CHICAOO, July 10.—Yesterday passed without a terious conflict between the rioters and armed forces. The feature of the day was the action of the Federated Trades' unions in deciding to call out all classes of labor this afternoon at 4 o'clock unless George M. Pullman agrees to arbitration before that time. For reasons not known to the public Grand Master Workman Sovereign of the Knights of Labor and his advisers subsequently decided to postpone the general walkout and paralytic stroke which they propose to inflict upon the business of Chicago until 7 o'clock tomorrow morning. Lute yesterday afternoon, however, the announcement was made that President (rompers of the American Federation of Labor had called a meeting of the executive committee of that organization to be held in this city on Thursday and that he would leave New York for Chicago this evening.
May Not Take Precipitate Action. In view of this it is not believed tliat the Federated Trades of Chicago will take precipitate action before consultation with him. As President Gomperg cannot reach Chicago before tomorrow night it will be impossible to decide on a line of action to be pursued before Thursday, and probably if it should finally be resolved to declare a general strike of all those combined forces it could not be put into effect before Friday morning. In this connection, the interesting question arises whether or not if President Goinpers allows himself to be hauled from New York to Chicago by nonunion engineers and firemen liis visit will be of any particular profit. One labor leader in Chicago said that if he did so he might as well stay in New York. Another feature to be noted in connection with the meeting of Chicago's federated labor is the fact which was developed that there was in the meeting a larjje and influential conservative element whose action had practicallv blocked the plans of the more hotheaded loaders, until the latter, in the excitement consequent upon the reading of President Cleveland's proclamation, were enabled to stampede them and carry the strike resolution.
May Not Obey the Order.
Therefore there is reason to believe them even if the order for a general strike finally goes forth, that many of those to whom it is directed will decline to obey it. So that, with the men already made idle by the effect of the tieup, the walkout will not be nearly so important as anticipated by the leaders. What effect, if any, the action of Vice President Wickes of the Pullman company in refusing all offers to arbitrate will have upon the final decision of the labor leaders remains to be seen. Touching the situation in general it may be said that in Chicago the roads were all doing better than on any previous day since the strike began. Passenger trains were moving with more of less regularity and some freight traffic has been cared for. A large number of striking freight handlers of the Illinois Central returned to work and other roads noted accessions to their operative forces.
More Federal Troops In Chlcapo. At St. Louis, Kansas City and Denver it was reported that railroad business had about returned to normal conditions. Nashville also reported an improvement. About the only points at which the strike managers showed any gain were in the partial walkout of firemen at Fort Scott, Kan., the freight men on the Kanawha and Michigan at Charleston, W. Va., and the strike of the American Railway union men on the Big Four at Mattoon, Ills. It will thus be seen that at the leading railroad centers the strikers have made perceptible losses, while their gains are at comparatively unimportant points. Regulations which prevailed in the government building yesterday were a near approach to martial law. Deputy marshals were stationed on every floor and everybody was challenged who could not show that he had business in the building. Federal troops to the number of 1,000 arrived this morning and with those already here there is not much danger of another outbreak.
Proclamation Causes Excitement. The president's proclamation against the assemblage of crowds, and advising citizens to absent themselves from mobs or other gatherings, caused mucli excitement in Pullman. Forward persons were not slow to claim that the federal authorities had entered into a combination with the Pullman interests to break up the open air meetings that have been a daily feature in the town. "If we can't meet freely in the open air to discuss our wrongs," said one of tbem, "there is but one alternative. The tendency io to meet in secret. This is what forces secret societies, and if carried out will make it necessary for us to work under cover of secrecy as different sections of one whole. This is what creates the secrecy of nihilism and it is a conspiracy to break our spirits by scattering us." "Tne action of the allied trades of this oity will, I am confident, be followed in other cities," said President Debs. "This is now a battle for the preservation of union principles, and labor will rise en masse to help itself."
