The strike of engineers on the Enc Road to-day was
for all practical purposes fzzle. Some of the trains
were Delayed somewhat, but in day or two every
thing will be working before. The frmness of the
managers of this Road in resisting the attempt of their
employees to force upon them the resembling of rules
which they have established for the purpose of pro-
tectng the lives of the public is deserving of all
mendaton. These rules have been formed to work
well, and under them the Erie Road has been remark
ably free from accidents. II the engineers under
threats of strike are to dictate how the road shall be
operated and who shall ride free, the whole manage
ment of the rood might well be surrendered to them
The public will doubtless sustain the management in
the stand they have taken.
