system. There is no freight being
handled by the road, and several thou
sand men are out of employment and
have been for two weeks. The general
manager of the Missouri Pacific a week
ago issued circular formally discharg-
ing from the employ of the company all
who had engaged in the strike, and
ordsrsd the yards cleared of all strikers.
The strikers have evidently become
tired of being out Of employment and
have asked for q conference of Knights
of Labor with the manager of the Mis-
souri, Pacific.
To this, after acknowledging its re-
ccipt, Mr.. HOXie replied as follows:
W me l am always ready 10 confer
with and hear the complaints of any
employees OF the companies which /
represent. / cannot see that a meeting
with the committee such as Won pr,,.
pose would adjust the trouble as | am
Informed that the reason for the exist
ing difficulties was the discharge of G..
n. Hall by the receivers of the Texas q
Pacific railway, u road not under nv
control and with the management of
which i have no voice or authority. /
would further state that the action
taken 10y our late employees has so re-
duced our traffic that we shall not soon
again require as many men i'm our shops
rs heretofore, but all good men who de-
sire employment and are acceptable Ia
our superintendent will hereafter. as
heretofore, he we'll and promptly paid
for sevices rendered, and if they have
any complaints | will take pleasure i'm
meeting them for that purpose.

The indications are that the strike
will be ended this week, but it is almost
as certain that the strikers will have tc
give up, for public sentiment is decid-
eddy against them. There appears to
be no real reason for the Missouri Paci.
tic men taking up the troubles of theil
Texas neighbOrs.
