TROUBLE AHEAD
The A. r. U. is Preparing for Another
Fight

ne "A. X. ". Is preparing IOT AnOlHer
Fight
SAN FRANCISCO, April S.-Hairy
Knox of the Sacramento branch of the A.
r. U. is credited with saying that tie
union has been thoroughly organized and
is preparing for another tussle with the
Southern Pacific company. The Sacra-
mnento strike leader says that since the
trouble last June and July the organiza-
ton has succeeded in gradually enlisting
the sympathy and support of the other
organizations of Southern Pacific EN-.
ployces. until now it feels able to make
Il winning fight against the company.
The engineers and train men ar in SYM
pathy with the cause of the A. X. L., ac-
cording to Knox, and the union may be
expected make Il demand in the near
future for a restoration OF their wages.
General Superintendent Fillmore. who
has Just returned from "a tour of inspec-
tio1 over the Oregon lines, states that
there is no truth that another strike is
imminent. The engineers, he said,
patched up all their differences with the
company by agreeing to the schedule OF
wages now in effect AS to the trainmen
whose organization includes conductors.
bral.emen and switchmen, they have
agreed with the com pany to Work undtI
the terms of the adjustment enacted Il
the beginning or the year until June L.
on which date the company will cons der
any complaints against any feature OF
their wage schedule. 1t is known that
the old mem bers OF the A. K. L. who par
tcipated in the strike are no more iden-
titled with ths company, so that without
the assistance OF engineers and trainmen
they would find it a physical impossi BIZ
lity to strike. That the engineers ana
trainmen have identified themselves VITA
the A. h. t. is positively denied. but the
assertion OF the sacramento strike leade:
is regarded by officials and employees
alike as bsing i'll advised.

NEW YORK, April S.-A private letter

THE RAILROAD STRIKERS
Probability of the Cases in San Fran
cisco Being Dismissed
ii This Conclusion is Arrived at Indictments

Similar Fate

SAN FRANCISCO, April Sit is more
than probable that the cases against
Mayne and Cassidy, the two railroad
strikers whose trial before Judge Morrow
has cost the government $22, 900, will be
dismissed. United States District Attor
ney Foote has not said so much in SO
many words, though from remarks he
made before the trial and from what he
said to reporter this inference is war
rantable. The cases of Mayne and Cas-
sidy were te t cases. The course pursued
in regard to the $50 other indictments
depended on the result OF the trial just
terminated.
II will not make my decision for
week or ten days, said Mr.. Foot as
there are many points to be taken into
consideration. If conc ude to dismiss
Mayne and Cassidy. the 130 other indict
ments Will also be dism ssed. The case
was clear one against them and fairly
tried. but the jury would not convict.
That is all there is about it except the
manner in which this money was used
which the government paid out for wit
ness fees and expenses. Affidavits were
made under the pauper witness clause
and between $40, 600 and S12, 00) was paid
which really went to the support of the
army of strikers that has been hanging
around the appraiser $ building since the
beginning of the trial. One of them came
to me not long ago and made the remark
that he would like this kind of thing
to go on for whole year.
