Mail Clerks Strike
May Be Adjusted if
Men Waive Rights
Nothing Done So Far to Indicate Set
tlement, but congressman Have
Taken Matter Up.

PIERRE. S. D.. Jan. 2O.-(Special Tele-
gram while the mail clerk strike situa-
tion this morning on the surface is not
improved to any extent. it is showing signs
of reaching an adjustment
Several of the old clerks have been sus-
pended and called upon to surrender their
badges and keys, and substitutes have been
secured. To do this it was necessary to
go east on the Mississippi river for men, as
the clerks at Aberdeen, Hawarden and St
Paul refused to supplant. The clerks were
refusing to do extra duty, but the indi
cations are now that congressman over the
northwest are taking up the matter with
the department, and an intimation has
come to the clerks that il they will waive
their rights in the interest of discipline of
the service, their troubles will soon be
remedied
While this intimation has come to them,
up to the present no definite action has
been taken in the premises, and their
position up to the present is that they will
not ccncede anything unless the reinstate-
ment of all clerks suspended as a result
of the present trouble is included in the
question of adjustment.
HURON, $. D., Jan. D.-In compliance
with request from Senator Crawford, the
SlTiklnB runway Hldll CleThb On lue INoIlu-
western railroad between Tracy, Mimi,
and Pierre. s. D., held a conference here
and signifled their willingness to return
to work and perform the extra duty re-
quired pending consideration of their
grievances by the Postoffice department at
Washington. This action will defer a gen
eral walkout by railway clerks over the
northwest. The clerks declare that unless
their demands for extra pay for extra labor
is granted a general strike VIII follow. The
only organization the clerks now have is
Of social character, but steps are being
taken 10 organize similar to other labor
unions. Senator Crawford says he has
been assured by the department that the
clerks will have hearing soon.
ST PAUL, Jan. 2O-That a wholesale re-
tirement from the railway mail service by
the railway mail clerks of St. Paul and
Minneapolis is probable is indicated in a
series Of resolutions adopted by the Rail
way Mail Clerks association OF the Twin
fCities and made public today. These resolu-
tionss which will be sent to the postmaster
general and several members of congress
state that present conditions in the service
are unbearabe owing to the policy OF re-
trenchment inauguated by the Postoffic'
department at Washington
The action OF the clerks is a violation OF
a rule OF the department, but they declare
the situation warrants a disregard Of the
/ rule

day was marked change from the fever
ish atmosphere that has filled the Ieglsla-

Interest in the contest for United States
senatorship lay mainly outside of the as
sembly chamber, where both branches Of
the legislature meet at noon for their third
joint ballot.
The general belief was that there would
be no break toward any one candidate
until next week Speaker Frisbie OF the
assembly said this understanding pre-
vailed when thirty or more members Of
both houses got leave to go home until
Monday.
1t was expected that other legislators

owing to this absenteeism the result Of
today's ballot promised to show a reduc-
ton OF fifteen votes or more in the total
for William r. Sheehan, but since the alb

required for election the actual significance
