TRACKMEN GO ON STRIKE
CANADIAN PACIFIC SECTION HANDS
WANT MORE PAY.

MONTREAL, June 17.-OficiaIs of the
Trackmen's union announce that be-
tween 5000 and $500 of the Canadian Pa
ci1c trackmen struck today for an in
crease of wages.
The trackmen receive an average of
S15 day and want an increase of
from 10 to 20 cents a day, according to
locality. They claim that while the
Canadian Pacific pretended to increase
their wages 5 cents day, they really
mad decreased the weeks wage
by S714 cents through cutting down
track walking, so that the com
pany, with the apparent increase, still
had the better of the trackmen by 271b
cents a week. The company claims the
men are as well paid as on any other
road.
Grand President Wilson, of the Track
mems union counts upon so per cent of
the Canadian Pacific men having gone
out on strike. Reports state that only
one gang is at work on the Toronto
division and seven on the Atlantic divis-
ion. On the Pacific division all the gangs
have stopped work. In all 300 men are
employed by the road.

TRACKS FOR NEN DEPOT
PREPARATIONS BEING MADE TO
PUT IN COMPLICATED
SYSTEM
WAITING FOR MORE ROOM
Track Plan Will Be One of the Most
Elaborate of Any Depot
in the United
States.

Preparations are being made to install
the complicated track system designed
by Mr. H. S. Sperry for the union depot.
Even at the present time the maze Of
tracks entering the depot seems Devil
dering enough, but the new system under
providing for large increase in tie num-
Der of trains which can enter and leave
the depot daily will take skilled gangs OF
workmen several months to complete.
After the plans had been prepared by
the expert they were submitted to the
different roads interested, and were sub
seQuently considered at a meeting of the
union depot company, held last week,
when final approval was given them.
Work has already commenced on sew
eral of the tracks, which are being ar
ranged to suit the new plans, but most
of it will necessarily be done after the
room to be provided by the filing in of
the river becomes available. This work
viii be the last to be finished, but con-
siderable preliminary Encouragement Of
the rails is possible, and this is being
done now, so as to permit of the rest be-
ing completed as quickly as possible when
the filling has been made.
Before leaving the city Mr.. Sperry said
improvements are finished, one Of the
best in the country. More complete and
extensive facilities are to be found at
Boston and st. Louis, but st. Paul will be
provided with far more train facilities
than are to be found in Ony one depot in
either New York or Chicago.

LAST OF CHILEAN CLAIMS
INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION OF
THE TWO COUNTRIES HAS COM
PLETED ITS WORK
CLOSED WITH ITATA CASE
Decision of the Commission in Fa-
VOr of the United States and
Against the Owners of
the Vessel.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE United
States and Chilean claims commission
completed it's work today. The last case
to be decided was that involving the
seizure in 1891 of the Chilean vessel Itata
by the authorities of the United States
on the ground that she was carrying
cargo of contraband arms to Chile. The
claim was for &44051, with interest, and
was made by the South American Steam
snip company, which had chartered the
ship to the Chilean government The
decision of today dismisses the case. Min
lister Pioda, of Switzerland, president of
the commission, and Mr.. Gamma, the
American commissioner, agreed in this
view, while Minister Vicuna, of Chile,
dissented The commission sums it's find
ings as follows:
THAT the damages alleged by the
plaintiffs were not occasioned by any
unjustifiah1 action on the part or the
United States; that Itata was not pur-
sued by the naval authorities Of the
United States upon the high seas into
Chilean waters, induced to surrender by
display of superior force, and brought
back under duress.
"II.-That the 1tata was voluntarily
placed at the disposal of the United
States by the provisional government Of
Chile.
'TTI.-That there was probable cause
for the detention of the Itata at San
Diego by the authorities of the United
States, and therefore no wrong was done.
'IV.-Hhat the claimant has brought
suit in the courts of Chile against the
government of Chile to recover damages
upon the identical claim that is here
set against the United States; the COM
pany has recovered judgment thereon,
and that the judgment has been paid
to the company by the government of
Chile. The case must therefore be dis
missed"
Another important case decided today
was that Of the Central & South Amer
lean Telegraph company against Chile,
growing out of tax of 2 cents mes
sage levied during the uprising of 1891.
The commission awarded $4,000 damages.
During the sessions of the commission
there have been seventeen cases against
Chile and two against the United States.
The total Of American claims against Chile
was $34, 600, and Of this $2S, 062 or "a
per cent, has been awarded by the COM
mission. The two Chilean claims against
this government were the Itata case, dis
posed of today, and that Of Richard
Trumbull, who was awarded $1,000 for
services to the United States legation in
Chile in an eXtradition case some years
ago.

AGAINST SUNDAY EXCURSIONS.
Western Railroads Say Their Men
Need Day for Rest

OMAHA, June 17.-Western railroads,
which are supposed to look upon Sunday
as like unto other days, have taken a
stand against unnecessary travelling on
the Sabbath day. They have thwarted
the intention of the Omaha Commercial
club to run excursions from the country
on Sunday purpOsed to boom the auditor
ium concerts. The roads say that the
building of a new auditorium is I'M
doubleday a worthy project, but they can
not have their men working more than
necessary on Sunday. The excursions
We're planned over the Burlington, the
Union Pacific and the Elkhorn. The gen.
eral passenger agent of the first road
said: I'VE will not force our men to
carry excursion trains on Sunday; they
get few enough Sabbaths off as it is.
such expeditions are, in addition, hurt
full to the morals of the community. The
auditorium must be built some other
way"
Nothing is done on Sunday on the
Union Pacific line, an official of that road
said, except what is absolutely necessary
70 handle peIdshahle, goods and the over
land passenger service. All local trains
are at a standstill on that day.
