FEAR STAMPEDE TO KEYS.
Leaders In New York VIII Double
Pickets at Telegraph Offices.

New York, Sept. IA secret meeting
of the striking telegraphers was held to-
day, at which reports We're received from
the telegraphers who had struck in the
various offices. This was on account of
a feeling that had arisen that the crisis
in the strike will come this week. and the
circulation Of rumors that tomorrow the
strikers may stampede back to work.
Daniel L. Russell said after the meet
ing: While there is no fear OF a stam-
pede Of the strikers back TO work. the
pickets viii be doubled and be around
early tomorrow at all centers. to be on
guard against the agents Of the compan-
les bringing about anything that would
look like stampede. The strikers are all
in good spirits, and ready to hold out
indefinitely"
Later Russell announced that an ulti-
matum will be sent to the companies
this week. Signatures, he said. are being
secured for this ultimatum, which will
notify the companies that unless they
grant the demands or agree at once to a
settlement or arbitration, the signers of
the utimatum will pledge themselves not
to go back to work for twelve months.