Tore Up the Track*.-
At 1 o'clock this morning a crowd of Poles and Hungarians gathered at Ashland avenue and the Grand Trunk tracks and before the authorities were warned had torn up several hundred feet of track. A company from the Second regiment charged the crowd and dispersed It after firing several shots. No one was hurt as far as known. The packers are preparing to send 50 carloads of%ressed meat east over the Pan Handle road. A heavy military muird wtll ba provided
as far as the city limits and no trouble is looked for. Speaking of the prohibited labor meeting Mayor Hopkins says his order was not intended to stop labor meetings except in the districts where acts of lawlessness have been committed, His object in forbidding them there was simply to prevent possible collisions between the crowds which might collect and assault the troops.
vlijs QUIET AT HAMMONII.
Feeling Against the Troops Very Bitter, However* HAMMOND, Ind., July 10.—The arrival of the state militia has had a quieting effect on the strikers and no further trouble is looked for. There are between 700 and 800 state troops hero. On their arrival the United States troops were withdrawn to Chicago. The strikers have been awed into complete subjection for the time being, and in view of the tragic occurrences of Sunday the guard is not likely to be lessened until all dangers of a fresh outbreak is impossible. Among the ftate troops are 50 men from battery B, Indianapolis, with Gatling guns. It is said that many more persons were injured in Sunday's conflict than have been reported and that the feeling against the militiamen is very bitter.
The coroner's jury impanelled to inquire into the killing of Charles Fleischer by the federal troops returned a verdict to the effect that "Charles Fleischer's death was caused by accident occasioned by the soldiers of Company B, Fifteenth infantry regiment, shooting wantonly and carelessly into a crowd of peaceable citizens."
OAS ITKKN LAX.
Snaplcinn That, the Southern Pacific Has Not Exhausted Its llcsources. WASHINGTON, July 10.—The statement is telegraphed here from California that the strikers are about to apply to the United States court to compel the Southern Pacific Railroad company to show cause why they should not be compelled to operate tlieir road under the terms of their charter. This was not disagreeable news to the war department, and they rather hoped that such a proceeding would be taken, for it would oblige the railroad company to supplement the efforts of the military by every means in their power, and there is a suspicion that it has been a little lax in this respect so far.
NO TROOPS FOIt IDAHO.
TWO WOMEN KILLED.
Militia Fires Over tho Deads of Striking Miners and Kills Spectators. DANVILLE, Ills., July 10.—Mrs. Michael Glennan and Miss Clara James were killed and an unknown man mortally wounded at Westville yesterday afternoon by a volley fired over the heads of a crowd of rioting miners by a company of militia. During the night a number of freight cars were destroyed in the Eastern Illinois yards by incendiary fires.
Will Not Ileed the Order. NEW HAVEN, Conn., July 10.—The railroad employes in this city will pay no heed to the order issued by President Debs calliug out all members of the American Railway union. The employes of the consolidated roads, numbering over 5,000, have decided to act according to the instructions of Chief Arthur and will not go out. The trades unions in the city have taken no action in regard to Debs' order.
Entire Militia Now Out.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills.. July 10.—Upon the request of Mayor Hopkins of Chicago Governor Altgeld has ordered out all the remaining regiments of militia in the state, ordering General Bakely, commanding the Second brigade, to proceed at once to Chicago with all his brigade, excepting five companies on duty at interior points.
Southern Pacific Helpless.
SAN* FKAM:ISCO, July 10.—The twelfth day of the great strike on the Southern Pacific closed with not a wheel turning in northern California. At Sacramento, Oakland. San Jose and this point the situation is unchanged. The Southern Pacific managers are utterly helpless and appear to make no effort to resume trafflo.
Losing Ground.
Los ANGELES, July 10.—The strikers are apparently losing ground rapidly at this point. The Santa Fe road has dispatched another overland train and nearly all the Santa Fe local trains arrived and departed on schedule time. The Southern Pacific is also running trains.
Mllltla Stoned.
