teRtIOn TO hinder the carriage oil mails.
MR.. DEBs ENCOURAGED.
"rhe situation grows more encourag-
ing each day. There have been no out
breaks thus far and we shall do our best
to prevent one. As to the intention Of
the railroads to import men, | will say
that all they can produce will be only a
drop in the bucket. There are too many
skilled hands out to fill their places so
as to give them even half chance to
run traine. Anyway, the American sem
timent is too strong against men to take
strikers positions to permit very large
body OF workmen to act az substitutes at
this time"

STOCK YARDS CARS BoYCoTTED.
The packers at the stock yards tried
10 induce the strikers to take eight train

ing houses. The packers say they will
be afraid to send perishable freight out
of the yards while the strike continues
for fear it will become tied up on the
-osd where it will spoil. ASS result the
business of the stock yards will be tied
up, whether the employees In the yard
