Chicago, July 5.-Railroad shop
men now on strike, are able to stand
on their own feet, Bert NJ. Jewell,
union chief, declared today.
Refusal of the maintenance of way
workers to strike has strengthened
the position of the shop men, who
are now out, rather than weakened
it, Jewell said.
I'VE would rather settle this af-
fair with the railroads ourselves
than draw other unions into the con
troversy," he said. I'VE never urged
the other union chiefs to call
strike.
"The shop mems strike will never
be settled on terms which the main
tenance of way men accepted"
Jewell was elated over big batch
of kilograms on his desk telling of
oilers, signal men, and maintenance
of way men and foremen going out
, on unauthorized strikes in sympathy
with the shop men.
Jewell had one telegram, he said,
from Roanoke, Va, which he said
stated that train service on one line
out of there was completely tied up
through lack of engines in service.
"The men are sticking" Jewell
said, "and | am convinced they are
more determined to see this strike
through to finish as a result of
recent announcements by the labor
board"
Strike Breakers Pour In.
Jewell was plainly satisfied with
the progress of the strike. He looks
for long drawn out strike, holding
to his prediction that it would be-

cial interests" to bring about the

w Hooper, chairman of the board
Hooper in letter to Bert NJ
jewell, union chief, said that such a
claim was a grave injustice"
The letter was made public as
Jewell announced failure of the
maintenance of way workers to
strike would strengthen the shop
men in their walkout; that the shop
mems strike was gaining daily, and
that the shop crafts would not make
peace on the same terms to which
the maintenance of way workers
agreed.

Dublin, July 5.-IIemmed i'll by an
inferno of flame, with guns OF the
free state sending shell after shell to
spread the destruction along Sack
vile street, the last outstanding llght
band of rebels was at the point OF
surrender this afternoon.
The entire block held by the ex-
tremists was a mass Of fire. From
a vantage point | could see that the
flames had attacked every building
from which rebel fire still came at
intervals.
The rebellion of Rory O'Connor was
near its end.
Before nightfall the raging flames
must drive the insurgents on to the
payonets of free state troops.
The rebels changed their headquar'
ters. The Hammam Hotel became a
roaring furnace and they moved to
the Granville, next door. Still a rat
tle of rifle fire came from within the
ring of fire.
