never walk out, and his men are also de-
termined. Many Of them left camp and
are begging for food tonight.

Railway Union wired President Debs to-
day, asking him if Grand Master Work
man Sovereign was authorized, as had
been lntimated. to call out the railway
employees to secure a train for the army.

was issued to all laboring men to meet in
front of the citizens headquarters and to
march to the State House at 8 A. NJ. to-
morrow and to demand that Governor

General Weaver and others. was reached,
and was adopted as last fesort.
Governor Jackson was informed of the
action of the labor organizations about
midnight, and was much surprised at the
proposed demonstration. IF the people
go out to the CAPITOL he said, Il will
receive them cordially and listen attent-
lively to what they have to say. 1 have
not had time to consider the matter, but
[ do not see what | can do. There is no
action for me to take, that | know of, and