SPOKANE, Wash., July 10.—A mob at Sprague stoned the special train carrying two companies of militia, ditched the cars in front of it and ran a car of oil on the culvert east of town and burned it. The trestle west of town was fired and 15 feet of it burned.
THE CRAWFORDSVILLE JOURNAL.
Employes to Ito Arrested*
ST. LOUIS. July 10.—Advices have been received here from Fort Smith, Ark., to the effect that on informations filed before United States Judge Parker at Fort Smith by the St. Louis and Iron Mountain railway officials warrants have
bee\j ordered issued for the arrest of 700 ex-employes of that road upon tho charge of conspiracy to interrupt interstate oommerce and the carrying of mails. The men, most of whom are at Little Hock and Argenta, will be arrested and taken to Fort Smith for examination.
FOltKIGN COMMENT.
Opinions of Several English Papers on the Great Strike. LONDON, July 10.—The Times, commenting on the American railroad striku, says: The strike has collapsed as much by its own weight as by the action of the government. There may be no harm in a lesson to the lawabiding that they may easily unchain forces wliieh they are afterward glad to see controlled, even by federal troops.
The Telegram says: What we are beholding in tho United States is the Nemesis of old sins among the American people". Overborne by the immigration of motley aliens, the native population ha? abdicated to the adventurers and noisy rascals who lead them all in command of national and municipal government. The brand and infamy _of the tyranny of such bodies as Tammany are stamped only too plainly upon the life of the gTeat and noble country.- There lurks in this a dark

Governor McConnell's Statement Satisfactory to the President. WASHINGTON, July 10.—Senators Dubois and Shoup of Idaho called at the white house yesterday to lay before the president Governor Council's request for troops at Wallace, Ida. The senators were in conference with the president for some time, but apparently the governor's statement was not entirely satisfactory in demonstrating that the conditions are such as to warrant the sending of troops to Wallace, for no orders to that end have yet been issued.

The same thincr la hannnnina on a small

The Daily News has the following to say: A general strike as a voluntary measure is but a madman's dream. The co-operation of the governors of Illinois and Indiana for the suppression of disorder must:erv to show the rioteis that the game is up.
NOTHING TO AUIHTUATH.
Statement Marie by a Son-in-Law of Mr. Pullman* NEW YOHK. July 10.—The Herald's Alexandria Bay dispatch tells of a visit to the summer home of George M. Pullman at Castle liest. Mr. Pullman's son-in-law, George West, reported that tho former could not be seen. The reporter asked: "What are Mr. Pullman's views on the subject of arbitration'?'' "Precisely what they were a month ago," said Mr. West. "He don't see anything to arbitrate. What is there to arbitrate. Nothing at all. We had but few orders and these we had to scurry about the country. From tho lack of work we were compelled to lower the mens' pay.'' "What has Mr. Pullman to say in regard to the news that all tho trades unions in Chicago will strike today at 4 o'clock unless he will submit to arbitration?"
Mr. West: re]ilied: "Mr. Pullman cannot help tho situation as he has many, many times stated. He can do no arbitrating, for he sees nothing to arbitrate. No, nothing at all."
A: I'OU AUUITKATION.
Maj'OT of rolt Addresses an Immense Meeting of Workingmen. DICTKOIT. July 10.—Following an immense parade of workingmen lust night a massmeeting was held in the Auditorium to discuss tho present strike situation and th'i relations of labor and capital generally. The structure could not begin to contain the multitude. Addresses were made by various labor leaders in which Pullman was roundly denounced and the cause of the strikers commended. The feature of tho meeting was an address by Mayor Pingree. He recommended a system of compulsory arbitration as away out of strike difficulties, to be enacted by an amendment to tho federal constitution. The mayor read telegrams received in reply to his inquiry telegraphed to tho mayors of 00 cities, comprising nearly all sootions of the United States, 90 per cent of whom recommended arbitration as the true solution of labor questions.
Held For Trial.
