, Lust night the Union Pacific engineers'
nnd flromen's brotherhood combined In a
union meeting to hear the report of Chalr-
* man Vrooman of the grievance commlttco
Who had been sent to Chicago to confer with
Chiefs Arthur nnd Sargent. They met at
i. the hall on the corner of Four
teenth and Douglas streets , and .wero
Jn secret session until 11 o'clock. At that
, hour n HKR reporter visited them , nnd but--
' tonholqd n prominent , member. Ho said :
"We've done nothing that wo wish made
- public. When wo nro roudy to act in a way
. "that will affect the puollc the Hpn will bo the

wo appreciate It. " .
"Wtien will you hold a meeting ngainl"
queried the reporter.
, f > "At 10 o'clock Sunday morning , " \vas the
ji reply , accompanied with Instructions from
.rtlio speaker to a number of departing
brothers to bo on hand , sure.
The BEE'S informant positively refused to
disclose the object of Sunday's meeting , and
. . .i-albcr than pivo crcdenco to the wild rumors
/ ' . afloat it will bo better to nwnlt tim outcome.
. " Previous to the meeting a BBS reporter
'circulated ' among the Union Paclllo engineers.
' .fand these seen denied havlng.rocoivcct official
I -notice of Judge Dundy's injunction. A
n Icnicht. of the cab who is an old timer on the
. Union Pacific , said to the reporter :
"What n nonsensical thing that Judge
Dundy's injunction is , nnd do you know that
, Xsvon some of our men have been simpletons
'enough to bo scared at It. One engineer ,
whoso name I will not give , Jumped from his
r .engine to-day when informed that ofllcers
is .wcro after him to servo notlco of the iu-
\ Junction and ho has not been seen since. "
"Has a notice been served on you ! "
"Not yet. "
"What will you do If ono 1st"
j. "Treat it ns I would a piece of paper I
wished to discard. No power on earth can
compel mo to remain on my cngiuo if I do not
wish to , nnd that's all there is to it : "
< "Havo you the law for thlsl"
1 "All the law I doom necessary is the law of
t a self-protecting citizen , loyal to my country
' nnd the brotherhood of my chosen profession
nnd love for wlfo and little ones. "
At this Juncture another engineer stepped
1 Up ; and in reaponsffto the question if nnottco
" had been served on him , chuckled to himself
tl nnd said : * - , '
, "For nineteen long years I have worked on
the right nido of the cab , and for a number of
dlftcrout corporations , have been nil over
v the status and into Canada and was never
-discharged only once in all my experience.
That was when I sided in with a
, brotherhood strike in Manitoba , and
for the last six years I have been running
on .tho Union Pacific. No notice has been
served on mo not to leave my engine , and if
> ono was it would huvo no effect.
"Tlicro may bo a law to compel mo to remain -
main , but If there Is they will have to light
pretty hai d before they get mo behind the
bars. The Bun is the only paper that is giv
ing us a Rquaro deal , and it has been fair in
the treatment of the question from the start.
This 'gr.id 'd plan1 of the Burlington is a
sham und. delusion , and a farce of the worst
Idnd. Ono of these 'graded engineers' ran
into mo at n crossing ouo time , and a law suit
followed. The Union Pacific boat thorn nil
hollow before the Judge , who wus greatly
nmused at the Burlington's ' explanation ol
'their BO called 'grndod system , ' Then , as to
' "a matter of pay , the boys-nro right again.
Tor the same runs on the Union.
. Pacific engineers nro being bolter paid , nnd
- do not have to work as many hours at that.
I'm glad the court has Uiken hold of this
"tnattor , and when wo appear before Judge
ftlundy on Monday with our lawyer there'll
bo some fun , nnd don't you forgot it. "
' Train 3 , over the Burlington brings in the
ftmnll from the east and at 7 o'clock last night
was reported six hours late. It was also
known that other passenger trains on the road
„ wore nway behind thno , but the officials Were
' adverse to Acknowledging it niid refused to
answer questions.
Jmlfo Dumly'fl Injunction.
" Yesterday.morning Judge IJundy granted a
temporary Injunction against the oillccrs and
employes of the Union Pacific railroad in no-
'cordanco with the application made for the
"saiao on Friday by the Chicngo , Burlington
& Qulnry railroad. Included in the
. .injunction are the , names of hundreds
of engineers and flrcmpn , and in the nfter-
. noon notice was served on them indlvidu-
jnlly. The Judgb orders the Union Pacific
nnd Its employes to in no way hamper with
' the tratllo of the Burlington , and gives no-
' tlco to the engineers tuicl firemen not to or-
gnnizo , confederate or strike with u view to
toiupollng | the Burlington to dismiss the
men substituted f or the brotherhood strikers.
The editor of tltoliur mooting Elinor Frunlc

"Tho strike has sickened mid the boycott

Morton thin morning.
"Why do you say sdl"
"Tho other roads are taking our freight.
The LuUo Shore is taking all the freight we

