that it was ail but impossiDia tor any

Many of the railroads had small forces of

Railroad Men Make Statements.
W. C. Brown, vice president ot the Lake

Associated Press ot the situation on his
road:
About AO tier cent of our man went out.
The remainder, with additional help, which
we have hired, are handling our business
as well aa could be expeoted. Our business
is not tied up and will not be.
J. T. Harahan. second vice president of
the Illinois Central, said that about halt ot
hla company's 4(0 men had atruck, but
he had men close at hand to take their
nlacea."
Mr. Harahan aaid he thought the strike
could have been avoided It the men had
hMn wllllns to consult with tha roads

through their own committees Instead ot
tnrougn tneir union,
"We have no trouble In adjusting differ

In reply to a question, Mr. Harahan said
that the railroads were a untl In refusing
to deal with the strikers through their
union, but all of them were ready at any
time to discuss grievances If presented by
their employes
He did not think there would be much

President Samuel Gompera of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor apoke to aa many
people . aa could conveniently crowd Into
Washington hall last night on thd subject
of organised labor. At Interval throughout
his speech Mr. Oompers was loudly cheered
and when he bad finished round after found
of applause Went up.
W. D. Mahon of Detroit, International
president of the Amalgamated Association
of Street Railway Employes of America, and
Fourth Vies President Wilson of the in
ternational Association of Machinists also
apoke.
President Oompers dealt with orgSnlied
labor upon a broad, national basts, tracing
its remarkable development aad Influence
from the old trades union as the ceaaeleas
ttruaale of the men and woman who had
produced the parent body and given It thd
great sphere of usefulness In which he
said It moved
Refers to t'nlan Fncllle.
Only briefly did Mr. Gompera refer to the
strike of the Union Paciflo employes In
progress In Omaha and other cltleS over
the system: He said he had been asked
to enter Into soma discussion of this sub-
lect. and said
"These men art engaged In a righteous
atruggle. They were doing a good and
honeat day's work when the management of
the road sought to drive them bsyond
their limit and nowar of endurance: sought
to crush their very vitality by eyttem of
piecework under which they could not help
but atraln their bodies In order to earn a
fair Urine.
"Against this thesa men protest and I
glory In their grit and manhood. Nothing
can atand between you. men, and victory
but yourselves. Stand together. I be a of

success is the proper assertion of manhood
and determination.
Extreme Physical Exertion
Mr. Gompera said the American workman
produced double what ' the workman of
European countries did and In many cases
he was forced to the very extreme of
physical exertion Which ultimately' resulted
In nervous collapse. This, In his mind.
was the state ot affaire against which the
Union Pacific strikers were combating.
President Oompers described thd move
ment of orgalnzed labor and Its effect In
these terms

caller on the president since his arrival
here was Rev. John Hay Cuahlng, a Cath

there today to tile a complaint against
Ambssssdor Meyer at Rome. .
Mr. Cusblng claims that he and twenty-
eight other priests were driven out of the
Denver diocese by Blabop Mats tor no
other reason than their failure to vou
for him for the bishopric. He said he
waa the fourth to go. Protests were sent
to Rome and later the twenty-nine priests,
as well aa Bishop Matz, went there to state
their case before the Vatican.

admitted that it waa la open retaliation
for the lynching of Italtana in New Or
leans.

Indignities and Ambassador Meyer and Con

him at an American citizen. Mr. Cushing
claims further that three New York men
furnished Bishop Matt with $30,000 with
Which to fight the priests in their claim
to restoration to ecclesiastical functions.
WheU Mr; Cushing called the president
was not at "home, but he left certain
ptpere and will return here on Thursday.
