Both Sides Seem to be Awaiting
Developments.
TROOPS READY TO MOVE.
MAY BE SENT TO OGDEN AT ANY
TIME.
The Usual Meeting of the Strikers
Held Yesterday Afternoon-Both
Roads Are Tied Up Tighter Than
Ever-A Decisive Move on the Ia
pis.

terday so far as relating to this lmn1e-
date section.
The same graveyard stiffness perme-
ated the atmosphere in and about the
yards as had reigned for the preceding
forty-eight hours, and it looks as
though both sides in the great contest
had settled down to await new moves
that are on the taps. Both the Union
Pacific and Rio Grande Western shops
are quiet, and it may be said there is
practically no work going on in there.
About the r. G. W. shops the belts
and pulleys are in motion, but the
Iaths and drill presses are not in active
service save now and then when
solitary workmen takes hold and turns
out some work absolutely necessary.
Yesterday it was observed that the
men did not congregate to any notice
able extent in and about the yards,
though the number Of regular police
about was less than usual. The same
number of deputies, however" patrol
the Rio Grande Western yards. The
Union Pacific yards are not visited so
much by the men as are the other
yards, and the men continue to go
through them without any protest
from the company.
On the Western, between Castle Gate
and Grand Junction, there was not
wheel turned-the desert end is tied
fast enough. They yesterday ran
stub No. , out of town, and likewise.
a No. / of the same order in, which

run out of Ogden last evening, nor was
there any No. 8 in from the East.

Junction this morning, though there

by running a No. ,, starting from this
point this morning.
The .Salina and Eureka runs were
made both ways yesterday as usual.
There was also an extra" freight east
from here to Castle Gate in the after
noon. and the regular freight No. p
came in from Castle Gate.
On the Union Pacific not a wheel was
turning last night on the Utah div
sions, though the local passenger trains
south were in and out on time. No
runs as far as Hooper, the first station
this side Of Ogden and turned back
from there as No 8. This was done to
protect as far as possible the local
travel between those points. 1t is pos
Sible that the same run will be repeat
ed today, but there is nothing definite
on that score.

and the dispatchers' keys on both
roads gave forth but spasmodic clicks
on company kilograms.
a. R. Z. MEETING.
The regular everyday meeting of the
A. r [. was called to order at 8 O'Clock
yesterday at Armstrong; hall. and
routine work proceeded with.
The following telegrams were re-
ceived and read:

Grand Junction, July 5, 1894

COMMITTEE.
Some other important kilograms had
been received, but the master of the
Ffremen's lodge, who left for Helper
yesterday, had taken them over there
with him, and he had forgotten in his
hurry to leave copies Of them.
w. r. Holling. the machinist men
toned in yesterdays Herald, was pres
ent, and addressed the meeting in an
able manner, and gave some advice G..
sending out committees to talk to men.
When the last committee waited upen
him, and officially explained matters.
he had quit then and there. and would
heDceforth stand in line Nth the move
ment to a finish. The men in the hail
cheered him, and considered the whole
matter as cleared up in the gentleman's
favor
Some fremen who had gene to work
during the trouble came forward and
pledged themselves as willing to stand
by the union-they were out to stay.
A labor committee called, among
them "ColCnel' Boyle, pledging their
support. They We're allowed seats in
the meeting. Colonel Boyle was al
lowed the floor, and in his speech he
roasted the mayor, city officials, ana
the government. His views in that line
didn't meet with the approval of the
A. R. o., but he was permitted to go
on until he waXed warmer and advo-
Gated force. He advised them to go
down and take men off the engines if
they wouldn't come off of their own
accord. AT this point the chairman
called" him. He kindly but plainly
told him that '.he must not talk i'm
that strain-no force had nor would be
resorted to. The struggle was being
waged on it's merits alone"
Then the colonel came down and
apoiogized. He wouldn't get so terribly
earnest any more in his speech.
The Herald will furnish the a R. u.
headquarters with a dozen copies, free I
every day while the strike is in prog
ress, and when so announced a vote of
thanks was rendered to this paper. The
carrier viii deliver them.
1t was reported to the meeting that
come persons were selling white rib
bon about town and claiming it was
for the benefit of the strikers. SUCH
persons have no authority TO do so, and
q committee was at once dispatched ito
hunt them up and take steps TO sum
press such action.
The question was presented to an
point a committee to solicit laid in main
tanning the boycott movement but it
was voted down, as no assistance is yet
needed, and the men incline to the be-
lief that none will be needed When it
is due notice will be given through the
press, and it will be done in a manner
that will preclude jmpostors from get
ting IN their work, as is too frequently
the case in such instances. The public
is thus warned against anyone claiming
the right 10 solicit aid or favors in any
way
DR.. Hasbruck was present and spoke
at length as to the movement. He as
sured them Of his deep sympathy, and
