The Railroad Strike at Baltimore.

Along the whole line of the Baltimore and
Ohio road there exists a state of rebellion
the consequence of a strike by the freight
conductors-of which we gave an account
few days since. At both Baltimore and
Martinsburg, personal violence has been
used by the strikers, and the men in charge
OF the trains compelled to abandon them
though great many Of the strikers profess
an snxietyto resume their posts, but are
deferred from doing SO by fear OF personal
violence:
During the whole of Tursday the strikers,
numbering about one hundred men. were
gathered in squads in the vicinity of Mount
Clare depot At three O'Clock in the after
noon there was a general concentration oil
the strikers in The vicinity Of the six engines
which had been ordered to be fred up TO
start al four o'clock. Efforts we're being
made to induce the engineers and firemen To
Join in the strike. but they, with one exceP-
ton. refused, and he finally re-considered
his determination and resumed his plst.-I
At ha!f-past three, w. P. Smith, Esq ;,
Assistant Master of Transportation, with
several officers of the road. among whom
were Captains Rawlings and Shut of the
passenger service, arrived on the ground
with the new hands with whom it was pro-
posed to man the trains, including two or
three old hands who had determined to resist
the strike. On rearhing the vicinity OF the
engines each Of these men were surrounded
BY the strikers, and every effort made to
argue them out of their determination;
though no threats o: personal violence were
made. very violent and offensive language
was applied 10 them, and hints thrown out
thar although they could pass out the city
sale, they would have to "run the gauntlet
Of the road, and would be sure to catch il al
Martinsburg.
But two trains were started out YESTERDAY
morning, and but two on Wednesday even
ing, and on both occasions violence was used
by some of the strikers in dragging from the
trains those who desired to resume thei
posts. These instances occurred about a
mile outside of the city, at point in the
road where slow tra' cling is necessary. a
half dozen jumping on and crowding the
brakesmaL off The trains, however, pro-
ceeded, and had no further trouble until they
reached Martinsburg.
