Subverted Olllclal I'oivor.
"The rules and regulations wcro so arbi
trary in character , " as ono ofllcial expressed
It , "that It left the officials with no power
whatever to replace any of thoemploves who
left the servlco of the company , regardless
of the condition of the worlc. It practically
took out of the company's hands all of the
means It had to keep up the necessary force
of employes to carry the worlc on to advan
tage. In place of violating the agreement ii
has been carried out in the fact that there
are 1:10 : less men in the employ of the com
pany than on January 30 In those depart
ments. "
Upon the refusal of Mr. McConnell to sign
the agreement because it effectually took
away from the company the right to manage
their own business , and the refusal of Presi
dent Clurlc to consider the agreement for
like reasons , a second agreement was pre
sented by the committee , very similar to the
llrst , making changes , however , only In ono
section , as follows :
New Aerecmcnt 1'ropnnoil.
Art-1. Sec. 3. Should It become necessary
to reduce uxponsos , the tlmo of machinists ,
holler milkers , blacksmiths , molders and pat
tern makers Bhall not bo reduced Ui IOSH Mian
olKht hours for the regular day , with corro-
Hpomllngreduction on Saturday. Any further
i eduction In expenses that may bu found nec-
osMury shall bu muilu by reducing the forcu , in
which casn senior and protlclent m.irrled men
jllall bu Klvcn thu prufeioncti of t aploymunt.
\\lien thu tlmo Is bulow tlm slamlaid
no machinists , bollur makers , black
smiths , molders or pattnrn makers shall bo
hired until thu force Is reduced in per cent of
Its present ratio , and at no time while working
eight hours shall this ratio hu Increased , ox-
ccpt , to till vacancies where specialties have
been employed. Machinists lococnl/u only
biass llnlihers as specialists. Holler makers ,
molders and pat fern makers recognise no
Rpecla lists. Hhicksmlths rcciunnzu steam
.hammermen as specialists and do not recog-
nUu them as blacksmiths.
With this ono chan-jo iho original agree
ment stands as the lirst presented.
Speaking of the objectionable feature of
this clause , the same oftlcial said : "To
carry out the proposed agreement before any
vacancies could bo lllled It would bo neces-
pary to discharge 10 per cent of the ma
chinists , boiler makers , molders and pat
tern makers and blacksmiths , or increase
the time to nine hours per day. There is
ono alternative If wo reduce the working
hours per day , wo have to discharge It ) par
cent before cn.ploying any men to return to
nine hours The inconslstcncv of this >
clause is apparent to all fair minded people.1

All the morning walking delegates were
among the trades interested urging them to
stay uwny from work after leaving it at the
noon hour , with the result as indicated.
Meetings wcru held thia morning lu the
different shops , the moldera particularly ob
jecting to the action Ulcpii jesterdny , and
for that matter all over the yards a feeling
that somebody hud blundered was plainly
discernible. The action of the Denver shoo
luun in objecting to u walk out was taken as
the general opinion along the si stem , and
the fact that a committee was sent from
Denver to argue with the men In Omaba

S. II. II. Clark , when scon yesterday nftcr-
noonrefused to makoatty detailed statement
of the differences between the men nnd the
company , saying that his remarks might bo
misconstrued und that Irritation would
result. Ho Dollovcd that the men.
ns a whole would not act rashly , and that
the strike would tut bo general. The men ,
he said , had simply linked moro than the
company could grant , nnd ho could not , to
the extent dcslrsd , surrender his authority
over them ,
I > p nrlcil r.ntlics and I'oriten.
When the 1 o'clock whlstlo blew yester
day and the men had resumed work In the
several departments of the yards the Idle
forges In the blacksmith shop nnd thu dead
llres told of the number of men who had
gone out on astrlko. In the machlno shops
only helpers and apprentices were seen
about , the mechanics having left their tin-
llnishcd engines and their lathes for a
principle of right. Hero and there in the
boiler shops a helper was pounding away at
n rivet , but the noise nnd confusion In this
department was peaceful in contrast with
tlio pomlcnumtum that usually prevails.
In the foundry the men worn at work , not
being able * , o leuvo the sand before the work
mapped out for the day was completed.
