ST. PAUL, MINI, May L-After being
tied up for eighteen days almost COM
pletely from end to end, the Great North
ern railway system will now resume work,
the great strike being declared of tonight.
1t is practically a victory for the Ameri-
can Railway union and President Debs,
although the COMMITTEES from the CONNER
cial bodies of the two cities was largely
responsible for the result.
Various conferences were held by the
committee with President Hill and the
labor leaders. Mr.. Hill WAS pronounced
in favor of arbitration all along, and
agreed to any system OF arbitration If the
men would resume work. Finally the
committee got them to meet this alter
noon and the result is that the strike has
been declared of AND the men will return
TO work at once. The conference went
over all details thoroughly and MI.
Hill made great concessions to the
men, the result being that the
whole difficulty was settled then and
there 1t was settled really by arbitration,
the citizens committee being the judges;
but the strikers gained all their demands,
while the company secured settlement
through arbitration as Hill desired. The
$500 miles of track will be opened for
business by over 5000 employees and the
entire northwest will be released from the
freight and passenger blockade that has so
PRESSED it for over two weeks.

INTERSTATE COMMERCE.
New Pooling Regulations Proposed by
Senaus Commerce Committee.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The sub commit
tee of the senate committee on interstate
commerce, consisting of Senators Cor
man, Camden and Cullen, to which was
referred the bill to permit railroad pool
ing, today reported the bill back TO the
committee with important amendments.
By one of the proposed amendments,
the portion OF the bill authorizing the
interstate commerce commission to issue
an order requiring that a pooling contract
between railroads, W hich in the opinion of
the commission results in unreasonable
rates or unjust discrimination be modi-
fled, giving the commission power to
enforce such order, is stricken out and a
SD Institute suggested instead of this pro-
vision, which provides that such order
shall be made only after investigation.
Instead OF giving the commission the au-
thority TO proceed to enforce the order
direct. the amendment authorizes an APP
peal 20 a circuit court of the United States,
by either the commission or any person
interested. The court is authorized in
such cases to grant a temporary injuDc-
tioR, and is required to hear and determine
the matter as speedily as possible, giving
IL priority over other business of the court.
An appeal to the United States supreme
court is also provided for. A new section
is proposed to the interstate commerce act
