HOW THEY TALK.
Engineers Say That a Strike May
Be Coming.

Dc
A GLOBE reporter found group OF
railroad men talking the matter over
one of them being leading member OF
the brotherhood. He was rot on duty
and not anxious to talk, though he was
very gentlemanlY.
"Was any action taken regarding the
strike at the meeting to-day" was
asked.
1T was discussed" was the reply.
"Was anything Accomplishment"
.A"Well, you see, don't like to say
much about it. We have not yet re-
ceived any positive orders, though we
are fully informed as to the situation.
We are watching it closely"
Then you have not yet received or
deTS to StrikeT'
No, SIR" positively.
'DO you expect tO?'
swell, yes" was the reply. II would
not be surprised to see Il general strike
on all the roads in the country, includ-
ing those of Canada, within q short
time"
"Will the brotherhood in st. Paul
strike if ordered to do SOP"
swell, sir, | will say this. We are
vi IiIC DIOtltIllOttl anu ODty
orders. The Burlington is receiving
the support, | understand, of every
other road in the country. If this be
the case what is more likely than a
strike everywhere? If one of these
roads gives it's moral support to the Bur-
lington, does it not look like waving
red flag in a BULBS
face? Do you suppose the
men will stand it? Some of them are
eager to stand by their brethren, and if
it comes to strike in st. Paul you will
find the boys all there. Lots of en-
gineerS run trains into this city who
live other in places. Naturally they will
be with us, for they are members of the
brotherhood. There are lots of the b.
l.. E. in st. Paul, and Division
$50 became SO large that it
was necessary to establish another
branch called Division No. 800.
The hall of this division is at the corner
of Seventh and Bradley. There will be
a meeting at 7:30 Monday night in this
hall to further discuss the matter.
understand that some very important
information has been received from
headquarters, though | don't know
what it is. The meeting will be strictly
private. If there is to be strike you
will hear of it soon enough" Wher-
ever the reporter went, be was met
with an avalanche of inquiries.
What's the latest?' "What do you
hear?" ''Have you the least bit of in
formation?'' etc, etc, met him on all
sides by engineers and other employees.
They were wonderfully eager to hear
all about it, and cross examined the re-
porter with the skill IF an Erwin. Each
one admitted that general strike is
likely, though they would state nothing
positively. ut all depends upon head
quarters" they said. One thing is GER
tain, the situation looks rather ticklish
in st. Paul at present. The engineers
are all intelligent men and go about the
matte very quietly.

A BRANCH LINE IN FOR 1T.
The Burlington Il Northern Engi-
neers to Quit Work To-Day.


CHICAGO, March A report gained
currency late tonight that the engineers
and firemen on the Chicago, Burlington
q Northern would be called out to-mor-
row. The Burlington IL Northern is a
new line to st. Paul, and has generally
been regarded as an offshOOt or ally of
the Chicago, Burlington Il Quincy. 1t
was said that the vice president of the
Burlington x Northern was in the city
this evening and had been formally mo-
tilted OF the proposed strike. A solid
basis for these reports was very diff
cult to obtain.
0The report was finally ascertained to
be true, and at midnight Vice President
q. b. Harris, of the Burlington ~
Northern, was closeted with President
Perkins. of the Burlington IL Quincy.
MIR. Harris had been served with the
notice tonight. 1t was the result of u
meeting of the engineers and fire.
men held this afternoon at La
Crosse. The notice was substan-
TALLY that if the Burlington &c
Northern did not cease interchanging
traffic with the Burlington e. Quincy
before p. Ill. Monday, the engineers
would strike in body. Vice President
Harris refused to be intervied regarding
the situation, but sent out word to an
Associated Press representative that
the interchange of traffic would not
cease. The company" the message

Lord Collins Bad Debts.

