Freight without Protest.
KANSAS CRY. March pa surprising de-
veopement in the situation of the BURLINGTON
strike to-day was the handling of the boycotted
freight by all the roads but one-the Wabash
Western. The engineers made no objection
whatever. and this circumstance is partly due
to the fact that the grievance committees on
some of the roads agreed to make objection
to Burlington freight This amounts
to practical surrender of one
of the weapons with which the
men have been carrying on their contest.
but they stouty deny that it is an indication
of weakening and maintain that it was merely
done as a matter Of prudence. The frat freight
hauled by the Santa Fe to-day was train of
Burlington cars, and the Missouri Pacific, the
Fit. Scott 6 Gulf and the Union Pacific all an
nounced their willingness and ability TO take
care of all business offered.
