Running at Loss.
MILWAUKEE, April 4.-General Manager
Miller of the st. Paul road, said this morn
ing that all the men who quit their employ
have returned to work. "The only en-
ployes who are Out" he said, s'are those
thrown out by my order of Monday. I
shall issue an order this morning camel
ing the order of Monday. To-day's order
will 90 into effect on Monday next.''
INJUNCTION DENIED.
CHICAGO, April Ain the Rock Island
VS.. Burlington case, at the conclusion
Judge Gresham said that even if the "trust'
allegations made by the Rock Island were
true it did not release that company from
its duty as common carrier. Again he
did not think the Rock Island had refused
to do its duty. The Burlington did not
need protection from this, its strongest
competitor, and as there was no danger of
injury accruing to the 20" road, no injunc-
ti0n would be issued just now.
A CUNNING SCHEME.
1t is broadly stated that in lifting the
boycott to-day the strikers calculated that
all roads that had suspended relations with
the 20" would at once proceed to unload
on that company all the cars that had ac-
cumulated, and that the effect would be
to swamp the 20" with freight, and having
achieved this the Burlington would be re-
quired under the law to furnish proper fa-
ctlities for handling the freight and this
might grow into lever to move the men
back into their old positions with the Co."
Up tonight the judgment of the men
seems to have been good, but it will take
time to demonstrate whether or not the
Burlington is capable of hadling all the
freight.
WAGES RESTORED.
ST. PAUL, April 4.-Mr. Dixon of the
Milwaukee road to-day received notice
from the Milwaukee that all salaries
would be resroted on Monday night.
CHIEF ARTHUR's REASONING.
CLEVELAND, o., April 4.-Chief Arthur

porter announcing that the boycott in Chi
cago had been raised and that railroad
employees had returned to their work on
all roads but the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy. IL received a telegram from Mr..

neer, Stating that all was quiet in Chicago
and could safely remain at home for the

aThat is true. If the Chicago. Burling-
