PENNSYLVANIA CONDUCTORS
Condemn the Strike and Assure Employers OF
Their Fidelity.

PHILADELPHIA, July l5.-The loyalty OF
the Pennsylvania railroad employees to the
company during the recent strike has been
demonstrated in decisive action taken by
one of the organized bodies. This action
is explained in the following communica-
ton to General Manager Provost:
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July IA, 1894.
S. M. Provost, General Manager Penn
sylvania Railroad-Dear Sir: At regular
meeting of West Philadelphia division 1852,
Order Of Railway Conductors, last evening,
the following resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, we, as members of the Order of
Railroad Conductors in Philadelphia and
vicinity, both passenger and freight, do con-
slider the railway situation at Chicago and
other western points as a serious and de-
plorable condition of affairs, entirely un-
called for; therefore,
Resolved, that we, as law abiding citizens
and faithful employees, do condo mn the ac-
ton of those who took part in the wanton
and indiscriminate destruction of life and
property, causing a needless stagnation OF
commerce, to the detriment of the interests
of their employers and citizens of these
United States; that at no time or place in
tbs vicinity has any feeling, other than
loyalty TO our employers, been manifested
and that we have no utilization, directly or
indirectly, with the organization known as
the American Railway Union.
That copy of these resolutions be pre-
sented to the general manager of the
Pennsylvania Railroad for his information.

MUST TAKE THEIR CHANCE.
The Pullman Company Will Treat All the Men
as tx-Employes.

CHICAGO, July l5.-Supt. Middleton of
the Pullman Car Company, intimates that a
number of employeswho have been trouble
some will not be allowed to go to work
again. -
1--WE shall treat every one of them as ex-
employees" he said last evening. Before
single one of them can go to work again
he must write an application for employ
ment. If we want him, we will take him.
Otherwise we will not"
"How soon do you think the works will
start up?"
II haven't the slightest idea. As soon as
get orders from the officers uptown l

"Will you raise wages"
"Most assuredly not. 1t is impossible to
pay the '93 scale while times are so hard
When we open the works again it will be
on the wage scale against which these men
rebelled."
From another official of the company it
was learned that the Pullman Company had
enough contract work on its books now to
furnish employment for $500 men about
five weeks.

will stand by ps to the end. We can live
cheaply, and will stand by this fight till the
new century dawns.'
Referring to the offer of General Mana
ger Kendrick, Offering to restore strikers to
their places if they returned at once, Mr..
Debs said 49,
.sThat's an old chestnut. The Northern
Pacific is tied up sitter than petri1ed
whale from st. Paul to thu Pacific, and the
offer is worthless. The St. Paul road is
tied up, too. The engineers, conductors
and firemen met with the rest last night,
and will guarantee trains are not running
on that line today"
What about President Cleveland's con-
dition that you must call off the strike be-
fore arbitration can be had?"
well, Mr.. Cleveland will have to look
to the general managers. He has not acted
in way to inspire the confidence of the
people in this matter, but in a manner
favorable to the corporations. He will not
have to appoint that board now. What is
there to be arbitrated now? There is moth
ing new to arbitrate, for we can't arbitrate
after the general managers refusal to take
back the clean handed men who are out on
strike. We can't arbitrate and leave our
men out, and will never do so.'

DEBS' STATEMENT.
Says the Strike is Still on and will be Fought
10 a Finish. T.:

Chicago, July 15-President Debs,
yesterday, made the following statement to
the reporters ~
1.-The situation now is, that so far as we
are concerned, every avenue to settlement
has been closed up by the rejection by the
General Managers Association Of our pro-
position submitted, Friday. Not only did
they reject fair and square proposition to
settle, but took occasion to show their VEN
omous spleen by attempting to insult not
only organized labor, but Mayor Hopkins
and the city authorities as WE'LL AS far as
we are concerned we feel like the boy who
was kicked by the jackass, we consider the
source from whence it came
Labor representatives cannot be the
friends of railway officials and the friends
of the employees at the same time. If they
are the friends of the officials it is because
of their apostasy to the men. We have the
confidence and support of vast msjorty
of the employees, hence the general mana
gers have no use for us, for which we are
truly grateful.
at is evident that their purpose is now
to crush out organized labor. They should
have better sense. They can no more crush
out the spirit of unionism than they can
stop the flowing of rivers to the sea. We
now propose to muster all our resources
and combine all our forces to give the rail-
roads fight to the finish, regardless of
cons quences. IT,.
"For the past 10 days we have been
flooded with kilograms, letters and commu-
nications from all sources, appealing to us
to de clare the strike off. We have done
everything that manly men could do to that
end. We will not surrender our honor
The great public should no longer appeal
to us. If they want freights moved, meat
iced, thousands of cars of frui. moved in
from the West and kept from peiishing,
let them turn to the general managers, who
have refused to allow the strike to be de-
clared off.
"We now propose to test the efficacy of
public opinion. If the railroad managers
had made us as fair proposition as we
made to them and we had refused to accept
it public opinion would rise in revolt and
would enforce its verdict at the point of
federal bayonets. What we ask is a square
deal at the hands of the people. Corpora
tons are not more sacred than flesh and
blood. If they can with impunity disre-
gard public convenience, safety aud COM
fort, then the plain common people whom
We EtpIestHt III tlultipheu tuUustnus nave
the same prerogaGves when srrayed against
them.
"They told Mayor Hopkins, Friday,
that their strike was ended. Ii they did
not tell an internal lie, why don't they
allow the troops to be withdrawn? But
the railroads have not been charged with
telling the truth since this trouble began,
and if they were, the charge could not be
proved. But the strike is on harder than
ever, and they know it."
Asked if they were prepared to carry for
ward the strike, Mr.. Debs replied;
1--WE are in shape to make this strike last
for six months or six years. The American
Federation of Labor did not order its men
out, but pledged Its support, and all labor

PLENTY OF CASH.
american Railway Union Has Plenty OF Funds
to Continue the Fight.

CHICAGO, July l5.-There is no truth in
the report that the American Railway UnioI
is bankrupt, and from present indications
there is no probability of such a thing oc-
curing. A prominent officer of the A. X.
o., today, made an estimate of the running
expenses of the office force at $500 week
The association has been accommodating
money for over a year.
For June the receipts at the Headquarters
for dues alone were over $4,000. One
days receipts for dues this month footed
up nearly $1,000. As the local lodges cover
the incidental expenses and the general as
sessment is coming in at the rate of $1,000
a week, the officers of the order say they
are in better condition financially than ever
to proceed with the strike.

MINERS GIVE IN.
Have Been Out Since April and Lest $500,
600 in Wages.

CORNING. N. Y, July l5.-The miners
at Arnot, Morris Run, Fall Brook, Antrim
and Tioga county, Pa, have decided to re-
sumo work. They have been on strike
since April 10, when ordered out by Presi.
dent Mcbride of the United Mine Workers
Union. Estimating the number of these
miners at nearly 1000, with about three
laborers to every miner, besides drivers and
other employees, there must have been 1000
or 5000 persons affected by the strike. As
the men have been out about three months,
their financial loss cannot be less than
$500 600.

Whereas, We the grand board of direc-

Whereas, Our grand master. Miles W..

held that all members of the Switchmen's

constitution, be it therefore,
Resolved, That it is the sense of this
body, the grand board of directors, assem-
bled, to fully indorse our grand master in
