Notwithstanding Refusal Of Their De-
mands by Railroads No Strike Is
Likely Just Now,
But It Is Predicted That There viii
Be One In the Course Ofa
Few Days.
a Belief That the Roads May Take
the Initiative and Lock Their
Men Out.

CHICAGO, March 1t-Notwithstand-
ing the refusal Of the railroads center
ing here to accede to their demands, no
immediate strike of the switchmen is
anticipated if they comply with the
rules of their organization, which pre-
scribe that the question of engaging
in strike must be submitted to q vote
of all the lodges interested before any
action can be taken. There is posi-
bility, however, that some of the hot
heads may, as in the past, precipitate
action by quitting work of their own
notion. That would undoubtedly bring
on a general strike, as the switchmen
are noted for their disposition to strike
on the slightest provocation. Grand
Master Wilson, however, processes his
ability to
Hold His Men I'm Line
until the matter can be reached in the
regular way. He said that the rules Of
the Switchmen's union would be fully
complied with. If this is done 1t will
be several days before a strike can be
ordered, If any Is ordered at all. Mr..
Wilson credits the story from Balti-
more to the effect that the Chicago
roads have agents in that city hiring
switchmen and yardmasters. Fhe
switchmen generally believe that the
railroad managers had determined to
refuse their requests long before they
were formally presented, and realize
that If they strike they win have hard
fight ahead of them. No expression of
opinion could be obtained as to the
probable action of the lodges. 1t is be-
lieved, however, that there will be a
strike.
A lockout Likely.
At Q o'clock p. IN. the Chicago and
Eastern Illinois and other roads through
their officials requested the officers of
the switchmen's union to state what
their action would be in connection
with the refusal of the railroad COM
panies to grant their demands. This
fact, in connection with the statement
made by the switchmen that the COM
panies now have TOO men quartered at
various places in the city, under pay,
leads to the belief that the companies
mean to force the issue by locking out
the men.
Saw There VIII Be No Strike.
Conservative members of the Switch.
mems Mutual Benefit association de-
clare that the refusal of the railroad
managers to grant the increase settles
the matter, and that the switchmen will
have to grin and bear it. There will be
no strike, they say. Public opinion, in
the face of the circumstances, and the
statementof the railroads will be against
the switchmen.

Huronite,8: The Presbyterian church
was center OF special interest last Sun
day evening, because OF the announce
ment through the Huronite that the
Rev. Mr.. McGogney would express,
from his well-known rugged common
sense, some views on the temperance
agitation. This pastor admits no less
zeal in behalf Of true temperance than
others apparently more active in the
work, but he evidently does not share
the confidence Of all in the practicability
OF the enforcement OF present laws. In
his view the crime OF liquor dealing is
one that groups with different class
than OF murder, robbery, etc. Where
the seller is criminal the buyer must
be an accomplice, and to serve the ends
OF justice must be dealt with a. such.
The murderer needs no assistance from
the assailed, but the usurer. the prosti-
tute, ths liquor yender musthave victims
who are fellow sinners, and no law which
simply attacks the crime on one side can
ever 60 commend itself to the public
Judgment as to render it's enforcement
practicable. The seller and the buyer.
having equal guilt, must have equal
punishment before the law or the sense
of partiality and injustice will develop
very great obstacles to It's enforcement

Those who fed at the public crib by
the grace of Grover Cleveland four years
ago will learn with regret of their for
lorn condition during this admins
tration. La answer to some interrog-
atories of Mr.. Springer, the president
says no former officeholder need expect
an appointment from him this term, the
rule applying even as far down as
fourth class postmasters. The post
master general has also intimated that
no local business man need apply for
appointment as postmaster, as
such usually attend their own business
and run the postofice with the aid Of
irresponsible clerks much to the injury
OF the service.

NEw RAILWAYS.

There LIN Likely 70 BE Considerable
Increase i'm Mileage This Year.
ST. PAUL. March 1.-THE Pioneer
Press says: There is every indication
that the present year will witness q
large measure of activity in the matter
of railroad construction in this region.
Extensions viii be made, branch lines
built and roadbeds improved. These
operations viii be carried on principally
in the Northwest and South. To the
south, the Chicago Great Western will
in all probability build extensions to
Omaha and to Sioux City, besides max
ing considerable improvements to its
roadbed on the Dubuque division. Ex-
actly how extensive these operations
viii be depends upon the success of
MIR. Stickney's mission to England.
In the Northwest the 500 road wilt
push the western extension to the
Canadian boundary with all possible
haste, so as to secure connection with
the Canadian Pacific, and thus give this
section the benefit of another competi-
tive transcontinental line This work
will be finished by the end of August,
at least the agreement with the Cana
dian road is that trains will be running
through by Sept. /. In this state it is
considered probable that the Great
Northern will build branch from its
main line at Crookston to Duluth, and
thereby establish vigorous competition
with the Northern Pacific for the grain
trade of that region.
