a late telegram from ST. Paul says:
Commercial clubs and merchants and
farmers organizations along the line
OF the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific railway In Minnesota are ask.
ed 10 take action to end the present
t~elegraphers' strike and the governor
OF Minnesota has been appealed to
use his good office In bringing about
harmony In order that business in
terests may suffer no more injury.
The wheat harvest throughout Mime.
sofa and the Dakotas has begun and
the work Of moving a big crop will,
1t Is said, test the capacity Of the
roads even under normal conditions.
The telegraphers at strike head
quarters seem TO attach great import
ance to the expected arrival Of Presi.
dent J. J. Hill and in his Official cir.
cular today President Perham says:
"Mr. j. j. Hill Is expected In st.
Paul within a few days and 1t Is
thought that he will look into the
strike situation and possibly bring
about a solution Of u difficulties"
A wreck on the Northern Pacific at
Brainerd a day or two ago tied up that
branch for several hours. A switch
engine was on the main line and a
head on collision occurred In which
both engines were wrecked and the
conductor and several passengers
bruised, but no one seriously hurt.
The strikers claim the wreck was
caused by a lack Of telegraphic COM
m~unication.
One of the Geographic companies
whose lines follow the Great Northern
between here and Duluth was without
communication with the latter place
nearly all day. Linemen sent out are
reported to have found the wires
crossed near West Duluth, a fine wire
having been wrapped around the con-
nections of all the wires on the pole.
A special from Aberdeen, S. D., says
the strike on that branch of the Great
Northern road is over, all of the men
having returned to work satisfied with
a schedule presented to them last
night.
More freight was reported moving
today than has been moved for a week
past. The restrictions on perishable
goods were removed by both roads to
day, although bills of freight con
signed to some stations were required
to be prepaid. President Perham de
MED that there has been any serious
DETECTION from the ranks of the strik
ers and says that the companies are
securing sufficient operators to be o.
much service to them. He denied thai
there was a possibility of a genera
sympathetic strike on the part of the
engineers and trainmen, but said tina
on the Montana division conductors
and engineers had refused to receive
telephone or alag" orders.
