It's Western Division Now Tied
Up by Strike.
Federal Troops Ordered Out at
Trinidad, Col.
TRANSFERS STOPPED.
No Transferring il Being Done
in Chicago.

CHICAGO, ILL., July z.-Business in
Chicago is seriously paralyzed as the
result of the present labor difficulties
Transfer business via Chicago is en-
tirely blocked by the so-ca1led Amer
lean Railway union. This business Is
freight exchange between all Eastern
and Western roads cen tering in Chi
cage, and so long as the Belt railway
is tied up, the Interstate business be-
tween Eastern and Western lines can
not be moved. 1t is absolutely neces-
sary that this channel Of interchange
of Interstate business should be kept
open, otherwise the roads that use it
for their transfer must con tinue to be
paraIvzed. The situation is summed
up as follows:
Panhandle-At about 3 O'Clock yes
terday afternoon q gang Of thirty
strikers broke into the Panhandle
switch tower at West Pullman and
with threats and abusive epithets
chased the telegraph operator out of
it with threats against his life if he
ever returned. A mob of 800 men is
gathered at Riverdale with the
avowed intention Of making an as
sault on train No. Fl, carrying mail
and Pullman slee per and dining car.
This is the same fast train from the
East which the rioters stopped Satur-
day and sacked the dining cars

NO Improvement Ia ths southern Pacific


Situation.
SAN FRScrsco, July 2.-There seems
to be no improvement in the strike
situation, and judging by the occur
rences of tae past twenfy-fo hours,
even if the Southern Pacific succeeds
in sending out more trains from the
Oakland yards there is but little
prospect that they will proceed far on
their way. The Oregon express,
which left Oakland last evening I'M
molested by strikers, is now effectuaI-
" stalled at Red Bluff. and to make
the situation worse. over 200 feet OF
their trestle a few miles north of
Dunsnuir was burned. and it will
take several DAYS to repair this dam
age before trains can pass between
here and Portland.
