Lockout Order by G. N. and N. P.
Railways Results in General
Strike Of Operators.

After having tried in vain to, adjust
their difficulties with the companies
the telegraph oper ators of the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific
railroads finally went on q strike to,
day. President Perham of the Order
OF Railway Telegraphers last evening
flashed over the wires the words ''Call
the boys out" and in obedience to this
command most Of the 100 telegraphers
on the two systems this morning quit
their instruments and as q result q
general tie-up ia predicted. Messrs.
Connolly, Hsnscom, Kringbring,
Shannon and Stow, of the local force,
went out at O'Clock this morning,
leaving W. E Deverell the only oper
ator at this point who is still at
work. All the operators on the Will
mar division except Mr.. Dsverell, Mr..
Knapp of Dassel and Mr.. Whiting of
Grove City are out. Practically ali
the men are also out on the Willmar
& Sioux Falls and the Breckenridge
divisions. 1t is hardly probable that
the strike would have been declared 40
soon had 1t not been for the fact that
the roads sent their superintendents
over the different divisions to ascer-
tain how the men stood on the matter
of strike. Wherever the men refused
to sign an agreement drawn up by the
company they were discharged from
further service. This lockout system
hastened the strike and the dght is now
on to the bitter end. Practically all
OF the differences had been adjusted,
the question OF overtime pay for Sun.
days being the main obstacle to an
amicable settlement.
Asa result of the strike the follow

this afternoon:.
