1t was stated Thursday on good au-
thority that the Few engines which

Maine Central were all completed and
were being brought to Portland to re-
ceive the tuning up process prepara-
tory to actual work on the road and
that they might be expected to come
through here at any time. They are Of
what Is called the Mikado type and are
like the 6o1 class freight engines ex-
cept that the wheels are much larg-
er. They will be used on the heavy
and fast passenger tranis which it is
now frequently necessary to run in two
sections and which the taking off of
trains during the summer will more
than ever crowd the regular runs and
make the work harder for the road un-
less more cars can be hauled in each

wild RunorS of Carloads
of Strike=BreakerS Coming
TO Wateryille on Thursday

When the O'Clock train came IN from
the west it was the same story over asai"
and then the time was set forward 10 'he
9 o'clock trains at night, but they came
and went and still no strike breakers.
There were a few people about the trains
hut the number was not large and 1t
felt certain that even if the strike break
ers had arrived there would have been
no trouble, for in the crowd were ho-
ticed two or three of the prominent strlk-
ers who have declared that II there was
any attempt at making trouble by the
strikers they would Immediately go PACK
to work. According to all the lnforma-
ton available the trouble at the \orln
End Wednesday night was not partlcl-
pated in by any of the strikers, ana IL
is even claimed by some of them that
the whole affair was engineered by the
railroad to turn sympathy from the strlk-
ers, where it certainly now is. There
was said to be a renewal Of the demon
strations of Thursday evening and as
part of them were directed against
man who is known to be friend OF the
men out on strike. the strikers rolnt out
that it looks very peculiar that their
friends should be attacked. II was re-
ported Thursday that one of the promi-
nent men who has been employed at the
shops and who, on account Of his posi-
ton. was not member of the unicn ana
was not expected by the union men 10
quit, had done so and said he would not
go back until the men went back. we
are growing stronger than ever said
one of the leaders, "and there is no rea-
son to believe that we are going to do
ANYTHING to make the people take sides
against us. and il there is anything done
it will be by outsiders, you may rest as
sured.'
