MONON STRIKERS BACK ON JOB
The Monon shopmen at Lafayette who went on strike last Thursday, returned to work yesterday. Many other railroad shopmen on the different roads have returned* to work on assurances by President Wilson that their grievances would be looked Into and who also gave them to understand in plain words that no negotiations could be begun so long as they persisted in continuing the strike against the Instructions of the heads of their unions, as no strike had been ordered except In the Chicago district. The greatest Interruption In by the strike has been on the eastern roads, where many trains were taken off.
