RAILROAD STRIKE NOW OVER

Normal Traffic Resumed After the General Tie-up. The railroad strike has collapse 1 and most of the strikers have returned to their Jobs.

The leader of the “outlaw” switchmen, John Grunau, is In jail at Joliet, 111., In default of 110,000 bonds, which he refused to give, for violation of the federal law known as the Lever act. Twen-ty-four other “outlaws” were arrested with him.
