The. federal supreme court has ruled that no judge can enjoin strikers from picket duty, that la, from conversing with itrlk? break ers peaceably and with a view of netting them to leave work and Join the union forcea.

All was quite and peaceful In the vi cinity of the Union Pacific shop last night, where the strikers' pickets have been ac cuMoroed to patrol. No sentry ventured nearer than one block to hi old haunt and only here and there a policeman, slowly treading bis beat up and down the tracks Just outside the shop yards, could be seen. Back 'a block or t0, opposite tbe various entrances to the yards, little squads of strikers, endeavoring to obey at the same time the command of their lodge, which assigned them to picket duty, and the stern edict of ' the law, which forbade tbelr presence within prescribed limits, were visible. With no desire for trouble or wish to trespass upon the company's premlaes tbe pickets sullenly disputed tbe right of the I'nlon Pacific or the court to prevent them from performing picket duty and walking on public property if they saw fit. But by their lodaaa thev had bean strictly en joined to avoid any semblance of trouble. The men stationed near ' tbe Chicago afreet gate said that at least fourteen non union workmen had come out of the shops during the evening and gone Into a saloon opposite the yard and then returned to the shops.

BEGINS (Continued from First Page.) errhage of tbe brain, the Inevitable result f which' was death. The doctor stated that the fatal blow could not" hate been dealt 1th fist, nor was It probable that It wag' the result of a club, but of some scml-solld substance. In hi judgment the moat probable theory was that the fraoture bad been caused by a kick. All his scien tific Investigation went to substantiate this theory.' The doctor gave it a his opinion, however that this fatal fracture was the result of more than one blow. He opposed tha theory that It waa produced with a olub, as contact of two solid ' aubstances produced an Indeed wound and the Injury which caused Caldwell's death was not of that character. Such an Injury 'might have been caused by a fall on a aeml-solld sub stance, aald the doctor. Aside from the fatal Injury Dr. lavender stated that Caldwell bare a Incised wound en the forehead. Just above the right eye. deep tissue bruises over the-left temple, discoloration pf the right1 eye and a' alight abrasion on the chin. None of the Injuries other than tha on in the back of the head. he aald, could have produced death. Ha ba Moved that Caldwell ought to have survived and In fact did survive his Injuries about an hour. He was satlsfled that the victim died la an unconscious state. Cnrncnters Jolaera Meet.

CLARK SAYS THEY WON'T STRIKE NOW Plaa la ta Walt tntll Roods Have Had C haace ta Accede ta Do nyaad Decide' Oa by Brotherhoods. CHICAGO, Sept. 15. Lodge of railroad trainmen and conductors on lines from Du luth south to New Orleans are voting on a proposition to ask for additional com pensation for their services. ' ' E. E. Clark, grand chief of the Order of Railway Conductors, and Patrick J. Mor rlasey, grand chief of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, stated today that "owing to the vastly changed conditions, as compared with those in existence at the time the present wag scales were msde, both the conductors and trainmen believe they are entitled to an Increase of wages." The movement was begun at a meeting of the chairmen of the general adjustment committee held In Kansas City In June, the decision being reached that an Increase ef from 10 to 20 per cent should be de manded. The chairmen bf these committees met ag'ln in Cleveland, 0.,' July 14, when tha project was submitted to the grand officers of both bodies. With a tew altera tions and correction to conform to the laws of both organisations, it received their Indorsements.' Both lodges are Voting and aendlng the returns to Kansas City, where the joint committee will meet October 1. Bhould a two-thirds vote be cast in favor ot de manding an Increase Id wage on on or mora railway aystems, or railroads within the prescribed territory, th committees will prepare a uniform wage scale for all parallel lines, through lines and Independ ent systems and feeders to these. "The present talk of a widespread strike is unwarranted sensationalism," declares Orand Chief Clark of the conductors. "No strike will occur," at least, not until all other1' means have been entirely exhausted, and then- only on a two-thirds vote of tbe member of tbe organization Involved," he added. Mr. Morrliaey for the trainmen said: "It anything I done It will be along or derly lines and In accordance with th long established policies of the bodies affected." Will Da Nothing Radical. CLEVELAND. O., . Sept. ' lS.-Qrand Master P. H. Morrlssey ot the Brotherhood ot Railway Tralnn en today authorised the following statement regarding the move ment to be Inaugurated on western roads by conductors and trainmen to obtain higher wag's: The different stories that are arising cer tain I ng to a movement of conductors and trainmen In the western country for a raise of wages are In the main Inaccurate and misleading. They probably grow out of the fact that an association of the gen eral committees of the Order of Railway Conductors and the Brotherhood of Rail way Trainmen for this territory was formed at Kanaaa City In June, at which time the question of Increase for men In train and yard service waa discussed. It Is tne gem-rat Delict among the melt In these capacities that on account ot the vastly changed Condi tidna now, aa com- mrra wun inoae in existence ai me time he present wage standard were made. they are entitled to additional compensa tion and they are now considering the propriety of asking for It. But If anything la done by these, organisations In this direc tion it win De cone along orderly lines and In accordance with the long-used policies of toe bodies affected.