SANTA FE, July 12.—Robert Bland and 12 others, arrested for interfering with Santa Fe trains at Raton and Brother last Friday, were arraigned on charges of contempt and obstructing the mails. Judge Seeds held them in if 1,000 bail each. Trials will not come off for several days on account of lack of witnesses. Passenger and freight trains are moving both east and west in New Mexico. All is quiet and the situation improved.
Marines May Take a naml. SAN FRANCISCO, July 10.—The United States cruiser Charleston came into port yesterday from Rio do Janeiro via Bluefields and Acapulco, being nine days from the latter point. The Charleston was hurriedly dispatched to Maro island and it is believed her force of marines will be ordered to join the marines that have been ordered to Oakland.
Improvement at Memphis. MEMPHIS, July 10.—The general strike situation in Memphis is decidedly improved. The. tie-up on the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Memphis and the Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham has been broken. Passenger trains with Pullmans attached left Memphis for Kansas City and Birmingham.

Yardmen Out at Dallas.
DALLAS, July 10.—The yardmen of the Santa Fe system at this point have struck. They went out on the strength of a telegram from Debs promising all possible assistance. Passenger trainp are running on time and also Pullman sleepers.
Decided Improvement.
SALT LAKE CITY, July 10.—There has been a decided improvement in passenger and freight traffic. Trains are moving without interruption.
Under Military Protection.
LITTLE RH:K, July 10.—Tho strike situation at this point remains practically unchanged. Passenger trains are running about on time under military protection, but not a car of freight has been moved. Engineers and firemen on tho Central division have refused to handlo
passenger trains hauling Pullman sleepers ana trains on that division are being manned with main line men. Nineteen engineers are out. Superintendent Rose states that 40 engineers and firemen who had been laid off at Sedalia, liavo been ordered here, and when they arrive an attempt will be made to move freight trains.
ORGANIZING IN THE EAST.
Representative of Ielis Among the Laborers In New York. NEW YORK, July 10.—John Ryan, who comes here as the representative of President Dobs, is at the Continental hotel. "The strike," said Mr, Ryan, "will not stop here. My errand is to organize tho laborers of the east. I am confident of succeeding. My work up to the present time has borne fruit 10 times more than 1 expected it would. I was cautious about approaching the leaders upon the subject of striking in sympathy, but my first attempt has convinced me that there was no ground for holding back. I was somewhat surprised to ascertain that the feeling here to Htriko was pretty warm."

All Transcontinental Lines Now Under Military Control.
REINFORCED BY THE NAVY.
Marines to He Used on the Coast of Cnllfornla Crisis Ilelleved to He Past. Marked Improvement In the Mail
Servlro—Another Proclamation by tho President—Work of Congress.
WASHINGTON, July 10.—"Tho administration will not cease in its efforts until the constitutional right of every man to obtain employment free from intimidation is thoroughly established. If that should be the outcome of the present struggle it will be well worth the price paid for it, dear as it has been." This statement by a high official sots out concisely the position of the government. It means a guarantee not only to protect the operation of the mails and to keep open interstate communication, but to protect the right of the individual guaranteed by tlio constitution of the United States. Every day there has been another step toward the end in view, a tightening of the lines over tho lawless without even a momentary relaxation or backward movement. Saturday it was evidenced iu the sweeping orders placing the transcontinental railroads under military control.
Tiie Outlook Reassuring
It was marked by the addition of reinforcements to General Miles' command, and yesterday it was shown by the draft on the naval forces at Mare island to supplement the forces with which General linger will crush out tne opposition to law and order in San Francisco, Oakland and Sacramento. No one can tell what the next move will be, for it depends on the developments of the next 24 hours, but it can be stated that the government will not cetise until the rebellion against law and order has been quelled, if the entire power of the national government is required to do it. The events of the day were reassuring to the national authorities. Official reports were few and meager for so explicit and comprehensive have been the orders issued to the commanders of the great army departments that there is no longer necessity for inquiry by them and nothing is oxpocted at army headquarters from them iu the way of dispatches, unless they have to report further encounters between the troops and the mobs.