"Well , what can I toll you ! " said Master

x > for information on the situation. " 1 don't
mow anything that I hnvo not told you over
nnd over again. The situation remain * un

mined to fight this thing out. There is
nothing moro for us to do now , nnd Mr.
Arthur and myself remain quietly in our
rooms doing nothing , but simply watching
developments , and wo will remain doing so
until this thing is finally settled. "
"What do think of '
you Judge Dundy's do-
olslon I"
" \Voll , I have nothing to say about it. It
Iocs not affect mo in any way , but it appears
x > mu that If I am an employe on any rail
road In the country and want to resign my
losltion at any time I hko to do so , there is
no law in the laud to prevent mo. Arthur
lias not. ordered any strike anywhere. I
aavo not done so. Neither of us has any
such power. Wo have no power to order n
single man nnywhoro to quit work and
never have had. I hope this strike
will not spread nny farther than it has now ,
but if it does it will bo simply by each man
acting for himself on his own responsibility ,
und without any arrangement or conspiracy
with anybody else. And if nil the men on
nny road should do that at the same time. I
know of no > law in the land to prevent them.
This strike is not over yet and is not going 10
bo for a long ilmo to pome. The brotherhood
lias got plenty of money nnd will pay thogo
men as long ns'thoy need it. They are not
dependent on charity , nor asking public
charity or assistance. Tlioro is not a loco
motive engineer in the country that does nnt
sympathize with thorn , nnd want to see them
win , nnd they will bo supported as long as Is
necessary.Vo arp bound to win this fight ,
nnd are going to do so if it takes all sum
mer. "
"There nnpears to bo n strong public senti
ment exisiting that the brotherhood is in the
wrong In the matter. How" do you account
for itl"
"If the brotherhood is in the wrong , how is
it that the Burlington company -refuses so
positively to have the question submitted for
the consideration and decision of men capable
of understanding it and rendering nn eqult-
able decision upon the points nt issue. Wo
have said from the very first that wo were
willing to arbitrate the whole business. Wo
have stated that wo arc willing to submit tea
a board of railroad presidents , and if their
decision is against us wo will abide with it
and go to work again at once , and the whole
business will bo finally Bottled. If wo ore in
the wrong and the Burlington want to set
us right , they can very easily do so. "
Why nro they so opposed to . the order of
arbitration ! "
"Because they say there Js nothing to
arbitrate ; Uiat you have loft their employ
ment voluntarily and they have given your
places to other men , who are doing their
work on their own terms. "
"Well , that Is all right. Then if wo nro
out of. their employ and they are able to do
their business without us , why nil this out
cry about us being in the wrong and about
this strike ! I urn sure wo are not doing any
thing to intcrfero with them doing their busi
ness. Wo are not interfering with their men
or bothering ourselves about them m any
way. If they are doing their business lot
them go ahead and do it and stop talking so
much about the strike and what the brother
hood is doing. "
A dispatch received from DCS Moines this
afternoon says : "Tho rail road commissioners
have closed their investigation of the charges
made by citizens of Creston and the
Chicago , Burlington & Quincy railroad com
pany was at present employing incompetent
engineers on its passenger aua freight trains
to the danger of the public. The coihmis-
sioncis report to-doy to the governor that
they flijtl the charges sustained by tlio ovi-
tUJnco nnd that they hnvo ordered the rail
road company to stop the employment of any
but competent and experienced engineers to
run trains. "
A Chicago , Burlington & Quincy cngino
thut went to the yards of the Milwaukee &
St. Paul recently was roughly handled. As
soon ns the "Q" engine arrived in the St.
Paul yards the engines commenced tooting
the whistles , all kinds of missiles were
thrown , the oil clips were taken off , nnd
emery and R.ind poured into the oil boxes
and on the driving rods. Missels wcro
showered upon the eiiglno und the engineer
and the Pinkcrton men , who wore also
aboard , crouched in the c.ib. After an un
successful attempt to get Iho "Q" cars the
oiigiuo was abandoned.
General Mnnnjjer IMIIJer'H Views.
CHICAGO , March 10. Uoswell Miller , gen
eral manager of the Milwaukco & St. Paul
road , when asked to-day to alva his views ns
to the position of outside roads towards the
Burlington , satu : "It seems to mo to bo
ridiculous for a court to order n road to
handle Burlington freight when It is not in
condition to obey the order. How ran the St.
Paul haul Burlington cars when , the cngin-
eeis refuse to work ! Discharge them and
get men that will ! That's nil very well , but
snppobo , wo did discharge our engineers ,
would wo be In n better position or the pub
lic be in n bettor position if wo stopped our
road altogether i I could stop the St. Paul
road to-day , but I don't propose to do it , because -
cause it would only result in injury to the
public. The St. Paul Is not responsible for
the present situation of aiTnlrs. "
Both sides in the Burlington strike were
apparently resting on their arms to-day.
Hiillroud ofllciuls think the strike is weaken
ing , while the men say the brotherhood Is
undaunted and will fight all summer if neces
sary , There were no now-features developed
to-day. Burlington nniuhils say the Union
Pacific , Atchlson , Missouri Pacific , nnd Fort
Scott & Gulf continue to tnko freight from
thorn , Thu road brought ilfty-uix cars of
grain Into this city to-day.
Totally Incompetent ,
Das MOIX'BS , la. , Maich 10. [ Special Tola-
gram to the BUB. ] The railroad commis
sioners to-day reported to the governor the
result ot their investigation of the charge
that the Burlington road was employing In-
roinpstcnt engineers in place of the strikers.
After giving the cnrresjK ndcnce that led to
the Inquiry , tnoy review the testimony they
took , citing a number of cases of men now
serving as engineers who say that they do
not conxldcr themselves ns flist-class passen
ger engineers , They , then sum up their con
clusions ns follows : Mr. Brown , superin
tendent of the lowii lines , admits that under
the conditions of all his cnghieuicn leaving on
twelve hours' nptlec , ho was compelled to run
passenger trains with new auu inexperienced
mun. It may bo regarded as proven beyond
question and ndinittud thut the incn ubovo
designated woio incxpoiicnccd under Uio
general rules laid down by the rail
road companies for the running
of trains and tried by their own
standard , the commissioners do not hesitate
to say that they uro incompetent , The lost
question for determination ii , does their run
ning passenger trains endanger the tufcty of
thu trovsllui ; public ! These men have bqon
employed from ntno months to thrro or moro
years as firemen. They all tnow the usmvl

