The Only Delays in Trains said to be at
Albany.
New YORK, August 14th.-Vice- Presi-
dent Webb, of the New York Central, said
this morning that the only delay incident
to the strike was at East Albany. Every
where else things were moving as usual.
Webb did not put much faith in the
rumor that the fremen would be called
out and strike on the Delaware and Hud-
son.
He regarded it as email matter and
easily settled.
Local Assembly 17O6 of the Knights of
Labor of Doyer's Plains denied to-day the
truth of the report that the Assembly had
disbanded. Lee affirmed to-day the report
that everything was progressing satisfac-
torily, and he said the men were as deter
mined as ever.
AT ALBANY.
ALBANY, August 14th.-General Manager
Young, of the Delaware and Hudson Rail-
raad, this morning said: NEARLY all the
men who were out have reported for duty.
They said, however, that they could not go
to work until they received orders from
their committee. who are in consultation
with the leaders of the New York Central
strike. Unless they go to work at noon
their places will be filled by other en-
ployes of the company now on the way
here from various points along the road"
The employees of the Delaware and Hud-
son road are only organized between here
and Troy, and there is no fear of general
tienp.
Two hundred Pinkerton men, part of
them armed with Winchester rifles, took
possession of the West Albany freight
yards this morning.
New hands in sufficient numbers were
present to operate the yards and they went
to work to move the freight. No violence
is anticipated.
THEY WILL NOT TAKE PART.
CLEVELAND, August 14,h.-P NJ Arthur,
Chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers, says positively that his organ
ization will not take part, and he does not
believe the firemen will either.

Labor held session here this afternoon,
and it is stated that by tomorrow noon the
Central will find out that the strike is not
over.

RETURNED TO WORK.

who went out on strike on the Delaware
and Hudson at this point, have returned to

MASTER WORKMAN LEE SATISFIED.
ALBANY, August 14th.-Master Work
man Lee claims to be satisfied with the
condition of things in New York and this
vicinity. He said the Central road was
having hard time in their endeavor to
raise freight at West Albany. The strikers
got hold of the men who came from Chi
cago and Boston yesterday. with the result
that this morning forty-two experienced
Western railway men, who were 10 be put
at work at West Albany, refused to go to
work.
In conversation with half a dozen men
who came ON from Chicago, it was learned
that many men had been under contract
with the Central for weeks before the strike
was declared.
