is addressed to President Cleveland
and abounds in passages which will

of employees, 22I. O97.
AS to the great railroad strike
proper the report says:
''It is apparent that the readiness to
strike sympathetically was promoted
by the disturbed and apprehcnsive
condition of the railway employees. re-
sulting from wage reductions ON the
different lines, blacklisting, etc, and
from tho recent growth of the General

impressed with the belief. by the evil
dence and by the (attendent circum-
stances us disclosed, that q different
policy would have prevented the loss
OF life and the great loss of property
and wages occasioned by the strike"
Tho report declares that the arrival
of troops ut Chicago was opportune,
but says that United States deputy

selected by and appointed at the re-
quest of the General Managers Assoc

by tho railroads and acted in the
double capacity OF railroad employees
and United States officers. "While
operating the railroads they assumed
and exercised unrestricted United

their employers, or whenever they re-
garded it as necessary. This placing
officers of the Government under con-

The commission Celebrates it's ideas
on the matter of q permanent national

suggests the consideration by the

of conciliation and arbitration, like
that, for instance, of Massachusetts,