verbally on February 27 , rcqiuircd J'flrst
class conductor to ride On Iho cnfclnp , , to bo
equally responsible with the engineer for the
safety of the train as far as the train rules
and tolegrnph orders are concerned. " He
testifies further , sumo page , that mnchlnesU
from different shops wore Delected a first
class machinist was 'put on board of
every passenger train , men who If

or nny trouble occurring to the ctiRlno'to

the assistance in their power. The extra
conductor , or pilot , on the engine being nil
experienced man , wo think should Insure the
safety of the trains so far as 'running it in
accordance with train rules nnd telegraph or
ders can insure it , nnd In this particular the
train would bo as safe ns if solely in charge
of nn experienced engineer. The machinist
who accompanied ovcry train Avould , wo

In these particulars the now men miming
Lhoso trams cannot bo equal to these who
had boon previously BoWclcd from the oldest
nnd most competent engineers to run passen
ger trains. The commissioners bollovo that
the examinations ttint hnvo boon hcrctoforo
mndo nnd tests that hnvo been applied to
determine whether .engineers nro competent
to run locomotives , are dictated by prudence ,
and to neglect them is unwise. They would
advise the Chicago , Burlington & Quincy
company to allow no engineer to run n pas
senger train who is not fully up to
tholr established standard of skill
nnd ability. The law govoining
the carrier of passengers says
ho "must use extraordinary euro and caution ,
the highest skill , the greatest foresight and
the best npplmnces. " The "highest dogrco
of.cnro , skill and dilligonco of which human
effort is capable. " The "dilllgrnco must bo
extraordinary nnd liability follows slight nog-
llgonco. " It not being in issue , the commis
sioners hnvo not thought it within the scope
of this Investigation to discuss the merits of
the differences that led to. the engineers and
firemen leaving the service of the Chicago ,
Burlington & Quincy railway company. '

plaints have of latobeen made to mo concern
ing the interruption of freight nnd passenger
transportation caused by the strike of the

as the danger arising from the employment
of Incompetent substitutes for such employes.
The inconvenience and disappointment which
the present state of ufTair.s causes to the

merce in divers ways sustains , are such that
further delay In the adjustment of the differ
ences existing between the management of
the Chicago , Burlington & Quincy road and

Justice to the stato. In the territory con
trolled by your road trafllo is deranged nnd
travel is inconvenienced to such an extent ns
to demand a speedy solving of the difllculty.
I therefore appeal to you in behalf of
the people of the state of Iowa to make
every possible effort to come to an under
standing with the strikers. It appears to mo
that oven self-interest should dictate such a
course to you , and especially as your com
pany can be held responsible for damages
caused by failure to furnish reasonable facil

that has been refused by the Union Pacific as
B. & M. freight wcro moved out yesterday
over the road. Some , of the Lincoln lumber
men , who have yards on the Burlington
tracks , hat receive their freight over other
rosi'is , have hod consignments nrrlvo here.
The engineers refuse to switch the cars onto
the Burlington track , nnd consequently the
lumbermen are unloading and hauling
to the yards by wagon. It is under
stood that the roads make a rebate
to cover this extra cost , and when they make
it they speak of the Burlington in no com
plimentary teims for its stubbornrss. In
this regard a well-known traveling passenger
agent , who is in this city , shed some lighten
the feelings that other roads entertain to
ward the Burlington. The gentleman in dis
cussing the qucstipn said that the manage
ment of other roads Were disgusted with the
Burlington management and its action with
