THE GREAT STRIKE.
Examination of Witnesses by the In
vestiRating Commission.


vestigating Commission.
Chicago, Ill, Aug. IL The strike com
MISSIONS investigations to-day developed
an enthusiastic disciple of Bellamy in the
person of Roy w. Goodwin, director Of
tht American Railway Union. Goodwin,
after long examination regarding the
recent strike, declared that such troubles
could be avoided by Matchmaking rail-
roads and all other extensive corportions
and industries. He declared he was
''Bellamyite," and believed that the
United States should be conducted after
the manner laid down by the author of
Looking Backward"
Prof. +. w. Bemis, associate professor
of political economy in. Chicago Univer-
sity, was also witness. He advocated,
as strike preventive, natiOnaland per-
manent board of arbitration. Prof
Bemis cited the Massachusetts, board Of
arbitration as an evidence of the good
effect that such an organization would
have, but said that national arbitration
board should have wider scope and be
endowed with greater powers than the
Massachusetts board. Prof. Bemis said he
had studied the great railroad strike
and the causes, and he was very closely
questioned by the commissioners. A num-
ber Of railroad employees were examined,
all of whom testified to having applied
for work in different parts of the country
since the strike only to discover that
they had been blacklisted because of
the part they had taken in the boycott
affair
A noticeable feature of the strike in
vestigaton, which is being conducted in
the absence of the representatives of the
railroads or employers, is that the
audience which gathers is Just large
enough to fill every seat in the rear of the
room, but is composed OF labor represent
atiVes and their friends
