NEw YORK. July 2s.-There 10 practically
no change in the situation In the telegraph
strike here, and the business OF the West.
ern Union 10 almost .: badly crippled - Il
was in the beginning. The only difference
noticeable Ii that the American Rapid 10
doing such big business that 1t will be
compelled to double It's facilities, and this
is why the Western Union Is going along
smoothly. The Rapid is fast gaining
friends, and through its action In eompro-
missing with the Brotherhood, has doubled
its business. As to the d. & o. compro-
mise, that Is simply sroundless. There
was or Is no, any negotiations pending b.
tween the Brotherhood Of Telcsraphers
and the II. & o. The strikers arc ~ firm
as ever. Several new members were initi.
ated into the order tonight.
