STRIKE BLOCKS POTATOES
Railroad Cant Carry Maine
Crop to Shipping Points.

Augusta. Me, Jan. N.--Business inter-
ests affected by the strike of engineer.
and nrcmen on the Bangor & Aroostook
Railroad appealed TO the Legislature to-
day TO use its influence toward arbtra-
tion.
T. l.. Cleveland. president Of tho Aroos-
stoke Potato Shippers Association. said
that unless the freight traffic was re-
sumed Immediately wholesale cancells-
ton OF orders from the South for seed
potatoes would result. entailing heavy
financial loss TO farmers and shippers.
Operations OF the freight steamers
which carry print paper and potatoes
from Stockton TO New York will soon
cease. as no shipments are being received
AT the former port.
Both sides remain firm the railroad de-
voting its efforts to the movement OF pas
senger trains with non-union engine
crews. in which respect it has been fair
" successful.
