because of the establishment OF gas

stated that the gas plant and nine miles
of main, the property of that town. had
been purchased by John w. Hayes,
Thomas b. Mcclure and Jacob Schonfar-

night at q meeting held at Arg tine,

order and quit work. Leaders of the
strike state that the road will be com
pfetely tied up at this point and will
not beable to move q train in any
direction.
There are over 1000 men employed
on tho Santa Fe at this point, and
while there Is some doubt as to how
many OF them will go out, it is posi-
lively asserted that there will be q
walkout of the switchmen. There
are half hundred swltchmen en-
ployed, and, with four exec ptions,
they are members of the Railway I'm

out.
The engineers will not run with

be a general tie-up of the road, so
they state.
