SEPARATE STRIKE AGREEMENT
Communication From Byram Says Plenty of
Work for ALI; Thinks Seniority Problem
May Be Adjusted.

The communication, addressed to
CAN bulletin boards, all striking en-
ployes of the c., NJ. & st. p. Ry. Co.,"
follows in full:
efforts of the chiefs of the five
train service brotherhoods to settle the
shopmen's strike by negotiations IN
New Yorw have failed, although every
possible concession was made on me
part of the group of railroads when
participated. | have explained per-
%sonally the entire details OF the nego-
tiations, including proposed terms Tor
settlement, to the general chalrmen OF
the organizations involved in the T.,
NJ. & st. P. Ry. Owing to the heavy
business in sight, there is plenty OF
work for all the employees now IN serv-
ice, in addition to those now on strike
and we believe that an adjustment OF
the ouly unsettled question in connec-
tion with the strike, the seniority ques-
tion. could be reached satisfactorily II
it were possible for our employees now
On strike to make an individual settle
ment with the officers of u COM
many. but so far this has been impos-
sible. because the leaders of the strike
are unwilling to permit settlement on
Individual railroads.
Unjust to Both Sides
ct seems to us that to have the
strike continue on this account is most
unjust TO both the striking employees
and the railway company. We DO not
believe the strike should be continued
on this railroad because you are unable
to settle your differences on other
railroads, and ] suggest to those OF you
who would like to go to work and who
NAV NOT understand what is preventing
Il that Won make your wishes known to
the local or general chairman of your
oroanization on this railroad for the
purpose of being freed from these re-
strictions that we believe are now pre-
venting a settlement of the strike on

Thousands Killed
in Downtown Riot:
Left in Own Tracks

Thousands were killed and hundreds
were fatally injured in Great Falls
Wednesday night, when a riot broke
out al Fourth street and Central ave-
nue. between 7:30 and 8 o'clock. All
four of the brightly lighted corners at
Fourth and Central were strewn with
dead bodies during the early hours of
the evening.
There was no call for ambulances.
no riot call, no response by the police
no medical aid. The dead remained
where they fell and the dying were
left to their own limited resources to
crawl to some obscure corner, there to
breathe their last.
Observers saw unusual sights-sim-
pie, foolish creatures, victims of the
slaughter, thoughtlessly dashing out
their brains against sturdy electroliers
and falling to the pavement, dead.
Others dove to their death against
brightly illuminated plate glass win
dows. Some of them, it appeared
dashed themselves to pieces in mad
scrambles to break through jewelry
store windows, as if in quest of jewels.
Here and there one of the poor
things would collide with a delicate,
silk-clad ankle and fall, MORALLY
wounded, to the sidewalk.
They were moths-small. white
winged moths; their first night in the
city. They were born one minute and
destined to die the next because of
their ignorance and passion for gay
colors and bright lights. SO, between
the gay and attractive colors of wom-
ems dress and the bright incandescents
of Central avenue, they played the
game of the moth and the flame-and
lost.
