speaking of the salaries received by Cf-
fcials of that road said: This Mr.. Sloat
is reported TO have said in his speech at
the state house the other evening, and to
have repeated in many places that the
Santa Fe receivers are receiving enor-
nous salaries. Now l want to say
this, that the receivers have not
the least idea what their salaries
will be. Judge Caldwell has the say in
the matter and he can fix it at any
amount he may choose. If he gives US
but $500 year we will have to take it
and say nothing.
at is not likely that my salary will be
as large as that paid the other receivers
for the simple reason that they are EN-
ployed in other capacities for the com
pany and are entitled to more. l do
not suppose, however. that Mr. Reinhart
will receive an additional salary as re
ceiver on top of that received by him as
president of the company"
Judge Caldwell has not issued any
orders on the matter of salaries although
it was stated ten days ago that he had
decided to allow no salaries in excess
of $4,000 a year and that all officials
who had received more than that amount
would be compelled to wait until they
have earned all the money paid them.

Brighter skies For the santa Fe Railroad
System


System
No strike cloud seems TO disturb the
sky of the general manager Of the Santa
Fe today. He said to a reporter this after
noon: 4 consider the situation much
more encouraging for Us now than
running once and we
will have the entire road cleared up by
tomorrow. We are really having no
trouble now, but tn rust has not yet
been worn of sufficiently IN some places.
We are reaching Chicago all right, and
have had no trouble there. The strike is
played out SO far as we are concerned
tFThere is no strike the Santa Fe
now," said another official today, 'sall our
trains are running on time and our dead
freight is being cleared up as rapidly as
possible We have two extra freight
trains out of Topeka We are having
no trouble in securing all the men we
want to man our trains and do all
kinds of work. All the passenger trains
are on time today excepting Nos and
4. the latter being several hours late and
the former coming in part of No 1.
Everything is all right at Emporia once
more and / consider this the most en-
couraging condition we have had since
the strike began"
In regard to the situation at Emporia
the A. r. U. private cores pondence Of
today tells contrary story. According
to the daily letter the yard work at that
place is very limited. Only one green
crew is working it says and freight

which is really the division end.

prominent A. r. L. man this morning,

hoo VII in
man of the train was back in the
evening and told me that the train only
went to Holiday and came back from
there, making no attempt to get into
the strike is unquestionably being slowly
overcome.
The Santa Fe is making an effort to
secure men among the shop men here to
take the places of shop strikers at Ar
gentine La Junta and Trinidad; also a
few places in Kansas. About twenty
five men have been applied to, but
yet none have consented to GO
The A. r. L. people consider this an en-
couraging Indication TO them, but the
railroad officials say it is because they
do not assure the men permanent en-
plOyment at big wages, with protection
thrown in. The first thing d man wants
to know is how much It Is going TO cost
him to live there, and the company can't
tell him.
General superintendent A j. HIT OF
the Rock Island says that his road is in
first shape once more and that all
kinds Of freight are being received
excepting live stock for Chicago
All the local trains are again
running and the through trains are
on time. The road, he says. has resam-
ed its entire business at and from Blue
Island west and efforts will be made to
get Chicago to working today. He
thinks they will of course have trouble
there but expects the troops to take care

The case grows out of the murder of
Ed Cash at GatesvilIe two months ago
by masked men, who took him out and
hung him, Kidding his body with bull

participation in it. The prisoners APP

of them were discharged
This action was met by a public meet

adopted resolutions calling upon the leg

criminal negligence in the hearing of
the case. Arnold and Taylor represented
the state in the habeas corpus proceed

The latest fight on Chase is being
made through the federation Of labor.
Chase donated to a church society the
work of convicts in putting in the foun-
datiOn for a church at Lansing. The
federation is making the fight on the
ground that Chase went out of his way
to take work away from the laboring
men, and resolution denouncing him
was passed by the Leavenworth fedora
ton of labor. The Topeka federation
will also be asked to take action.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. July 10.-In talking
Of the strike situation, the governor said:
81 he state has six regiments of in
fantrv. two troops of cavalry and two
battaIions Of artillery with gatling guns
in Chicago In addition 10 that there
are great many hundred deputies sum
moned by Sheriff Gilbert, whom the
state assisted in arming early in the
strike
Besides these forces and besides the
regular policemen of Chicago, there are
several thousand extra policemen, who
were put on duty early in the strike.
The forces, state and local, have the stu
alton thoroughly in hand, and if there is
no extension Of the strike into other
trades. the trouble will be all over in
few days.
SHOULD the strike extend among other
trades, it Will take a week or so longer.
We have been furnishing the railroads
prompt assistance in the way of prOtec-
ton all over the state whenever and
wherever called on and during the past
week have had troops at six
different points outside of Chicago, and
during the last four or rve days there
has been very little difficulty over the

men to operate their trains have been
running nearly all their regular trains
