3,100 persons. On May 7, a com mittee of the workmen had an inter view by arrangement with Mr. Wicks, vice president, at which the principal subject of discussion related to wages, but minor grievances as to shop administration were also pre sented, and it was agreed that anoth er meeting should be held on the 9th of May, at which all the grievances should be presented in writing. The second meeting was held. As to the complaints on all matters except wages it was arranged that a formal and thorough investigation should be made by Mr. VVickes, to be begun tho next day,and full redress was assured to the committee as to all complaints proved to be well founded. “The absolute necessity of the last reduction in wages, under the exist ing condition of the business of car manufacturing, had been explained to the committee and they were insist ing upon a restoration o£ the wage scale of the first haif of 1893.” During1 this second meeting George M. Pullman made an address to his men in which in substance he said at the beginning of the business de pression last year the company em ployed 5,816 men at Pullman who were paid §305,000 a month. Unfilled orders for cars from various railway companies were canceled. Work de creased, men were laid off and Novem ber 1, 1893, only about 2,000 men were employed at Pullman. Mr. Pullman said he realized that work must be provided, not only to provide the means of living to his men but to permit the 700 or 800 em ployes who had purchased homes to complete their payments. He then canvassed the situation, he said, and found that competition for what work there was would be sharpened by the hard times, but that he had deter mined to keep all of his men at work if possible, though he must do the work for less money. Therefore he was compelled to h.sk Che men to do their work for less money, and the re sult was the reduction of “piece” work prices. He said there was no objection from the men and he sup posed they would accept the reduc tion sensibly and as one means of self-preservation. While those conditions existed he personally took up the work of bid ding for car building contracts, and by low bids was able to get work so as to increase the number of his men from 2,000 to 4,200, the number em ployed in April, 1894. in all depart ments at Pullman. This increase in work, Mr. Pullman said, was not ac complished by reducing pay, and therefore reducing prices. bn£ by fi re auction 6i tlie & profits as well. The interest on the use of cap ital and machinery was eliminated from the estimate of investment. The company even took work at a loss, and here are Mr. Pullman's own words on that point: The order for fifty-five Long Isalnd cars which was the first large order of passenger cars let since the great depression, was sought for by practically all the leading car builders in the country. My anxiety to secure that or der. so as to put as many men to work as pos sible, was such that I put in a bid for more than $300 less than the actual cost to the com pany. The ;<00 stock car* built for the North western road and the 250 refrigerator cars now under construction for the same com pany will result in a los* of at least $12 per car. and the twenty-five just built for the Lake Street Elevated road show a loss of $79 per car. I mention these particulars so that you mav understand what the company has done for the mutual in terest and to secure for the people at Pullman and ■vicinity the benefit of the disbursement of the large sums of money involved in these and similar contracts, which can be kept only by the procurement of new order* for cars. for. as you know, about three-fourths of the men must depend upon contract work for employ ment I can only assure you that if this company now restores the wages of the first half of 189 5, as you have asked, it would be a most unfortunate thing for the men. because there is less than sixty days of contract work in sig-ht in the shops under all orders, and thera is abso lutely no possibility, in the present condition of affairs throughout the country, of setting any more orders for work at prices measured by the wages of May. 1891 Under such a scale the works would necessarily ciose down ana the great majority of the employes be put in Idleness, a contin.ency I am using my best efforts to avoid. THE TAYLORS IN ST. JOSEPH. Taken From Macon to Prevent a Pos sible Lynching: Raid. St. Joseph. Mo., June 30.—Willia m and George Taylor, the alleged mur derers of the Meeks family, arrived in this city this morning in charge of Sheriff Barton of Linn county. The prisoners were brought here direct from Macon, on the Santa Pe road, and their arrival was wholly unexpected. When they left the cars at the union depot, very few people in the crowd knew who they were as they appeared to be ordinary travelers, no attempt at confining the fx-eedom of their movements being made. They were taken direct to the county jail and locked up. William Taylor expressed great satisfaction at their safe arrival here as he said he certainly expected to face a mob at Macon. “We are all right now,” he said. “I do not think any mob will attempt to get at us here and when our ttial comes off we will prove in very short order that we had no hand in the killing.” Fire at Yates Center. Yates Center, Kan., June 30. Eight of the best business buildings in this city were destroyed by fire yesterday morning, causing a loss of nearly 330,000. K. G. Hard Nominated for Congress.
