OUTLOOK THREATENING.

BLUE ISLAND, Ill, July 2.-The present
outlook here is not the most propitious

reared.

ST. LOUIS STRIKE STATUS.
Freight Traffic Practically Stopped--Str
kers Ask for Arbitration.

ST. LOUIS, July 2-The status of the
railroad strike here as the day closes is
that of almost complete interruption of
freight traffic, while passenger trains made
up by yardmasters and number of termi-
nal association switchmen who have re-
turned to work are practically on time.
On both sides of the river all switchmen
have struck except those of the Wabash,
Western and St. Louis, keokuk and
Northwestern. In all about 1900 men
have gone out in all the yards aud perhaps
1000 more have been either thrown out in
unskilled lines of labor by the detection
Of the switchmen and their allies. The
only addition to the ranks of the strikers
today were the freight brakemen of the ST.
Louis division of the Louisville aud Nash
vile who have laid up that division. The
managers of the lines entering st. Louis
continued today their preparations TO fight
the strike and declare they will soon be in
good shape again. Tomorrow ut noon the
time for the striking men to return TO
work, as laid down by the employing roads,
will expire, and after that new men will
be put at work. Just where these men
will be placed in the yards and elsewhere
has not been determined. but it will not be
until Mr.. II. w. Gays, who has control of
the situation for the general managers, is
sure he has sufficient force TO complish
his objects-and according to the way in
which new men are being listed, Mr.. GAYS
is confident that that time will not be
many days away.
United States District Attorney Clapton
received instructions from Attorney Gem
eral Olney this afternoon to see to it that
there is no interference with mail
trains here. In accordance with this
order, United States Marshal Lynch has
stationed deputies at the Union depot to
protect trains aud arrest all persons offer
ing interference.
A committee Of strikers called on Mayor
Walbridge to secure his good Offices In he
direction of arbitration of tue strike. The
mayor agreed to act with others that
might be selected with the assent of all in
terested parties. The committee then
called on the directors of the Merchants

WASHINGTON, July 2.-Representative
Grain today introduced in the house q res

COMMITTEES to investigate the great railway
strike and its causes and remedy. The res
olution was as follows:

relations between labor and the Pullman

corporations carrying on Interstate COM

states, menacing and ohstrucJing inter
state trans ortation of freight and pas
sengers aud the United States mail, invol-
wing 10 greater or less degree the COM
merce and business OF the country and .he
general welfare of the people, and hence
becoming a matter Of national concern.
therefore be IL
Resolved, that the committee on inter
state and foreign commerce be hereby au-
thoriZsd and dIrecJed 10 investigate the
cause and extent OF the dis bed condition
existing in such states or IN any of the
states. Said committee shall have power
TO visit the places where sucG conditions
exist, send for persons and papers, exam
inc witnesses under oath and employ a
stenographer and shall report the result
to the house with such recommendations
as it may deem proper TO make.
Mr. Grain said Of his resolution: "Tech-
nlcaIly IL may De SAID congress mas no
power TO srbitrate, but in these great con-
fiicts which cross state lines and involve
the whole country congress is the only
possible power which can act. Moreover,
the moral effect of a congressional inyes-

HIGH OFFICIALS CONFER,
Cleveland, Olney, Gresham, Lamont
Schofeld and Miles Hold Conference.

WASHINGTON, July Am extended con-
ference was held at the white house last
ing from o'clock until midnight. There
were present besides the president, the
secretary of war. Attorney General Olney,
Major General Schofield, Secretary Gresh-
am and General Miles, who has been on
leave aud will return TO his headquarters
at Chicago tomorrow morning.
When the conference was adjourned the
officials were very reticent in regard to the
result. It was learned, however, that the
situation had been reviewed in detail and
the general policy of the administration
as outlined in early dispatches was reiter-
ated. The views were TO the effect that
while the strike was likely to fall of its
own weight aud from lack of thorough
organization, yet it was necessary for all
authorities to be on the alert and check at
the outlet any overt and lawless acts.
Ii was held that The law was amply SUI
fcient to authorize federal Intervention
whenever conspiracy was shown as well as
when mails were interfered with or the
interstate commerce act infringed. No
specific directions Were given General
Miles. He will leave for Chicago tomor-
row morning and resume control of his
forces concentrated near that point.
