As the ship crossed the mountain

the intrepid aviators decided they

All through the night the men
attempted to find the trouble. An
occasional wisp of smoke indicated
that the cooling system was out of

terror. Sudden squalls of wind
rocked the ship. and rain blotted
out the twinkling lights below. The

Reports from the seven Indian
apolis railroad shops affected by strike
orders OF Chicago union authorities
show most of the men have quietly
complied with directions. In some
cases railway officials have reported
that several men. old in point of serv-
ice, have remained on the job.
At 10 o'clock 500 men walked quiet
ly from their work at the B~rightwood
shops Of the New York Centr i big
Four Railroad.
Beech Grove Shops Hit
Beech Grove shops of the Pig Four
reported a few of the men walked out
It 10 o'clock. The r~oundhouse OF the
Illinois Central Railroad lost two or
three men.
The indianapolis Union Railway
Company reported 124 employees had
left work. The company will m
ploy other men TO relieve the situa-
ton.
Other railroads affected by the or
der were the c.. I & w. the Peoria &
Eastern division OF the Big -Four.
Effect Not Feared
That the strike will have little effect
on the question Of food distribution Is
indicated by reports. Neither will the
twenty State institutions be hampered,
since all OF them are well supplied
with coal and food sufficient TO last
until the termination of the emer-
gency.
Fred B. Robinson, State purchasing
agent. announced all OF the institu-
tons are supplied with coal enough
to last until Aug. 1.
II is believed the public utilities
will suffer most in event the strike is
extended over a long period.
Dispatches from Indiana cities show
that approximately 5000 shop work
ers are affected. In Logansport there
are 1890 men employed. Other In
