FIZZLE OF THE STRIKE.
THE DELAWARE AND HUDSON
MEN RESUME WORK.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE Grand Cen
tral depot had fairly assumed its normal
appearance this morning. Whatever may
be said of the status Of the strike in Albany,
there is no indication here that the railroad
has been crippled. There is no sign of the
tiremen striking. Chief Arthur of the
engineers brotherhood says his organiza-
tion is not taking any part in the strike,
and that he does not believe the firemen
will either.
THE DELAWARE AND HUDSON STRIKE.
ALBANY. N. Y, Aug 14-General Man
ager Young. when asked as to the status of
the Delaware and Hudson strike this morn
ing, said that Supt. Hammond was In the
yards at O'Clock this morning. Nearly all
tbe men who are out reported for duty. He
said, however, that they could not go to
work until they had received orders from
their committee who were in consultation
with the leaders Of the Central STRIKE Mr..
Hammond told the men that unless they
went to work by II o'clock their places
would be filed by other employees OF the
company who were on their way here from
various points along the road. Mr. Ham.
mond said at noon: I'VE will have
enough men to man the switches and handle
freight, traffic of which will be resumed
this afternoon. A committee from the men
thought they would ask for another consul
tation, but we have heard nothing from
them as yet. The men are only out in this
vicinity"
NOT THOROUGHLY ORGANIZED.
From another reliable source it was
learned that the employe of the Delaware
and Hudson are only organized between
here and Troy, aud there is no fear of
general tie-up on this road. There was not
much perishable freight here except what
arrived this morning for the summer hotels
up north, and this will be- sent up to-day.
Passenger trains are running on time.
Supt. Bissell said there had been no
change in the situation on the Central rail
road
THE FIRST FREIGHT MOVED.
ALBANY, N. Y, Aug. IA, 7 p. M.-Two
hundred Pinkerton men, about a quarter of
whom are armed, took possession of the
West Albany freight yards this morning.
New hands, from the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy road, went to work and about
10 o'clock the first attempt to move freight
was made. The first freight train since
Friday left West Albany, bound west,
at 2:45 o'clock this afternoon. There
was no disturbance. The conditions in the
Delaware and hudson strike have not ma
terially changed. No freight has been
moved out Of Albany on that road. The
strikers got on to the men who came from
Chicago, with the result that forty-two of
the experienced western railroad men who
were to be put to work refuse to go to work
and are now in consultation with the Cen
tral strikers.
DESERVING AT KARNER's
Twenty of the men who came from Bos-
ton, and have been working at Karner's,
eight miles from here, also quit work to-
day. To adj to this discouragement TO the
efforts Of the roads officials to move freight
green switchman from the Fitchburg
road neglected TO set a switch in the Albany
yards, resulting in the derailment of an
engine with six cabooses. In convention
with half a dozen men who came from
Chicago 1t was learned that many
men had been under contract for
weeks before the strike was declared, and
when they were asked Friday to come on
here they refused. The men on Saturday
were then told that the Central strike had
been settled, and they were wanted to fill
the places or men the company would not
take back. 1t was also said that large
number of western engineers and firemen
have been under contract with the Central
for month past to come here to work.
D. AND H. MEN RESUME WORK

the Delaware and Hudson road have agreed
to return to work. The night force went
on at o'clock tonight. aud the day force
will go on at 8 o'clock tomorrow. The men
have become satisfied hat their sTspicions of
the Delaware and Hudson company In
knowingly handling Central freight were
unjustiied.
