Action Taken by the Trustees in Rela-

SAN Francisco, July 1.-THE Trustees
of the Chamber OF Commerce held an
executive session this afternoon, and
adopted the following:
ReSoJUed, That the Board of Trustees
meet with the Directors OF the Produce
Exchange and Board of Trade of san
Francisco and the Merchants Association
to consider the present disturbed indus
trial condition OF the State of California.
The Trustees were in session over an

freight. 1t is manifest that the company
could consent 10 no such proposition.
This would not only be an unjustiiable
discrimination IN favor of fruit against
all other classes of freight. but at the
same time it would be turning over the
absolute control of the railroad TO MIR.
Debs. If this proposition were acceded
to the fruitmen might be able TO have
their fruit carried this year. but they
must submit to the good pleasure OF Mr..
Debs, and there could be no assurance
that he would not at any time, by mere
caprice, order fruit suspended and engage
the railroad in carrying some other class
of freight, which for the time found
favor in his eyes. And there is nothing
to prevent any fruit shipper from obtain
ing the exclusive privilege from Mr..
Debs OF using the railroad for fruit ship
ments, thus excluding all other fruit
shippers. There is no honest fruit ship
per in this State who would think of
availing himself OF the favorable decree
of Dictator Debs while all other classes of
freight were prohibited shipment under
his orders. No one interested can afford
to accept such gratuity. 1t is evident
that this contest which is now being
made by the railroad company at its great
loss and sacrifice is in the best interest of
every industry and every law-abiding
citizen in tie State.

Federal Courts Asked to Enjofn Them

Federal Courts Asked to Enjoin Them
From Interfering With Mails.
CHICAGO, July 2.-Operations against
the strikers began to-day with confer
ence between United States Judges
Woods and Grosscup and Edwin Walker,
special solicitor appointed yesterday by
Attorney General Olney, and District
Attorney Gilchrist.
The lawyers submitted a bulky bill
asking the Federal Courts to enjoin the
strikers from interfering with the mails.
The bill covered all the roads.
The bill was originally drawn to en-
Join the strikers from interfering with the
mails, but it was modified under orders
from Washington to enjoin from inter-
ference with any trains. This protection
is brought under the Interstate Com
merce Act.
1t was believed at the Government
building that the injunction, which was
issued, will stop the strike.
Judge Woods said that the Marshal
would be expected to enforce it, and if he
were unable to do so, troops can be called
out.
1T is not necessary, said he. ''to issue
an injunction to prevent interference
with the mails, for such an Interference
is in itself crime for which the guilty
party can be arrested and indicted. 1t is
more necessary to issue an order to pre-
vent interference with interstate COM
merce. The only reason for issuing the
order at all is that it is means of meet
ing the present emergency, for the pro-
cess of arrest and indictment is slow''
The Judge said that tho order applied
to Illinois, the seat of trouble, and that it
can be entered in the courts of Indiana
and Wisconsin.
The men arrested for the violation of
the injunction will be brought before the
Court for contempt and can be punished
with imprisonment.

Dispatch Sent Out BY General Chair
man Myers.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-The following
is verbatim copy of the dispatch which
General Chairman f. V. Myers sent out
to all the officers and members of the
Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers
on the entire Southern Pacific system.
that is to say, on both the Pacific and
Atlantic systems:
TO Officers and Members: Do not under
any circumstances be drawn into the
present strike OF the American Railway
Union on this system. Stay by your en-
gines and do the work that under the
ordinary course of things is required OF
you in your position as engineers, regard
less of who may be doing other work on
your engine or train.
The Southern Pacific owns a three
fourths interest the Pullman cars on its
lines, and thus the strike Injuries them
much more than it does Pullman, and L
think they mean to make a bitter fight.
This advice is sound and for your best
interests, and is in line with advice from
higher authority than myself.
Wire me the sentiments of the men.
4. V. MYERS.
In answer to this message kilograms as
suring the Chairman of loyalty to the
brotherhood were received all day. The
assurances in every case were unqualified.

SAN FRANCISCO, July -Four COM

LATER-The report that United States

fact that all OF the First Infantry has

against the report that Sacramento will
be supplied with troops. No more infan-

Although the destination of the soldiers

EDITOR Bulletin: L took the liberty Of
addressing you a communication on the
subject OF the existing railroad boycott,
and have occasion TO thank you sin
cerely for the courteous treatment re-
ceived at your hands. both on account of
the manner OF its reception by you and
the seemingly candid consideration given
to the view adopted by The railroads of
the country in this alleged controversy.
l am fully at liberty to use the term
alleged in this relation, because. in fact,
no controversy whatever exists between
the Southern Pacific Company and its
employees.
THE gravity of the situation empha-
sises the necessity for thoughtful. candid
and reasoning consideration. Both the
striking employees and the railroads are
assuming grave responsibilities. The
mail service has been suspended, COM
meree and trade have been arrested, in
dustries have been paralyzed, and the
producers of perishable commodities
whose profit depends upon expeditions
train service are being bankrupted. In
short, both public and private rights are
being ruthlessIy trampled under foot.
