TESTING THEIR TEMPER.

The Reduction Said To BE the Result of q
-Treconcerted Arrangement.
Chicago News.
1t was currently reported yesterday that the
action of the Wabash management in precipitat-
ing strike among the employees is part of a
preconcerted arrangement entered into, after
due consultation, between it and other lines as
an experiment. The understood object is to test
the temper of railroad employees in general on
the question of reducing wages The Wabash
was selected for the test for the reason that it is
a non-dividend line, is under the pro-
lection of tho government and hence a strike
could more easily be controlled If EMPLOYEES be-
came turbulent, and for the further and more
potent reason that trouble on the Wabash would
not affect the stock market as would be the case
with any line not so hampered and controlled.
Should the object aimed at be gained with the
road taking the initiative in this move it is said
the leading lines of the country will Immediately
order like reduction in wages and fall back on
the pretext that the action Of the Wabash. with
its advantages of competition, renders necessary u
similar course. 1t is hoped that general re-
duction can thus he made without the bad re-

announcement that the Freight blockade
VIII Be Raised To-Day.

KANSAS City, March 11.-All Wabash trains
and Missouri Pacific passenger trains from this
point now running as usual. The only work
permitted in the Missouri Pacific yards is the
switching of a few freight cars that the strikers
are allowing TO be moved to accommodate ship
pers. An agent of connecting line stated to
reporter, this evening, that he was info. med to-
day by a representative of the Missouri Pacific
that the freight blockade of that road would be
removed tomorrow. This report, if authentic,
is understood to mean that the railroad officials
expect either to effect compromise tomorrow
or force an issue and undertake to operate
freight trains despite the opposition of the
strikers small reserve police force was kept
on duty to-day, but there has been no occasion
for their service. One local military company,
forty men, was also held in readiness in case of
emergency. 1t is reported that the Missouri
Pacific paycar will arrive here tomorrow,
though it is not yet due for three days.
The Missouri Pacific officials this evening mott
fed the county authorities that they intended
to pay off the striking men here tomorrow and
discharge them, and then put new men in their
places This will hold the county responsible
if any damage to property results The sheriff
will not take action, as it appears unnecessary.

Volunteer Aid for General Grant.

NEW YORK, March 1.-Dr. Fordyce Barker
and DR.. j. H. Douglass, the physicians who are
in attendance on General Grant receive letters
from people all over the country. giving suggest
ions for the cure of their distinguished patient
Many Of these letters are from physicians, and
some are long and elaborate. They are all read
attentively, but so far no reason has been found
for altering the treatment DR.. Barker is run
down by old women who call at his house to give
him advice about the case. He was asked to-day
if it would be possible to operate for the removal
of the cancer by cutting through the iawbone,
and he replied that the idea was ridiculous.
There was no better surgeon in the world than
DR.. Fl. B. Sands and if such an operation was
practical and beneficial he would undoubtedly
attend to it.

SOCIALISTS IN PITTSBURG.
A Nest of Noisy and Useless People that
Ought To Be Broken Up.

PITTsBURG March 1.-THE Chronicle Tele
graph published a lengthy article confirming its
recent story of sudden activity on the part of
Socialistic organizations in this city. Special
detectives have been giving the subject attention
for the pas. two weeks, and have discovered that
out of the 1900 members in this county not over
dozen citizens properly known workingmen
are joined to the organization, and that in almost
every case where an acknowled member is found
he belongs to ths class of foreigners who have
come or been driven to this country to make a
living off the product of honest labor and who
if he works at all, only does it when he can get
no one else to support him. At the
same time it has been found that the
organizations are strong enough to be
constant menace to property, and that
they deserve watching by the authorities. While
too cowardlv to take any overt action them
selves, they are watchful of opportunities and
would take immediate advantage of any public
turmoil to work their will when the RESPONSE
bility could be thrown upon somebody else.
In this county there are fourteen groups"
