All go out at ] q ,sas City.

KANSAS CITY, April 1.-The boycott on
Burlington freight went into effect in the
yards here promptly at noon. A Fort Scott
switch engine had just backed up to some
Burlington freight, but when II o'clock
struck the men left the cab and refused to
haul it. The engine was soon uncoupled
and the freight cars left standing. The
Burlington switchmen are still at work.
MUST BE TREATED THE SAME As OTHER
KANSAS CRY, April 2.-Orders were ID
sued by the Fort Scott & Gulf road this af-
ternoon that Burlington freight must be
treated the same as any other freight. This
will probably precipitate strike of switch
engineers and fremen and switchmen on
that road, in pursuance of the policy laid
out by general meeting Saturday night.
QUIT IN BODY.
KANSAS CRY, April AT o'clock this

suance of the policy determined upon at the

night. The men have no other complaint,
and will 60 to work on condition that they
are not required to handle "Q'' freight.

Must HANDLED Burlington Freight.


CHICAGO, April AT meeting between
Michigan Central men and General Mama
ger Brown at noon, the men were told that
they must handle Burlington trains sent
into the yards. They were told that they
must make up their minds to do so by 2
o'clock tomorrow morning. They went to
their engines, but 20" freight was not
touched. They will hold a meeting this
evening to officially decide on their course.
Up to 2 p. m. no Burlington freight had
been handled on the Belt line.
NEVER TO OBTAIN EMPLOYMENT ON THE ROAD
, AGAIN.
Unless the st. Paul switchmey are at their
post tomorrow morning ready for work
they can never obtain employment on the
road again. This was the ultimatum of the
officials this morning. They say that the
switchmen will have to notify them to-day
of their willingness to haul Burlington
freight or their places will be permanently
filled. Two hundred strikers met to discuss
the question. The meeting was turbulent,
and adjourned without taking decisive
action, except resolution to stand to the
position already taken in regard to 20"
cars. Fourteen switch engines were work
ing in the st. Paul yards this morning, and
Collins said that he had
enough crews to man half dozen more if
they were needed.

ton: An effort toward compromise of the
strike on the Chicago, Burlington & Ouinov
was made this evening by the BrothoOd Of
Engineers and Firemen.
A card embodying concise statement Of
the situation from the mems standpoint,

dressed to the public, and signed
by r. 1. Hoge, for the engineers,

The docoment in its concluding paragraph
invites arbitration entirely on a new basis.
The idea is instead of coming wholly from
other roads or professional be selected from
the Burlington's own employees The io6u-
mont says In this connection If the Chicago.
Burlington & Quincy is satisfied with the
present condition of affairs it has but
little care either for business or for
the public. We stand and always
will stand ready to arbitrate by fair board
of arbitrators, and we agree that they can
be chosen from railroad employees of this
road. An offer is also made to submit the
matter to three presidents or general man
ayers. Marvin Hughitt, general manager of
the Chicago u Northwestern, is named as q
man who would be an acceptable arbitrato-
to the brotherhood, the Burlington to name
the second arbitrator, who, in common
with Mr.. Hughitt, should choose the third.
