Approximately 5000 men are now
out on strike in st. Louis and it's i'm
mediate vicinity. The threatened
strikes, which have been brewing for
some weeks, have eliminated and
commerce. in that city is seriously in
terrupted. The freight handlers of
all the railroads doing business there
struck yesterday.in sympathy with the
porters and packers, who recently
went out at Cupple Station, where
most of the wholesale firm of that
city are located. Between 800 and
1,00C men went out, and, as a result,
there is possibility that the officials
of the road will endeavor to secure an
Injunction from the federal court to
restrain the men from interfering
with their business if they proceed to
fill the vacancies with non union men.

Michigan Central and Pere Marquette
Agree on Routes.

CHICAGO. December BY an agreement
between the Michigan Central and the Pere
Marquette railroads the lively war antic-
ipated upon the entrance of the Pere Mar
quette lines into Chicago has been averted.
Close and friendly relations will exist.
Instead Of using the Chicago Terminal
Transfer Company's tracks the Pere Mar
quette will use the Lake Shore tracks from
Porter Ind, to Whiting. Ind and from the
latter town enter Chicago over the Michi-
gan Centrars tracks. 1t is contemplated
that the Pere Marquette later shall use the
Lake Shore exclusively In entering Chi
cago.
Another agreement between the Michigan
Central and the Pere Marquette allows the
latter to enter Buffalo N. Y. over the
Michigan Central rails. In consequence the
Pere Marquette's plan to build from St.
Thomas. Ont. to Buffalo has been aban-
doned. In explanation of this agreement
it Is said that the Vanderbilts have secured
large interest in. if not control Of. the
Pere Marquette.
