IL ~. Ret1ahd9f, Boston: John j. Cook,
Boston; Joseph L. Wilson, Chicago, Re-
cet0erS Of the 44tchfson, Topeka and Santa
Fe Railroad Company; The men in the
employ of the receivers OF the Atchison
Hallway system must discharge all their
usual and accustomed duties or, quit the
service OF the receivers altogether, and
permit other men to take their places
who will discharge their duties. Any or
all the employees can quit the service of
the company If they so choose. But
when they quit they must not interfere
in any manner with the property or the
operation of the road or men employed
to take their places. Any such interfer-
ence Will be promptly dealt with as a
contempt OF court. The men who wish
to continue in the service of the court
must discharge all the duties appro-
priately and properly belonging To the
service. A refusal to perform any part of
the said duty will compel their discharge
and the employment OF other men TO
take their places. All The power and au-
thority of the court Will be vigorously
exercised to inforce these reasonable re-
suits.
Il cannot believe the boycott order was
intended to be put i'll operation on road
in the custody of the United States and
operated by receivers appointed by the
court. But if such is the case the authors
OF the boycott order and the men 10
whom it is addressed must understand
that the court will not tolerate any inter-
terence with the operation OF the road by
their receivers from any cause whatever.
The men must understand that they can
not remain in the service OF the railroads
and refuse to perform any duty pertain
ing to that road. They must make their
selection whether they will take their or
der as tothe cars TO be switched from Debs
or the court. They must understand dis
tinctly that they are no longer in the
service for any purpose, and that other
men will be employed TO take their
places permanently, and will be guarded
and protected in the discharge of their
duties.
when the situation of our road and
the law applicable to this case lsi under
stood, / do not believe there wIu be any
attempt to put the boycott order in force
upon it. Any effort To 10 SO will be in
direct contempt Of the court, and must
inevitably result disastrously to the men.
AS soon as | learn that it is the deliber-
ate purpose of those ordering the boycott
to attempt 10 enforce il against the au-
thority of the court, will proceed to To-
peka and deal with the matter on the lines
indicated in this dispatch.

and the Eastern Washington militia
companies en- route TO encampment at

OF the American Railway Union and 100

ern Pacific trains through from Tacoma
to st. Paul. They said the union men at
Helena at other points had made mis-
take in striking, and that since the North
ern owned half interest in its Pullman
cars, the strikers were simply hurting
their own road and cutting of their own
employment. A heated discussion en-
sued, the telegraphers favoring the strike.
They were voted down, and the engi-
neers' proposition carried. The engi-
neers hope by their loyalty to have the
wage schedule raised to the old standard.
