Trains continue TO run late in this section
Of the country. and summing up the situation
ss whole. not much business is being done.
Furthermore. the company is having a great
deal of trouble in handling the small amount
OF business that it docs get. The scab gen.

The company is as bad off here a. ever. The
many delays and failures are giving the seabs
run for their money and are the cause OF
much worry to the officials. Engine sll drop

Supt. Of Machinery r. w. Bell was in town

This was the switch engine which has been
performing stunts here. but when she was be-

The defective motive power was the cause
of an acciden, here in the yards last week.
IN which Engineer w. S. Noyes was killed.
One Frank Walker. driver for circus, was
injured when he was knocked from the top
OF one OF the circus cars which were being
switched. One Geo. L. Bowers. circus man.
also was injured in the wreck. Engineer
Noye, was running : switch engines in the
yards. and his engine collided with the circus
train which was about to leave the yards.
The air brakes on the engine Noyes was
running failed completely when he applied
them to bring his engine to = standstill. The
result was that his engine ran into the circus
train and he was jammed in the wreekage.
dying later of his injuries Many Of the en-
gines are running out OF here with defective
brakes and it is q miracle that more people
are not killed and injured. Engine failures
are many and serious, and you can take it
from the bunch here that they are stiekers
until the last dog is hung.

Nothing OF an exciting nature has developed
here OF late. Not much work can be done
with the outfit employed here. One Fred
Elliott. timer is doing the scab act here
He has been here about six months. He
worked here for some time before the strike
and is we'll known by timers throughout the
country. He is a small stubby seAb and has
a large long woman He is now Beany
Burke's right hand man in the tin shop.
One Hank Wyman. a passenger engineer
on the Freeport district. who has been play
ing the fiddle for the company since the strike.
is one of the loyal hosgers who is doing all
the work on his engine that he can do. He
is also telling around how well he is pleased
with the scab workmanship that is done for
him. The company is moving very little freight
through here. and passenger coaches are COM
ing through empty. Several small derailments
have taken place out of here. and the scabs
are doing the movement no harm, as they
can accomplish nothing.

The war is on here with as much intensity
as ever. The biggest part of the business out
of here consists of running bad order cars out
OF town. We are informed that some OF them
are being taken to Waterloo for treatment.
but IL such is the case We feel sure that they
will be run out OF there in the same condition
as when run out Of here. Advertisements for
car repairers are being run in the newspapers,
but as this has been done ever since the in
ception of the strike. We take them as joke.
All car repairers are we'll acquainted with the
TACT that there is 4 strike on. and il they are
successful in getting . few recruits from the
sticks, they will do US more good than harm.
We have another traitor to the cause here
in the person OF Peter Christisen. He was
with the Burlington railroad for Is years. Be-
fore the strike he was discharged for fighting
bug juice and later went scabbing on the
Union Pacific. and as he desired another
change he came over to do the act on the
Illinois Central. We can only say for the
situation here that it surely looks as If the
Old Hog is on her last pins in this part Of
the country.
