THE QBEAT STRIKE.

s. The present strike of the railroad em ployes is unparalleled in the history ol this country for the destruction of life and property which has attended it. ?The exhibitions of mob violence falls vlittle short of the "no-popery" riots in 'inlLondon, so graphically described

Dickens in "Barnaby Budge." In Baltimore the mob carried all before them feinntll they met and fell upon the United

States troops, when the latter fired upon •them killing and wounding many. „Pittsburg there was a perfect reign of ^terror. The civil authorities were utter sily powerless and the military were actually driven off by the rioters, with large loss of life to the latter and several of the soldiers killed. All day Sunday a blind sand infuriated mob, numbering several |j& thousands and composed of the worst :f$^lements, had complete control of the and did as they pleased. The shops 1/ --Viand depots of the railroad companies fj| *-^were deliberately set on fire and con•Z: sumed with all their valuable contents, i* the fire department not being allowed to throw a drop of water on the flames.

One hundred and twenty-live locomotives and thousands of freight cars were ^destroyed. Also an immense grain elevator that was near by. The loss by the Ifire is estimated at from 15,000,000 to 910,000,000. At Reading, Pa., the splendid bridge across the Sohuylkill, worth 1160,000 was fired and destroyed. Here, .too, there was loss of life in a conflict iibetween the mob and the soldiers. The

Strike rapidly extended, until nearly sll -the railroads lying east of the Mississippi have been affected by it. A perfect .embargo has been put on travel and the '-transportation of goods. Even where there has been no direct violence, the strikers, as in this oity, have seized the trains and prevented their being run.

A noticeable feature of the strike is that the rioters do not seem to have been the railroad men, for the most part, but tramps, loafers and roughs, who joined the movement solely for the purposes of destruction and plunder. Such was the case at Oolumbus where the Tnob raided private establishments and forcibly compelled the closing of the rolling mills, factories and machine shops. "Shut up or burn up," was the reply they made to any protests from workmen or proprietors. In Pittsburgh loaded cars were broken open and their contents of whatever description openly carried about the streets by men, boys and women, who made off with such loads of plunder as they were able to press through the crowd with.

Suoh symptoms as these look bad for the oauntry, and should tarnish food for serious thought to every geod dtiren. They show that we have a very ugly and vicious olass of men among us, who are ready to burn, pillage and destroy whenever opportunity offers. They show that the worst elements of mob violence and trades-unionism are being transferred from the old world to the new. They show plainly enough that the government must have a strong arm and be aided by the soppdrt of ali law abiding citizens in order to give any reasonable security to life and property. Such a spirit of mob law must not be countenanced. We may sympathise with honest workidgmen but not with any such attempts to right their wrongs, as the seising of cars and engines, the burning of property, the stopping of all travel and transportation and the forcible shutting up of mills and factories. They have aright to quit work, to abandon their brakes and engines, but not to prevent those who are disposed from working. When they do these things tbcgr forfeit fee sympathy and respect of law-abiding men aad assume the diagraceful attitude of rioters. Whatever may be the wronge which qapital p«»a upon labor, this is not the way to right them. It Is a hard lime and wages at* distressingly low but bow are suoh proceedings to make them hottest Every day this state of things continues there is a loss of thousands upon thousands of dollar* and the country Is sotauch the Gxm impoverished.

Suoh seenesss we have passed through are dtagreceful In th* extreme. This spirit of saobocncy must b* mt down promptly apd effectually. Tbere ought to b* ao tenderness shown it. It is the •Her deflMM* of law, the breaking down of aH authority. It must be conquered f}U Isavs abroad treok of ruin and behind It. At all haaaifta, tt eaaee blood to How, let theee

part if the authorities, if their adtlon was prompt and decisive, suoh soenee as the past few days have witnessed could hardly occur. No mob* can long withstand the vigorous, determined action of a company of aeldlera. They will soon be put to rout and a few suoh lessons will be remembered. We lament the neoessity of shedding blood as much as snyone, but when that neoessity is forced upon the lawfril authorities by the vicious and lawless, there is no choice lea and their action should be sharp and deciaive.

