Room "a Grand Pacific Hotel, Chicago.
At the time, however, Mr. Hoge issued
this circular the company was fully supplied
with engineers and had large number of
applications from reliable men, with good
references, for any vacancies which might
occur A number of attempts We're made TO
carry out the suggestions of the circular,
but in all cases the applicants were refused
employment The company, knowing the
character of the leaders of the strike with
whom they had to deal had been on its
guard against this very sort Of thing from
the first day of the strike. Mr.. Stone ex-
planned that the sal soda was to be put into
the tanks of the engines, so that the water on
being pumped into the boiler would foam"
SO as to prevent the engine from getting dry
steam, and make it impossible to proceed,
and to cause the burning of the crown sheets
of the fire boxes. The emery was to be
thrown on to the bearing surface of different
parts of the machinery, causing the bearings
Ia run hot or even ruin them.
