NOT REGARDED AS SERIOUS.
The stock yards strike spread during
the morning to about 800 more men. They
were employed as meat cutters, rousta
bouts and general laborers The move
ment was not concerted many de-
partments the strike we felt, while
in others no one was a .rk. Slaugh
tering is being done at all the houses and
packers said the strike would only
amount to temporary inconvenience.

stock offered and killing and shipping as
fast as possible. For every butcher on a

AFTER THE GENERAL MANAGERS.
Ohicago.-It is reported that when the
general grand jury concludes it's investi-
CATION of the A. R. U. it will begin an in
quiry into the policy ofthe General Mana
gers association. Among the leaders of
the workingmen the charge has been
made openly and repeatedly that the OBJ
struction of United States mails and in
terruption of interstate commerce was
due quite as much to the general mana
gers as to the A. R. U. 1t has been alleged
that the managers agreed that no trains
should be run on any roads until all
gained their points in the dispute with
the men. This was done, it is charged, to
hold back such companies as showed an
inclination to treat with the employees
and bring about resumption of traffic
on their lines. 1t is asserted by the mon
that they can prove that kilograms we're
sent out from the General Managers as
sociation ordering certain lines to send
out no train till the designated scheme
had been accomplished. All this the men
insist Is as clear case of conspiracy on
the part of the general managers, as it is
with Debs and his associates. Judge
Grosscup and Milchrist said that Justice
would be meted out impartlally to all vio-
lators of the federal statutes.
DECIDED NOT TO STRIKE.
Toledo, Ohio.-The Michigan Central
yardmen who we're OK pectetl to strike this
morning determined not to do SO and are
all at work.
RESUMED WORK.
Toledo, Ohio.-The striking Wabash
switchmen held meeting this morning,
abandoned the strike and returned to
work. This action opens the blockade
on that road, as this is the last point at
which the men are out.
DESPERATE AsHTADULA sTIKERs.
Ashtabula, Ohio.-Work was commenced
at all the ore and coal docks on the Penn
sylvanla railroad side of the river here
this m morning, but had not been in progress
half an hour before mob of 600 strikers
from the Lake Shore side, who had de-
cided not to return to work, marched on
the docks and by threats compelled the
men at work to cease their labors. Picks,
shovels and tools of every kind were
thrown into river and riot was only
avoided by the Pennsylvania men leaving
the boats. Not stroke of work is now
being done on any of the docks and
prospects of resumption are farther of
than at any time since the strike was in
augurated.
STRIKING ORE sHOvELERs.
Asthabula Harbor, Ohio.-An army of
1000 striking ore shovelers left this port
at 1890 to-day to march to Conneaut,
fifteen miles distant, to compel ore shov
elers there to come out. From Conneaut
they proceed to Erie and stop work on the
docks there. The mob is composed of
Fins, Swedes, Italians and Huns, many of
whom are armed and if the dock laborers
refuse to quit work there will be trouble.
ALL TRAINS MOVING AT ST. LOUIS.
St. Lcuis.-With the railroads handling
all business offered with the usual prompt
ness, interest in the strike has almost dis
appeared. All trains, both passenger
and freight, are running without inter-
ruption and handling easily all business.
MOB AT OAKLAND.
San Francisco.-At o'clock this morn
ing the situation in northern California
presented no new features. No trains are
running at Oakland or Sacramento. The
strikers continued unruly during the
night. Early this morning the round
house at Oakland Mole was raided and
several locomotives damaged and ma
chinery put out of condition. There was
no serious outbreak however.
THING OF THE PAST.
Cleveland, Ohio.-There was perfect
stampede to-day among the striking rail-
way employees to 60 back to work and
the big strike so far as this city is con-
cerned is thing of the past.