WHILE we have no sympathy for the men engaged in the riotous sets of this week—from which acts of violence our city hss bsppily been spared—or excuse for those who have unlawfully taken control of the property of others, still we have a hope that a settlement msy speedily be arrived at by which the men who do the hard work upon the railroads may secure wsges sufficient to support themselves and their families with some little comfort. No mstter how hardly pressed the companies may be, their managers should be aware that at the reduced rate these men can not procure food enough to maintain their physical strength, provided wife and family depend upon them, with the ususl outlay for rent, clothing and doctor's bills. These men are already hard pressed for the necessi ties of life, and however misguided their sction, the hearts of all classes of the community go out towards them. We speak more particularly of the men in this locality, who have conducted themselves in a quiet and orderly manner, considering the circumstances*. We know that most ef the railroads are not paying expenses, but there is a large field for reform in other quarters than that of cutting the wages of laborers down to a point that prevents them from obtaining even the bare necessities of life. Let there be an advance in freights—the merchants will gladly pay it—cut off some extravagance in offices and equipments, get out of the toils of the fast freight lines, have fewer passenger trains, in short get back as near as possible to the good old days of the Terr* Haute and Indianapolte road when its stock was worth double what it is now and the men got good pay.

BOYS we wish to express an opinionit is only our opinion—and may not be worth much—still we give it—and it is thst if you, in a body, or by delegation wait upon the President of the Vandalia and say "Mr. McKeen, we propose to go to work on Monday morning, and we leave the question of wsges to your honor," thst the result will be highly satisfactory—that be will not only to the extent of bis power, be just, but he will be generous. This opinion is based upon our knowledge of the man, arid his known regard for the boys of the rosd.

RAILROAD corporations can never again beoome properous until they loosen from their throats the grasp by which the feat freight lines are choking the life out of them. These fast freight lines are owned for the most part by the big eastern railroad magnates, who make their own"contracts with the railroads in their control, by which they take the cream of the profits, leaving the stockholders the skimmed milk, and that well watered. •aS9B99SE9BB9BBB ^ARKD flag is

IT Is stated that the great trouble in the management of some of the railroads has actually been in keeping too many men employed in proportion to the amount of businesa transacted, and that the reduction of wages was to prevent the discharge of men. v,

THXRXIS some disproportion in a railway president receiving fifty thousand dollars a year and a railway trackman, with a wife and half adosen children, getting ninety cents a day.

FOR once the base hall bat has been put to a good use. At Pittsburg a body of tlie vigilanoe committee was armed with it, and the rioters were batted from base to base.

A WORSE time could not have been cboeen for the atrike—just as the great wheat crop- Was ooming in, confidence was fast being restored and business men were on the esger outlook for that "good time coming."

AT sfaifaparty of sailors should seize a ship and attempt to run it, it would be piracy, and there would be some banging from the yard arm. It is different with land lubbers when they take control of a railway company's carriages and motive power.

PnTBBUHG not only has a prospect of paying for the damage caused by its riot, but the Pennsylvania Railway Company announces that It will not rebuild its burned shops atPittsbnrg, but will put them up at some place remote from riotous people.

And still the Lake Michigan and Wabash canalis a myth. In thesetimes of transportation problems we would rise to ask what becomes of the Congressional appropriations which have been made on one or two occasions toward a survey for this desirable enterpriser

IN one eetablishment in Cleveland two thousand men were thrown out of employment, the interruption of railroad traffic compelling it to close. It is not only the striken who are not at work, but hundreds and thousands of contented men are compelled to be idle.

Ocit oomplaining formers stidjold tal^e a trip by rail in almost any direction and our word for it they will oome back satisfied that for an average crop of most kinds of grain, vegetables and. fruits, there is no more fevered locality than right here on this Fort Harrison prairie.

JA MONARCHIST. Either Jay Gould haa very little regard for public opinion, or he was very careless when he made the remark that the prtsent labor troubles would soon drift the country into tl»e state of a monarchy, indicating therewith the wish that this might oome to pass.. The American people will remember, it against him. It is well to know who are the enemies of the Republic. An enemy with plenty of money and large power over corporations is quite often of more influence than a dozen members of Congress.

IT seems to be the general opinion that the city of Pittsburg will have to pay for the work of that mob. If so that city will be burdened with an enoimous tax.

JUST as we were settling down to quietude, congratulating ourselves that there is no election this year to disturb and excite us, along comes this big strike.

TBE SITUATION.

