noYCOTT BEGINS.

Railway Unions' Fight with the Pullman Company Opens.

The Illinois Central System Is the Coint of -Attaek Trains Hloeked at Chicago Switchmen and Other Employes (Jo Out. TIKL) UP. Chicago, June 27.—At 1 o’clock this morning the officials of the Illinois Central railroad gave out the information that their line from Chicago to New <lrlmiiis had been tied up by the secession of every switchman iu their employ. All the towermen, sav itch tenders and switching engine ereAvs in Chicago and suburbs struck at midnight. The report Avas also given out that the j Western Indiana road would be tied up. The main suburban service of the road aa-us operated up to midnight, and it aaus understood at that time that President Debs, of the American Railway union, hud given instructions that the strike should not be extended to the suburban service at present. Freight service in the yards had ceased entirely and Avhat saa itches AA'ere being' throAVn Avere operated by officials. The express for Sioux City at 11:35 o'clock left Avithout any trouble over the Air Line. It Avas the expectation of the officials that the men remaining in train service Avould strike to-day. us that was the common report. The boycott against the cars of the Pullman company Avent into effect in Chicago Tuesday noon, and Avas f >1Ioaa ed. at a feAv minutes after 7 o'clock in the evening, by an order for a strike on the part of the SAvitchmen employed in the terminal yards of the Illinois Central. Avhich means from Kensington to Randolph street in the city. They Avere folloAved by the switehtendersj and at midnight Avere joined by the KAvitch toAver operators. This Avas a surprise to the officials of the road, but it avus a Avell-planned move on the part of Debs, IloAvurd and the other leaders of the anti-Pullman Avar. They secretly organized these men and resolved to make a test of their strength against the road on Avhich they iu-e strongest and best organized. When the SAvitchmen and tenders AA'ent out a mob Avhich soon greAv from 560 to 2,000 SAvitchmen. Pullman strikers and sympathizers, gathered at Grand Crossing andstopped all Illinois Central trains but one that attempted to pass. They also stopped the Pennsylvania trains. At 10 o'clock there Avere nine trains of the former road and six of the latter blockading the tracks centering at Grand Crossing.. The switchmen say they have struck in sympathy Avith the Pullman strikers an 1 in accordance with the plans of the American Railway union. The mob began to gather at Grand Crossing at 7 o'clock and by 8 o'clock became strong enough to interrupt traffic. No discrimination avus shown in the operations of the strikers. Suburban trains, passenger trains, freight trains, everything, Avhether it carried a Pullman or not. Avas halted by the mob. One Illinois suburban train managed to pull through early in the evening, but after that traffic Avas completely stopped. Another attempt avus made to get an Illinois Central train through, but a man in the croAvd threAv himself doAvn on the rails in front of the engine and the engineer refused to move the train. The midnight fast-mail train on the Michigan Central going out and the incoming fast mail on the Illinois Central Avere the first trains to feel the effects of the strike of the terminal men. They were both blocked at the F'orty-third street tower shortly after midnight. One of Chief Engineer W allace's assistants Avith the depot master ami one or tAvo minor officials succeeded in throAving the interlocking SAvitches by hand, releasing the trains at 1:30 o'clock this morning. The same men then began to make up the fast Chicago-New Orleans mail. President Debs said Tuesday lie Avas perfectly satisfied with the situation and that telegrams he had received from a large number of places indicated that the boycott would be a success. He continued: • I tt UL to say Unit it Is not the policy of the American Railway union to discommode the public to any Kreator extent than is absolutely necessary. It Is for this reason that we let Tuesday practically s'o by default and have decided to heirin active operations to-day. The situation Is this: The order to boycott the cars of the Pullman company Avent Into < ffect at 12 o'clock. Prior to that time thu companies had made up all of their trains for the day. and they had stood on the tracks long enough to HU up with people. If we had started out Avith thoso cars and afterward sidetracked them some place we would have been guilty of an unwarrantuble act toward the people on the cars and besides would have lost the friendship of many others. Accordingly we gave orders for all trains to go through that were made up prior to 12 o'clock, and those orders have been carried out. "To-day we expect that there Avill he a different condition of affairs. The trams will not be made up. and when they are no Pullman curs will be attached to them. We do net expect to make a general tie-up of the cars of the Pullman company unless such a move shall become absolutely necessary. If we can w in by tleing up three or four big trunk lines we Avill do so." Dispatches from many cities indicate that the same policy outlined in the above IntervieAv Avith President Debs prevailed on Tuesday, and that, tho boycott Avill actually begin to-day.

