Service.

The only thing absolutely new in the
strike situation in West Oakland yesterday
was the information that the company was
ready to settle with the men. 1t was con-
tanned in the telegram from Z. i. Douglass
OF Sacramento and displayed in a tobac-
conist's window on Seventh street, about
3 O'Clock in the afternoon.
Ia a short time the window was sur
rounded by strikers and the contents OF
the telegram eagerly scanned; and, as
the news spread there was general air Of
satisfaction at the news 1t contained. 1t
was good news, as the strikers construed
it, and they plainly saw before them the
path to q happy delivery, strewn with the
roses Of victory.
81 think we are now assured" said
President Roberts Of the A. +. O., 'Ot the
victory we have claimed all along.
The telegram means, Of course, that the
company is willing to meet us, which they
were not willing to do before. Previously
they have held the ground that they had
nothing to consider, holding that the light
was purely between the Pullman Company
and the Pullman employees In Chicago
and that if our men saw TT to leave the
service Of the Southern Pacific they could
fill their places with others.
Now, they have found that not only
not easy, but impossible, and they now
want to meet US to see If some settlement
cannot be made looking 10 the return of
our men to work.
THE anuuliing Of the trains means that
the company cannot run them. They
have about realized that they must get the
old men back before they can run the
trains with any safety to passengers or TO
the c0mpany's property. Therefore, they
have resolved to not run them until such
an arrangement is made that the old men
can be induced 10 return.
In regard to The terms upon which the
men Will consent to return to work l can
not speak, not having the authority. Ii

Did you see what some of the after
noon papers said caused to-dav's tie-up at
Sacramento ?" asked Charles Hall OF the

tighten you? Because TWO switchmen
were subpenaed from the yards the COM