Perhaps right in this locality there I* th* strongest determination on th* put of tb* railroad st^k*re to not only atop work bat atop th* running of passenger and freight trains, but intelligence from all parte of the country ahow a growing eonfldbno* that th* and la at hand—perhaps th* first of next week. At the time we write—this morning—there- is an Indication that the trouble in this city will be settled by arbitration, and before this paper goes to press we hope to announoe that trains on all toads will b* resumed on Monday. The people are arousing to the neoessity ofmantalnlnglaw and order, and the men who have stopped the wheels of commerce begin to realise the tremendous rasponsiblity they have assumed. Freight and passenger trains are running on all roads out of this oity to-day except the Vandalia, ft St L. and Collett's road.

At Indianapolis, with the exception of the A St.L. and Vandalia lines, the reg ular passenger trains went out on all the roada,and also many freight trains,with out being molested. A dispatch from the General Agent at Indianapolis to the General Manager of the Panhandle road Bays: "Tbe strike Is over here. The strikers ssk to go to work, and say nothing more about it. The committees of safety recommend the railroads to accede to their request."

At Harrisburg freight trains started yesterday morning east and west on the Pennsylvania road and are moving on the Philadelphia and Reading road, and a number of men have resumed work in the Pennsylvania railroad shops.

At Cincinnati passenger trains and local freighta are running on all the roads except the O. A M.

At Buffalo nearly all the passenger and freight trains are running regularly, and it is expected that every difference will be adjusted to-day.

The troubledaome element in all the large cities is now under complete control, and ample preparation have been made for any future outbreak. The most dangerous ground seems to be the mining destricts of Pennsylvania.

The troops throughout the State of New York were disbanded last night.

THE LATEST. ,/

THE MEETING THIS MORNING.

A committed Of citizens held a talk with the railroad employes this morning, and made arrangements to confer with them at their meeting, which was to have been held at ten o'clock, but did not beglh on time. Some of the citizens who have been taking part in the negotiations are of the opinion that everything will be settled as regards our home roads, by this evening. Some of the railroaders talk favorably as to a compromise, while others oppose any compromlae.

There was a rumor toward noon thata train was onf the way from Indianapolis with a force of military under arms, onboard, prepared to take the train through or fight.

Toward eleven o'clock the meeting was called to order, in the room of tbe Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers at Wabash and Seventh streets.

A good deal of discussion took place, conducted very calmly, but showing that different opinions prevailed. The meeting included all the railroad employee, but no others, except repreaentativee of the press, who, after some parley, were admitted.

The first important proposition was to leave the matter in the hands of Pres't. J. E. Martin, of the E. A T. Q. road for arbitration. The sentiment of ali who spoke was that he was as good a man as could be found for Buch business and that none are more liberal, but some spoke agaiB&t any arbitration or compromise. Others represented the case as hopeless, saying other roads were backing down in all directions, and that it was too late for arbitration.

Shortly after eleven o'clock, Pres't Martin was escorted into the room by a member of the committee, and introduced. He made a short speech, saying it was with reluctance that ho appeared before them, as what he was to say he doubted not would be unpalatable, but that he never spoke without saying that which he honestly thought. Hr then stated that Indianapolis send* but trains on all roads that he ha^ just been informed the O. A Jyf was i*un ning everything again without interruption, although vragepwi that road were alwajs beggarly' compared with those paid here fchJU the one road whioh was to blame'more than any other, the T. W.

A

W.,

was suffering least, though it

had been the one which out the throats of the other roads and that his honeat conviction was that the strike was played out. H* thaught th* beat thing the men could do would be to report for duty, trusting to their officers for better wages just as soon as they could afford it.

After tbe address of Mr. Martia th* talk showed considerable dlscoaragemeat, aad it was thought for a time that the men woald coodude to give up the strike.

Afterward* it was announced that a notice had been posted on the doots of the shop* on th* part of th* railroad o*« finals, iavitiag th* men to go to work as usual at 1 o'clock.

i^ &f 4&it&y<g-

lag Mr. MeKe*n thatth* notice waa regarded as an insult. The motion waa peoonded.

Speeches were then made In favor of all tbe employes of the roads concerned refusing to work, remaining away from tbe road, and letting the managers run trains with whoever they could get, and protect their own property if they thought it needed protection.

An invitation was made by the president for all to loave the room who were weak-kneed. No one left.

Aften farther discussion and mutual encouragement, the president oflbrred an invitation for each one to hold up hla hand who intended not to go to work at 1 o'clock, in accordance with the notice which had been poated.

At once tbe hands went up from the crowd all around the room. So fer as oould be seep, every hand was raised, though it is possible all were not.

