HOW 1T WAS DONE.
Alleged Terms on Which the Railroad
Boycott Was Lifted.

CHICAGO, April 4th.-The Times says this
morning in reference to the calling of of the
boycott by the strikers, that it is the result OF
negotiations between the Brotherhood of En-
gineers and the Knights of Labor that a com
mittee from the Brotherhood went to Scranton
week ago to see Powderly and urged him TO
call out all Knights of Labor employed on the
road, and if the strike should extend to
other roads to call out the Knights there, as
well, to aid the striking engineers. In return
the engineers would make certain concessions.
The Times says Powderly refused to do any
thing to preeipitate general strike, which he
regarded as disastrous for all concerned but
finally agreed that if the boyeot were declared
of, and all except the "Q'' strikers went 10
work, he would call out all the Knights among
the 90 employees
The truth of this report remains to be seen.
No signs of it have as yet developed.

the ringsters were interested. He says also that
ne was watching the very opium for the SNUG
ghng OF which Gardiner has been arrested at
Ogdensburg, N. y, and requested to be allowed
TO follow it, but was refused, except at his own
expense.
Woen he was notified of his DISCHARGE he saws
he hunted up Beecher and accused him on the
public streets of Port Townsend of being a
Snuggler, and an alteration followed, in which
he struck BeeeheT, and there would have been
an interesting encounter had not the crowd
interfered. He says he viii prepare data that
will be convincing, showing Beecher to be en-
gagged in smuggling.

Strike Among Employees of the California
Door COmpany

SAN FRANCISCO, April 4th "A large proportion
of the employees of the California Door Com
pany at the factory at West Oakland went out
on strike yesterday afternoon, the cause of
the grievance being the lengthening of the
time OF labor to ten hours. There are about $50
men and boys employed at the factory, and of
this number all but about thirty five declared
their intention to do no more work with the ex-
tended hours unless given more pay.
The men have all been working nine hours q
day, but about a month ago they were told by
their employers that for the summer an hour ex-
ira would have to be added to their labor They
were informed that the order would go into

GETTING THE BuRLINGroN coRNERED.

1t is broadly stated that in lifting the boycott
the strikers calculated that all the roads that
had suspended relations with the SO" would
at once proceed to unload ON that company all
the cars that had accumulated, and that the
effect would be to swamp the 90 with freight.
Having achieved this, the Burlington would be
required under the law, to furnish proper faeili-
ties for handling the freight and this might
grow into lever to move the men back into
their old positions with the 90"
Up to tonight the judgment of the men seems
to have been good, but it will take time to dem
onstrate whether or not the Burlington is capa-
BILE of handling all the freight that is poured in
