WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH cHlcAaol


CHICAGO, Feb. 27-Mayor VarnelI, OF Mt
Vernon, Ills, was in this city Saturday to
present the needs of his community to the
citizlns here. He drew distressing picture
of the condition of the town, and said that
if SlO0, 900 was not mt there at once the suf-
fering would be terrible. II was in fact
terrible now. The needs comprise overy-
thing that enters into the construction of a
town-bu!ding material of all kinds.
Besides that, clothing and provisions
were Indispensable, many of the uufort-
unates had lost everything they had He
gave instances. Capt. S. T. Strattou man

prompt and generous, Mr. Varnel was
evidently disappointed with the way Chicago
was moving in the matter He expected $780,
900 at least from city that would be very
much diff rent from what 1t is il the nation
had been as niggardy in its time OF need as
Chicago is proving itself now, with barely
$40, 00l to give TO the relief of suffering

into words but went home with heavy
heart Said he:

WHAT WILL THE KNIGHTS Dor


New York, Feb. 81. "A special to The
Sun from Reading says: The impending
strike of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers ofithe Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
road is of considerable interest to the 20 en-
gineers of the Reading railroad, who lost
their places during the recent trainmen's
troubles. These engineers were Knights of
Labor, and most of their places were OBJ
tanned by brotherhood men, whom they sup
planted ten years before. They now propose
to retaliate, and a movement to this effect
was started Saturday along the line of the
Reading road. In case of strike on the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy. road they
propose offering themselves for the places of
the striking brotherhood men. delegation
will probably leave for Chicago early this
week, with more to follSw.
CHICAGO, Feb. 27-ihe following has
some significance apropos Of the c. B. s. @,
strike. 1.-THE Knights of Labor will take no
hand in the Burlington strike" said Grand
Worthy Foreman Richard Grifiiths to re-
porter; "the brotherhood and the road can
fight it Out between themselves. There is no
very good feeling existing between the
Knights of Labor and the brotherhood Of
Locomotive Engineers Twoyears ago when
the great strike occurred on the Missouri Pa
cific road and the engineers belonging to the
Knights of Labor were ordered out, brother
hood engineers took their places and
the back bone of the strike was broken"
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 27.--Capt George L.
Eastman, national organizaer of the
Knights of Labor, is authority for the state
ment that the executive committee of the
Reading railroad strikers has notified Cen
eral Manager Stone Of the Chicago, Bur-
lington & Quincy railroad, that in the event
of strike on his road, apd the failure Of
Chief Arth UT to withdraw the brotherhood
engineers who took the places of strikers on
the Reading road, they will send him 800
engineers at once