Hero and theio little groups of men gath
ered , no doubt to discuss the situation while
waiting for the "core" men to complete iholr
labors. In the dimly lighted shop , with
llcry stars Hying from the moulten motul as
It fell Into the buckets , making the'shadows
more Intense and the darkness deeper , as
the sparks went out on touching the ground ,
the picture did not look unlike ono of Uoro's
etchings of the Inferno.
As the representative of Tun IJr.u came
upon these groups , in winding about among
the moulds and kilns , the men would sud
denly move away from the news gatherer ,
fearful that ho was some paid emissary of
the company , no doubt , sent there to ascer
tain what action would be taken at the meet
ing which was held last night.
A M'oldur's Opinion.
In talking to ono of the molder's helpers ,
he said to Tun Htr man : "Ofllclally wo
have not been taken into the confidence of
the tnoldors , probably for the reisou that
our going out witti them would not help the
situation any 1 have been among the men
today quite a good deal , and the feeling Is by
no means sure that the men will decide to
quit work. There are many molders who
believe that the action taken by the other
Iron workers was premature , and that no
good will come of it , but if they do go out
many of them will go out on a principle , not
because thc > have any serious grievances
airainst tlio company. I have a family to
support and u homo to take care of. Under
these conditions I will go very slow before I
leave my gang in the foundry. I have an
idea that the matters of difference between
the different trades on a strike and the com
pany could have been amicably settled. In
stead of submitting an entirely now agree
ment , it would have been better policy , it
seems to me , to patch up the old. "
A blacksmith who refused to go out be
cause ho lived so far out , as ho said , and had
come to the shop to work all day. was out
spoken against the action. "I don't propose
to become a tramp as long as I can work and
have work. Many of the m ° n out have no
families to care for and if they can't get
back to work here they can go on a tramp.
The action of the federation is duo to a lot
of young hot neuds who have not been with
the company overly long and who look on n
strike as one of the necessary adjuncts to
metropolitan life. I lost a linger in these
shops nnd after I got \\ell I was taken back
with only one provisothat I do not break the
rules. For the sake of the cnildren and the
wife 1 am going to continue right at
this forso as lorg as the company
its me. I suppose I will be called a scab ,
but still I am not working in a < riker's
place and that to mo is Just as jtiZiisivo as
it is to the men who are out. The company ,
[ believe , is in a position to wln and the
men who quit will likely walk the ties
shortly. "
Discussed liy n MnclitnUt.
The men have grievances , " said a ma
chinist's worker , as he loitered about the
machine shop waiting for the 5 o'clock
whistle to blow. "Tho company has not
treated the men by any means fairly. The
men have been ground down and It Is par
ticularly galling to a trained machinist to bo
making $ OS when his work is worth in other
railroad shops $75 and $30. The men have
called the attention of the master mechanic
to many things iu the agreement that have
never been enforced , and they have grown
tired of getting snubbed and have taken the
bull by the horns. The machinists' helpers
you see about the shops now will not bo hero
tomorrow. We wanted to stop away , but
the foreman of the shop said we had better
stay on. But tomorrow you will not see so
many men around as now. "
A careful and conservative estimate ma-Ie
by Tin : BKE representative , taking the time
keeper's statement for the number of men at
work in the several departments on n strike ,
shows the following Iron workers out :
Kmployed. Out ,
Machinists 180 155
Machinists'helpers 78 15
Ilucksinlths ! 31 28
Illncksmlths'helpers 52 40
Holler makers 33 33
Holler makers'helpers 78 56
Pattern makers 10 10
Total 402 341
Should the moulders decide to Join their
brethren today on the strike they will add
1" ! ) men to the total out , or 470 men who are
Idle because of an agreement which Presi
dent Clark refused to sign. They are divided
as follows : Moulders , 74 ; core makers , 13 ;
moulders' helpers , 43 ; total , 120.
Situation Elsoviliere.
The strike throughout the system Is not
by any moans as large as was anticipated. At
Cheyenne all the machinists , eleven boilermakers -
makers and three apprentices quit nt 11:30. :
All the blacksmiths to a man were at work.
