" CALLI3D ON MAYOR HOPKINS. The committee of seven appointed by the labor leaders at Uhllch's hall called upon Mayor Hopkins promptly at 10 o'clock today. They asked him to arrange for a citizens' committee , drawn from Intlucntial business men , which should undertake to force Pull man to submit to arbitration. Mayor Hop kins referred them to the committee ap pointed for this purpose by the city coun cil a week ago , and they agreed to meet that committee at 1 o'clock. They told the mayor they were under orders to report early Wednesday morning. WENT TO CALL ON WICKES. The committee of representatives ot the labor unions met the committee of four from the city council at 1 o'clock and after a full discussion as to the gravity of the case the city council committee was In formed by the labor committee that unless the Pullman company agreed to arbitrate tomorrow night all organized labor In Cook county would quit work on Tues day night. The chairman of the city council committee suggested that a committee of flvo , prominent business men bo Incited to visit the Pullman company , not as arbitrators , but to determine If the Pullman company has anything to arbitrate.

The railroad situa tion In Colorado Is Improving. 1'rcsldent Jeffrey will try to open the Denver & Hlo Clrando railroad to the west today , nnd with the aid of the employes who have remained loyal to the company , protected by United States marshals , there Is a good prospect that ho will succeed. At 7 a. m. today a special train pulled out out for the south on which was a committee of twenty-six employes , representing the engineers , con ductors , firemen , brakemen , switchmen nnd telegraphers In this district , who have re fused to strike. They go to plead with the strikers at I'ueblo. Sallda , Grand Junction and other po'nta to return to work. It Is understood they will be taken back without prejudice If they return at once , but this will be their last chance. Following the special train , the regular train was sent out for the west at 8:30. : On board were llfty deputy marshals for duty at Sallda under Judge Hallett'a Injunction. A force of deputies Is already stationed at Grand Junction nnd troops have been sent thither from Salt Like. The strike at Grand Junction Is reported to be weakening , and not much dlfllculty Is anticipated In opening up the line to Salt Like. No at tempt will bo made to move freight trains today. The Union Pacific will operate trains as soon as the troops concentrated at Chey enne can bo distributed along the road at polnli where their services are needed. On the other roads trains are running In and out of Denver regularly. The Union Pa cific. Denver & Gulf began today receiving perishable freight. Of 250 men In the yards In this city who struck , 160 are members of the A. U. U. , and they will not be taken back. PUEBLO. July D. All the railroads are running passenger trains In and out of Pueblo , and are handling some freight. The A. Ft. U. strikers remain firm and are In constant se-slon. There Is talk of calling out all federated labor. LA JUNTA , July 9. Master Mechanic Conroe of the Santa Fe road says the strike Is practically over. The shops started up to day with n full force , twenty skilled men having arrived from Chicago. Hoarding cars have been brought from Topeka to shel ter and feed some of the new men. Some of the strikers have applied for reinstatement , but none will Lc taken back. All trains , botli passenger and freight , the Santa Fe officials say , are running on time. MASSING THOOr.S AT OAKLAND. KfTort Will Ho limit ! to Stnrt .Southern Fa- rlflc Trains. SAN FRANCISCO , July 9. The twelfth day of the great strike on the Southern Pa cific system closed with not a wheel turning in northern California. At Sacramento , Oak land , San Jose and this point tlio situation is unchanged. The Soutliern Pacific man agers are utterly helpless and appear to make no effort to resume traffic. Tonight there Is an added excitement , however , caused by the news that United States ma rines from Mare Island and regular troops have been ordered to Oakland to begin the fight that the Southern Pacific managers have so long been waiting for the govern ment to make. Leaders of the strikers In Oakland say there will bo no resistance to the troops , but they openly declare that the strikers have resolved to conduct a guer rilla warfare. Every one knows what this means , and many citizens arc fearful of the events of tomorrow. Governor Markham - ham has been warned of the approaching danger and is hurrying' from Los Angeles to the state capital. The fact that the author ities have decided to begin operations against the strikers at Oakland and not at Sacra mento , where the men have already been angered and provoked to the point of arming themselves with rifles. Is significant. In southern California the railroads seem to have all but broken the blockade. BOAT SUKVIGK ON Till : COAST. Matin to IJo Sent to the Coast Towns by Steamers. WASHINGTON , July 9. The absence to day of the