Illinois Central Withdraws its
Discharge Order.
President McNeill Said to Have Tele-
graphed All Striking Boiler
makers.
THE STRIKE HERE UNSETTLED

Acting on the ASSURANCE OF National
President Of Boilermakers' Union Nc
Neil, the Illinois Central has with
drawn the order Of last week dis
charging all striking boilermAkers
who refused to return to work by
Tuesday morning. All boilermakers
who desire to return to work may still
do so.
Master Mechanic X. J. Turnbull
yesterday afternoon late received q
telegram from Chicago signed by Sec
ond Vice President ]. 4. Harahan.
saying that he. Mr.. Harahan, has
held conference with President Nc
Neill and had received the assurance
Of that officer to telegraph each city
where the strike is In force, that he
would not support the strike; that
the men had gone out withous gu.
thority and he would direct them TO
return to work at once After this
assurance Mr.. Kara han decided to let
those return to work who cared to
do so.
The kilograms were sent out and
one was received by the local strikers,
1t is said. although they would say
nothing Of it. They still seem 10 re-
fuse to recognize McNeill's authority
and had not returned TO work TO-DAY.

the engines being put out is con.
cerned, the mschinists being able TO
do so much work and no more until
the hues are put in and the boilers
finished.
Ii is reported that ono way the
company may attempt to s'ttle its
strike here Is by sending its boiler
makers from other places here. The
strikers in several PLACES, in fact
nearly everywhere north OF the Ohio
river, returned to work, and as they
are union men, no objection could ba
raised ~ local shop men to working
with them should they consent TO be
transferred TO Psducah temporarily il
Is said. II IL presumed that IL they
are willing 10 work where they are
for the road, and do not feel justified
in striking, they wonld do likewise
here and II is claimed BY some officials
that as the men do not think the local
boilermakers are justified in striking,
rs they returned to work thoms, Ives.
they would not decline TO come here

REFORMING THE JURY SYSTEM

which could profitably be followed
out in many other places. He has

do well enough to make . living at il.
When jurors are needed to I'LL out Q
panel the Greensboro Judge unlocks
the jury wheel and draws the requi-
site number, instead of summoning
"bystanders. which usually means
court room buns. Often the jurors
drawn live in remote parts Of the
bounty, but this makes no difference.
The sheriff's duty is to summon them
and he does it. No bystanders ara
selected in the Owensboro court when
IL can be avoided, and according to
the Greensboro papers n can he avoid
ed quite often, and Is.
One Of the papers, in commenting
on the innovation, says: This marks
the righting of an evil which has been
pointed out by writer's and eminent
jurists everywhere a. the chief cause
for the defeat Of Justice and for the
courts being brought into contempt"
The paper is right. Most of the
ignorant idleIs who hang around
