CHICAGO. July lin Chicago and
vicinity the day was spent by the two con-
tending forces in the great railway strike
in playing waiting game. each side mar
rowiy watching for the other to move.
The railway officials profess to ba
sanguine of the ultimate defeat of the
strikers. and the latter are equally certain
of final success. At number OF vantage
points throughout the city efforts were
made to move freight trans. which were
promptly frustrated by strikers and their
sympafhixers. who pouneed upon the
trains, carried off the links and pins, set
the brakes and chased away the
men thus engaged. retiring whenever
a superior force Of police appeared on
the scene. Barring \ few minor scrim-
images. in which no damage was done, the
day was fairly quiet Passenger traffic on
most of the roads was not seriously inter-
fered with where Pullman cars we're not
handled. except at Blue island. where the
Rock Island trains are still held,
both sides remaining stubborn and
the iong-suffering passengers bearing
the brunt of the discomfort aud delay.
One hundred deputy marshals will 30 to
Blue island early in the morning. Alto
gether no decided advantage can be
claimed for either side. but owing 10 re-
ports that the sheriff has called on the
governor for troops, tomorrow's develop
ments are awaited with keen interest, il
not anxiety.
The troops at Fort Sherman are being
held in readiness to respond in moment
TO call for their services to protect prop
erty from the strikers.
1t Was learned this evening that George
NJ. Pullman had quietly left the city last
night, presumably for the East, although
ID is impossible to obtain definite iniorma-
ton as TO his destination.
Six persons today were given authority
TO tie up every Chicago industry. BY
resolution adopted by the trades and labor
assembly the members of the execu-
tive committee were given absolute
power to act in support of the American
Railway Uuion until the Pullman boycott
is settled. The executive board of six
members Is given absolute power to
act In its discretion. This action was
taken after long and heated dis
cussicn. 1t Is said the building
trades council will discuss the
advisability of taking similar action Mt a
meeting to be held tomorrow. Ii these
two organizations decide to order strike
more than one-tenth of the workmen of
Chicago will be idle in less than twenty
four hours.
A summary OF several thousand words
of dispatches received by the Posr-IsTKI~
IIGEscER from Chicago is that all the
roads are tied up about as they were SAT-
