The CIeburne, Texas Strike.

Topeka, July 21.-George R. Hender-
son, superintendent of motive power
for the Santa Fe, has returned from a
trip to the Gulf lines of that road,
where he has been investigating the
strike of the Santa Fe men. Hender-
son charges that the round house men
tried to injure the engines just before
they left.
Mr.. Henderson said the company
had sent Il reserve force of men to Gle
burne, Temple and Galveston to take
the places made vacant by the machin-
lists, boilermakers, blacksmiths and
roundhousemen and that the demands
of the strikers would not be granted
under any, conditions. He said that
any of the old men who SO desired
could return to work at the old scale
of wages

Corn Crop Breaks Record.

Chicago, July 21.-Paul Morton, first
vice president of the Santa Fe road,
predicts bumper crop of corn for the
west and the entire country this sea-
son. He estimates the total crop of
the country at {, 500 million bushels and
delares that the railroads of the west
will have all they can do to take care
of the increased traffic that will result
therefrom.
Mr.. Morton's estimate was made
after careful survey of the situation,
supplemented by personal inspection
of western states traversed by the lines
of the Santa Fe and by reports given
him by agents of the company in nearly
every corn bearing state in the union.
Il am convinced" said Mr.. Morton,
'that this country will have the larg-
est corn yield in its history, and that
the high water mark of 1900, 900, 900
bushels will be exceeded by at least
300, ZOO, 900 bushels"

SANTA r GULF lime STRIKE.
Officials Arranged Work of Griev-
ance Committee Man.
WHICH THE MEN OBJECTED TO.

Topeka, July 19.-The story of the
strike of the Santa Fee machinists on
the Gulf lines has at last been presented
in shape to be understood The men
appear to believe that the management
Disseminated against men on the griev-
ance committee.
No statement from the strikers could
be obtained, but a communication ad
dressed to Cleburne newspaper by
W. E. Symons, mechanical supcrin-
tendent of the Gulf, Colorado & Santa
Fe, gives the company's side of the
controversy: SIN compliance with
your request for some data in reference
to cause of difficulty between the ma
chinists and the company at Cleburne,
beg to advise that this was brought
about on account of the company de-
Ginning to the shopmen to dictate as to
where any certain mechanic shall be
assigned to work. The particular case
in question being one wherein one of
our machinists, who has been running
a machine has been absent from the
shops great many times, and on &C.
count of his absence the company be-
ing required either to allow the ma
chine to stand idle or assign strange
man to the work. This being repeated
SO often as to cause us a great deal of
Inconvenience and annoyance, we were
finally compelled to assign a man to
ha h. L.,
and in turn assign the mechanic to
work at the same rate of pay and under
precisely the same conditions where he
may lay off or be absent from the shop
if necessary without interfering with
the progress of the work in the shops.
The employe in question refused to
perform the work in question assigned
to him; the men demanded that he be
placed at such work as they prescribe.
He was not dismissed or in any manner
prevented from resuming his duties as
a machinist on his return to work. We
could not, however, accede to their de-
mands that he or shop committees
should be allowed to dictate to us Just
where he should work. 1t being alb
solutely essential to the proper opera
ton of the plant that the company's
officers and foremen in charge should
not only lay out the work but assign
the men to it.
"The company regrets very much
that the men should have taken this
very hasty and what appears to US ILL
advised and unwarranted action as we
had no desire to create any friction
whatever among our employees, but
must insist that the management of
the company's property shall be vested
in the officers and foremen employed
for that duty and not delegated to an
individual employee or a committee.
(Signed) "W. E. SYMONS,
Mechanical Superintendent"

IT'S, Local Assessors, DUTY.

Topeka, July 1s.-The street car
lines in Kansas City have never been
assessed. The county attorney adj
vised the county commissioners that
the local assessors had no authority to
assess the cars; that it was the duty of
the state board of railroad assessors to
assess them. Attorney General God
ard decides that under the law, local
assessors are supposed to assess all
property that it is not made the specif-
ic duty of the state board to assess, SO
the county clerk proposes to make a
local assessment of the cars.

THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
Is Drowned Out BY Floods From
Central Iowa.
LOSSES CAN'T BE COMPUTED.

