Harriman EmpIoyes Strike.

Chicago, Sept, 3O-The threat
ened strike the shOpmen on the
Hartman lines to enforce recogni
ton of their newly organized fedora
ton became reality today. The
number of men who quit in the
Is states affected were estimated
at between 10000 and 10000 men,
Julius Kruittschnitt, vice
president of the Hartman lines, to-
night said the number was much
smaller. Reports from most of the
points indicated that the men walk
ed out without demonstrations and
no rioting was reported Traffic
was continued without interference
and the railroad heads say that
the shopmen's strike, even if ex-
tended, would not interfere with
the transportation.

FILE AN INJUNCTION
SUIT
Black Canyon Irrigation Dis
trict, Plaintiff; Idaho
Northern, Defendant

As a result of an injunction suit
filed in the Boise county district
court last week by the Black
Canyon Irrigation district, the Ida
no Northern railway will have. to
abandon its present right of way
from a few, miles the other side of
Horseshoe Bend to the proposed
site OF the BLACK Canyon dam on
the Pavette river and move 48
feet west.
The action was based upon the
Black Canyons contention that the
railroad company was occupying
the right CT way filed upon for
ithe Black Canyon canal for a dis
tance of six miles. The forces
of three ontraCtors-Brown and
Puckett, Smith and Hanley-had
been working on this stretch of roac
grading for oven two months and
large amount o: work had been
done upon it. This will be- total
loss. By the order of the court, the
railway company must move its
right of way at least AS feet
farther west This will throw it
into the hills and make the con-
struticn much more difficult and
heavier.
The railway company is also hav-
ing right of way difficulties near
Smiths Ferry, ard work at the
McNutt camp has been suspended
until the trouble is settled. At
that point it is claimed the rail-
road is occupying ground to which
it has no title.
