quite a force of strikers here. All are
quiet. though union missionaries have
been active since the strike began, and
have made many additions to their num-
Der among the railroad employees here
during the past two days.
The town is short OF sugar already, and
much fruit viii be ready for shipment
shortly. Among the freight tied up here
are two carloads of California fresh fruits.
No mail has arrived from the south since
Wednesday,, and none from the north
since Friday.
An engine arrived this evening from
Grants Pass to take north the delayed
passenger train held here. Six Deputy
United States Marshals were guarding The
engine, and the Sheriff had also responded
to the call of the railroad officials Tor pro-
lection. The engine had not been in the
yard five minutes when it was disabled,
and there is little likelihood of the COM
pany being able to move the train to-
night. Three engines already in the
roundhouse here are rendered unit for
use until repairs are made, and this
makes the fourth one the strikers have
tampered with. Four Pullman cars on
the delayed trains are also disabled. The
strikers laugh at the efforts made TO move
the train.

very determined. Passenger train No.
arrived here from the east at 6:35 Friday
evening, with 100 passengers. When 1t
reached 1ruckee IL was permitted to go
no further, although the passengers
pleaded hard with the American Railway
Union to be allowed to go on. There is
corpse on the train, being taken to Los
Angeles for burial. A son of the woman
murdered at Jackson, Amador County,
last week is among the stalled passen-
gers. The American Railway Union
members raised enough money among
themselves to pay Tor the passengers
meals until yesterday evening. Last
night the American RailwaY Union gave
an entertainment for the benefit OF the
passengers, which netted $50. To-day the
railroad company is furnishing meal
tickets to destitute passengers. Several
OF the delayed passengers started over
the summit for Sacramento yesterday and
to-day.
The tracks here are filling with cars,
and among them are many that contain
fruit. As long as the ice holds out, and
there is enough to last about twelve days,
the fruit will be all right. The dining car
that was brought to Truckee on Thurs
day night is still here. Not even the yard
engine has been out since Friday noon.
An attempt was made early this morn
ing to burn the Truckee Lumber Com
pany's box factory and Sawmill. The fire
was discovered by employees before it was
we'll under headway, or it would have
been almost impossible to save the town
from destruction. The question of wages
between some of the employees and the
company is supposed TO be the cause OF
the incendiary act.

Los ANGELES, July 1.-At meeting of
the Order of Locomotive Engineers held
here to-day it was decided that all mem

all probability, result in breaking the
back bone OF the strike.

with mail for San Diego on the Santa Fe
this morning, and was to have been taken
out by Conductor Charles Heartt and En-
gineer Jenkins. Just before the engine
was coupled on Conductor Heartt went

succeeded In properly manning the train,
and it pulled out of here with one mail
car and three passenger coaches attached.

day TO bring in the passengers and mail
from Barstow arrived here this after
noon. a woe-begOne set of passengers,
among them number of ladies and chill
dren, got Oft the train. They were dusty
and travel-stained, and fully bore out the
statements made in kilograms that they
had undergone considerable hardship OH
the desert. One Los Angeles man said:
1.-The delay at Barstow was particularly
hard on the Pullman passengers amongst
whom were several invalids.. Some of the
passengers remained at Barstow, and did
not come i'll on this relief train, because
they were bound for San Francisco and
northern points, and did not want to
come this way. They were left at Bar
stow, and will take chances on getting
farther along. About sixty passengers
came down on this train. The train had
an uneventful run to Barstow and back,
no delays being experienced till on the
return trip, when there was slight wait
at San Bernardino."
