The Strike Leader Gets Little SYM
DatI1v in New York


NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-Eugene Y. Debs,
president of the American Railway Union,
addressed a large audience tonight at
Cooper Union. 1t was composed entirely
of laboriDg men, who greeted the speaker
enthusiastically. The meeting was held
under the auspices of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, and Edward King pre-
sided. Mr.. Debs reviewed at length the
history of the recent great railroad strikes
In the West. Speaking of strikes he said !:
IL am opposed TO the strike; but often
it is choice between strike and degra-
dation. Under such circums tances l am
in favor of the strike. The Pullman strike
was great conflict. Kisses. You have
heard that the strike was ordered by me.
| can say that nothing was ever fart her
from the truth. II was ordered by the 400
delegates, and they were prompted by
holy motives. They did not proceed
hastily. and they knew what their action
would involve. Other organizations then
resolved to stand by the Pullman en-
ployeS. Five days after the strike was
begun it was won by the a r. u. The
railroad companies employed 5000 or 1000
marshals, who were sworn in by the reg
ular authorities. Boxcars We're then fired,
and the rioting began"
Mr.. Debs seemed to evade that part of
the trouble in the West con cerning the ac-
tiOns of the strikers, but continued by say
ing: "The A. r. U. is opposed to violence,
and believes in law and order. By violence
they have everything TO lose and nothing
to gain" In conclusion Mr.. Debs said /:
Il believe the world is getting better and
brighter day by day. 1t may be slow, but
we are in the right d irection. Plutocr acy
is not forever to rule the destiny of the
American republic"
