EXCELLENT RESULTS.
Presidents Proclamation and
Gen. Miles Order, Chairman
Egan's Statement.

CHICAGO, July 9.-Chairman John NJ.
Egan, of the Association of RailwayGen-
eral Managers, when asked tonight by
the Associated Press for au official
statement of the condition of the roads
represented i'll that association, said:
with the exception Of two OF three
minor instances there has been no
trouble or disturbance reported today
All the lines have run their regular
through passenger and mail trains, and
a-number of the lines resumed their
suburban trains. All of the lines COM
menced work in their freight yards.
and many freight trains were run in
and out of the city. The Union Stock
yards company are clearing their
tracks Of wreekage and repairing dam
age done during the past week. They
expect to commence operation tomorrow
(Tuesday) morning. The total number of
trains moved today are equal to the
total number moved during the past
four days. 1t is true that trains have
been guarded to prevent their being
moleSted, but the action of the military
towards the mobS and rioters during the
past two days has had most Salutary
effect. The presidents proclamation,
together with Gen. Miles orders, have
produced excellent results. All the
lines of railway expect to show far bet
ter results tomorrow. The men who
have replaced the strikers are good,
practical men, and are satisfactory to
the lines that have employed them.

AS TO FAIR PLAY.

1t has been the stock in trade of the
\. Il. L. that the papers are unfair, and
that their side is excluded from the pub
lie.
This is just about as true as the hypo-
critical pretense that they c0untenance
mo violence"
In the first pace, almost all of the A.
Il. u. meetings are secret, from which
reporters are excluded, and not lnfre-
quently when GLOBE reporters have
danced attendance on the outside until
midnight they have been refused any
information as to their proceedings. Z.
Last Friday committee of the A. Il.
|. waited upon the GLOBE to ask if
they could have a hearing in this paper.
They were promptly informed that
such hearing would be cheerfully given,
without money and without price, and
left with the statement that they would
supply their side of the case for publi-
cation. Monday or Tuesday morning.
No such document has yet been Of
fered the GLOBE, but the typographical
union was called to meet on Sunday to
aid the a. K. U. in getting their case be-
fore the public, and considerable sum
$3.50 is repOrted) was voted to be used
in printing some document for general
circulation.
This is all we'll enough in its way,
but if the A. II. U. was really honest in
its desire to reach the public would it
not use the daily papers, as far as they
go, for such purpose.
The fact is they know and feel they
have no case to present.
They claim that Pullman oppressed
his wor6mep.
Every one believes he did and no one
disputes it.
But when it comes to sustaining those
who. having left their positions out of
sympathy and by intimidation and VIC
lence, seek to prevent others working,
who need and desire means to support
their families, they have no valid de-
Tense.
The cry that they cannot secure fair
play in the newspapers is false, and
they know it.
The GLOBE is a newspaper, and
publishes all the news 1t can obtain on
ooth sides OF every important public
question, reSerying the right to eriiicise
and express its own opinion.
The A. Il. L. have no just defense for
the sacrifice Of lives and property, for
the impOveriShing of the laboring
classes, for the prevention of men from
earning their daily bread, and they
hypocritically claim they can get no
hearing while they refuse to accept the
hearing they requested.
Because a newspaper favors law and
order. and recognizes the inalienable
right of every man 10 earn his liveli-
hood in such Legitimate manner as may
be offered. it does not make it an enemy
of labor.
Labor is being stabbed 10 death in the
house of its pretended friends-false
friends who are its own worst enemy.

Grand Army and Confederate Vet
Grams Offer Their Services.

WASHINGTON. July AT abeut f IL
O'Clock word came from Gen. Miles that
everything was quiet at Chicago and
that nothing more would come from
him tonight. A telegram was received
by the president from Mayor Hopkins
stating that the newspaper reports that
he was displeased by the proclamation
Issued last light were untrue. After
receiving the telegram from Gen. Miles,
the conference broke up. Gen. Scho-
field stated that no new orders had been
sent to Gen. Miles today. He SAID that
the situation seemed to be better than
at any time since the cOmmencement,o Of
the trouble. Commenting upon the
proclamations issued by the president,
Gen. Schotield said that they did not in
any way affect the authority Of state or
federal officers, but were merely in the
nature of warnings to the people. This
warning was necessary and proper I'M
der the law. but WAS not tantamount
to a declaration Of msrtial law. Under
martial law the authority of state Off
Gals would be supported by the federal
authority. Gen. Schofield SAID that he
did not believe that the published in
terview with Gen. Miles i'll which he is
credited with saying that the proclama.
ton practically amounted to declara-
ton of martial law was authentic. He
was inclined to think that Gen. Miles
was credited with saying good many
things that he did not say.
Large numbers of kilograms have