LONDON, March 4.-Lord Colin Camp
BELLS attempt, which terminated in the
courts yesterday, to obtain his discharge
in bankruptcy as the result of his in
ability to pay his debts, failed miSer-
ably. The judges decided that the law
required that legitimate bankruptcy
must result solely from misfortune over
which the applicant for discharge had
no control, whereas Lord Collins failure
was caused by the divorce proceedings
lie had instituted against his wife, over
which he had full control. 1t was not a
misfortune within the meaning of the
law that he had expended his money in
counsel fees and other legal expenses in
his endeavor to obtain from his wife a
divorce which the jury had decided he
was not entitled to-,

tonight the general condition of the
German crown prince was unchanged.
The patient passed a good night and a
good day. He eXpectorated much less
frequently, and the throat felt more
comfortable A cold wind was blowing
to-day, but the patient passed a short
time on the balcony, protected
by screeus. Prince William has
postponed his departure. He
spends much time with his father.
Prof. Waldmeyer has not yet visited
the crown prince. He is busy making
microscopic examination of the matter
discharged from the princes throat. 1t
is noted that the doctors are now at
tending to the patient more closely than
ever. Dr.. Bergman signed the Sunday
morning bulletin. The crown princes
strength has increased since the sleep
ing draught was discontinued, and
the mucus from his throat is
now but very slightly tinged
with blood. A more hopeful feeling
prevails. Prof. Waldmeyer's opinion
will be sent to Berlin and will be given
to the crown princess, but will not be
published. DR.. Mackenzie conferred
two hours with Prof. Waldmeyer to-day.
1t is stated that the crown princess has
sent telegram to Queen Victoria, say
ing: "God be thanked. There is again
room for hope"
On Saturday evening the crown
prince had complete dinner served for
the first time since the operation, and
he enjoyed 1t very much.

CHURCHILL's NEW ROLE.

Randy Leads q Movement Tor the
Workingmen.
LONDON, March 4.-Lord Randolph
Churchill presided over a conference
held yesterday to receive the prelimin-
airy report of the executive committee
to provide assistance for the unem-
ployed Workingmen of Paddington.
Taking the lead in any movement cal
culated to benefit the unemployed peo-
pie of London is a role which the versa
tile Lord Randolph Churchill has re-
Gently added to his repertoire, and it
must be said that his first appearance
in the character of a phil
anthrophist was eminently successful.
Referring to the work of the executive
committee he commended The success of
the small local funds which had been
accumulated toward relieving the dis
treSs of the enforced idlers, the useful
ness of which, he said, was in marked
contrast to the larger efforts of the
mayors of the larger towns throughout
England, which, though promising
greater results, had fallen short of gen
eral expectation. Abiding to the work
ingS OF the poor law Lord Churchill
asserted that if the committee
were converted into society for the
solution of great social questions it
would pass beyond the sphere of use
fulness into realm of organized incom-
potency. This is the general Tory view
of the matter, and, despite the enor-
nous amount of distress prevailing, the
unanimous sentiment of the party is in
favor of small funds for local distribu-
ton rather than the creation of public
works of doubtful legality for the sake

DUBLIN, March 4.-The anniversary

A Court Martial Asked.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March Army and
navy circles are likely to be enlivened
with court martial growing out of the
criticisms of one officer about the in

pneumatic-torpedo-gun notoriety, and
Lieut.. j. w. Grayd0n, late of the navy.
of dynamite shell fame, are the officers
involved. Capt Zalinski, in a lecture
recently delivered, asserted, or was re-
ported to have asserted, that Graydon's
dynamite shells frequently exploded
prematurely and that three guns had
been bursted while experimenting
with them, all of which Graydon, in a
communication to the secretary of war,
pronounceS false and damaging to his
business interests. He therefore asks
for court martial to try ZalinSki for
conduct unbecomlng an officer and

After Sage and Gould Again.

New YORK, March 4.-Lawyers De-
lancy, Andrews and Nicoll have sent
the district attorney letter giving rea-
sons why the Kansas City bondholders'
case against Messrs. Gould and Sage
should be pressed upon the attention
of the new grand jury, despite
the failure of the last grand Jury
to indict. They hold that the court
erred in informing the grand jury that
the law as to limitations in such cases
is settled. The court should have adj
mitted that difference of opinion exists
in legal minds, and should have favored
an Indictment in order to bring the case
into court and permit of settling Of
the rule.
