ST. PAUL, April 19.-The order for the
Great Northern employees to strike at
Minneapolis has been issued for O'Clock
this morning. That will mean that the
entire system will be tied up. unless a
running at once.
ST. PAUL, April 1S.-In the Circuit Court
of the United States for Minnesota and
North Dakota Judge Sanborn has issued
orders enjoining the strikers and others
from interfering with the business of the
Great Northern or its property. and United
States Marsbals we're sent out on tO-day's
trains with large forces of deputies to pre-
serve order.
The temporary restraining order calls
for hearing in this city on April q, at
which the leaders of the strike are to show
cause why they should not be permanent T.
ly restrained from disabling or rendering
in any way unfit for Immediate use any
property of the company used in inter
state commerce and in obstructing tie
opera ton of said railroad engaged in such
commerce or its telegraph system.
This restraining order was turned over
to deputies by the United States Mar
shall. anG they went out in force on two
trains to-day. These trains had an engine
at each end, so that even if the strikers
wished to interfere they would find some
difficulty in doing so.
fbe reports received in this city from
points along the line of the Great North
ern road are much of the same tenor.
The men are announcing their peaceable
intentions, and at the same time without
violence preventing the running of any
trains and making up of any new trains.
North Dakota points supplied with mails
and provisions over the Great Northern
are complaining vigorously over their iso-
lation.
At Wilmar the firemen surrendered their
charter in the brotherhood, and all Joined
the American Railway Union, and the
correspondents at that place add that the
engineers may follow in their footsteps.
1t is just the other way at Crookston,
where the men refuse to have snything to
do with the strike until ordered by their
brotherhood.
Three unsuccessful attempts were made
to start train at Moorbead. At Grand
Forks all was quiet to-day. The Spokane
strikers have patrol along the line at
that point which did double duty, and
while protecting the company's property
they watched their own interests. At
Seattle the strikers are In full control and
are very confident.
Chief Sargent of the frenen and Arthur
of the engineers were in conference for
some time with President Ril, Vice.
President Cling and General Manager
Case of the Great Northern. After the
conference the brotherhood chiefs would
say nothing. but reliable authority says
that Arthur and Sargent gave Hill to un-
derstand that he must fight the matter out
without their assistance; that they would
not help or oppose the strike, but would
leave 1t in full charge of the union.
ST. CLOUD. Minn., April 1S-The train
with United States deputies arrived this
evening and the injunction was served on
President Foster. The train is still here,
but will probably proceed. as the strikers
are waiting for more legal advice, and in
the meantime have not touched the train.