Lyons, June 27.— A riotous mob gathered at 7 o’clock Tuesday evening and marched upon the Italian quarter in tlie northern district of the city. During the pillaging a barrel of petroleum exploded and burned three of the rioters to death. Troops have been hastily dispatched to the northern district. In addition all the dangerous points about Lyons have been occupied by the military. More serious trouble is apprehended. Tavo thousand arrests Averemade Tuesday in connection Avith the anti-Ital-ian manifestations. The greater number of tlie prisoners Avere liberated after a short detention and after being cautioned against creating further dis-

order.

Santo stated while being examined by a magistrate Tuesday that he had no .personal grievance against I’resident Carnot. He killed him because lie Avas a tyrant. The magistrate asked: “Are you an anarchist?” Santo replied: "Yes, and I am proud

of it.”

“Why did you kill the president?” “I Avill tell a jury; they shall know tlie motive that prompted my action.” “Hoav did you stab M. Carnot?” “I pushed aside a cuirassier's horse. I had the dagger concealed in my sleeve and I only had to raise my hand. I aimed at his stomach and brought my arm doivn sharply, at the same time shouting: 'Vive L'Anarchie.' The crowd rushed forward and prostrated me and I Avas beaten mercilessly.” “You persist in affirming that you did not have accomplices?” “Yes. But is the president dead?” Santo gathered from the magistrate's silence that his blow had been effective. Ho smiled Avith satisfaction, and raising his hand simulated the stabbing. Tlie examination lasted four hours, and the magistrate was convinced that Santo acted alone. STOLE OVER $1,200.

A KuccrMful .lob of Train Kohl,cry on a Georgia Hoad. Savannah, Ga.. June 27.—Train No. 0 of the Savannah. Florida & Western railAA^iy, from Thomasville, due to arrive at 7 Tuesday morning, Avas held up this side of Homerville at 1:30 a. m. by six masked men. The safe in the express ear avhs robbed of its contents. 81.222 in cash. Two of the men boarded tlie train at Homerville, concealing themselves behind tho tender. As soon as it started they climbed over the tender, covered tlie engineer and firemen Avitii pistols and told , Engineer Jenkins to stop Avhen ordered. A mile from Homersville the order avus given and the train brought to a standstill. The door of the express ear was bloAvn off Avith dynamite. The messenger was stunned. When he came to he Avas looking into the barrel of a pistol. When told to open the safe he did so, taking the package out, as ordered. Having secured the booty the robbers got on the engine, made the fireman uncouple it from tlie ears, and then compelled both engineer and fireman to leave it. Then they ran tlie engine up to a point in the woods near Argyle, 11 miles from the scene of tiie robbery. Avhere they left it and took to the Avoods. Sheriff Hurst. Avith a posse and a pack of hounds, is in pursuit. The officials believe the posse has the right trail and that the robbers Avill be captured. The robbers did not enter the mail cars nor any of the passenger coaches, their only apparent object being to secure the money in the express ear. The passengers were considerably alarmed for the time being. No one

was hurt.

PROVERBS. No reformation enters by the back door. All the good men do not oAvn front peAVS. The most absolute despotism protects the few. Party patriots are not raised on Spartan broth. Faatii born only of fear fills the church Avith cowards. If man had a hundred eyes ho would still have a blind side. An empty stomach is likely to become anarchy's bass drum.
