RETARDED BY THE STRIKE.
Many Telegraph Operators Have Quit
Work and Some of the Ditpatch-

TORONTO, Sept 29.-Traffic on the
Canadian Pacific was greatly retarded to-

many stations where the operators have
gene out trains are at standstill and
communication with the dispatchers is in
many cases being carried on by telephone
In the eastern portions of the Ontario di-

will cause heavy loss in the case of per-
ishable freight. J. w. Leonard, district
manager here, says he has filled all the
stations in mis- division and many applica-
tons from opera tors are still coming in.
Mr.. Leonard says the men who have gone
cut were i'll advised and he expects all the
vacant positions to be filled in a short
time.
VANCOUVER. 3. c., Sept 29-The
strike of the Order of Railway Telegra PHI
ers on the Canadian Pacific which oc-
Cured at Midnight took the officials of the
Pacific division entirely by surprise, the
first intimatio received being the Stoppage
of all trains. From here to North Bend

went out. The assistant superintendent
has. however. undertaken the duties of dis
patcher and succeeded in getting the At

they know no grievances which the train
diSDatcherS have.

PEORIA. H., Sept. eft is stated at the
headquarters of the Order of Railway Tel

cause of the trouble on the Canadian Pa

from the order threatening them with dis
charge unless they did. This was done
three months ago, and the order has not
been rescfnded. Since then, however, not

GOLD DEMOCRATS.
Palmer and Buckner May Make
Tour on a Special Trim.

CHICAGO, Sept. 29.-The national gold
standard committee is considering the adj
visibility of sending Senator Palmer and
General Buekner through the Northwest on
q special train. So many requests have
been received for speeches from the veteran
candidates, particularly from points in
Michigan, Illinois. Wisconsin, Minnesota
and Iowa, that the national committee has
concluded that the only way to meet this
request win be to send Generals Palmer
and Buckner to these States on a special
train. They think such trip will not only
have the effect of offsetting any impress
sion Mr.. Bryan may have produced, but
will create an interest in the National
Democratic ticket which will find an echo
in the balloting in November The present
plan includes a run into Michigan as far
as Grand Rapids. This will be done at the
urgent request of the Michigan delegates
to the INDIANAPOLIS convention, who placed
General Palmer in nomination. From
Grand Rapids the candidates will return to
Chicago and proceed thence to Milwaukee
and thence northwest through Wisconsin
to st. Paul and Minneapolis. From the last
named city they will go to Iowa, visiting
all the larger cities of that State. 1t is not
improbable that short swing through Mis-
souri, will be included in the itinerary.

an hour, and was followed with the clos

sentences he said that in his opinion the
most dangerous plank in the Democratic
platform is the one denouncing President
Cleveland. At this there was loud APP

the denunciation was brought out by the
one great act for which the entiD country
should thank him-the use of the federal
authority for the suppression of labor riots.
