General Review Of the
ii uat.On.

BUFFALO, Aug. 19.-Unless new compli-
cations develop, the status of the switch
mems strike shall be judged by the result
of the effort of the railroads tomorrow
The companies claim they have sufficient
men to operate tbs roads il proper protec-
lion is gwen them Two thousand troops
have been ordered out, but they claimed
they would not be sufficient and 1000
more were ordered and are here. Their
assignment to duty at all points where the
companies feel there might be danger has
been going forward today, and tonight
every command is assigned to duty.
Careful inquiry demonstrated beyond
dOuDt that the companies have sufficient
men to man the roads. To be sure the
strikers say the men being hold IN readi-
ness are restrained from liberty, and also
that the men were hired to work on west
ern roads and did not know they were ex-
pected TO WORK on the tied up roads In
Buffalo. If these allegations are true the
men may desert upon rne first opportunity.
il is not deemed probable, however, that
such defections would constitute more
than q small minority of those now await
ing work.
The Lake Shore road has enough men in
the yards tonigh to man the usual number
moved five trains and has in quarters more
than the usual number Of men employed.
THE SECOND FEATURE OF THE STRIKE
is what can and will be the next stroke Of
the leaders against the railway interests.
There is a conviction that efforts are being
strongly pushed toward the withdrawal
from work OF the hremen or trainmen or
both.
The fremen are holding q meeting, the
outcome of which may be determination
to quit work.
Master Workman Sweeney this evening
made attempts to reach
ARBITRATION OF THE DIFFERENCES
He addressed letters to the affected roads
reciting a history of the case and Offering
to submit the cause of the strikers to arbi-
tratiOn. The Lake Shore disputed the ale
cations in Sweeney's letter and the Central
sharply declined arbitration. as has the
Reading before.
Briefly the situation is as follows: The
only trunk line uninterrupted by the carry
ing of freight eastward is the Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western. One of the
western trunk lines from this city, the
Lake Shore is clogged and the Grand Trunk
of Canada is threatened with strike. The
Michigan Central, the other trunk feeder.
westward is involved like the Lake Shore
in the fortunes of the Central, and tho
only success Of tomorrow's efforts Of the
roads to move freight freely is now 10 be
the relief for the eastward carrying OF
traffic.
AT exactly this point the tact OF the
Leckawanna is brought strongly to light
This position of the Lackawanna is Just
as thoroughly appreciated by the strike
leaders as by any others, and the import
ance of what the men upon that line will
conclude to do, as to a sympathetic strike,
is hey end cavIl.

have been meats that did not bear the gov
eminent stamp, but ware certified to by
some German consuls in the United States,
which passed into Germany. They doubt

in Germany for our inspected meats. They
sell at so cents per hundred pounds higher
than the uninspected. Germany has
never refused our inspection. We have no

johnson County, Wy, to Be sued for Attor-

LARAMIE, Wy, Aug. 10. Judge David
son, Judge Ballard and Attorney Breckels,
who were engaged in the conduct of the
case of Johnson county against the invad-
ing stockmen are all here for the purpose
OF obtaining Judgment against Johnston
county for the amount of their fees, the
sum being $4,000. They have brought
suit for the amount.
Some cattle men who have interests in
Johnson county applied to the court asking
for an Injunction restraining them from
procuring judgment. The petitioners set
up the claim that Johnson county is up TO
the debt limit under the constitution. The
attorneys on the other hand contend that
the county is not up to the debt limit, be-
cause the funded Indebtedness is not shown
by the petition to have been incurred since
Wyoming's admission as state. Hence
the provision of the constitution does not
apply to this contract for counsel fees.
