in session here, left tonight for

railway commission left for their
headquarters tonight to make prepar-
ations for strike of their respective
ORDERS"

developments said:
FRIDAY we were on the verge of q
settlement with the railroads and we
thought the matter would be fixed up
today. But this morning the rail-
roads presented mysterious change
of front and assumed such arrogance