As we go to press the meeting is waiting for the return of a committee of engineers from an errand to the I. A St. I* depot, before voting on the passage of the resolutions.

Thus it now looks thst the Terre Hauteemployeeon the Vandalia, I. A St. L. and Chioago roads, will unite in quitting work until they get the advance of 15 per cent demanded, and they will not interfere with the running of trains by other men, or prevent others from working in the shops if there are any willing to do eo.

A SERIOUS MATTER.

The men who, in their laudable efforts to secure proper compensation for their hard labor, have taken part in the revolutionary measures of tbe past week, should be made aware of the dangerous ground upon which they are treading. Tbe Indianapolis Journal states that under the laws of the land every man engaged in aiding and abbetting the stoppage of trains is personally liable in civildiamagee, not only to the railroads, but to eveiy shipper and every other

Sy

erson who may suffer loss or damage reason of the interruption of railroad traffic, for the ftill amount of damage resulting therefrom. Suits for the recovery of such damagsa may be brought in the United Statee Court of this State, or of any State into which a striker may hereafter remove. The liability runs fortwenty years. We reoommend the strikers to consider these facts. They are tremendous in their ooneequences. Not a few of the strikers or of those aiding and abetting the stoppsge of trains are property owners in this city, not large property owners, but they have their little houses and homes. We say to every one of theee men,you are liable in a civil suit in the United States Court to the frill amount of any damage suffered by the railroads or by any ship-

Gberruptionpersons

or other by reason of the of traffic. You are liable to be sued in this State or in any other you may go at any time within twenty years, and be compelled to pay for damagsa caused by your lawless acts of the last few days. You are now in the heart of a strike. Your blood is up and you care nothing for the civil author!ties. But the time will oome when the power of the law will aelze you in Its iron grip and when you will appeal in vain to your organizations to protect you. The law is sleepless and inexorable, and though it may be trifled with to-day, it will triumph in the end. We warn you to realize the tall extent of this liability and your utter helplessness at the bar of justice in a United States Court. No sympathy can reach you there, and the machinery of trades-unions will be powerless to aid you. You will stand there without a hook to hang a hope upon. The law defines the offense you are committing and fixes your liability. The penalty is as inevitable as fete. Your property will be swept away without the slightest hope or possibility of resoue. This personal'liability is wide-sweeping in its character. The shipper whose wheat is run on a side-track and fails to reach its destination, whereby he suffers from a decline 'Oj or

in prices, or from injury to the grain, may recover damages from any one the strikers, or from any person aiding or abetting tbe stoppage of trains. Tbe stock dealer whose hogs or cattle die or suffer depreciation or rail to reach their -destination on contract time may sue and recover damages. Every business man who la prevented from oonaomma-

ness'man* who suffers loss or damage from tbe interruption o' railroad traffic has a remedy in the United Statee Court against every person who assists directly or indirectly in the stoppage of traine. This liability will continue long after the strike is over and after the passions of the present hour have sabsidqd. and tbe remedy lies iaa-oourt whose judgments are Inexorable. It would be well for such b'f the strikers as own property feuMfasider these facta.

GOOD OUT OF EVIL* [Ind. Journal.]

Good may oome out of evil, and the great strike, with its attendant bloodshed and terrorism, may prove to b* not an unmixed evil if it leads to abettor understanding between tbe railroads and their employes, and to the Introduction of a fairer and boneeter basis of railroad management throughout the country. As to the violent aspects of the strike, there waa and Is but one position to take. Order must b* preeerved and law enforced at whatever coat. Bat when we we go back ot this and coturidor th* causes which led to the strik* there are two stdee to tbe case. It is an undeniable feet that the employes of most of th* railroad* hav* aoffered eevere hardship* in th* way of reduced wagee, inosaaed work and deferred pay. The xmblic know* thia, and if they had confined tbemeelve* to peaeeable and lawful methods th* public sympathy would StHSSl^^wtth Cbeg^ft lanot

A CURIOUS IDEA. [Clzoinnati Commercial.)

A curious idea prevails that taking possession of the property of railway companies and obstructing the legitimate course of business is not "violence." The law doee not eo hold* the act. To seize the traine and track of a road, and forcibly interrupt and destroy the business, is at law not only a violent proceeding, but ie as unlawful an aot as the burning of the station-houses and demolition of the cars and engines of the company.
