TEXAS AND PACIFIC ROAD,
while in state qao, are becoming more
Intensified, owing to the suspense. A
number OF the employees who had
come up from Marshall, returned
again last night, One reporter went
to the depot, to learn what he could,
Nothing definite had been heard,
but there were rumors that went
TO throw satisfactory light on
the subject. Colonel Noble had
arrived and he had talked to the
boys, One employee told our repor'

a dispatch going over the wires to
Philadelphia, that Colonel Noble
thought things would resume In Il few

The report was prevalent here last
night that the International mel
would strike to-day.
THE TRAIN FROM THE EAST
was awaited with more anxiety last
night, than the night before. II was
thirty minutes behind. On It's arrival,
we interviewed several parties, among
them, Conductor Thorn, who stated
that everything was quiet In Marshall.
The men were nAious,bnt determined.
Colonel Noble had arrived ut 1880, and
asked the boys TO wait forty eight
hours, till he could hear from Pbila
delphia. They had consented, and VIII
allow the passenger trains to run as
they have been running, until the
time expires, unless the order ieduc.
ing the pay is rescinded, and then they
will run AZ formerly but II the forty
eight hours goes by, aud nothing Is
done, only the postal car can go. The
men held meeting, in conjunction
with the citizens, and appointed fifteen
police from their number, the citizens
doing likewise. No drinking Ia allowed
by the men.
This " the situation. IL IL expected
some action will be taken to-day, and
we hope that the aclion will be such
rs to resume operations. The matter
Is getting little tedious here, and our
merchants are getting uneasy about
their freight. 1.-THE men and the com.
pany would come together in the same
spirit the Central folks did the matter
would be settled ut once. A strong
guard OF police are posted about the
depots and buildings, and will keep
out all intfuders. There were u mum.

wished to know II they could return
Agent Whiteman would not guarantee
II. The days proceedings will be anx.
iously waited for, aud we feel conf
dent some arrangement will be made.
