By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The nationwide railroad strike ap
parently has collapsed. Except in
few isolated sections railroad official
reported Sunday night the bulk of tn
l., men who followed the leadership of Poh
Grunau, a Chicago trainman. had returne'
to work. Normal passenger service wa
virtually restored, they said, while sub
stantial progress had been made in NOV
ing the vast amount of freight that ha
been accommodating throughout the coun
try, especially in the cast, during tn
last three weeks.
Many of the strikers went out Withou
presenting any grievances and later an
noupccd that failure to receive increases
/. in wakes granted to other railroad me,
prompted their action. The strikers
who acted in defiance Of their railroad
brotherhood chiefs, have generally re
more pay.
Board To Consider Demands
In many cases, however, they have
been assured their demands will be pre-.
sented to President Wilson's labor board
which is empowered under the fedora
Transportation act to settle disputes
between the railroads and their men
The board is now sitting in Washington
In Chicago. the original strike center
railroad officials reported the strike
had lost its effectiveness.
In the New York district it was ap-
parent that most Of the strikers, whose
numbers were variously estimated from
1000 to 10000. had returned. Two
which carry thousands Of commuters
into New York daily, from northern
New Jersey points, were the only united
and important holdouts. The tubes have
been closed to passenger traffic since
the men walked out on April 8.
Recruit Factory Men
In Detroit an attempt will be made to
resume switching operations with vol
untepr crews recruited from the ranks
Of idle factory workers. In Cleveland
the local freight terminals. with the
exception of the New York Central
CollinwOod yards and the Erie railroad
were still tied up. but passenger service
through the Union station was normal.
The return of several hundred strik-
ing Baltimore 4 Ohio trainmen of the
Connclsville Pittsburgh division is ex-
pected to mark general resumption OF
freight service in that district. A few
Pittsburgh terminal men are still out.
Virtually normal conditions We're re-
ported in the Buffalo. Toledo and Phila
delphia districts. where a majority Of
the strikers had already returned to
work Strenuous eforts were made to
break up the strike in Columbus, Ohio.
Hits Many Industries
The principal effect Of the strike thus
far has been the closing Of many indus
tries because of their inability to obtain
coal. raw materials and freight~cars to
move their products. One hundred thou
sand men were reported idle in the De-
troit district, similar number in the
state Of Ohio and $4,000 in the Connels-
vile coke region. with many thousand
others out Of work in other sections Of
the country.