KeolSuk, Ia, July 21.-Heavy rains
In central Iowa are sending a flood
down upon prosperous Missouri farm
ers which will ruin many of them and
cause losses aggregatilg at conserva-
tive estimate, two and half million
dollars. There seems 10 be no hope
for the country between the Mississippi
river and it's Missouri bluffs between
Keoluk and Hannibal, three hundred
square miles, mostly planted to corn,
with some thousands of acres of wheat
in the shock. The water had touched
the damage line the first of last week
and had began to recede when heavy
floods started again in the Des Moines,
Skunk and Iowa rivers. With stage
in the Des Moines river only three feet
below the tops of the great levees the
river began to rise three inches an
hour at its mouth here, continuing
until the factor of safety was wiped
out. A rise of one and half feet in
short time at Ottumwa, and a further
rise throughout its length below the
capital city, was prevented from run
ming out freely by rise of a foot and
a half at Davenport, increasing and
coming down rapidly. The Egyptian
levee, which stood the flood just re-
ceding after strenuous efforts to hold
it, including the instruction of farm
houses to secure lumber for strength
ening the dyke, is only slightly above
the water now, and the coming flood
in the Des Moines will top it certainly.
This will let the water into hundreds
of square miles, including the town of
Alexandria. The corn crop in the
flooded district is all made and wheat
is in the shock, and as a result the
farmers will lose all their years work.
Grain men put the figures of the loss
from the overflow at nearer four mil
lions between Keokulz and Hannibal.
Half the country for distance of
thirty miles between LaGrange and
Hannibal was already under water
long before the crest of the flood ar
rived.
st. Louis.-Only once since the flood
of 1892 has the Mississippi river been
SO high as at present. On the Illinois
side, between st. Louis and Alton
many farms are under water. At the
mouth of the Missouri river the over
flow covers an area of ten miles.

$4,000 MEN RETURN TO WORK.
Strike Has Cost Chicago Folly Ten MIL
Hon Dollars.

lion OOIIar8.
Chicago, July 1s.-Renewed activity
on the part Of Chicago business men
followed the settlement of the freight
handlers and transfers strike, and at
the close of business hours thousands of
tons of freight had been sent to and
from the various freight depots- Every
one of the "a, 900 strikers who could
obtain employment had returned to
work. The strike, it is estimated, cost
the business men of Chicago SO, oOO,-
900, and in order to guard against such
a contingency in the future they are
preparing to begin an educational
campaign in opposition to the sympa-
thetic strike. The labor unions will
be asked to forego the use of this po-
which suffered through the strike will
join in pledging themselves, it is said,
not to sign union agreements which do
not guard them against these strikes.
On the other hand, the labor unions
are fighting to secure the right to alb
rogate agreements for the purpose of
ordering sympathetic strikes The
freight handlers blame the national
officers of the transfers for the loss of
the strike. They declare that the
strike shows the necessity for incor-
porating in all agreements reserva-
ton which will permit strikes.
Credit for the settlement rests with
the state board of arbitration.

BITUMINoUs MINERS MEET.
Anthracite Men Not oni.s Ready 70.
Decision

Decision
Indianapolis, July 19.-If the voice
and influence of President Mitchell of
the United Mine Workers shall prevail
with the members of his organization,
there will be no general strike of the
organization. The chances of such
step being taken now are very remote.
In his speech in the convention, Mr..
Mitchell advised strongly against a
strike and arged that the bituminous
miners continue to work and that a
system of assessment upon the mem
bers of the order, which he outlined,
bo carried into effect as the best means
of affording aid and support of the
striking anthracite men in the east.
His recommendations if adopted by
the convention would have settled the
entire question for which the conven-
ton was called and an immediate adj
journment would have followed.
However the men from the anthra-
cite region asked for an adjournment
to give them time to consider the mat
ter separately. This was given, but it
was apparent that the men in favor of
strike were in the minority.

a victory. There was no recognition

Curran, of the freight handlers union,
is unreconciled; but there is a majority
of his union that are eager to return
to work. The merchants will ask for
protection by militia in the handling
of their goods.

What MIGHT Have Been.

Sunoma, Mich, July 21st.-Mr. De-

pied as l am"
Mr.. Hutchins spent from 1851 to
1864 in the swamps of Louisiana as
a northern soldier and with the re-
suit that he contracted Rheumatism
which gave him much pain till Mr..
Fred Parker, the local druggist, ad-
vised him to try Dodd's Kidney Pills.
The first two boxes did not seem
to help him very much, but Mr.. Park
er, knowing that Dodd's Kidney Pills
would eventually cure him, pressed
Mr.. Hutchins to continue and by the
time four boxes were used the short,
sharp, shooting pains which had tor
tured his back. hip, and legs were
entirely gone. Mr.. Hutchins says:
81 can not tell you how much better
1 am feeling. If it were not for the
way my hands, feet. and knees are
drawn out of shape 1 would be about
as good as ever"
