CHICAGO July 1o-Slowly. but steadily,
calmly ana certainly, IA behis the supreme
,ower OF . great nation. throughout all
,haf wide stretch OF its domain where
eyil-Qisposcd persons are taking advantage
of an exceptional industrial condition TO
incitr violence ard bloodshod. the Fede-
raj Government IS working 20 the ac-
cofnplshmeut Of that for which the power
was delegated 10 1.-THE preservation OF
order. and the safety Of life and property.
Al Chicago. in conjunction with the state
cri the municipality. it has already
brought peace out Of the condition OF
var which prevailed last week. At San
Fmuoisco. sacramento, Los Angeles and
various points in Colorado and Washing
ton where the unruly are creating havoc
i has let loose the dogs Of war in token
o. Ns intention 20 have peace. even If 1t
has go nSht for it.
In This clty. the military army having
accomplished its purpose. the judicial army
to-day took up the orderly course Of It's
dudes. which include the fixing upon the
lUy parties Of the measure OF their
crime and the hitting Of the punishments
thereto. The first step In this procedure
Was the assembling Of the Federal grand
jury 9ud the delivery Of q charge TO II
O.. Judge GrOsscup not TO be turned aside
from au exhaustive inquiry into the ques-
r.rs which il las undertaken 10 pass
uDoa by mere techricanues. The et-
f..tiv.uese Of the charge was
,,uceI at the outset by the brusqueness
with which 10 swept aside the plea OF
lrNilege and privacy which the Western
Iuiou Telegraph Company, with due
f.glrl for the privacy OK the messages
~ rs clients was forced 10 put in when
t-c Jury called for the messages from
President Debs 10 the members OF MS
order which had been transmitted over
r. lines The cgurt held that public
..f.ty was paramount to private right,
ana 80 ordered that the dispatches be
produced.
THAT the intention Of the government
7,s not 10 be- long about the work IN
inl was shown by the fact that the
footsteps Of the telegraph officials VINO
brought the dispatches had scarcely
ceased 10 echo along the corridor lead
INK 10 the grand jury room when that
loJv nleI into Judge Grossups court
,nl announced tina. IL had found true
hN oC Indictment. Pending the arrest
of the person thus put under the ban Of
Jaw. his name remained locked in the
breast Of the Lord High EXecutioner
end the puh,lc was allowed 10 draw It's
own conclusions from all the premises
and such preliminary data as IL had AT
hand That President Debs Was the
mrn none doubted. and subsequent de-
velopments justified the surmise.
THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE.
Touching the outlook for the future
outside Of Chicago it may be said that
tl-iay's dispatches were almost uniform
ig tenor TO the effect that normal con
dltaus had already been restored or that
llry were rapidly approaching that state
aui there seems 70 reason 10 suppose
trat the progress tow lrd a complete re-
sumption % trade and traffic will meet
with any soriols check as the coming
daVs shall succeed each other. IN other
words. it does not seem possible, 'with all
the forces Of law and ordsr as now ar
r4ved with its leader put 10 his own de-
fence at the lar Of justice. with its
ranks beginning 10 be depleted by de-
s.rtions. and with the strain which they
f4ys already endured, that the American
Railway Union can rally ITS forces for
struggle which must needs be long anu
G.scouraging AT the least Apparently.
therefore. its only hope lies I'm the aid
which IL hopes 20 get from union labor
outside OF It's own organization. As this
Is being written the order for all classes
~ labor IN Chicago to 10 on strike to-
morrow is being pr0mulgated and il is OK
pected that that ol Gran Master Work

who sympathize with the Pullman
strikers an over the country TO come out
v-h them Will follow quickly.
How generally these orders Will he

f,Q oil
counted hy the stagnation Of business
and DO is known that some OF the longest
headed llbor-lcaders believe that action

so sunset tomorrow this nation WI
probably know we'll whether the situa-
t..a is one Of crisis or a collapse.