Arrangements For Hotter Mail Service. Most of the information received at headquarters comos in the shape of press bulletins and as these contained many indications of resumption of work and traffic at various points where tho blockade has prevailed the officials are encouraged to believe that the crisis has been passed. The absence yesterday of the riotous scenes that have marked the past fow days is a source of special satisfaction to tho postal officials. Postmaster General Bissell said last night that ho was greatly gratified at the quietness into which Chicago settled during tho day and the general marked improvement in the mail service. Arrangements to relieve the paralyzed condition of the mail service in California as well as in some other sections are being made by the department. About a dozen special service routes have been ordered to connect tied up roads with uninterrupted roads at available points. Most of these are in California, Oregon and Montana.
I'EKI. ENCOURAGED.
Treasury OIHulals Satisfied With the Cessatlon of Gold Exports. WASHINGTON, July 10.—The net cash balance in the treasury at the close of business yesterday was $121,503,222, of which $04,241.400 was gold reserve. This is an increase in the cash balance since June 27 of nearly $7,500,000, and an increase in the gold reserve since June 25 of nearly $2,230,000. The treasury officials are greatly encouraged at the seeming cessation of the gold export movement and the great iucreaso in internal revenue receipts, and are very confident that these conditions added to the probable early passage of the new tariff bill will result in a large increase of the cash balance in the gold reserve.
Another Proclamation.
WASHINGTON, July 10.—The president has issued a proclamation substantially like the one bearing on Chicago, but referring to troubles in North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington, Wyoming, Colorado and California. The proclamation names 3 o'clock this afternoon as the time before which all mobs must disjierse and law-abiding citizens return to their abodes.
Conference Without IlcMultg Vet. WASHINGTON, July 10.—The first day of tho conference of the Democratic conferrees of the two houses was without practical results or visible progress, so far as can lxs learned. The conference continued for six hours and was uninterrupted even for meals, but when an adjournment was taken after 6 o'clock no item in tho bill had been finally passed upon and agreed to.
For an Increase of the Army. WASHINGTON, July 10.—One of the congressional measures inspired by the strike was a resolution offered by Representative Draper of Massachusetts looking to an increase of the regular army. It directs the committee on military affairs to inquire what increase, if any, should be made in the army of the United States.
Congress.
WASHINGTON, July 10.—The senate passed the navy appropriation bill and then took up and disposed of the house bill amending the laws relative to mining claims. Two bills of local interest to the District of Columbia were passed by the house.

A pplication of the Cheap John Principle In a Chicago Police Court. "Well, if you want to pay tho fine, it will be $n. If you don't want to pay, it will bo i? 10. Now, which will you have?"
This is tho way in which justice is dispensed in tho Desplaines street polico court. A dicker is mado, if possible, with tho prisoner in tho dock, much on tho samo principle as goods are sold on tho bargain counter of a Cheap John store.
Last night Thomas Gibbous, a teamster, bought a chicken saudwibh from a peddler at the corner of Desplaines and Meridian streets, and after eating tho samo refused to pay for it. Officcr Ullmacher felt called upon to arrest him, and ho was arraigned before Justice Doyle in tho Desplaines street court this morning. After telling all tho details of the transaction tho officer said: "And when ho was scorched at tho station lie h:wi two $5 bills, your honor."
At this remark justico Doyle brightened up, and grasping his pon said: "Is that so? Did you havo $10?"
Gibbons pleaded guilty to the charge of having an unusual amount of money for a Desplaines street prisoner, and tlio court continued: "Well, I'll make it $5 if you want to pay, but if not the fine will bo If 10. Which will you have?" "If I have !eeii guilty of any wrongdoing, I am willing to pay, but" "That will do. Take$5, Mr. Clerk." "But I don't think I am guilty, and I don't propose to pay a flue," remarked tho prisoner. "Oh, very well," said Justice Doyta "You can make it $10,
