Omaha, Neb., August 16.-Over 1900
men have been formally discharged
from the Union Pacific as the result
of the great strike, and others are being
replaced each day. Twenty engineers
and firemen are included in the list.
Some of the engineers and firemen, par
ticularly on the west end, were with
the company for twenty years and up
ward. In most cases the men do not
blame the company for the. action
taken, saying that they were misled by
the American Railway union. and that
they made a mistake in going out at all
Notwithstanding. however. the feeling
that ran riot along the Wyoming and
Idaho divisions, only two engines were
disabled
In some cases, the places of the
strikers have been filled witt new men
but SO Stagnant is business that some
of the places remain untitled until bust
ness warrants an increase in the pay
roll. Every man who went out on a
strike is known at headquarters and
the blacklist book has grown greatly
since the reports have commenced to
come in from division superintendent
as to the number of men discharged
and causes leading up to their retire
ment from the service.

Chicago, Aug. 15.-The Southern Pa
icific has issued invitations to all inter-
ested lines asking them to be repre-
scented at a meeting to be held in Chi
cago, August q, for the purpose of re-
iviving the Transcontinental associa-
ton. 1t is understood that the Cana
dian Pacific, Northern Pacific and
Great Northern are agreeable to the
resurrection of the association, but it
is doubtful whether the Southern Pa
cific will be in it although it has agreed
to send representative to the meeting.
The association can hardly be formed
inside of three months. unless the other
lines are willing to leave the Atchison
and the Union Pacific on the outside,
which is hardly probable.
The 500 line has announced an ad-
vance in second class rates from ST.
Paul to San Francisco of So via Port
land and via Victoria. The reason Civ
en- for the advance is that the road is
about to abandon its claim for differ
entails on this kind of business.
Regular passenger rates will not. be
interfered with.

San Francisco. Aug. 16.-New and un-
expected complications have arisen
here in the Ezeta case.
1t became known today that war
rants for the arrest of the refugees
have been in San Francisco since Tues
day. but that owing to dissensions
among the local representatives of the
government of San Salvador. the docu-
ments cannot be served.
The gunboat Bennington continues, in
the meantime, to cruise off the heads,
beyond the three mile limit while the
lawyers who are here representing the
San SalvadOrean government are en-
deavoring to patch up the affairs OF
the local consulate.
The trouble here is due to the fact
that the cOnsulship is held by a man
who owes his appointment to EXPIRES
ident Ezeta. and who is still loyal to
the deposed president. though the new
government has recognized him IS its
official Carlos f. Yrigoyen is the To-
cal consul Nearly three weeks ago he
left San Francisco suddenly and went
to New York. and it is said now that
his purpose was to meet eX-President
EZeta when he should arrive there.
Soon afterward Vice Consul Kelly de-
pdIleu iOT MEXICO, ledNi0S the affairs
of San Salvador 20 be looked after by
Mariana Roma. who formerly repre-
scented San Salvador here. Roma, like
Consul YringOyen and Vice Consul
Kelly, is friendly to the Ezetas and will
do nothing to jeOpardize their cause.
AS a result the warrants of arrest are
lying in Consul Yringoyen's office and
there is no one who will officially place
them in the hands of the United States
marshal
Consul Yrigoyen is speeding back to
San Francisco as fast as steam will
carry him, but those in a position to
know declare that he can be depended
upon to do nothing that would injure
his friend Ezeta. 1t is probable. how
ever. that Yrigoyen will be deposed as
consul. 1t is said his successor is now
en- route here by steamer from San Sal
vador
l.. G. Gonzales, son of an influential
commission merchant is also mentioned
as q possible successor.

put to by the harbOring of the SaIvadO-

The old regulation No. 2S7, reads as
follows:

strictive. reading as follows:
THE rights of asylum for political
