that the employees of the system do
not desire strike is evident, as they
are doing all in their power to bring
about an adjustment OF Affairs, and
1t was at the instigation Of the gen.
eral committee that the meeting was
arranged.
A. B. Garretson, president of the
conductors, and w. G. Lee, president
of the trainmen. are doing every
thing in their power to adjust all
differences and avoid a strike, and
the former stated that as long as
there is a door open and there is a
possibility OF avoiding a strike the
employees of the road will take ad-
vantage OF it.
At the general offices of the rail.

officials had nothing to say in regard
to the situation.

quickly overlooked their boundaries,
following the cloudburst. sweeping
the crops before them.
Much property besides the crops
was also damaged. Never have pros
poets for a good crop year been SO
gloomy in Kentucky as they are at
present.
The cloudburst at the head Of the
Licking Valley, the latter part OF
June. wrought much damage, as also
did the clOudbuFst Breathitt

IieVed that the storm of yesterday ex-

MAY AVERT BIG
RAILWAY STRIKE
Conference Being Held Today but
Railroads Are Preparing for
q WalkOut.

PORT HURON, Mich, July 49,
Within the past As hours the Grand
Trunk Railroad officials have rushed
strike breakers to every point on it's
line. The movement is conducted
quietly, and but for the fact that the
Canadian immigration officials turned
back 100 men Sunday noon, the mat
ter would not have become public.
Forty strike breakers are stationed
at this point, and $50 went to De-
troit. 1t is expected that the strike
order, which will affect the employ
es Of the Grand Trunk on the Chi
cago division, will be read at a meet
Ing of the tralnmen and switchmen
to be held Monday morning at 8
O'Clock. The men who were turned
back at the Canadian border were
later sent to Detroit, and will en-
deayor to enter Canada from that
point.
The strike, II 1t goes into effect.
will include passenger and freight
conductors and brakemen, switch
men and baggagemen. The strike
breakers have been recruited In Chi
cago, and it is estimated that at least
500 of them have been forwarded to
the various Grand Trunk points.
Pennsylvania Gets Police.
BALTIMORE, Md, July 1S.-or-
ganizing an elaborate police force for
the protection of its property when
the threatened strike of its employees
begins, the Pennsylvania Railroad
company showed that 1t anticipated
a serious breach with its men, and
that pretty soon.
All day representatives OF the road
were engaged in recruiting special
policemen, and as fast as these were
sworn in they were assigned quarters
In downtown hotels. the capacity of
several OF which has become taxed
with the new guests. One hundred
and thirty-five men are quartered at
the Hotels Lexington and Raleigh.
At noon about $50 men had been
employed, and the number of Balti-
more men who win be enlisted under
the eompany's banner is expected to
exceed 200 When the strike comes
no one in Baltimore will venture to
say. but that It will be very soon,
probably within "a hours, is the opin-
ion of most OF those who claim any
familiarity with the employees side
of the controversy with the COM
pany.