Sixty-eight men in all are out in Cheyenne.
At Albina , Oregon , To Grande and Star-
buck the machinists , blacksmiths and boilermakers -
makers went out at noon. These men say
they were ordered to strike from Omaha.
All the boilermakers are out at North
Platte , nine machinists and the entire force
in the blacksmith shop being at work.
from an ortlcial at Salt Lake tlio follow
ing information is had : "Machinists and
boilermakers and half of the blacksmiths
went out at noon. Molders will remain
with us. Part of machinists returned to
work again. Car department forces all at
worn. "
All the men at Montpeller , Glens Ferry
and Lima , according to a telegram from Pocatello -
catello , Idaho , are at work. All the mo-
chanlcs , helpers and apprentices utShoshono
are out.
In Denver the men not getting advices
from Omaha as to the contemplated strike
returned to work at 1 o'clock. It Is under
stood that a large portion of the men In the
Denver yards are bitterly opposed to the
strike and have so Informed Master Me
chanic Z. T. Sprague , and that they hud na
grievance whatever
At Pocatello all the boiler makers , part ol
the machinists and three blacksmiths
struck.
Omiiht Yards fiunrdod.
At 2 o'clock guards were placed at the dif
ferent entrances to the Omaha yards , and it
tattes a permit to get access to the grounds ,
unless ono has business with some chief ol
department , when a grltn coated workman
aots us your bodyguard to the person do-
slicd. The grounds wcro patrolled last night ,
and until the novelty of tliii walk-out wears
off the guard will bo maintained.
The onlclab are reticent as to what they
will do. but it is safe to say nothing will bo
done for several days except like Wllklns
Micawber to wait for something to turn up
A meeting of thu executive committee ol
the strikers was held yostordnv afternoon
and after discussing the situation
they decided to stand to their
guns , only capitulating upon re
quest of Mr. Clark. Some onthusi
astio strikers even went so far as to demand
a change In the management of the shops
which means the resignation of Mr. McCon
ncll and Mr. Manning.
Mhnp Trouhlna Kovlevrod ,
Tills Is the second strike of any great Im
portance since the Union Paclllc system was
built into the land that lies to the westward ,
the tlrat strike having occurred iu 1S34
when every man in the shops laid down his
tools and walked out. Then it was a reduc
tion of 10 per cent in wages that caused t
complete stoppage in the work of the shops
But uftor ( icing out two days the men re
turned to the forge , the stool hammer
the paint brush , carpenters resumed theli
planes , holler maker * their vocations and
their work was resumed where It was lefl
because the order to strike was rescinded
on the ground that it was ordered without
preconcerted action on the part of all the departments
partments in the yards. There have bcei
iovoral local dlmVullles , but theio only con-
. 'crnod ' single departments , and were settled
jcforo some people knew that n shop was
ut.
ut.Tho
The strike Inaugurated yesterday affects
bout U,50U men on the system and only intor-
sts the workers of Iron or those men who are
working eight hours instead of nine , ns they
illego they were promised on January 15.
The towns to bo most affected by the strike
'n addition to Omaha , are Denver , Choy-
( tine , Salt Lake , llmvllns , Armstrong , Poc.v
olio , Kvanstou , Laramlu , Lu Grande and
Shoshono.
( ) Ilk-Ill U Confident.
From conversations with ofllclals yes
terday the consensus of opinion was that
' .ho . road has never been In a bolter condition
o undergo a strike tlmn at this time. The
-ailing stock Is In much better shape
dthough coming out of tno whiter than In
October last. Of the 100 engines on the
Nebraska division alone there is not ono that
ins not been In the shops In thu p.ist nine
months and although tlio shops have been
urntntr out two engines on nn average per
lay , having undergone light and heavy
epalrs , the ofllcials do not hesitate to say
hat they can go for the next ninety days
ivlthout the men who walked out today.
There Is a feeling that the strike will not
ixteud over the remaining duja of April , btt
f It should the company Is prepared for the
, \orst.
Iron Mnldcrs Will Stay.
