Letter to President of Black

Considerable Trouble Meeting
Requirements of Law-Use
Stock Cars for Merchandise.
The controversy between the
Rock Island road and the system
federation of shopmen on that
line is still unsettled. Officials OF
the road were out of town yester-
day when the federation leaders
called at the offices, and nothing
definite will be done until a con-
ference next week. At that time
the federation men will attempt
to reach an amicable settlement,
with the road, but if the road re-
fuses to yield the demands of the
men strike is probable.

by President J. N. Kline, of the

They have also resorted to the
loading of stock cars with ship
ments of merchandise that they
may use the box cars for grain.
And every engine that comes in
is leaking badly and pounding. I
may say they are generally ruin
down.
If we had little cold weather
and snow, they could not get a
train out of Chicago, and the
trains that come in are ten to fif-
teen hours late. The machines
in the shops are all idle and rusty;
the forges quiet and not a sound
of hammer can be heard in the
boiler shop.
The strikebreakers come and
go. They are hustling from shell
