KANSAS CITY, Feb. 2S.-Last evening
the Rock Island road allowed some
loaded freight cars from the Burlington
road to be switched into the Rock leland
yard and attached to the latter's freight
train, with the apparent Intention Of
helping the Burlington 10 its fight with
the Brotherhood OF Engineers. When
the Rock Island engineers discovered
what had been done, they became furi-
GUS and promptly boycotted their
own company, by pulling every
engine into the round house and
abandoning them, leaving a score
Of freight trains on the track. The fire.
men Joined In the movement and the
result is a total tie up of the Rock
Island freight traffic at this point for the
time being. The Burlington officials
are working like trojsns to keep their
passenger trains moving, but they do not
claim to adhere to schedule time. They
are selling tickets with an agreement
to refund the money or provide the pur-
chaser with tickets over other lines.
Freight traffic is In worse condition
than the passenger and no perIshable
freight is received The sentiment here
is that the strike will eventually
spread to other roads. and the action OF
the Rock Island men is cited in support
of this prediction.
