President John McNeil of the Interna tional Brotherhood ot Boiler Makera and Iron Shipbuilder mad hi report to tbe fourth district lodge ot boiler makers yester day morning at the semi-annual meeting In Labor Temple. Tbe report involved a de tailed statement of the conditions of th present strike on the Union Pacific, In which members of this lodge srs engaged, and was ot a very encouraging nature. President McNeil reviewed th progress of th strike, coming to tbe conclusion that better hope and chance f victory con fronted tbe striker now than at th be ginning ot th stubborn conflict. H said the men were all united and determined, had excellent financial resources and were cordially supported by th grand lodge. These elements he regarded as assurances of success. Tbe district meeting adjourned shortly after noon and the visiting members. In cluding President McNeil, returned to their homes. President McNeil goes back to Ksosas City, not to return to Omaha until aome exigency arises to de mand his presence here. He says the men have everything in good shape and favor able to a auccesstul termination of the fight with tbe Union Pacific, and that he will b actively engaged In their support at all times until the strike I ended. - McNeil, like other leadera of tbe strike, does not predict an early settlement, although ha a desirous that normal conditlona may L reatored at th earliest possible date. Ma? Go Over Mart's Head. There 1 a general Impression in some quarters, bssed upon reports from the western stock ranges, which are feeling the effects of this strike materially, that a strong appeal will be made to th di rector of the Union Pacific at their meet ing next month in New York for a aettle ment of the atrlke. Men who are promi nent In the west are quoted as saying that they believe aome sort of terms to be presented to tb strikers will b decided on at this meeting. A statesman ot on of the western states, who is extensively Interested In stock raising and who baa been seriously handicapped In getting his I stock to market by this strike, is quoted as having said tbat the Inlon Pacific must be forced to settle tbe struggle with Its employes and he believes, ao the report ay, that potent Influence are at work upoa officials higher la the service of tbe company thaa President Burt. President James O Connell of lb Inter national Association of Machinists, who has been attending the Eight-Hour league's meeting In Minneapolis, was expected In Omaha last night or this morning. Ha probably will only make a brief visit. Tbe report that W. H. Esterltne, the chief guard of the Union Pacific police forces in Omaha, had been discharged and left the city aroused great Interest among the strik ers. Esterlln wsa seen on the streets a day or two ago and told certain strikers that he "had been let out by th old man." Esterline' presence in and around the shops aa chief guard has been particularly Irritat ing to th strikers, who contend that he mad many boasts of his prowess and how he would exercise It on th striker If they ever provoked him. Reports from Cheyenne place th num ber of defections at the shops there for tbe week at forty-six. No material additions, It la reported, have been made. expenditure of over $100,000,000, and he atanda at the bead of bla profession.
