VICTIM on A. R. .. BLACKLIST.
How Fremont Wells Was Knocked
From Pillar TO Post.

Edward Osborne was appointed yes
terday by the probate court as admin
istrator for the estate of Fremont
Wells the switehman who was run
over and killed in the Rock Island
yards the first of the week.
Back of the death of Wells is a story
which brings up memories of the great
A. r. u. strike of 1894, when thOus-
ands of the employees of the Santa E7e
road left their stations in a sympathy
strike.
Among those who walked out was
Wells, who was the foreman of u
switch crew in the Santa F'e yards and
considered one of the most efficient
men in the service of the company.
He Immediately applied for work on
another road and on account of his
ability was placed at work at once.
He worked less than a month when he
was discharged and told that as he
was 'blackIisted by the Santa Fe
it would be impossible for the road TO
keep him. Notwithstanding the fact
that his work had been exceptionally
satisfactory. He Immediately applied
for work on another road and met
with the same experience after he had
worked a short time His experience
with these two roads was his fate with
several other roads to whom he APP
piled for work.
At last dfsheartened at his repeated
failures to secure work at the only
profession in which he possessed any
degree of proficiency, he took to drink
and in a short time dfssipated the
small competency which he had ac-
cumulated in the years of patient toll
for the railroads
A year or so ago he quit drinking
and was again given employment BY
steadily since, until the accident which
cost him his life.
