Des Moines. Aug. 24.-The chances
OF settlement of the car strike now
hinge on probable action that Fed
eral Judge Martin u. Wade will take
when he arrives In Des Moines We'd
nesday. Wired appeals from both
the street car men and the company
officials brought a brief order from
Judge Wade, but failed to deter the
action OF the men, who are demand
ing $4,000 back pay in CASH..
There was no excitement when the
men left the car barns at o'clock
this morning, and there has been no
court order yesterday, It was ex-
pressly stated that there would be
no strike -breakers.
State fair officials announced this
afternoon that special arrangements
had been made with the c. r. g. P.
Company whereby passengers on
that line will be able to get off at
the fairgrounds without going into
Des Moines. This will minimize the
Inconvenience to visitors from state
points caused by the strike Of Des
Molnes car men,
The railroad company has also ar
ranged to run special trains from
Des Moines out to the fairgrounds
at frequent intervals. This service,
together with the fact that many Of
biles, is expected to insure a record
attendance at the fair.
