the Railroads.
CHICAGO, July 2. 2.-Operations against
the strikers began today with confer
ence Detweek United States Judges
Woods ard Grosscup, Edwin Walker,
special solicitor appointed yesterday by
Attorney General Olney and District
Attorney Milchrist. The lawyers had a
bulky, type written bill asking the
federal courts TO enjoin the strikers
from interfering with the mails. The
bill was az omnibus document covering
all the roads. 1t was submitted to the
judges informally before it was filed,
and discussion of Its frame and prayer
occupied the court and lawyers for
some time.
Later Walker and Milchrist, acting un-
der instructions from Attorney General
Olney, filed bill In the federal court to
enjoin the strikers from interfering
with the trains. The bill was originally
drawn to enjoin the strikers from inter-
ferlng with the mails. but modified un-
der orders from Washington so as to en-
join from interfering Oh any trains, this
protection being extended on account
Oft interstate commerce act. 1t is be-
lieved that the injunction issued under
the bill will stop the strike, for the
whole power of the government can be
called upon to enforce 1T. Judge Woods
said the marshal will be expected to
enforce the order, and ii he Is unable
to do so, the troops of the United States
can be called for.
ut is not necessary, "said he, "to issue
an injunction to prevent interference
with the mails, for such Interference is
in itself crime for which the guilty
party can be arrested and indicted. 1t
is more necessary to issue restrainin G
order to prevent nterference with in
terstate commerce. The only reason
for issuing All order at all is that it is a
means of meeting the present emer-
gency, for the process of arrest and in
dictment is slow"
AS to the territory covered by the
order. the judges said it applied to the
state of Illinois, the seat of the trouble,
and can be entered in the courts of In
diana and Wisconsin, and thus be made
to apply in those states. The man ar
rested for any violation of the injunc-
ton will be brought before the court
for contempt, and can be punished SUM-
marily with imprisonment if the court
so desires.
The injunction order of the federal
court names twenty-three roads, all
within the membership of the railway
association, and the Union Stockyards
and Transit company. which must not be
interfered with. All the members Of
the A. r. o., and all other persons
whatsoever, are ordered to refrain from
interfering with trains, freight or pas
senger. The men are also ordered not
to enter the yards or premises of the
coin panfes with intent to do any un-
lawful aets,- or to compel by threats,
violence, or any other means. the en-
ploye6 of the roads to quit work. The
order also enjoins the defendants from
inducing by persuasion, threats, vio-
lence, or by any other means, the EN-
ployes OF the companies to leave the
service of the companies or to induce
them to refuse to perform their duties."

DEPUTY MARSHAL STABBED.
Strikers Curse and Defy the
United States.

BLUE ISLAND, ILL.,, July a. The pres
ent outlook at Blue Island is not the
most prosperous for law and order.
There is a very turbulent element
among the strikers, especially among
their sympathizers, 1000 of whom are
employed in the different brick
yards at Blue Island. These men are
off for the Fourth of July, and it is
this element that is most feared. This
morning train having OH board hun.
dred deputy United States marshals,
commanded by United States Marshal
Arnold, came into the yards and was
stopped by the strikers. A small riot
followed, in which guns and knives
we're drawn, and general knock down
fight occurred. Deputy United States
Marshal John Logan WAS stabbed in
the left side with a dirk. Master
Mechanic FitZgibboDs was hit in the
head with stone, and other deputy
marshals were stoned and kicked. Two
Blue Island police were put upder ar
fest for trying to arrest deputy mar
ehals. Nothing further occurred of In.
terest until this evening, when train
arrived bearing Assistant District
Attorney Matther and forty deputies.

into the shed and finally left with It's
usual complement OF Gals, including q
sleeper. The fast mail and limited
trains of that line got away on time.
When O'Clock arrived an extra de-
tall OF regular police officers arrived
and marched up the track towards the
railroad bridge. where they took posi-
ton ON both sides of the track. The
rev strikers gathered about were
cleared out of the yards by order of tue
superintendents, and the line was clear
when the trains commenced to arrive.
The Omaha limited, fully guarded by
deputies, left nearly on time. The
Great Western lines Chicago train was
but fifteen minutes late. and the Bur-
hngton's fast train was the last TO get
out, leaving at $40.
DASTARDLY ATTEMPT.
When the Omaha's train for the West
pulled out and was slowly passing the
fence at the foot Of Sibey street, In
order TO allow the conductor to set the
switches, fellow jumped OH one Of the
coach platforms on which the head
brakeman of the train was standing,
clothes and had a red handkerchief
about his neck. He made a grab for
the brakeman, attempting to pull him
OIL the car. But he did not succeed,
Inc brakeman grappled with his ad-
Versary and got him by the throat. He
tried to throw him off the train, but did
not succeed. A [ that moment the train
gathered speed, and the police officers
stationed there could not render auy as.
slstance. But it was plainly visible that
the brakeman was getting the best Of
his man, holding him tightly around
the throat and evidently waiting for as
slstance. The fellow was carried away
with the train, and his ultimate disposi.
tlon could not be ascertained.
HANDLING FREIGHT. g.
Trainmaster a. L. Phillips, Of the
Great Western line, stated to a GLOBE
reporter last night that a switch engine
had been at work since o'clock yester.
day morning delivering meat and other
perishaDle freight at West st. Paul and
in the city. One of the switching crews
at West ST. Paul. while delivering a car
at the James King Packing company's
place. got car off the track through
the fact that rock had been wedged
into the frog of the switch. The matter
was soon righted. and proved the only
incident of note during the day.
IralnmaSter Phillips stated also that
the people OF South aud West st. Paul
had formed a thorough organization;
had appointed twenty deputies, and
were determined to see that the service
at these points would not be interfered
with. II is their intention to protect
public interests and to prevent public
suffering.
The regular motor service of the
Great Western will be resumed today.

Plenty OF New Men Anxious to

supplied with men, and no trouble is
reported with the operators. 1t was

the operators OH the Dubuque division
who are out will be supplanted. Atthe
same hour today the company will

vacanc les, and will operate its trains-It
possible On Sunday night three em-
ployes-two agents and one operator in
the st. Paul division, who went out
with the general movement, applied to
be reinstated. The southwest portion

very fair condition. The company Is
being almost flooded with applications
for vacancies. These are pouring in at
Kansas City, Des Moines, Chicago, st.

''Our No. from st. Paul to Chicago
did not go out today. We had no lack

CHICAGO, July 2.-Business will be

or not. The pens are almost entirely
empty. The cars loaded with dressed
beef are standing OH the tracks, and the
beef Is in danger of spelling, and ice-
making machinery must soon stop run
Mug owing to lack of coal. There are
400 cars of live stock on the Burlington

The ice companies in the city are
