From people arriving here from
Austin since the ARRAY 1t is learned
that trouble between Abitua, sheep
man, and Lander County cattlemen,
has been brewing since the recent
World War. Abitua is said to have
failed to complete his citizenship
papers, and when this was learned
cattlemen are alleged to have en-
tered complaint with the Forest Re-
serve asking that Abitua's permit be
revoked. This action was taken.
and since that time Abitua has not
been allowed to run his sheep on
the Forest Reserve. This caused
considerable feeling and is thought
to have finally led up to the fatal
shooting.

Statement ISSUED
BY PENNSY RAILWAY
Relative To Shopmen's Strike
As 1t Affects The Penn
sylvania System

The following statement regarding
the shopmen's strike, as 1t affects the
pennsylvania railroad, was issued to-

ic Walsh of the Mt Vernon shops
THE most favorable situation that
mas existed on the Pennsylvania sys-
TEN at any time since the shupmen's
strike began on July 1 was disclosed
in today's report from all regions of
The system.
Consistent and satisfactory gains
were shown in the forces of every re-
gion. The total number of shopmen
actually working on the entire sys.
TEN is 42S36, an increase of 1851 over
a week ago. An average weekly force
would be approximately $4,000.
"rhe eastern region and the AL
toona works combined have made a
net gain, as compared with a week
ago, Of 42O men, actually working;
the central region has gained TAG men,
the northwestern region 351, and the
southwestern 354 men.
"The movement OF freight during
the week just ended was the heaviest
that has been handled ON the Penn
sylvania system since the closing
week in March last, when local traf-
tic was abnormally high in anticipa-
ton of the suspension in mining.
The total number of freight cars dis.
patched last week was 754,872, and
this total would have been consider.
ably larger but for the fact that the
current movement of coal is only ap-
proximately one-third of normal
"From The point of on-time per-
formance, the freight movement last
week was practically 100 per cent
perfect.
"Promptness of dispatching was
considerably above normal and un-
usually good records were made in
the return of empty refrigerator and
stock cars in order that the transpOr-
tation of food supplies could be main
tanned uninterruptedly.
Normal on-time performance was
maintained in passenger service in all
portions of the system. At no time
since the strike began has any train
movement either passenger or freight
been cancelled or interfered with by
any developments connected with the
