Si5. Three of the $50 men make an extra

Quite a number Of rumors were aiioAf In
this civ last evening to the effect that the
railroad operators on the Baltimore aud
Ohio, between this city and Baltimore, and
on the Trans Ohio division, had left their
keys, that the men on the roads running
into Pittsburgh were out, and that IN taat
city the Brotherhood men were putung
heads on all the working operators they
could lsy their hands on. Enquiry at
the Baltimore and Ohio office developed
the fact that every man on the road from
this city to Baltimore was at his post and
that but one or two men had quit Work
between here and Newark. Manager
Tracy, of the Western Union, said that he
had heard OF but nine railroad operators
leaving their instruments east OF the Mis-
sissippi during the day, and the reports in
the Pittsburgh evening papers concerning
the unpleasantness between the strikers
aud workers at that point were not al all
of sanguinary nature.
