Instead of inducing men to | return to work, 1t was contended. 1t | would result in driving thousands of members of railway organizations not affiliated with the union nor apparent ly In sympathy with It's present opera tons. simply because these men would not tolerate to the cracking | over their shoulders of their fellows of | a government whip that some day or | other, under similar circumstances, might be used as lash for their own
 shoulders.
 The opinion was confidently expressed
 In the strikers camp tonight that the | engineers and firemen of every road that attempted to resume operations by virtue or the injunction would imme- diately leave their posts. It was also
 asserted that 1t needed simply the for nal request of the officers of the union | to bring out every man, woman and child in Chicago identified with organ ized labor. Such a step, 1t was argued, could not result otherwise than in a speedy and absolute victory for the la | bor element. Such a situation and such an ending
 the leaders of the strike predict for the next twenty-four hours.
 Relative to the report that Dcbs is
 seeking to compromise with Pullman,
 John M. Eagan, manager of the General
 Managers association, says:
 1.-The railroad companies do not rec ognize in the strike the elements of
 'Pullmanism' and will not have it inter-
 jected into the question at any stage of any proposition. We have no compro- | mise to offer, and there IS none that we will accept. There is no backdown from our previously announced posi- tion and we are filling the places of the strikers whom we no longer consider in our service.h
 The Pullman company has also issued an official statement that the company
 has no compromise to offer and will not accept one. The managers say that ar- engagements have been made for the inn
 portation of from 1,500 to 2,000 men,
 mainly for railroad work in Chicago.
 The places of the men who struck and
 are striking are being filed as fast as
 possible, and the intent is to meet force
 with force.
 All the roads are anxious for display
 of military power. The following tele-
 gram was sent to-day by Grand Master
 Workman Sovereign of the K.. of l.. to
 President SDebs of the American Rail- way union:
 "Have left anything undone? Am
 willing to call general strike"
 The injunction issued by Judges Wood hvo nuk1f fl, Ts-
 land on the o'clock mail train by
 posse of deputy marshals. The order from the court vas handed to United states Marshal Arnold who called upon the strikers to gather around him and
 listen., Three thousa1d men, women and children quickly came within hear ing of. his voice. The marshal stood on a car platform and read the injunction. He was interrupted many times by de- liant and profane language, hooting and derisive laughter. When he had finished
 Robert Mather. assistant counsel for the Rock Island road, made speech explanatory of the injunction and the
 punishment for contempt of it. He
 was shouted down and finally obeyed
 the frequent calls to "shut up."
 After this the strikers scattered and
 officials of the road went to clear the
 track. In an hour and half the work
 was done. The moving cars swarmed
 with deputies inside and outside while being moved through the lines of ex- cited strikers. The engine which was run by Superintendent of Motive Power Fitzsimmons was filled with officers.
 The strikers were content to jeer and follow the cars into the yard.
 The only serious conflict which oc-
 cured was when the first attempt was
 made to haul two cars on the street
 ,rossing. They were heavily guarded, out the mob surged on the track in
 'ornt of the engine and climbed on the platforms. Chief Deputy Marshal Lo-. san was caught by the arm and pulled to the ground. He drew his pistol and
 attempted to arrest one of the men who pulled him off. The mob made a rush in the direction of the marshal and someone struck him in the back with
 knife, infiicting slight wound. Mar sral Arnold and several of his special deputies had their coats torn by the strikers pulling them off the cars.
 The marshal decided to desist from further efforts for the present. Resist ance to the mob would have resulted in riot. After the mail train passed the strikers again obstructed the track. When Marshal Arnold was informed of the block of the main track again he repeated his request for troops by tele- graph to Washington. It is generally believed that the Fifteenth United States infantry will be on hand to-mor- row.
 At 12 o'clock tonight Marshal Ar nold' 8 force was reinforced by 100 new deputies. Tonight the mob is in undis- puted possession of the property of the Rock Island railroad. It is alleged that the mayor, the members of the council, the local police. and private. citizens have done all that they could to ob- struct the traffic at Blue Island.
