Great Northern Strike Settled
In Favor of the Men.
ALL THEIR DEMANDS CONCEDED.

American Raj Iway Union Successful In
Their First Big strike-Five Thousand
Men viii Go to Work at Once After
Being Out Eighteen Days-SettIement
Practically Reached by Arbitration.
ST. PAUL, May 2.-After being tied up
for Is days almost completely from end
to end, the Great Northern railroad sys-
tenn will now resume work, the great
strike being declared off. It is practi-
cally a victory for the American Rail-
way union and President Debs. although
the committee for the commercial bodies
of the two cities was largely responsible
for the result. Various conferences were
held by the committee with President
Hill and with the labor leaders. Mr..
Hill was pronounced in favor of arbitra.
ton all along and agreed to system of
arbitration if the men would resume
work. Finally the committee got them
to meet Tuesday afternoon. and the re-
suit is that the strike has been declared
off and the men will return to work at
once. The conference went over all de-
tails, and Mr.. Hill made great conces-
sions to the men, the result being that
the whole difficulty was settled then and
there.
It was settled really by arbitration,
the citizens committee being the judges,
the employees gained all the demands
while the company gained a settlement
by arbitration as Hill desired. The 4, 500
miles of track will be opened for bust
ness by over 1000 employees and the en-
tire northwest will be released from the
freight and passenger blockade that has
oppressed it for over two weeks.

Claims 1t Is Simply an Issue Between Unit.
ed Railroads and Organized Labor.
DIES, MONIES, May 3.-Grand Master
Workman Sovereign arrived IN Dee
Moines Tuesday with the ayowed inten-
ton of throwing the influence of the
Knights of Labor into an effort to Sc
cure train for Kelly's army. In an in
terview, Mr.. Sovereign said that his ac
ton was determined upon at meeting
of his executive board held in Chicago.
''What will you do if you are refused
a trainf'
81 can only repeat, he replied, ''thas
Kelly shall not walk out. The army
shall ride though every road in Iowa be
tied up. do not say that the knights
of Labor could take such action of itself,
but with the aid of the American Rail-
way union such a move would be sue
cessful. That organization and our own
are very close together. When 1 left Mr..
Debs in st. Paul his last words were that
anything we ordered his people would
stand by and I made similar PROPOSE
tion.
''This thing is simply an issue between
united railroads and organized labor and
if we cannot win here, we might as well
stop fighting. The issue is a square one
and we will meet it. We are in sympa-
thy with Coxey and Kelly movements as
it attracts public attention and invites
discussions of the interests we represent.
I am reliably informed that the majority
of Kelly's men are members of labor
unions, and we will neither let them
starVe nor walk out of Des Moines."

Seven Thousand Unemployed Men Pa
rade and Trouble Follows.
CLEVELAND, May 2.-Seven thousand
unemployed paraded the streets Thurs
day after listening to speeches in Monu-
mental square. In the line were many
unruly spirits. While on the Central
viaduct motorman refused to stop his
train while the procession passed and the
mob attacked and wrecked car. Later
nearly 100 shots were fired over another
car which was compelled to stop. Sew
eral persons were knocked down during
the march and others We're injured by
missiles thrown by the mob.
On Pearl street another riotous scene
occurred. A street car was totally
wrecked by the mob and the motorman
assaulted and, perhaps, fatally injured.
A policeman, who was on board, drew
his revolver, but before it could be used
the mob closed in on him and he received
very rough handling. Pistols were fired
in every direction. Many plate glass
windows were smashed and panic en-
sued in the crowded thoroughfares
There were many narrow escapes. but
fortunately no one was killed outright.
In Monumental park the marchels
peacefully disbanded.

The Death OF BoxIax aad wrestling At
Harvard.

CAMBRIpoE. March 2a-From certain events
to-day It seems probable that the current year
will prove an important one In the history OF
indoor athletics at Harvard. For ssverahyears
past there has been . decreasing interest In
wrestling and sparring and 1t looks now IS II
these sports have received their death blow IS
far a. their continuance at Harvard IL con-
cerned. At q meeting Of the Executive Com
mittes OF the Harvard athletic association
this afternoon II wAs voted not to hold the
scheduled second winter m Getting. which WAS
70 have been held next saturday, This was the
occasion at which all tho sparring and Wrss-
thing events In tho past have taken place but
this year Il was found impossible to raise any
interest whatever in the sports.
The declining popularity OF sparring and
wrestling has been viewed with favor By .
strong student sentiment and their death will
not cause great regret In Justice to the few
men who did enter the several events some In
formal opportunity will be given for them to
contest for the prizes which would have been
offered 1t 10 not improbable. however that
even this will fail. through the indifference Of
the contestants.
