With the Large Mob of Strikers. * Employees “'lll Be Enjoined Froqufl'er- ving Physical Resistance or Obstruction to the Running of Trains Under the In- terstate Commerce Act—Regular Troops Sent to Trinidad, Calm—Militia Ordered to Blue Island, \Vhere the Strikers Have a field the Deputies at Bay—The \Vabash System Is Not Yet Tied Up—The lli'ail ‘ Service Badly Crippled—The Strike Situ- ation In‘M‘any Important Points.| CHICAGO, July 3. —Great loss of proper- ty for want of refrigerating and transpor- tation facilities is anticipated in the stock _yards. The scarcity of fruits, vegetables and milk is already _felt, and dealers are ‘ advancing prices to cover the increased ex- penses of handling these perishable classes of merchandise. The icemen have quad- rupled the regular rates to their customers on the limited supply at hand to cover in part the losses they sustain from the train- loads that stand melting on the sldetracks on almost every line. The large beef stor- age warehouses at the stockyards are crowded with enough dressed beef to sup; ply the city for many days if it can be kept from spoiling. If ice cannot beahad, the meat will spoil on the hooks. The slaughterers can get along without ice, but they must have coal, and their supply of coal is running low. A packer, speaking of the situation, said: “Unless the railroads get in shape to deliver us the coal that lies sidetracked on their lines the damage to the stocks of beef will be inestlmable by the end of the week. Most of the houses have only two or three days' supply of coal at hand to run their . refrigerating machines, and when that is gone it will not take long to do the dam- age. I hear that a strike is talked of among the packing house employees, but it looks to me as though a strike would not be necessary unless things get into better shape soon. ” , Sovereign “’ill Help. President Debs of the Railway union today received the following telegram from Grand Master ‘1 orkman Sovereign of the Knights of Labor: “Have I left anything undone? Am willing to call a general strike.’ The switching department of the Union» Stockyards and Transit company has thus far been able' to handle all the cars loaded with beef that the slaughterers have of- fered, but the railr’oads have not been able to take it out. on the delivery tracks of the roads, but not a load has been taken out since Friday night. The cars are well iced, but they are leaking badly and will not stand many days’ delay. The deficient coal supply is felt in many of the large office buildings. etc Union building at Clprk and Jackson streets, where business is only suspended in part on Sunday, only one elevator was running most of the day, the coal being reserved for the large dynamos and elec- ' trio light plant during the busy hours of the night. A car of coal consigned to the company and blockaded at Thirty- -first street was brought to Fourteenth street by horses. The stockyards were in a badly demer- alized condition today. The only paéker who was buying at all was Armour. The Stockyards Switching association has but one engine running, and of the 465 cars of stock held by the Burlington road but 260 were delivered. The packers know of no eastern outlet today for stock or" packers’ products, and no effort was made to move through trains. All ice doliv cries made yesterday and today were by wagon, A Clash at Blue Island. Rock Island railway officials and a squad of deputy marshals and sheriffs at the yards in Blue Island today began try- ing to lift the blockade in effect since Saturday noon. United States Marshal Arnold was in charge of 81 deputies, and Deputy Sheriff Frohn and a squad of men were prepared to aid the federal authorities in clearing a way for mail trains and preserving order. General Superintendent Dunlap, Assist- taut Nichols and Roadmaster Coulin were in charge of the forces of the road. The first move was toward clearing the Dun 11ng tracks that had been filled with pas- senger trains. Officers of the road went into conference with Mayor Zacharias of Blue Island, con§idering details of raising the blockade. Around the tracks and cars a large crowd of strikers gathered. The situation along the tracks quickly threatened to become dangerous. At- tempts on the part of the railway officers to move trains were combated by deter- mined resistance. . The strikers formed across the track and tried to place themselves in a position that would result in injury to themselves should the train be moved. About 100 marshals and deputy sheriffs; were lined along the tracks, but the strik— ers would not move. Deputy Marshal Logan . jumped» from a car and started to drive o- stubborn striker from the tracks." For a time the conflict was general. _Re- volvers were displayed on both sides, but no shots werefircd. The strikers succeeded for a time .in stopping the movements of trains. T strikers proved too much for- the more 51 and de’p‘utles. The marshal wueu for the' Fifteenth regiment from Fort Sheridan and asked help from Governor ' Altgeld. The Second regiment I. N. G. (the Hi- berian rules) was immediately ordered to Blue Island. ”In answer. to Uglted' States Marshal ;:.a~= More than 100 cars stand :Iiferent’ In the West» ‘ Al‘ilul‘.".s requesr. 101' re mar "United States army troops from Fort Sheridan, United’States Attorney Milchrist said he would send additional forces of United States deputy marshals with an injunc- tion order before calling for United States - troops. Village Police Officer McMillln. :who tried‘tb arrest the fireman of ‘thb stalled train for blocking the crossing, was ar- rested by Marshal Arnold for obstructing the mails. The marshals and deputies think-that the town officers, while promis- ing them support, are really in favor of the strikers. About 150 passengers are delayed at Blue Island and are unable to get water or food. The deputies are in the same position, and supplies have been sent for.