riotous scenes that have marked the past few days Is a source of special sat isfaction to the postal ofllc'als. ' Postmaster General Hlssell raid tonight ho was greatly gratified at the quietness Into which things settled during the day and the generally marked Improvement In the mall service. Arrangements to relieve the mall service In Cal fornla are being made by the depart ment. The Pacific Mall steamship company will probably carry malls from San Fran cisco along the coast In both directions , the boats to stop at many of the points on the coast to deliver nnd collect the malls. Negotiations for this purpose are almost completed nnd n telegram Is expected at the doparlment tomorrw from Division Superin tendent Flint ut San Francisco announcing the plan to be put In Immediate opera tion. The plan , It effected , is to bo In force until the strike is Declared off and a better condition of affairs exists In the state. About n dozen special service routes have been ordered to connect tled-up roads with unin terrupted roads Si available points. .Most of these are In California , Oregon and Montana. Olio Iteiult of tlm Strllio. PENDKR , Neb. , July 9. ( Special to The lice. ) The merchants are hauling their goods from Sioux City by teams as a result of the strike. They claim that the differ ence In the cost of hauling by team and by rail la so small as to make the former method preferable , as It affords employment for men and teams and keeps the money at home , and It h now understood Hint Ponder's iierchants111 all go Into n scht.no of haul ing their goods by team , regardless of the strike. This means n boycott on the rail road and the employment of every available : eam In Pendcr and vicinity. The cost of ( milling goods from Sioux City by rail Is trom 19 to 21 cents per 100 pounds , while it ias been nucces-fully demonstrated here the past week that goods can bo hauled by team it 30 cents per 100 pounds nnd give a man nnd team J3 per day , mid the business men say they \\ould much rather pay the few cents extra for teams. It Is believed that ; ho scheme will not only prove entirely sat- fjctory , but will bo u godsend to the Idle In this vicinity , _ MlHsmirl IWlllc Sitltclimrn Strlko. KANSAS CITY , July 9. The night switching force , twenty men In nil , on the Missouri Pacific , went out tonight , and It s said- the day force will strike In the morn- ug. This Involves nil roads at this point except the Union Paclllc. Notwithstanding ho strike , the Missouri Pacific succeeded In getting out two freights during the night. The men are undemonstrative and no trouble rom them Is feared. The situation on other oads Is unchanged from yesterday , and rains are generally being moved , Engineers at n meeting tonight In Argentine unani mously agreed to stand by their chief and not go out. Ju-liriMkn .Mllltlu In Iti NinilASKA CITY , July 9. ( Special Tele gram to The Ilee.J-CanUIn William Mapes , company C , Second regiment , today received orders from Adjutant General Gage to hold Ills company for service at a moment's no tice.

Trnlnn Cnrrylng Undo Snm'ft Soldier n * l'nnt n * 1'osMlilo. CHICAGO , July 9. The Impression wa general about military headquarters today that the proclamation ot the president , to say nothing- the firing ot the troops Sat urday and Sunday , has had a telling cf feet on the riotous clement , as well as on the sensible people , who have taken liocc and stayed nway from localities where trouble Is likely to occur. No serious re ports of mobs gathering were received a General Miles' ofllcc , and this was taken as an Indication that the situation was gcnor ally quieter. Adjutant General Martin received a tele gram today from Colonel Dartlott of the Ninth United States Infantry stating that they had arrived at Toledo , and that barring accidents they would reach Chicago not later than 3 o'clock thia afternoon. The regiment Is on a special train ot the Krlo road , and an effort Is being made to shorten the running tlmo as much as possible. The Sixth cavalry troops , under commam of Colonel Gordon and stationed at For Nlobrara , Nob. , who left Valentine , Nob. , at C o'clock last night with six officers nnd 187 men , Is a detachment entirely of cavalry nnd the men composing It have seen some of the hardest and most trying service ol the army for years. They expect to ar- rlvo In Chicago on too Uurllngtnn at 9 o'clock tonight. Three troops of the Third cavalry am ! three batteries of artillery comprise the re inforcements from Fort Itlloy , Kan. , that left last night , and they are expected to ar rive early this evening over the Santa Fe route In command of Major Randall. Colonel Crofton of Fort Sheridan said to day that since President Cleveland's warn ing to all law abiding citizens to stay al home , the troops will bo more willing to fire , and that when they do so it will bo to kill and to spare none. The mayor has called on the governor for another regiment of state troops. MAY STUIKi ; AT NKW YOIUC. One of Dclm' Kuvoys buys Sucli a Thing ID I'osslblo. NEW