TROUBLE IS BREWING.
Attorney Erwin Says Another Big
Railroad Strike Is Imminent.

Attorney Erwin Says Another Big
Railroad Strike Is Imminent.
mo mortal tongue can tell" was the
reply made yesterday by a prominent
railroad official when asked if a re-
currence of railroad strikes is likely 20
come this summer. The companies, as
well as the laborers who have places,
are hopeful that such a disaster will
not come again, but there is fear of it
from both quarters. w. w. Erwin is
probably, as he claims, in a position
to know the feeling of the railroad
employees. He is in close touch with
Debs, and through him with what is
going on in the A. r. U. This gentle
man is of the opinion that fight is
brewing between railroad operators
and employees that will put all past
strikes in the shade. Debs has been
active during the winter organizing the
A. r. U. He has spent months in the
West, going clear to the coast. The
work of organization is also being
prosecuted in the East. Aside from
this, there is a craving on the part of
the outs for revenge, and they would
not be adverse to a general strike.
The engineers and firemens associa-
lions are having trouble also, and are
reaping some of the results of refus-
ing to help the A. r. u. out
All the railroads are complaining of
hard times and saying that they hope
it will not be necessary to cut wages.
Judge Chandler, of the Milwaukee
system, said yesterday that If times
don't improve, SO that railroads can
do more business, his road will either
have to go into bankruptcy or cut
wages. Il sincerely hope we will not
have to cut wages" he added The
same complaint of hard times is being
made by all the roads. Representa-
tives of several roads have stated that
any additional burdens that should be
heaped upon railroads by legislation
would result in a reduction of wages
This was common statement before
committees of the legislature during
the winter.
Besides this, the employees seemed to
fear such results, and hundreds of
petitions, signed by thousands of rail-
road workers, were sent to the legis-
lature, asking that reduction in freight
rates be not made by law. Talking
with several railroad officials yester-
day brought out the information that
they fear cut in wages will have to
follow in case business does not i'm
prove. They are adverse to such ac-
ton, If it can by any possibility be
averted.

the circuit court of appeals. only one
of the circuit judges would be dis
qualified from sitting in the hear
ing.
There is a case, involving a matter
under the receivership of the road,
coming up for hearing before the
circuit court of appeals, which meets
in this City May 6. The case was
tried before Judge Thomas, of North
Dakota, and grows out of a claim for
supplies furnished to the company
hotel at Fargo. 1t is claimed that the
receivers should give this claim a
preference over ether. claims for
bonds. On this point the appeal was
taken.

QUAY'S REVENGE.
SENSATION SPRUNG IN PENNsYL.
3 VAEIA.
LExOWING PHILADELPHIA.
Resolution Introduced in the Leg
islature to Investigate the
Cfty,s Affairs.

HARRISBURG, Pa, April "a
The municipal affairs of Philadelphia
are likely to be investigated by a
senate committee. This afternoon
Senator Penrose sprung his expected
resolution in the senate, providing for
a committee of five to be appointed
by the president pro tenn to investi-
gate the charges that the councils of
the Quaker City are influenced by
powerful combinations to obtain fran
chises and privileges without ade-
quate compensation to the city. The
resolution was unanimously referred
to the committee on judiciary.
The offering of the resolution at this
time was wholly unexpected, and
created a great sensation in official
and political circles here.
Senator Penrose is regarded here
as one Of Senator Quay's representa-
tives, and after David Martin re-
belled against the leadership of that
gentleman and refused to support
Senator Penrose's candidacy for the
mayoralty, it was rumored that the
latter would at once offer resolu-
ton calling for an executive inquiry
into the methods by which contracts
and franchises in Philadelphia have
been distributed among certain ia
vored persons and corporations. This
was looked for in the latter part of
February, but the matter had been
allowed to hang fire so long that the
resolution Of this afternoon had al
most the effect of a bombshell. 1t
will be remembered that soon after
the defeat of Senator Penrose for the
nomination, Senator Quay, smarting
under the defeat he had received at
the hands of David Martin, arose in
his place in the United States senate,
and, without mentioning the name of
Mr. Martin, severely arraigned hat
of a corporation which had ordered
the defeat of Mr.. Penrose. Senator
Quay is coming here from Florida
early next week, and it is expected
that his early arrival had something
to do with the offering Of the resolu-
ton at this time.
John Wanamaker and Thomas Do
Ian, of Philadelphia, were conspicu-
Gus on the floor of the senate this
afternoon, and they were said to be
working against the resolution. Prom
inent senators say there is not much
doubt of the passage of the resolu-
ton when it comes out of committee.

QUITE DOUBTFUL.

c. w. Bum, who has been recently
appointed counsel for the receivers
of the road, and who returned from
New York Monday, knew nothing of
even the rumor that Willard would
again secure control of the road.
Mr. Bum passed a couple Of hours in
the office of Mr.. Mitchell, in the
general building of the company yes
terday. The two were comforting
about the general business of the
company, in so far as it relates to the
northwest. Mr.. Bum has begun his
duties and will give attention Ito the
general business of the company, in
so far as it relates to the receivership
of the road Mr. Mitchell has all he
can attend to in looking after the
litiga ton in the Dakotas and Mime

Mr.. McNaught will do. He has not

of the attorneys, is still i'll in Balti-

departments. One of these has rela-

The other bears upon the legal ques-
tons arising on account of and IN

Mr.. Bum, as
COUNSEL FOR THE RECEIVERS
and Mr.. Mitchell and his associates,
as attorneys for the company, will
confer on general matters, but will
act Independently along their respec-
tive lines. The orders appointing re-
ceivers for the system were madeain
the UnitedStates circuit courts in the
several states through which the
road passes. Judge Henry c. Cald-
well made the order in this state, and
Judge Alfred D. Thomas made the
order in North Dakota. These
judges will hear matters and try
causes relating to the road and its
branches in their respective states,
the same as other judges of the
federal courts will do in the other

RAILROADS SATISFIED
With the Work ~Of the Last Legis-
lature Affecting Them.

G. S. Fernald, of the land department
of the Northern Pacific road, being
asked yesterday what effect the legis-
lation passed during the recent session
would have upon railroads, said that
there has been no legislation particu-
larly inimical to railroads, beyond the
passage of the Anderson bill 81 pre-
sumo" he continued, -"the reason was
that the conservative element that pre-
dominated did not believe in being
harsh with railroads during the present
financial difficulties and dullness of.
business. To have been severe on rail-
roads at this time would have jeopar-
died the interests of the Northwest,
Judge Chandler, of the Milwaukee
road, was asked how he regarded the
legislation bearing upon railroads. He
said that he had decided opinions upon
legislation generally, but was old
enough not to express them He had
nothing to complain of as far as his
road is concerned. He was glad that
freight rates had not been cut, as that
would have crippled the roads. He
was glad that the legislature had been
conservative, and taken a reasonable
view of conditions.

CHICAGO, April 4.-The freight
agents of the Central Traffic associa-
ton lines were in session today con-
sidering divisions and the question of
through billing via Chicago. Incl
dentally they took up the question of
rate decentralization which just now is
very bad in their territory. All freight
rates east-bound from Chicago were
by mutual agreement to have been re-
stored Monday and to be rigidly MAIN
tanned thereafter. They may have
been restored but they certainly. have
not been maintained. Rates today and
yesterday were cut as freely and as
deeply as at any time during the last
six months. The only remedy which
seems capable of curing the present
Generalization is to give all the lines
enough freight to satisfy them. This,
however, cannot be done under exist
ing commercial conditions, and the
chances are that the fight for freight
with its resultant low rates, will be
kept up for some time
