MOVEMENT OF TRAINS.
Strike Has Had But Little Eject in
This City.

Superintendent Darlington, of the Indian
apolis division of the Pennsylvania lines,
had up to yesterday noon sent seventy
five men, we'll informed in different
branches of handling trains, TO Chicago.
Conductor Wise, who brought Train q
in over the Vandalia, yesterday, which is
made up of Pullman cars, states that the
officers of the St. Louis Terminals made
the train up. He was about a half houI
late in getting out. but arrived at Indian
apolis on time. He says matters look ugly
at st. Louis, and conservative people fear
that the worst is yet to come.
Conductor CremmenS, of the Big Four,
who brought Train Is from Chicago yester-
day. said the crew experienced but little
trouble getting out. After running out a
short distance burly sWitchman called
the train to a halt and asked If it was a
Big Four train. on receiving an affirmative
answer he wheeled around, spread his arms
and hallooed Justify TO men further on:
Its a Big Four train; let her CO."
All day trains came in yesterday on
time, including those with Pullmans.
Most of the Indianapolis lines are hand
ling some through business and running
local freights as usual.
The Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton had
a local freight each way yesterday, and
one through freight each way.
So far as Indianapolis is concerned there
are no indications of trouble as yet. The
statement that there are over twelve hun
bred members OF the American Railway
Union in the city is denied by some, who
say there are only five hundred members
of that organization here.
Local freight agents at this point Were
yesterday notified to take no freight via
Cincinnati for points on the following
roads: c., II. & D.. c., c., & ST. L..
b. & o. and c. & o. until further notice,
and the following roads gave notice that
no live stock or perishable freightS would
be received for points on their line: c. &
f. l., c. & II. V. via Columbus, Santa Fe
the Frisco line via st. Louis, and the
c., c., e. & st. l.. via Cairo, Ill.