Assembly No. 100 of the Iron Molders
Tnlon of North America mot last evening at
ichroeder's hall at Twenty-fourth nnd Cum-
ng streets. The meeting was allied to
'filer at 8:30 : , II. Morton presiding , and was
n session until 11-iO ! o'clock. Tlio contest
between those who favored and those who
pposed a walk-out was spirited. Kvery
delegate was given an opportunity to express -
press his views , and nearly all availed
hemsolves of the privilege. Ono
if the arguments , and probably tbr
chief ono , wasithat men with families coum
not afford to go out. Some of the delegates
said this argument was becoming somewhat
intiquuted , but they were largely from the
younger members of the fraternity. When
the meeting closed it was announced by Mr.
I. It. Young , the only person author
ized by the assembly to speak upon the pro
ceedings of the evening , that the molders had
decided to remain in the employ of the com
pany for the present , and that they would
go to work In tlio morning as usual. An
attempt was made to get some expression
"rom the members relative to the general
'eelitig of the delegates upon the result of
their deliberations , but their lips were sealed
and two minutes after the meeting ended
hey had all departed for their homes.
AFl'AIItS AT AIUIbTllOXG.
All the Union Men lu the Shops ut Tlmt
L'lnco fluvn Clone Out.
KANSAS Cur , Mo. , April 17. Just before
noon the foremen of the Union Pacific shops
nt Armstrong were ordered to notify their
: ncn not to return to work at 1 o'clock. A
committee of strikers visited Master Mo-
Iiaulc Roberts to see what ho was going toile
ilo about it , but ho cannot do anything until
lie gets his orders from Omaha. Many of the
strikers went to their homes , while some
iugered about the shops. They are nil
ncaceablo and no effort was made to inter
fere with anyone.
Few know what they are striking for
further than that they wore following in
structions from Omaha. Ono of them
stated that the agreement made for eight
working hours hud been violated , and the
men are asked to stand shoulder to shoulder
until thu justice of their claims wus recog
nised.
Division Master Mechanic Hoberts was
much worried over the walk-out today when
seen by a reporter : "I do not think the men
hero had any grievance , " said ho , "although
it is possible they may have grievances else
where. The Union Pacific company has at
the Kansas City shops about the ilnest lot
of mechanics to be found anywhere. They
are nearly nil old men , and those who went
out did so , I think , not particularly from
any choice of their own , but because they
were ordered out. "
A. member of the local grievance commit
tee stated that the Union PuuiQc hud be
tween 5.000 ulid 6,000 men in the shops at
various points on the system. About all the
machinists and boilermakers in Kansas
City , Kan. , nro union men , but among the
blacksmiths only two were members of the
union and went out , the others , being
Knights of Labor , remaining at their posts
of duty. Meetings of the strikers have been
called for tonlcrht and , it Is expected that the
sympathy of the other railway employes will
bo appealed to. The blacksmiths have not
struck. The engineers , it is claimed , have
agreed to use no engines repaired by non
union workmen.
President W. H. Brodcrlck of the feder
ated board , in a letter to the local mechanics ,
laid the blame for the strike or. the shoul
ders of Mr. McContioll , general superinten
dent of the motive power of the Union Pa
cific system. Tno letter is as follows :
OMAHA , April 14 , As you no doubt will
know before receiving this , wo have boon com
pelled to give the company our ultimatum.
This would never have been done had
McConnell shown any disposition to
treat us fairly. Mr. Clark showed a
disposition to be fair , and we
believe would have signed the agreement only
for Mr. McConnell. Now , brothers , Omaha Is
solid In all' departments , so pay no attention
to newspaper reports und stand shoulder to
shoulder until the victory Is ours and you hear
from us. McConnolI says Mortzshelmor'scircu
lar letter only applied to reducing the force
lust fall and could not be applied lust Janu
ary or since , or at any future period. Ho also
refused to make any proposition thut could bo
accepted as u.substitute or means to accom
plish the sumo end. He vlitually admits in
his argument thut It Is to the company's Inter
est to run eight hours , but will In no wise con
sider u rulso of wages. Hoping you will.stuud
ilrni , wo are yours fraternally ,
M. H. BitonF.iiicic ,
President of the Kuderuted Hoard.
