A., who is stationed in Nebraska and who was ordered here as instructor. This officer was mounted and endeavored to rush the crowd of spectators back by riding at a fast speed over them. Women and children were knocked down and trampled upon by his horse. Efforts were made to dismount him, but he succeeded in escaping by the constant fire of cannon in the direction of the crowd Orders were issued by the city authorities to arrest him at once. Strong feeling exists and the officer will be made to

“No, we were not.”

by his company.
“Most of our men,” he said, “quit work through fear, but of the 522 actual strikers only 74 have been taken back ” Not Orgtinlzed to H«‘<ltictt Wage*. Mr St. John gave a history of the formation of the General Managers' as sociution, which he denied had its inrep tion from any desire to reduce the wages of the men. He said further; “The schedule of wages we have compiled seems to have been misuuderstexxl. It is a tabulation of railroad wages all over the country. It was impossible to have anything like equality of wages for the same elass of service without some such tabulation. It had nothing to do with an intended reduction of wages and was not followed by reductions. Two or three southern lines found they were paying wages considerably in excess of wages paid by their competitors, and naturally reduced them to an equality. “I do not say that there will not lx' a reduction of wages and a revision of the schedule tax.

Some of the companies have had their earnings decrease at the rate of $500,000 si month.” Mr. St. John, in answer to a question, said the story that Gen. Miles laid called at the association’s headquarters
was positively absurd.
Had No Komvdy For Strikp*. Questioned as to the best remedy for strikes, he said he lisid no suggestions to make, although he had given the matter much thought. That si way would eventually be found he firmly believed, but he could not form an idea now as to
