LOOKS LIKE A STRIKE
Bic Four Officials and Trainmen
Entirely Fail to Agree.
Doubtful as to Whether the Engineers
Will Join in It-BOiler Makers
Are Still Out.

The conference between President In.
gals and the tralnmen of the Big Four
was held at Cincinnati yesterday otter
noon. The committee demanded o revoca-
tion of the order Tor the cut in wages,
which was refused. In reply to q question
President Ingalls, agreed to q conference
with the chiefs of the brotherhood. when o
demand will be made and refused. A strike
appears inevitable.
superintendent Van Wrinkle received a
telegram from Cincinnati. last evening. ap-
prising him that the conference was I'M
satisfactory. no agreement being reached.
From what q representative of the Journal
was able to learn of the situation from the
officials. q strike is not so imminent as on
Saturday. the more conservative trainmen
not being SO confident that the trainmen
would win were they to ~precipitate q strike.
In speaking of the matter. one engineer
said that before the ngineers could strike,
ii the present conference 10 unsatisfactory.
the Brotherhood OF Engineers must vote
on the question. and 1t required q two
thirds vote of the bers of the several
divisions of tho brotherhood on the Big
Four system before the strike would con-
form to the rules of tho brotherhood. aud
he vas satisfied that. the way matters now
stood, the engineers would not vote favor
ably.
Speaking for the Cairo division. B. y.
Sutton. division superintendent. said his
men would not strike. as under the new
wage schedule they were RECEIVING more
than before 1t went into effect. Sept ].
An engineer at the Union Station. yester-
day afternoon. when questioned about the
strike. said he could put his finger on twen-
ty men within a few yards of the depart
ing trains, most of whom were competent
engineers. who were waiting for some en-
gineer's job. and would as soon get it
through a strike as any other
way. SO badly did they want work.
Under such conditions he preferred TO
hold down his job. The conductors have
not much to say. The baGGagemen on the
Chicago division are unhappy. They say
that they are now handling more baggage
than ever before and instead of decreasing
their pay it should be advanced. One OF
them said that SO far as their department.
was concerned the baggagemen on other
roads get better pay than on the Big Four.

Petition for n Report.


The petition for an order requiring the re-
ceiver TO make o report to the oourt al
leges that since his appointment he has
been in exclusive possession of all the rec
ords. books. documents and papers of the
order. and none of it's members have had
access to them or opportunity to inspect
them; that he has made no report since
his appointment of the amount or
character of the assets and liabili-
ties. or of his receipts or expenditures;
that by reason of his having possession of
the books showing the location of all the
subordinate branches. neither the supreme
nor subordinate bodies have been able to
have official communication with oaoh
other. and it is. therefore. impossible for
the members to acquire such information
as is essential to aid them in effecting a re-
organization and elect new officers to pre-
pare for the defense of the order upon the
final hearing of the cause. In addition to
asking that the court order the receiver to
make q report forth with. it asks that the
attorneys and members of the order be
permitted to xamin the records and books
in the possession of the receiver.

LET US HAVE LEGAL TENDER.

There is but one kind of money the

that creditor can thereafter have no
claim in court for the debt.

bulwark for a safe currency oyer the
