carrying railroad in the strike dis
trict may be tied up by a great strike
OF trainmen and telegraph operators
ifany attempt is made to send sud
stantial supply of anthracite to the

This course has been decided upon
as the result of series of secret meet
ings OF members of the unions which
were held in Philadelphia and Tren-
ton. Both organizations have the
support Of the American Federation
of Labor. and should they 60 ont the
roads will have to suspend business.
There are l.000,000 members of
the Federation, which virtually has

as defeat of the miners will be the

the Lackawanna. the Delaware and
Hudson and the Erie, the firemen,
conductors, brakemen, yard hands
and telegraph operators are better
organized now than they ever were.
President Mitchells knowledge that
the trainmen are prepared to aid the
miners in an extremity is said to be
partly the cause of the excess OF con.
fidence noticeable in his public utter
ances OF late.
