be settled were rudely dissipated, when the

eineu on the entire "Q' system went out on
q strike in support OF the engineers. Their
last strike was inagurated at Chicago
among tho switchmen and btakemen EN-.
ployed BY the Chicago. Burlington & Quin.
cy railway. Whispers OF such u move
have been heard over since the BEGINNING OF
the strike Of the Burlington engineers and
tiremcn. Considerable active SYM
pathy has been shown BY these two
class es Of employees with the engineers and
fire,nen, and in addition plea OF self pro.
lection had frequently been entered. The
plea was that the switchmen and brake
men we're in constant danger to lilo and
limb from the alleged incompetency OF the
engineers and firemen who have taken the
places OF the Burlington members OF the
brotherhood. The switchmen intimate
that they had assurances that none of the
many Knights OF Labor among the new
engineers and tiremen on the Burlington
wonld work with non.union switchmen.
