KEITIIKH SIDK WILL OIVK IX.

Chicago, Jnno 25.—"Ooneral obnoxlousness" is the main feature of the charges made against E. O. Russell, superintendent of northern lines for the Illinois Contral by the omployos of that road. Because ho is obnoxious to thorn thoy want him discharged, and because hols uot discharged tlio Illinois Contral from Chicago to Cairo is tied up. "Our employes liavo struck to compel the dischargo of Mr. Russell," said General Manager Heck. "Wo have asked them to resume work, at least so far as tlio suburban service isconcernod, ponding an investigation of the charges they have made against him. This thoy refuse to do. It is a matter of principlo with us. Wo aro going to the bottom of the cliargos. If wo find cause tor discharging Mr. Russell wo will do it. If not, wo shall not dischargo him. If theythen refuse to go to work we shall do what wo can to resume trafllc without them."

The strikers'' ultimatum is the discharge of Russell. Trainmen, switch men, ongineers and firemen, upward of a thousand in number, say thoy will not work for the road while Mr. Ruiioll is an official of it. Thoy claim that tho feeling against him is universal, and that tho men in the shops and thoso at the dopot, and evon many of tho clerks in tho offices, will go out to help tlioni got rid of Russell.

Tho immediate causoof tho strike was tho resignation of Trainmaster Oliver Horry and Assistant Trainmastor J. E. Pushie. These two men resigned because thoy undorstood from some source that Superintendent Russell intonded to discharge them the first of tho month. When the fact of their resignation became known the men under them Struck, demanding their reinstatement and tho dischargo of Russell. The company was willing to reinstate Berry and Pushie, but would not dischargo Russoll or oven suspend him without an investigation.

Tho strike has assumed serious proportions, inasmuch as it now involves the immense suburban traffic of tho road. A meeting of the strikers was held at which the men decided to stop tho running of all trains except those carrying the United States mail. Accordingly, as fast as tho suburban trains came in yesterday thoy woro side-tracked, and it was not long boforo the tracks woro completely blockol up. suburban trains, freight trains and through and way passenger trains being mixed, in almost lnoxtricablo confusion. Tho last suburban trai n-tusviwul at tho dopot at 8:30. a. m., and the men announcod that would be tho last suburban train to come in or go out until tho quostion as to Superintendent Russell's retention was decided one way or the othor. At presont tho striko affects the readonly from Chicago to Kankakee, but tho men say that unless they gain their point they will tie up the ontiro system—Chicago to Now Orleans.

Tho strikers also endeavorod to show that they do not wish to interfere with the United States mails, the express companies, and bonded mattor. They therefore attached tho mail and express cars to the Cngine of tho New Orleans mail train, but loft the coaches with their exasperated passengers unconnected.

The financial loss will be felt by tho company. It is in connection with tho freight business that the trouble will bo felt keenly. The tie-up prevents thousands of people from getting tho products of the market that they arc so depondent upon. Tho yards in tho city are already filled with cars, and tho stalling of train: now In transit will crowd every transfer track touchod by tho road.

Tho tio-up on the Illinois Central, coming just at this time, will prove a disastor to tho general public. It is a local misfortune, but not less a misfortune to people over tho West, in many parts of Illinois and in Southern States. Tho suburban traffic of tho road is enormous. The trains run in and out of tho city ovory few minutes from 5 o'clock in tho morning until midnight and aro usually orowded. All thoso people are now thrown upon thoir own resources for transportation, and if tho striko continues any length of tsrao will bo forced to build up omnibus lines to carry them to other railroads. Hut it is not this that will trouble the commercial world. To stop freight traffic, on tho Illinois Central means to prevent thousands and thousands of pooplo in

Northern Iowa, in Southern Illinois, in Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana from getting products to market. The ain this city aro already filled with freight cars, and tho stalling of the trains row In transit Will jam overy transfer track touchod by tho road. Tho Illinois Central has been running passenger trains over its lines and directly connecting lines to all points in central and southern Illinois Jackson, Miss. Now OrloftDS, Free port, Dubuque, la., Waterloo, la. Sioux Tails. l)ak., and Cincinnati.
