THESANTAFESTRIKE
Officials and Operators Give
Conflicting Reports.
GENERAL MANAGER NUDGE SAECUINE
Chairman Newman of the Te1eGra-
piers Union Says the Strikers Are
Calming and Lines Will he
Completely Tied Up.

Topeka, Dec. 1.-THE officials OF
he Santa Fe railroad say the strike OF
operators is practically over. The opera
tors themselves continue in the belief that
their case is u winning one and say the
prospects look better now than they have
been any time yet.
The men in the Santa Fe shops here
went to work as usual yesterday. An or
der had been issued closing the shops as
$ result of the strike. The officials later
decided it to be useless for the shops to
lie kept closed, as they say the strike will
he Of small proportions.
General Manager Nudge processes to
be sanguine that the strike is at an end
and talks as follows regarding the revo-
cation of the order for closing the shops:
The strike amounts to so little and
the situation is so favorable that to shut
down the shops 10 not necessary. Ii the
operators had succeeded in tying up the
system and had prevented the operation
of trains, we would have had nothing. for
the men In the shops to do. AS it is, with
our trains running very close to schedule
and no practical interruption to our busi-
ness, there will be the regular work to do
and no reason why it should not be done.
We have word that on the California
liaes the operators are back to work. On
the Southern California and San Joaquin
Valley there is none out. They went
ont when the order to strike was sent,
hut came back shortly afterward. They
have no grievance and are under con-
tract. On the Santa Fe Pacific there are
about 80 operators out, according to our
information. One hundred and twenty
three men went out on the Gulf line in
the original strike, which was the whole
number employed"

LOS ANGELES, Dec 11.-From Gen

ment was obtained in regard to the strike
