c. S CLARKE.
"Mr. Clarke heard nothing fur
ther from the heads of the commit
tee until his arrival in Mobile on
May 9th. 1t was a reasonable in
ference from this silence that they
had agreed to the conference in
Mobile, However, on the morning
of Nav 9th he was handed a tele-
gram to the effect that unless he
acceded at once to the demands of
the meu trouble would ensue.
simultaneously with the receipt
of this message be was informed
that the strike order had been is
sued to be effective at 10 o'clock on
that very morning.
Even after the receipt of this
surprising intelligence Mr.. Clarke
issued an order to the effect that all
who reported for duty by Tuesday
morning, May u, would be restored
to their places without prejudice
This in brief is a history of the strike
from its inception to the present
time" said the passenger official il
