Dor Trouble in Chicago
Expected
MEDIATORS BRINGING
ABOUT A MODERATION

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1S.-If the
hope of the government mediators that
the threatened strike of the switchmen
on the railroads entering Chicago will
be averted by means OF arbitration is
fulfilled, those then will bc in very
much better shape than their striking
colleagues at st. Paul.
Practically the same issues-wages,
hours OF labor, and conditions of work
were involved in that case, but there
both mediation and arbitration failed.
Appeals was made 10 the govern
ment mediators, Interstate Commerce
Commissioner Knapp and Commits
sioner of Labor Neil TO mediate and
they started for St Paul Both the
switchmen and the railroads Joined
i'm the appeal, but while the media
tors were on the train the men struck.
The only question was as TO whether
the case could be arbitrated but. be-
lieving that the switchmen had not
acted fairly either towards them or
the mediators the railroads have re-
solutely refused TO agree TO arbitra-
ton and have been filling the places
Of the strikers. The result is that
about $500 men lost their Jobs.
IL ID Itlldlilf ntdu OF the railway
department Of the American Fedora
tion Of Labor came here and tried
without success TO find in conjunction
with the mediators a way out Of the
trouble. At the present me II Is de-
clared here hat the strike has beer
won by the railroads.
In the case OF the Chicago switchmen
the matter was allowed 70 go through tn,
orderly course Of procedure outlined lr
tho Brdmann act The mediators wer,
first resorted TO and as a result of the con.
ferences, they have had here with repre-
sentatives OF both side, mpderation of
views has been expressed and a happy so
luton of the difficulty without strike IL
expected.
Labor troubles have been occunsseg tn,
attention Of mediators almos' ly fo
the last two or three weeks. Through thei
efforts the troubles Of the telographors oi
the Illinois Central r. r. have been sub
mitted to arbitration the third membo
of the board being selected by them. TIL

being held to-day Under the terms Of th

LONDON. Jan dissatisfaction in

among the Conservatives and actual
jubilation among the Irish Nationalists
is the political situation in England
to-day. As the result of Saturdays

The Irish Nationalists are holding
their own, which means that they will
have about the. same representation in
the next Parliament as in tho last. s3.

members will be i'm a position TO en-

election is going
In addition to the eight unopposed
irish Nationalists elections to-day
there was one Conservative returned