YORK , July 9. John Ryan , who comes here as the representative of Presi dent Debs , was at the Continental today. "Tho strike , " said Mr. Ryan , "will not stop here. My errand Is to organize the la borers of the cast. I am confident ot suc ceeding. My work up to the present time lias berne fruit ten times more than I ex pected It would. I was cautious at first about approaching the leaders upon the sub ject of striking In sympathy , but my first attempt has convinced me there was no ground for holding back. I was somewhat surprised to ascertain that the feeling here to strike was pretty warm. I go to Uoston on the next train. I will not say that labor In this city will strike out of sympathy for the men In Chicago , but will say they are liable to , which amounts to about the same tiling. In the event of the strike reaching Buffalo , which. In my mind , Is not a sure thing , U will not stop there. If the trouble continues live days longer all eastern roads will be tied up. All wires are ready , and when Debs sees fit ho will pull them. The lookout is for squally times until Pullman gives In. " WKAKKNING AT I.OS ANGUI.Kd. Suntn Fe I'asftcngcr Trains Arriving and I > p.irtlng a * Usual. LOS ANGELES , Cal. , July 9 , The strik ers are apparently losing ground rapidly at this point. The Santa Fo road dispatched another overland train this morning and nearly all the Santa Fo local trains arrived and departed on schedule time. The South ern Pacific company Is also running many of Its local passenger trains , and today made up a freight train for the east and one for Santa Uarbara. Both trains will be dis patched tonight or tomorrow morning. A large number of deputy marshals have been armed with rifles nnd ordered to report to morrow morning to guard the passing of a passenger train north to San Francisco. The crowds at the railroad depots are gradually growing smaller. IOWA MILITIA Strlko 1'ructlcally ( Her at Moux City and Conditions Normul. SIOUX CITY , July 9. ( Special Telegram to The Uee. ) The railroad strike today Is practically over. All roads are running trains and receiving perishable freight. The stock yards were reopened this morning and the packing houses resumed operations. The entire militia force was withdrawn from the city this morning nnd so far there have been no s'gns ' of a resumption of violence. The railroad companies all posted notices today requiring their employes out on the strike to return to work by 11 o'clock tomor row or be discharged. Many are applying for their old places. Preference Is being given the men who stood by the companies during tlio strike. Will Meut Openly or In Secret. CHICAGO , July 9. The president's procla mation against the assembling of crowds and advising citizens to absent themselves from mobs or other gatherings , caused much renewed excitement today In Pullman. For ward persons were not slow to claim that the federal authorities had entered Into com bination with the Pullman Interests to break up the open nlr meetings that have been a dally feature In the town. "If wo can't meet freely In the open air to discuss our wrongs , " said one of them , "there Is but one alternative. The tendency Is to meet In secret , This Is what forces secret societies , and If carried out will make It necessary for us to work under cover of secrecy as different sections of one whole. This Is what creates the secrecy of nihilism and It Is a conspiracy to break our spirit by scattering us. " TrniiiH ICunnliig In New Mexico. SANTA FE , N. M. , July 9. Robert Dland and twelve others , arrested for Inter- feilng with Santa Fe trains at Raton and brought here last Friday , were arraigned on charges , ot contempt and obstructing the malls. Judge Zeeds held them In $1,000 ball each on each charge. Their trials will not como off for several days on account of lack of witnesses. Passenger and freight trains are moving both east and west In New Mexico today. All Is quiet and the situation Improved. Troops are still at Raton and Las Vegas , and detachments are guarding trains going through the territory. ( ! ompmVI11 liniimln In Now York. NEW YORK , July 9. Copies of the reso lutions passed In the meeting In Chicago which declared that his presence In Chicago was Imperative , were shown Mr. Gompers today , and after ho had looked at tl > e ques tion in every light , Mr. Gompers said to an Associated press reporter : "I have nothing ing- whatever to say on the labor question or upon anything that the federation may or may not do , but I'm not going to Chicago until I am sent for. My duty Is now here , and here I shall remain until I am called away. " Saloon * mill ( iuu Store * Closed. IllRMINGHAM , Ala. , July 9. The situa tion tonight Is moro reasoning. Freight trains on two of the four roads are running. Fifteen mllltla companies and two batteries are on duty , with Major General Whiting ot Mobile In command , who has Issued a public order that ho will carry out to the latter the Instructions given by Governor Jones In his proclamation of yesterday.

