Icssncss MARKS the STRIKE,
The olive branch of peace now
waves over the entire length Of the
Texas and Pacific railroad Every
body is happy. The men, who but II
few hours ago were idle aud in n state
OF suspense, are now spnnging to their
work, with vim and II vlg0r born Of
the condition of affairs. Each and
every one OF them seem imbued with
a desire To do their level best. They
know work piled mountain high
stands before them, yet they look for
ward to it with satisfaction, and Will
buckle to it, feeling that they are UNI
der obligations to their own officers.
Like men, loyal and true, they
desire to show their appreciation
Of the good service done them
by their superintendent. The railroad
men and the company are like Il pair
of young and ardent lovers, who, hav.
ing had a little mill, have pouted and
sulked for a short time, are anX-
ious to kiss and make up, now that
reconciliation has taken place.
The strike ended yesterday morn
ing. The first indication Of II was n
telegram to Agent Whiteman order
ing him to have No. 10 freight ready
to Ieave ON l;30-as the "war
isover." A dispatch from Colonel No
BILE soon followed stating that II
satisfactory arrangement had been
reached. In less than fifteen minutes
after the receipt OF the dispatch, the
engine was fired up and running down
to the tank for water. When the
switch engine came down IL was load-
ed with the boys, and as they passed
along the track on Pacific avenue,they
felt so good that they cheered every.
body and everything. Soon after u
telegram was received from the head
man Of the strikers, telling the men
here that all was settled salislactor-
ly; but the boys had not waited for
that. Colonel Mobiles word was good
enough for them, and they had re-
ceived that some time before. The
freight train was made up aud left
here at once. For the benefit of our
citizens we give the following dis.
matches, which show that all is lovely:

General Freight Agent
A curious phase Of the strike took
place here yesterday. Many team
sters believing that the complete
blockade on freights would continue
sometime, had cnia- iDtJwn, and were
Offering 10 haul .5cight to different
places, asking high prices. There was
one squad Of these tesmsters higgling
for freight at one OF our wholesale
yrocery stores. They asked so much
that the firm hesitated, and while the
harley was going on, the news
that the strike was over was re-
ceived. The way prices tumbled among
the teamsters, was ludicrous to behold.
The merchants, however, preferred to
hold OIL aud ship by rail.
AT 1910 the accommodation train,
due here at $3.50, left Marshall for the
fret time slice the strike, arriving
here at 7:45. our reporter visited II
and conversed with the conductor aud
Jim Curry, the ei gineer. The latter
informed us that yesterday morning a
grand meeting was held at the Opera
house, at Marshall, and Colonel Noble
came forward aud addressed the men,
during which lac was loudly and vo'
ciferously applauded. In II he prom
