A BILL OF EQUITY TO RESTRAIN INcITERs TO STRIKE FROM

ENTERING RAILROAD PROPERTY.
 ST. LOUIS, July 6.-W. H. Clopton, United States attorney for the Eastern dis trict of Missouri, this morning petitioned Judge Thayer of the United States circuit court to grant an omnibus injunction cov- ering seventeen railways in this city. The prayer for the injunction was accompanied by an elaborate argument called IA bill Of squity,b in which the United States dis trIct attorney sets forth the great hard ships and widespread damage which the strike has already imposed upon the peo- pie of Missouri and St. Louis, and points with menace to the general prosperity of the country which the continuation of the railway tie-up and traffic blockade will cause.
 Mir. Clopton asks that the persons named in the writ prayed for be enjoined from en- tering the yards, stations or upon the rights of way of railway companies enter ing St. Louis for the purpose of dissuading the employees of the companies from per forming the duties which the position de- mands.
 The persons named in the petition in- clude nearly every prominent member of the American Railway union in this city, and also include Vice President Howard and Director Elliott of the organization.
 Judge Thayer granted the petition. It covers the Santa Fe, Baltimore and Ohio, Terminal Railroad association, Missouri Pacific, Iron Mountain Cotton Belt, Frisco, keokuk and Northwestern, Terre Haute and Indianapolis, Louisville and Nashville, Missouri, Kansas and Texas, Chicago and Alton, Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, Merchants Bridge Terminal, Big Four, Wabash and Mobile and Ohio railways.
 GOVERNOR AND MARSHAL SPAT.
 KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 6.-Gen. J. 0. Shelby, United States marshal at Kansas City, sent several deputies to Slater to re- lease a train that was detained by strikers. Governor Stone resented this as an inter- ference with state rights and wrote General Shelby, asking him by what right United States officer interfered in trouble of this kind in the state, as he believed the state perfectly capable of taking care of it's own domestic affairs. Were it not able to do so and finding it necessary to call for aid from the general government, he would do so iu approved constitutional form. General Shelby replied tartly, adding that he WAS acting under orders from the attorney general to clear passage for the United States mail, and in pursuance of these or ders was to prevent such unlawful interfer: ence by arresting on proper warrants all such offenders and taking them before the proper federal tribunal for examination.

The strikers are going to work, each one having made application for work the same as new men.
 It is expected every minute that the men on the Lake Shore here will go out. The officals are getting in shape to meet the crisis. Trouble is also feared on the Mich igan Central and the Big Four. Telegrams of instructions are flying thick and fast. The Lake Shore is storing freight in cars all over the line, and many sidings are al- ready full. Perishable freight and passen- ger trains are being rushed to their desti- nation with haste, and this division is being cleared for action.

timony had said that be had agreed to
testify against the moral character of
Aaron's wife before her marriage.
Mr.. Coates said be was glad Ct an
opportunity to set himself right before
the public in this matter. He was ap
preached by Holzberg while he was
employ ed by w. B. Raleigh e. Co. il this
city, and asked to go to Fargo and testify
as to his acquaintance with Miss Dell
Hogan. He was reluctant to 90 and
said that he knew nothing against
her character. Holzberg insisted
on her going and said that uergh-
field would pay all his expenses
and transportation. He finally agreed
to go. When he got there and
saw what villainous case was being
concocted against the girl be was sorry
he had allowed himself to be mixed up
in it in any way. His testimony on the
stand he says was about as follows: He
was first introduced to Miss Hogan by
dildebrand. She was working at
the time in the New York drygoods store
and he was working in the Boston cloth
ing store. At the first meeting she ac-
cepted an invitation to go buggy riding
with him, and did go the following Sun
day. A few days later he took her and
her sister Sadie to the theater and after
wards called on her frequently and took
her to various places. In fact, he was
paying her good dea! Of attention. In
all that time be never saw any
thing in her conduct unbecoming
a virtuous lady, "and," continued Mr..
Coates, with emphasis, "any person who
says that | ever told.any person in the
state Of Montana any different story, or
that ever cast any reflection on the girls
character tells a falsehcod.'
Being asked by the reporter why he
kept his destination secret when he went
to Fargo tn testify he said it was because
1t was no ones business
He expressed hope that the reporter
would publish all he had said, as he felt
that it was due him that he should be
set right in the community in which he

ST.. LOUIS, Nov. 27.--It was nearly
three-quarters Of an hour after the ap-
pointed time when President Whtmore
called the transmissippi congress to order
today The adoption of the report Of
the committee on credentials last night,
which enrolled all the appointed del
egates, properly accredited without re-
gard to their presence, gave an especial
point to the report of the committee on
rules and order of business, which pro
vided for the voting power Of each state
delegation, not to exceed thirty votes,
If SO many delegates are present all the
states are to have voting power of not
attending delegation. The report was
adopted without discussion. with the
exception of the clause limiting the
voting power of delegation AT this
point Delegate f. j. Cannon of Utah
moved to strike out the maximum limit,
thus giving full delegations vote for
o'eIy "du' iie euPPui 'eu 'Le hotioh
with the contention that the states and
territories sufficiently interested to send
all the delegates to which they were
entitled, should be allowed to vote such.
Ex- Governor Prince of New Mexico en-
dorsed the original report as necessary
to prevent the near by sections from
overpowering, by their easily transported
delegations, those unable to send full
delegation from far away points. All
transmississippi states are represented in
the convention, except North Dakota
and Nevada. Thomas q. Merrill and
w. H. Weed are the Montana members
OF the committee on resolutions.
