AT LA JUNTA.
La Junta.-The Santa Fe officials an
, nounce that they will send out all regular
trains for California. Five strikers have
been arrested and taken to Denver, iu-
Guiding John A. Martin, chairman of the
executive committee, A. II. U.
FEW MEN AT WORK.
Cleveland.-At 2 o'clock the Lake Shore
claimed to have number OF men at work
! in eastern yards at Collinwood. The
Nickle Plate has one engine at work.
BIG FOUR MEN OUT.
Cleveland, Ohio, July 6.-The Big -Four
men went out this morning and that road
is now tied up completely, so far as can
be ascertained at this hour. The mem
bers of the A. r. U. were in session all
night and it is reported that it was de-
cided to tie up all the roads running into
the city to-day. Committees have been
sent out to notify the crews on the Lake
| Shore, Nickle Plate, Erie and other roads
of the action of the meeting.
| SLOWLY BUT SURELY.
Cleveland, Ohio Slowly but surely
the great railroad strike is sweeping east
ward. After the night session the men,
bers of the A. R. u, at which every rail-
road running into this city was represent
ed, it was decided at an early hour this
morning to tie up every line centering at
Cleveland by o'clock. The Big Four
yards are reported dead with the excep-
tion of an occasional passenger train.
The night force quit and the day men
failed to appear for duty.
LIKE CONDITIONS.
Like conditions prevail at Columbus,
Canton and on the southern roads, where
work ceased at an early hour and the
yards are as silent as the grave.
As soon as the long meeting of the A.
r. U. came to an end numerous persons
were started out in all directions to noti-
fly the men in the yards to quit work
LAKE SHORE MEN OUT.
At 8 O'Clock this morning the Lake
Shore men struck. Out of forty-eight
yard crews and engines of that road in
this city only one engine is working and
! the men said they had not yet been mott.
fed. One or two passenger trains arrived
and departed during the early morning
hours, but, as long freight trains are be-
ing constantly pulled into the yards and
deserted on the main tracks, it seems
probable that blockade will soon re-
suit.
/ IMPROVING AT ST. LOUIS.
st. Louis. Gradually improving seems
to be the railroad situation here. Pas
senger trains are now moving in and ou
with practically their usual regnlarit,
and in every case with full equipment
The morning trains got away to-day
without difficnlty,a and so far as the passen
ger service is concerned, st. Louis may
be said to be in its normal condition ex
cepting through Kansas City. Train
on the Alton road are still subject to de
lay occasioned by trouble at Slater, Mo
Freight traffic is growing better too, ant
more trains comprising larger number
of loaded cars are reported to have beer
handled during the past twenty-fou
hours.

on the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis
, Omaha road in this city struck thi

avoided.

to have contempt for their strength.