Notwithstanding the peaceful Sunday at Chicago , the War de partment officials this morning were full of grave apprehensions as to the future. A tele gram received after midnight from General Miles makes the situation At Hammond much more serious than appears from , the news dispatches. The general says there were two distinct engagements between the United States troops and the mob ; that Eevera rioters were killed , many wounded nnd a number arrested. Details are lacking In th dispatches as to the exact number of casual tics. This action of the troops at Hammoni marks another phase of the exercise of mill tary power , namely , the dispersals of mob that obstruct the free passage of InUratat nnd mall trains. War department officials were not much concerned at the department over the whole sale Issue ot warrants for the arrest of com pany D , Fifteenth Infantry , who first fired upon the mob with fatal results. It th military were to be subjected to such bar assmcnt In the discharge of their dutlci there \\ould bo an end to all effective service. 13ut fortunately the question of legal Juris diction Involved has been settled already by numberless decisions , Including the declara tlon of the United States supreme court. I can be stated that under these decisions , I an attempt Is made to serve these warrants , the army officer In dommand of the troop : will refuse service , stating that he Is act Ing under authority of the United State : government. This will compel tlio abandon ment of the proceedings before the state courts , and If It Is desired to proceed furthei m this matter , the r mplalnants must go before fore the United States courts and ask foi the Issue of processes. In ordinary times this is usually < ? ran2d a d the commanding oincer has but to appear and show his au thority for the order resulting In the killing. It Is believed to be Improbable that a United s tirs court will take action calculated to embarrass the military arm of the govern ment at this time. While sympathy Is expressed with the un fortunate "Innocent spectators" who suffered from the encounter between the troops and the rloteru , the authorities point to the fact that such people have been repcaedly warned to keep away from these turbulent gatherIngs - Ings , and that the consequence of a failure on their part to obey must be on their own heads. The president , in his proclamation Issued last night , has' ' , made clear the Im possibility of distinguishing between the guilty and the lnmJ4entl'ln such gatherings ORDERED' OUTTHE , NAVY. In line with the Instructions Issued Satur day to General Ruger , commanding the De partment of California , , to take charge of the Central Pacific and open communication with the east , now Interrupted , the department says another Imporlant'step was taken this morning by ordering the forces of the Mare Island navy yard , , , to po-operato with the troops at the Presldjp , San Francisco , In main taining the supremacy of the law. This ac tion was taken because General Ruger's garrison risen at the Presidio had been so weakened by the detachment of a'considerable force to operate at Los Angeles that he could not prudently operate jingle handed against the mob. . , Th'e ' first move will bo made at Oakland , where the railroads. < trom the east and south touch the bay. The situation there Is re ported to bo very bad , and to add to the difficulty of General Ruger's task , It is be lieved 'that the great majority of the popula tlon is In sympathy with the strikers , al though every day's stoppage of traffic Is causing the loss of thousands of dollars to the fruit growers of the state. The addition of the naval contingent to General Ruger's command ( for they will act when on shore as troops subject to his orders ) , It Is be lieved -will enable him to break the deadlock , and as General Brooke has the matter well In hand at Omaha on the eastern end of the Union Pacific railroad , it Is hoped that through traltlc will be resumed soon. The available naval strength at San Fran cisco and vicinity Is estimated at 650 men. Including blue Jackets and marines. In case only marines are needed they can be sent to Oakland by rail and operated on shore the same as regular troops. It Is not likely that the blue jackets will land unless It be comes absolutely necessary to assist the troops. The war ships would bo near at hand For any service that might be required of them. RAILROADS REFUSE TO ARBITRATE. Reports to the Postoulce department say that the railroads have positively declined to accede to the demands of the strikers for arbitration. Their action Is based on the theory that there are no grievances to arbitrate. This announcement was made about 1 o'clock today In the course of an Interview over a direct wire from the Post- ofllce department nt Chicago. Postmaster General Hlssell and Superintendent White were at this end of the wire , which has Just been placed In the department building on account of the strike , and Division Su perintendent Troy was tit the Chicago end. The conference lasted half an hour , during which the regular runnl ? of almost all trains entering and leaving Chicago was an nounced.

TAKES IMIUCUIIUNUU OVKll IIUSINKSS. Congremimcii Stop Legislation to Hear the News from the .Strike. WASHINGTON , July 9. Senators and members of the house have evinced the greatest possible Interest In the news of the strike. The Associated press bulletins , giv ing In a concise form the latest events from the scene of action , have been eagerly read by all.
