isfaction in financial circles, as it indi-
Gates slackening in the demand from

preparation of the increased demand

NOT BE PUSHED
Goldman Precipitated the Latest
trouble at Cheyenne.
PERRY'S EYESIGHT RUINED
STRIKE LIABLE TO CONTINUE
FOR MANY MONTHS.
PERRY'S EYESIGHT RUINED
Especial to The Herald1

EHEYENNE, WyO., Dec. 2.--The au-
thorities can do nothing in the
George Goldman assault matter
and the case win be dropped. It was
charged that Goldman, who is a gang
foreman ia the Union Pacific machine
shop was assaulted in the Elkhorn sa-
loon Friday by strikers and that B. +.
Perry. district president of the machin-
ists' union, had hand in the trouble.
SO many conflicting stories are told,
and the fact having been ascertained
that Goldman precipitated the trouble,
the matter will not be pushed.
President Perry denies that he as
Eaulted Goldman, or that he has as
Baulted any one during the strike. He
says he was not in the alley in the
rear Of the Elkhorn saloon and never
saw Goldman that he knows of until
yesterday.
Perry Peaceable.
President Perry claims he has urged
his men to "cut OUT the smuggling in
this fight, and as he has done no fight
Ing himself except when assaulted by
strike breaker Price and Union Pacific
guards, he cannot understand why he
should be blamed for the numerous as
saults. He denies the statement made
by Superintendent of Motive Power
McKeen that he had assaulted five or
Blk iAtn uuIlUk the past TWO weeks.
Perry is in pretty bad shape. The
sight of one eye is gone entirely and
the other eye is giving him trouble.
During the fight with railroad guards
last summer Perry was struck over
the eye with club. He die not think
much about the injury at the time, but
two months ago his eye gave him
trouble, and about a month ago he
consulted physicians when the discov-
cry was made that the sight had been
destroyed.
No Prospect Of Settlement.
In speaking of the possibility of a
settlement of the Union Pacific strike
President Perry said: Il do not look
FOR a settlement of the trouble so long
as Horace @. Burt is at the head of
the Union Pacific. He is a fighter and
will not give up Ultimately the d.
rectors VIII take a hand and viii re-
move Mr.. Burt.
There may be something doing in
january, but ] have serious doubts
whether the strike will be settled then.
In my opinion this is a fight to the
finish and viii not end under a year at
the earliest. We are receiving $3.50
weekly in benefits and this amount is
distributed among the men. A large
work elsewhere and they are helping
those that remain behind. We are get
ting along nicely and can hold out for
an indefinite period"
Mr.. Perry. said there were about $50
men went on strike on the entire Sys-
TEN, and not more than 20 per cent now
remain. All are within easy call: how
ever. and in case Of a settlement could
be gotten together in a few days.

ceeding thirty years, when such use Of
water will not materially injure or de-
