INDORSE THE STRIKE.

Meetings of the A. II. o. and Con-
duotors.
The spectacle OF over 800 idle pssaen-
ger coaches and engines at the San Fer
nando.street station of the Southern
Pacific is enough to cause every one who
sees it to wonder how long it will last.
The outlook for Immediate communica-
ton with the outside world seemed
gloomy, as did the quiet, closed Offices
OF the railway companies all over the
city.
A, the various stations the ticket win
dows were closed all day, and the pros
poets for their reopening were remarked
upon by many who knew no more about
it than the modern prophet does regard
ing the next earthquake or the dawn OF
the millennium.
At the River station the etrikers stood
around in groups and watched and
waited for dispatcher from elsewhere.
Since the shopmen and car repairers of
both the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific
have zone out, the crowds OF strikers
have necessarily increased.
The headquarters of the union men
was at Secretary Clune's store, opposite
River station. but later in the day it WAS
changed to 1908 San Fernando street,
the hall occupied by the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers. At Clune's store
dispatches were received asking and Civ.
ing instructions regarding the outeide
situation in various cities and towns.
The receipt OF new telegram caused the
men to surge in great crowds around the
bulletin boards until the news was made
known TO all.
The conductors held secret meeting
and the engineers and other trainmen
were in session most all day. The en-.
eineers of the Santa Fe system will hold
q formal meeting at 8 O'Clock this morn
ING, The other men will also continue
their meetings.
Alta meeting Of the local engineers of
the Southern Pacific vote was taken
upon a resolution endorsing the boycott
versus the Pullman cars and the strike
ordered by the American Railway union.
The frat vote etood 80 to 2 in favor of
the resolution. The second vote was
unanimous in iayoring the boycott and
the strike.
The conductors held meeting last
eveping at which United States At
torney Dsnis wac present, by request.
Ho read and explained the law mention

TIE A. II. us APPEAL.
The local A. r. U. council has posted
a notice to oil the railroad employees,
whether members of the union or not.
setting forth that their co-laborera and
brothers IN the town OF Pullman are
now ON O strike against one of the great
est ioeo of organized labor in the country.
The A. r. u. has therefore declared a
boycott against the Pullman cars and
has deemed it prudent to order a
general tie up on the Southern Pacific
| and Santa Fe SYSTEMS.
/ The American Railway union begs
for united support, and muet win the

The American Railway union men

train to bring their men from San Bsr-
nardino and other points to this city
Mr.. Wade told them that If they would
move the three tied up trains at Bar
atow he would give them all the special
trains they wanted.
The men held lengthy consultation
and decided to not move the trains from
Barstow. Then the railway company
served an injunction, restraining anyone
from interfering with the trains and
started relief train to Baratow under
guard OF United States deputy marshals,
TO bring in the suffering passengers.
Shortly after the special train with
the deputies had left 1t was given out
that President Dabs of the American
Railway union had cent orders to the
strikers to move the tied up A. & p.
trains at Barstow to this city, to keep
the passengers from further suffering.
Some of the strikers commended that it
wes upon those orders that crew was

An Application to Aid in Forwarding
tho San Francisco Overland.
At III O'Clock last night United States
District Attorney Denis was applied to
Tor United States deputies to meet the
trains which left Oakland yesterday att
ernoon and which are expected here this
morning. and If possible have them run
on through to FL Psso and the east with
overland mails. The application was
made to the attorney in the absence Of
Marnhal Covarru bias, who 10 seriously
i'll. Mr.. Covarrubias does not even
know that there ia strike, his condition
being such that the excitement of hib
Office affairs in connection with the great
tie-up would greatly endanger hia
chances OF recovery.
Mi. Denis was in conference with some
OF the Southern Pacific officials until
late hour last night, and owing to GER
tain circumstances no definite action
was taken, 20 far as known, regarding
the organization of a posse to aid the
trains in being sent through.
Ihe Southern Pacific overland from
Ell Paso arrived on time at Z O'Clock last
evening, bearing full crew of men and
consisting of passenger coaches and
Pullman cara. A large amount Of
southern mail was received on the train,
but there was not q great number of
passengers. One of the railway mail
clerks who arrived on the train stated
that the arrival of this train completed
the tie.up on the Southern Pacific cast
OF Los Angeles. He lad heard at Ell
Paso that not another train was moving
on the entire syetem, and the reason
this train wsa allowed to proceed was
owing to the fact that it had started
before the strike was ordered.
