IlrrFAi.o, X. Y., Aug. 2.ri.—The swituhmen's strike Is ended. It was declared otT t\y lirand Master Sweeney at midnight Wednesday night after an extended consultation with a duly authorized committee. The result could not have been otherwise. Messrs. Sargent, Wilkinson and Clarke, heads of .the firemen's, trainmen's and conductors' organizations, at the conference held Wednesday afternoon positively refused to take auy hand in the trouble, saying that their men had no grievances. This killed ull hope of further resistance. As Mr. Sweeney put it, 515 switchmen could not fight 8.000 militia und the combined forces of seven railroad corporations.

When the uf'ernoon conference ended Mr. Sweeney loft the Broe/.el hotel by a back stairway and was driven to the. strikers' headquarters, where he communicated the unwelcome news to the anxious ami waiting men. Hitter and denunciatory words were uttered regarding tho attitude assumed by the representatives of their eolnborers, but when the flery ones advocated the continuance of the strike the cooler heads saw that all was lost.

HriichtHt a Decision.

A meeting of the executive committee of the local switchmen's union was called for 8 o'clock in Mr. Sweeney's room at the flenescc house. Five members of the committee, headed bv Local Master Morlarity. tiled into the room, und until 11:15 o'clock discussed the. situation. Messencer were kept busy, and at least a dozen telegrams were sent and delivered. At 10 o'clockMr. Moriarty announced that everything depended on the receipt of an Important message. It came at 11 o'clock and twenty minutes later the door, the keyhole of which

You need not ask any questions," said Mr. Sweeney, "because I shall not answer them. I will justiniike a short statement to you. It Is tills:

A conclusion has been reached by this duly authorized committee, whoso names I, of course, shall not give you. Thev have decided to end tills trouble ami I have sanctioned the oction they have taken. Five hundred and tlfteon strikers cannot fight 8.000 militia and tho. combined forces of seven railroad organizations. The strike will be called otV. I believe this is tho sensible course to pursue. That Is all. will say, however, that I believe we had an honest cause if ever men had.'

"Mr. Sweeney," asked a correspond ent, "do you think the failure of this strike will result in the federation of the various organized bodies of rail road employes?" "1 have nothing' lo nay on that sub jeet" "WUlyou issue a formal order telling the switchmen the strike is otV? "The workings of our organization ore secret." "Do you think the railroads will reemploy tho strikers?" "That Is a question for the roads to answer but I will say that they cannot tfet a belter body of men." "In conclusion." said Mr. Sweeney. "I hope you will jjive us credit fur having made a fjood square fipht. but tin odds were against us."

it," !t is likely that only half of the strikers will secure work. The Lackawanna men will nil hi* takeu back, those on the ButYalo, Rochester A* Pittsburgh will be equally lucky, but tin former employes of tin? New York Central will have to Und work elsewhere. Vice President Webb said last week that his road never discharged a man who took the phi of a striker. The same rule applies to tho Lake Shore. The HulValo Creek Lehigh will in all probability reinstate some of the strikers und ao may the Nickel-Plate. When the news of Grand Master Sweeney's action reached Oen.

Porter, who replied that it was too late at night to issue any orders for the withdrawal of the troops, but that orders would be issued and the homeward movement of troops begun. lU'lorc (ho ('oHliT^nce.

Grand Master Sweeney could not have failed to anticipate the sct-liack that the switchmen's strike was sure to meet with from the conference of the chief olllclals of the railroad labor organizations after the telegram he received last night from Chief Arthur, of the Jliotherliood of locomotive Fngineer.s. Mr. Arthur's message staled that he could not be present at the conference and ids refusal bore only one significance—namely: That the engineers would refuse to cooperate ill any sympathetic strike to aid tile switchmen. Grand Master Frank 1'. Sargent had already declared that the firemen would not go out unless it was in company with all the other organizations. so when the engineers tacitly refused to take hand ill the trouble there was no further doubts as to what the firemen would do.

Nevertheless, Mr. Sweeney remained hopeful that something would intervene at the last moment to bolster up LiU wmiiiiir buttle und he was unstint

In an interview E. C. Clark, master of the conductors union, said: "I came hen* on mi invitation from Mr. Swroaoy asking inc to represent thr comluctor*in a perioral conference. As turn?. I know we have no Krievamie ajrutnsi On1 railroads mixed up in the present ihflU'ulty. ami we will not be into this strike ur.luss it can be shown unquestionably that the movement of the railroad cor|Mratlons is aimed directly at organized labor. If there are individual grievances they mu*t he acted upon by the order in the prebcribrd maimer before I will touch them. 1 am not in favor of strikes unless they arc conducted in a systematic way."

Grand Master S. E. Wilkinson, of the trainmen, was even more positive in his statements than Mr. Clark. "Our organization ban nothing to strike for iu this trouble," he said. "1 am out here because Mr. Sweeney has ur^'Od me to come. Our organization will not permit any railroad com pany to do its members injustice, but a« far a* I oan see none of the railroads have at/ tempted iu Tho trainmen nre not organized to settle other people's dlrtlcultics, although, ot course, they have an interest in their fellow workmen."

Mr. Sargent, of the firemen's union, said: "I said yeatcrduy the flremeu would not enter into this matter unless it was whh the coojeraLioii -of every other labor organization." be said. "Chief Arthur and the engineers art: clearly out of it. Now draw your owe.tnf'T* ences on wh.it 1 will do."

Camp Shaw was early a scene of bustling animation. All through the great wilderness of tents preparations for the drill were going on. Knights in all stages of full dress and undress were hurrying to and fro. Mounted orderlies, booted and spurred, galloped up and down tho rows of tents.

Black porters and camp followers with vastly important airs hustled about, burnishing equipments and plying brushes to make- the sir knights spick and span for the drill. Visitors and curiosity-hunters in multitudes almost overrun the enmp, yetting in everybody's way, (lodging divisions of footmen nnd .scampering outof the way of galloping horsemen.