1) ) . HOPKINS ,
Secretary ,
Late this afternoon the striking mechanics
held u meeting in Kansas City , Kan. , and
discussed thu situation thoroughly. They
decided to stand firm and thought by so do
ing the company would bo forced to submit
within a week. The meeting was entirely
armonious and soon adjourned.
A well known engineer , talking tonight ,
said that hu thought the engineers and llro-
men would not go out , as they had no griev
ance against the company. "It is a fight be
tween the company and the machinists , "
said ho , "and I do not think that wo will bo
called upou for assistance. "
SITUATION AT OIIKVKNNG.
Sixty Kxpurts Leave Their Work In the
Mucliina Shnpi.
CHETBNNIE , Wye. , April 17. fSpecial Tele
gram to TUB BEB. ] Actiuc upon instructions
from the head officers of the International
Association of Machinists and the Brother
hood of Boiler Makers , sixty-eight experts
employed in the Union Pacific shops ut this
place laid down their tools and quietly
walked out. Of the men who quit forty-two
were machinists , eleven boiler makers and
iifteon boiler makers helpers. It was ex
pected that the blacksmiths would Join the
machinists and the boiler makers in the
walk-out , but they did not , although it is un
derstood that oflicers of their association
issued the same order as was sent to thu
machinists and boiler makers.
There is no local union of the blacksmiths
in Cheyenne and this Is probably the reason
they did not go out. Work in the boiler shop
will be practically suspended until some set
tlement of the trouble is reached , but the
helpers and apprentices in the machine shop
will endeavor to make what repairs are
absolutely necessary to keep the engines in
running order. Officials of the company
state that the machinery of the Wyoming
and Nebraska divisions Is In such snupa that
the strike will not inconvonicncu the com.
pany unless continued for several months.
The only excitement attending the walk
out hero wan wten | tanrhlnlst TlRho at
tempted to ring a loeoirfotlvo boll as a signal
for the men to quit whrk. Superintendent
O'Hcrno ordered him off the englno and enforced -
forced his order by drawing a revolver. A
complaint was made ngalnst O Horn tliw
evening nnd ho ww ; placed under ! 00 uosds
pcndln/a hearing.
The officers of thu Mai lodge Knights of
Labor posted a notlco tilts afternoon stating
that the Knights of Labor were In no man
ner implicated In the strike. At the request

ArToctrd No Strike nt Denver.
DCSVER , Colo. , April 17. The threatened
strike of the machinists , bollormakors and
blacksmiths employed In the Union Pacific
shops hero did not occur today. The men
nro in the dark In regard to the cause of
the trouble and tonight a committee was
sentto Omaha to straighten things out. It Is
probable that no decisive move will bo
made until the committee's report Is re
ceived. Many of the men employed In the
shops here are Knljjhts of Labor , the bal
ance consisting of members of the Amalga
mated Association of Knglneorstho , boilerma
kers and the macnlnUts associations Should
the strike go Into effect there are about ISO
trades unionists who will walk out of the
Denver shops , while about 'J30 of the men
who belong to the Knights of Labor will
remain at their posts , as they have received
orders from District Assembly No. S'J , which
governs the Knights of Labor Union Pacific
employes from Chicago to Sun Francisco ,
that no cause for a strike exists.
The Union Paclllc Employes association Is
not concerned in the strike and work will
not bo stopped hero by the small number
who have quit. It is thought at Laramlo
that not 10 per cent of" the 7,000
or 8,000 shop men on the Union Pacific
will go out on orders Issued from Omaha on
Sunday.
Opdcn , U. T. , reports that the strike does
not affect that place. There are but a few
machinists employed by the Union Pacific
there.
Saturday last a man at Pocatello was dis
charged by the foreman of the shops for
posting n notice on the bulletin board calling
a meeting of the union. The feeling is re
ported warm in Pocatello and a strike is
probable.
\Vont Out lit North I'lntto.
NOHTII PIATTB , Neb. , April 17. [ Special
Telegram to THE Bia. : ] At noon the men
employed at the Union Pacific shops laid
down their tools and went out on a strike.
There are about 150 men involved , including
boiler makers union umTcjnuchidlsts union.
