Two of the Santa FEES Chicago-to-
Los Angeles trains were held in the
yards here last night, NARROWING prob
| ably 200 passengers, and it was said
| that part of No. 8, at least, would
not go beyond Albuquerque when the
train arrived at 1880 o'clock this
morning. as the result of the strike
| in Los Angeles.
The westbound California Limited,
which reached here at 11:45 o'clock in
| the morning, and No. /, which arrived
at 1880 at night, were still standing in
| front of the station at midnight and
no one knew when it was likely they
would be able to proceed. AS far
as could be learned it was ordered
! that they be held until further adj
| vice was received. There was no
! indication whether or not it was eN-
| pected to move them before the set
| tlement of the strike.
| Part of No. 8, due here at 1:3s
! O'Clock this morning, will remain here,
but it was not known whether later
I trains coming from the east would be
stopped 1t was said that stub No.
. would be sent out on time, taking
part of the incoming trains equip
ment and that mail would be carried
as far as Needles, Cal.
The marroned passengers made the
most of their enforced delay, dancing
| on the lawn in front of the Alvarado
hotel visiting the motion picture
| he uses and strolling about the streets
tc allay the tediousness of their UNI
cXpectedly lengthy visit
Only one train from the west
reached here--No. 2. All other east
| bound trains were bulletined as IAN
nulled," but a stub No. s was sent out
| last night and it was said that a STUB
No. 10 would be started from here
| this morning, as the regular train was
! expected to be annulled stub trains,
| leaving on No. los and No. SIS time,
| probably will be made up daily until
the strike is settled.
No. T., the mail and express, was
! held in the yards for two hours The
train was ordered held soon after its
arrival from the east at 10:45 a. mo
| but later another order came, direct
! ing that it go ahead doing the local
work" west of Albuquerque The train
departed at $3.50.
information received from points
on the coast lines as far west as VIII
| liams, Ariz., was to the effect that the
| strike has not spread that far east,
although it's effects were being felt.
Train No. 8, which left here at 2:SO
o'clock tuesday morning, was being
held at Winslow, Ariz., late Tuesday
afternoon. No trains were running
} out of Williams, except on the Grand
/ Canyon branch. Many tourists were
tied up, both at Williams and the
CANYON Passengers from Tucson,
Phoenix and Prescott were being held
at Ash Fork.
The electrict light plant at Williams
| had only a ten days supply of fuel
oil on hand and unless traffic is re-
sumed by the expiration of that time,
! it will be necessary to shut the plant
down. The food situation was said to
be favorable, except that there is a
shortage of butter, eggs and fruit.
