PULLMAN, Ills, Aug. Is White ribbons
have disappeared from Pullman and its
vicinity. The big strike is now definitely
over and all that remains to be done is to
clean up the scraps. The talk OF eviction,
which was given such wide publicity in
the newspapers, had a stirring effect on
the fellows out of work. and rather than
face starvation in the open air the men
gave up the fight and returned with IA
rush To the shops. 1t is generally under
stood that the company will take back ali
of its old men with the exception ot about
one hundred who were IA little too active
in the strike and especially in their de-
nunciation of George Pullman and the
methods of his company.

BOYCOTT ON BEER.
by This Method Railway Strikers Hope to
Win Victory.

Win victory.
CHICAGO. Aug 15.-By boycotting Mil
waukee and Waukesha beers members of
the American Railway union who lost
their positions on the Chicago, Milwaukee
and ST. Paul and the Chicago and North
western roads during the recent strike
hope to regain them. To this end boy
colt was declared at meeting held in
Baer's hall, Milwaukee and Chicago
avenues. Every American Rail way union
lodge in the country, together with those
of all other unions, will be asked to spread
the boycott and to aid in bringing the
roads to listen to the views of the ex-em-
ployes.
These men reason that Milwaukee
breweries furnish an enormous proportion
of the beer consumed in the country and
that the railroads derive large revenue
in hauling it. Both the Chicago, Milwau-
kee and st. Paul and the Chicago and
Northwestern take millions Of dollars out
of milwaukee, yearly in the shape of
freight charges on beer. Each road
builds and maintains on its properties
beer warehouses without costs to the
breweries. The boycott, if successful,
Will cut off the market of the brewers
for their output and will decrease the
freight revenues of each load. A com
mittee was appointed to visit st. Louis,
Kansas City, Omaha, and other points
where these beers ara sold to urge the
spread of the boycott.

tion is to reduce the operating expenses
and to enable the operators to mike terms
with their men, who have been on n strike
since February for n differential rate of Is
cents ton more than is paid in other dis.
tricts.
The operators have adopted new sched-
ule of wages based on the 60-cent rate
adopted by the Columbus convention 1t
is proposed to cheaper the cost of miners

LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. l5.-Experts be-
fore the coroner's jury investigating the
Rock Island wreck testified that it would
have been impossible for the expansion
of the rails by heat to have deranged the
track rs it was found; also that the burrs
and plates had been removed cautiously
and not rs if by a violent wrenching; also
that it WIS almost impossible for one man
unaided to have torn up the track in SO
short time as it was done.
The colored suspect now refuses to talk,
but maintains his innocence A plausible
explanation has at last been found why he
should have removed the rails II is that
he thought to do this and then rush ont
and flag the train, and by that means get
a reward or job. This idea is borne out
by the fact that he had lantern when
first seen and that he stated to Farmer
SaNton that he wanted a job for a few
days only, and that he was soon to have a
good one. The report that several other
persons. unidentified. perished in the