'Iho controversy Is as to the number of
hours per day they should bo employed. The
men claim they nave been promised nine
hours work us the work Increased , but that
instead of increasing the hours the company
had employed new men.

ATitnxs , April 17. The Island of Xante
was visited bv n most destructive earthquake -
quake this morning. The greater part of the
city of Xante was destroyed. The people nro
panic-stricken , thu authorities are helpless
and the streets arc blocked with the debris
of wrecked houses. So far twenty bodies
have been taken from the ruins. It is feared
that many more are still buried. Hundreds
of people wcro Injured.
Most of the Inhabitants have Hod to the
plains back of the city where they are wan
dering about bemoaning the loss of relatives
and property. The tents taken to.ante to
shelter the homeless by the recent earth
quakes have been again sot up ns shelter for
the women and children. The city is a scene
of utter desolation and It Is doubtful If It
ever recovers from the series of disasters
which has recently befallen It. There will
bo great destitution and outsldo help Is
urgently needed.
The church of St. Dionyslus and the gov
ernment ofllccs wcro wrecked. Advices
from the Interior show that the whole Island
was devastated and many villages destroyed ,
though the loss of Hfo was not very great.
Owing to the destruction of telegraph lines
It Is Impossible to gee full details of the
calamity. War ships will bo sent with sup
plies for the sufferers.
Since 7:130 : this morning two moro violent
shocks have shaken the whole Island of
Xante. The people are llecing , terror-
stricken , from all the towns to llnd safety in
the plains and hillsides. Thousands are
without shelter and few have sunlcient food.
The British minister resident nas tele
graphed to the British foreign oflico a re
quest for wax- ships to bo sent ut once to
Xanto with inon and building materials ,
that temporary sheds may bo erected for
.shelter ut unco on the plains und hillsides.
Tilled with Despair ,
Just as confidence had been restored and
the work of relief had been systematically
organized for ] repairing ithe damage done by
the earthquake , all hopes were rudely dispelled -
polled by n fearfully ten-Hie shock , which
Illicit all with dread and despair , and com
pleted the ruin , destroying for many
years all hope of prosperity.
The morning broke with lovely weather
and a cloudless sky. Without a warning the
island oscillated with intense violence from
east to west for nearly a minute. Clouds of
dust from thu falling walls of houses and
churches enveloped the city. The air rang
with the shrieks of people buried
beneath the ruins. The streets pre
sented a terrible spectacle. Entire blocks
of houses were lost ; the Theater club ,
forming a big building was thrown down ;
the splendid Venetian Campanile church of
St. Denis , patron saint of Xante , is a mass of
ruins ; rows of houses along Marina are
shapeless heaps. There are llssurcs in the
roads over llf ty yards In length. All church
belfries and hotels are either down or totter
ing ruins , there not being a dozen houses
standing on the whole island.
The inhabitants killed in the town number
fourteen and in the villages sixteen. The
injured number about " 00. The victims are
less numerous than might have been expected
owing to the hour the shock came.
In the villages the destruction Is Incalcu
lable , not one stone being left upon another.
In the southwestern part of the island , near
est the center of the shook , fissures two feet
wide are to bo seen. The direction of the
shock was east from the west , precisely
where the former ones originated. A dis
tinct tidal wave followed fast after the
shock. There is no previous record of a big
shock being followed by a bigger one ; con
sequently it is impossible to prognosticate as
to the chances of further visitations.
A remarkable fact In connection with the
present and former snock Is that in each in
stance precisely eight hours and thirty min
utes after the warning shock the destructive
ono came , the strength of both being half
again as great. The whole island must be
rebuilt in wood or other anti-seismic struc
tures. Poverty is so general and Iho future
so obscure that the emigration of half the
population is necessary to save the rest.
The weather Is line and seasonable.
The Greek minister is expected In the
morning , also the British man-of-war Inflex
ible and Greek Ironclads with relief for the
victims. The shocks continue to bo felt
within a radius of 100 miles.
Two Greek ironclads and the French man-
of-war Iphigenlo will sail tonight for Xante
with relief for the victims of the earth
quake. _
Piles of people have piles , but Da Witt's
Witch Hazel Salve will cure them.
