 Some idea of what tho strike has meant to the Chicago railroads can be obi aimed whom the organization of the Pcnnsyivn- mia lines is noted. The company, inmc- diately after the declaring of the Pullman hnycOtt established headquarters in tho city under tho charge of a strike manager and proceeded with an organization war like and complete. COnmissariat of seven barracks was established, and for a week tho department has been feeding and lodg- ing l, 5U0 people. X force of l5O deputy marshals was organized, with officers. pa trol wagons and signal stations, and a | corps of engineers was put to work upon the details of tho damage done by the riot CTS.
 But despite this force of men, backed | by city, county, state and government troops the company has suffered n fearful loss of poperty. Up to Saturday night 667 of its freight cars had been burned, besides | many signal towers, oil and toolhouses and other property. Of the burned cars moro than 100 were loaded. about 90 with coal and cindcrs and the remainder with merchandise. No attempt at an accurate estimate of the damage has yet been made, but it will reach nn enormous figure De spite the danger incident upon travel dur ing tho strike, large numbers of people have daily gone out over the Pcnnsylya- mia
 Mayor Hopkins Cheerful.
 Il believe the crisis has been passed and | that thcrc will be no more serious trou- | blc, said Mayor Hopkins. Tho shooting l into the mob by statc troops Saturday aft | crnoon has shown the lawlcss element what it may expect if it persists in its out | brvaks against law and order. The thugs | and criminals who have been masquerad- | ing as striking workingmcn evidently be- l licvcd the soldiers would not fire on them. Now they know better. and they will. if | am not greatly mistaken, be more careful | in the future
 Mayor Hopkins received from Governor | Matthews uf Indiana dispatch authoriz- ing him to send Illinois state troops into the state of Indiana at Hammond when necessary. The mayor wired Governor Altgrld and received Il reply saying that as Hammond is practically part of Chi cago he may uso the Illinois state troops | in accordance with Governor Matthews permission, whenever necessary, for the | purpose of supprcssing lawlcssncss and re- storing order in Illinois.
 At the headquarters of the General Man agcrs' association it is frankly admitted l that not a fhlIfOltl III | 0DlClEO Is moving any trains except under n heavy military or police guard. Most of the roads are getting through limited number of pas scngcr trains, but the ticup of freight business is practically complete.
 Early this morning all was quiet at Hammond. although several groups of IT, otcrs made threatening demonstrations at different points about the city during last evening.
