Last Thursday at noon the entire
force of the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul Railway company here was laid
off, except Station Agent Webb, Oper-
ator McGolrick at the Junction, and
the night operators. The action was
taken on account of the road being tied
up as a result of the strike and there
being no freight business IN conse-
quence. Now, however, freight is be-
ing received and taken by both the
st. Paul and North western roads, and
trains are moving quite regularly. The
worst of the strike as affecting the rail-
roads seems to be over.
