Chicago arrived on the Monon and the en-
gine was attached to the belated passenger:
The engineer is yet loyal TO the road ana
made no demur to the order to go az once.
At 1850 in the morning the Monon ON
cials were thwarted in their effort TO SEND
out train No. 80. The train carried no sleep,
ers, but the coaches were we'll filled, and
when it was learned that the cars were 10
be tied up an avalanche of indignation was
show cred upon the defenseless shoulders
of conductor Horn. 1t was not known untll
u:40 that the train was to be held. Engln-
eer Edmunson steamed down to the l. T.. *
w. yards for fuel and water at III o CLOCK
where he found fireman Brooks in an
alarming state of rebellion. Brooks avowed
that he would not feed the fiery mouth or
the monster mogui. Threats and persuasion
We're alike impotent and the yardmaster
stirred himself TO find another Stoker. lie
succeeded, but the sight of the new man
threw engineer Edmonson into state or
mutiny. He informed the officials that the
ethics of his order prevented him from oc-
cupylng the same engine cab with man
who was not of the guild and he would be
compelled to keep his engine in the yards.
Efforts to find fireman who would con-
form with the engineers eXactionS were
fruitless and the officials decided to annul
the train. Just why fireman Brooks re-
fused to go out with his engine the officials
of the road claim ignorance 1t is reported
that the company had discharged engineer
Lamphier, and that this act had aroused
the fraternal sentiments of Brooks. Among
te-up was Deputy United states
Marshal Stewart. The deputy was
whole pocketful of restraining orders which
he was going TO serve upon Debs's insur-
rectionists at Monon: Judge Fields wired
Monon needed dose of the Attorney-gen-
erals prescription for boycotters, and the
deputy was en- route to administer it, His
Inability to get out of the city scored a
temporary triumph for the strikers, for the
injunction Will not reach them until this
evening.
The St. Louis train of the Big Four,
scheduled to leave the Union Station at
11:5o, was delayed an hour yesterday morn
ing. "A few minutes before engineer Strick-
land left the round house with his engine,
the fireman announced that he would not
make the trip. The engine was brought
into the station and Superintendent of Mo-
tive Power Garstang boarded the cab with
the intention of firing tho engine himself.
A minute or two before the train left, round
house Foreman Bell came up and noting
the situation said: MIR. Garstang, L am
better able to fire this engine than you
and l will make this trip" The superin-
tendent was relieved of a task that would,
doubtless, have grown irksome before it
was over. Members of the American Rail
way Union claim that Foreman Bell only
accompanied the engine to the Belt and
gave way to a nonunion man. Trains on
the other lines departed without material
deviation from the regular schedule. Train
No. is, of the St. Louis division of the Big
Four. arrived at the Union Station at 6:15
o'clock yesterday morning. 1t should have
arrived at 2:50 o'clock Tuesday, but was
tied up at Mattoon, ILL.,, by strikers. The
train came in here yesterday bearing a
corpse consigned TO one or the New York
roads. The strikers claimed that they al
| lowed the train to depart from Nation at
the solicitation of the funeral party, which
| occupied one of the coaches. The Vandala,
| from ST. Louis, arrived at 2:55 o'clock in
| the afternoon, on time. At o'clock the
New York limited steamed in on the Pan
| handle carrying three Pullman sleepers and
left half hour later without Interference
| The j., NJ. * l. came in from Chicago over
| the Panhandle tracks, three hours late.
During the day there but arrival
| over the St Louis division of the Big Four.
| althC ugh many passengers patiently waited
in hopes that matters would be bettered by
even ng. Officials about the station de-
| clared that the situation looked brighter
| yesterday than at any time since the
strike.
