TO THE ouTcoME-IocAI
CONDITIONS.

There was little Or no change in the
strike situation yesterday. The usual
Sunday quiet prevailed in the yards
and the traffic over the division was
little more than Iermal. 1t developed
yesterday, however, that the two strik-
ers who went to work for the railroad
company Saturday were not switch
mems union men as was at first re-
ported 1t seems that they are not
enrolled on the membership lists Of
the union. but We're among the men
working as switchmen who went out
with the union men. Regarding this
the union men makes a correction of
its Saturday statement as follows:
.Teh switchmen of Jumbo Lodge. No.
1sa of the Switchmen's Union of North
America wish to correct the statement
appearing in the papers of January f6.
The two deserters who joined the
strikebreaking ranks did not belong TO

TO make good. clean men and we hope
that the public will not think that we
have such men in Jumbo lodge
Relief Fund.
The desertion and arrest of George
Costigan. one of the strikers who went
back to work saturday brings to light
an Interesting bit of history regarding
the disposal OF the relief fund which
was received last week.
A check for 800 was received from
ST. Paul on Friday. When II was dis
tributed it was found that there was
just enough to give each man $40
When the money was distributed
seven of the men refused to accept
their share and asked that the money
be given to some of the more needy
ones. Costigan and the other man who
went to work Saturday and another
disseminated man were offered $50
apiece out of the remaining fund
Costigan accepted but the other two
men refused. costigan. of course
when he signed the receipt promised
not TO go to work and the matter was
dismissed. That night. however. Cos
tigan went on the rampage and the
next morning went to work with the
result that he was arrested.
Confident.
The switchmen are siill confident of
the outcome. Il look for settlement,
within week. said Secretary Jen-
ninEs yesterday. The railroad COM
panies I'm the east have been trying
70 get the swltchmen to go back to
work, but there Is nothing doing and
they are up against it. Unless there
is,a settlement pretty soon am sure
that the railway department of the
American Federation Of Labor will de-
clare a strike and then the railroads
viii be able to do nothing"
The local yards are clear and all
local freight is being handled prompt