‘ At Lansing, on the Illinois and Indiana state line, on the Panhandle road, the residents hotel keepers and restaurants absolutely refuse to furnish food under any consideration to deputy United States marshals. The Panhandle road has sent a force of men to Lansing to fit up a hotel for the headquarters of the marshals, and also sent out a carioad of provisions. Police Ready For Emergencies. The police today'were more on the alert than at any time since the strike began. At each of the larger police 'stations six companies composed of 150 menwere kept as a reserve. to carry the officers to any place an out- break might occur. In addition hundreds of policemen'wcro stationed at different points along the different railroad lines in the yards and along the tracks. Inspector Schaack said a riot might be precipitated at any moment.‘ Once started it would be difficult to even guess what the result Would be. Operations against the strikers began today with a conference between United States Judges Woods and Grosscup, Edwin Walker, special solicitor appointed yester-‘ day by Attorney General Olney, and Dis- trict Attorney Milehrist. The lawyers had a bulky typewritten bill,asking the federal courts to enjoin the strikers from interfer- ing With the mails. The bill was an omni- bus document, covering all the roads. It was submitted to the judges informally before it was filed, and discussion of its frame and prayer occupied the court for some time. Later Messrs. Walker and Milchrist, act- ing under instructionsfrom Attorney Gen- eral Olney, filed the bill in the federal court to enjoin the 'strikers from interfer- ing with the trains. \Vill This Stop the Strike? The bill was originall'y'drawn to enjoin the strikers from interfering with the malls, but was" modified under orders from Washington so as to. enjoin from in- terference with any train, this protection being. sought on the ground of the inter- state commerce act. the government bullding that the injunc- ’ tion issued under the bill will stop the strikepfor the whole power of the govern- ment can be called upon to enforce it. Judge Woods said the marshal will be ex- pected to enforce the order, and if he is unable to do so the troops of the United States can be called out. “It is not necessary,” said he, “to is- sue an injunction to prevent interference with the mails, for such interference is in itself a crime for which the guilty parties can be arrested and indicted. It is more necessary to issue a restraining order to prevent interference with interstate com merce. The only reason for issuing an or- der at all is that it is a means of meeting the present emergency, for the process of arrest and indictment is slow.” , ' As to the territory covered by the order, the judge said it applies to the state of Illinois, the seat of the trouble, and can be entered in the courts of Indiana and Wisconsin and thus be made to apply to those states. The men arrested for any violation of the injunction will be brought before the court for contempt, and if nec- essary imprisoned. Sheriff Gilbert had piled up in his pri- vate office at the courthouse today 200 Springfield army rifles and 4, 000 rounds of ' ammunition, which had just been sent from Springfield by Governor Altgeld.‘ The sheriff swore in extra men to bear these arms. The new recruits were sent out to relieve the regular—deputies andtho bailiffs, all of whom have been on duty f01 several days. So many of the sherifl’s employ, including deputies and court bail- iffs, had been sent out to guard railroad property that the regular business of the allies was almost suspended. Chief of Police Brennan bad calls from the General Managers’ association today for men to be sent to the Eastern Illinois crossing at Thirty-sixth street_a11d for the Lake Shore road at Root street. Theda- tails were promptly made, as requested. Studebaker \Van ts Arbitration. Mr. P. E. Studebaker, the South Bend manufacturer, was'seen- regarding his in- terview with President Debs and Vice President Howard. He said: “It is not true that in that conference I represented either Mr. Pullman or the railroad companies. I talked over the situation. with them merely as a private citizen, forI think that this strike has gone too far already, and that in the in- terest of innocent sufferers and the com- munity generally it should be stopped. " “-Do you expect to see Mr. Pullman to. 'morrch?” he was asked. “No, hardly. 'But be that as it may this strike should be stopped. 'Our con- feronce was entirely informal. The two gentlemen I spoke of received me pleas- antly,’ and We talked over the relations of capital. and labor. and over the situation generally. “Was your conversation. along the line of a compromise?” “We talked it over in a general way: It seemed to me that the demands of Mr. -, Pullman s employees were not altogether irrational, and that if he would consent to arbitrate certain minor complaints, of which they spoke, and the old scale of wages they would let up on the boycott. This does not appear unreasonable. I am going to see them again. -Mind, :1 am act- ing merely in my capacity of a private citizen. . aflair. ” The Chicago, Milwaukco.and St. Pa .11 men, linemen and all, held a meeting at Miehlcs’ hall and decided to strike 111011ch It was rc'solvcd that while they Yould not strike as Brotherhood men they would go out as individuals. Patrol wagons were on hand. against the United States. It was believed at" I am not authorized to represent" _ any one except myself, and I have had no , _confercnce with either Mr. Pullman or any of the railroad people engaged in the Vorwalk, Conn..

Since my return from Chicago last November, I have used Mellin' 3 Food with the same, certainty and success in the Virginia Day "Nursery for feeding “the many babies that are brought here' everyday. These babies are as a. rule the children of the poorest people in New’York City and when. brought here are, almost without exception, weak, sickly and unhealthy, having never been properly fed or sufficiently nour- ished. After they have been fed on Mellin's Food here at. the Nursery, they soon develop into sound, healthy babies. I feel it my duty to make known to all who are carrying the responsibility of the health, yes, the lives of these littlepones, whether in Day Nurseries or in their own homes, that. I have found that Mellin's, Food will nourish, strengthen and sustain the babies fed with it. .Sincerely yours, sewer -" " TO CLEAN OUT___'___..- A D- ENDS!
