May Drop A. R. U. Cases.

San Francisco, Cal., June 26.—Word is received that if the United States district attorney so advises the cases pending against 130 members of the American Railway union for participating in the great strike of last year will be dismissed. Four cases previously tried without conviction cost the government $20,000. The testimony against the balance of the prisoners is the sama as used in the other trials; hence the decision. The government attorney will advise dropping the prosecution.
