AZ PALESTINE,
| PALESTINE, March H. Special. The
strike at this poin. is IN statu quo. No
new developments, except that the
strikers have offered their services to
GOV. Ireland To assist him and all au-
thOritios in keeping the peace and pro-
tecting property. This offer was in d.
rect opposition TO the advice by tele-
graph IRON the Marshall strikers TO pay
no attention To the govern IRIS proclama-
ton. The sheriff aud officers guarded
the company's property last night, and
lumber freight came in this morning
from Willis, 90 miles south on the Hous-

has succeeded in reaching this point
since the strike. Business interests are
suffering.
AT sEDALIA.
SEDALIA, March ll.-No change III
situation here. No freights have been
moved to-day. The company made an
attempt 10 get freight out, but the help
they thought they could command
would not take the chances, and refused
TO make much of an effort. People are
getting weary of the state OF affairs, and
business OF all kinds il mostly at a
s andstill. The strikers are very quiet,
orderly and peacefully disposed. No
militia has been hore, and as far as
now known, none will come.
n is FUNNY.
The situation remains materially I'M
changed. Superintendent HaZen request
ed the mayor this morning TO swear in
Pinkerton detectives, but the mayor
refused on the ground that the law re-
uuIred one years residence before men
could act as officers. Tho superintend-
ent sent for the executive committee OF
the strikers this morning and asked If
they had not violated the contract made
last night to allow freight trains 20 run.
They replied they had not, as that
promise was made with the under
standing that freight trains were to be
run "if men could be found to run
them" Three attempts were made last
night to take out trains and
several this morning, all Of
WHICH ldlltu OH SCCUutlb vi
the men employed leaving the trains.
The committee OF citizons and strikers
W no went to jefferson City has not yet
returned.
GETTING STRONGER.
There is little change in the situation
tonight. Ii anything, the strike Is
stronger than yesterday. No freight
trains were moved to-day. No violence
was used to prevent IL, but
ptn ~
on to u locomotive, a party of strikers
requested the engineer to take the en-
CINE back, to the round-house, which he
did. This was tried several times with
different men with the same re-
suit. The railroad company, through
Superintendent Hagsr, notified the
city authorities that II any damage was
done to the company'4 property, the
city would be h Id responsible. The
committee of citizens who visited the
governor to-day, report nothing
now. The governor maintains
that the law must be
obeyed. II no violence is used by the
strikers he does not intend to Interfere
with the militia. The militia is still at
Centretown awaiting orders.

ton and have committee of strikers

Business at the Gould depot here is
pulseless. Local freight is being ham

ness is dead. A number of freight con-
ductors, brakemen and freight handlers

cars stand empty on the side-tracks.
Passenger trainmen leaving tonight
state that they expect to make 1t
through to Alvarado, and then the
coaches will be uncoupled and only tho
mail and express cars allowed to 60
