CAUSES OF THE CHICAGO TROUBLE Criticism Bestowed on the Railroad and Pu'lman Company Policy. ORGANIZED LABOR The strike commission appointed by Pres- ident Cleveland to inquire iato the matter of the controversy which arose in June last between the Illinois Central Railroad Com- pany and the Chicago, Rock Island and Pa- cific Railroad Company and certain of their employes har transmitted its report to the President. It deals exhaustively with the General Managers’ Association and the American Railway Union, and is signed by Col. Carroll D. Wright, United States com- missioner of labor: John D. Kernan of New York and Nicholas E. Worthington of Illi- nois. The commission met at the United States district court room in Chicago on August 15, “During the session of thirteen days at Chicago,” the report states, “the commis- sion examined one hundred and seven wit- nesses, who were either presented by the parties or cited to appear. At an adjourned session, held In Washington, September 26, two witnesses appeared, making a total of one hunderd and nine. “At the first hearing it developed that the Pullman employes very generally became members of the American Railway Union in March and April, 184, and that tne nine- teen locai unions which they had formed had declared a strike at Pullman; also that the railroad companies named in the Presi- dent's commission were members of the General Managers’ Association. “The contest was chiefly between these two organizations, and hence nothing re- lating to the strike at Pullman or Cnicago that affected members of either organiza- tion could te excluded as not germane to the subject under investigation. As a mat- ter of discretion, the commission believed it wise to permit the broadest latitude of inquiry, inasmuch as the directions to the commission were ‘to examine the causes of and the conditions accompanying the con- troversies.” Losses and Crimes. “According to’ the testimony the railroads lost in property destroyed, hire of United States deputy marshals and other incidental expenser at least $685,308, The loss of earn- ings of these roads is estimated at $4,672,- 916. Some 4,100 employes at Puilman lost in wages, as estimated, at least $350,000, About 100,000 employes upon the twenty- four railroads centering at Chicago, all of which were more or less involved in the strike, lost in wages, as estimated, at least $1,380,143. Many of these employes are still adrift and losing wages. “Boyond these amounts, very great losses, widely distributed, were incidentally suf- fered throughout the country. The suspen- sion of transportation at Chicago paralyzed @ vast distributive center, and imposed many hardships and much loss upon the great number of people whose manufactur- ing and business operations, employment, travel and necessary supplies depend upon and demand regular transportation service td, from and through Chicago. “During the strike the fatalities, arrests, indictments and dismissals of charges for strike offenses in Chicago and vicinity were as follows: Number shot and fatally wounded, 12; number arrested by the police, 575; number arrested under United States statutes and against whom indictments were found, 71; number arrested against whom indictments were not found, 119." The charger against those arrested are recited at considerable length. The total number of United States proces, state, militia, police, deputy marshals and deputy sheriffs, employed for the protec- tion of city, state and federal property and for the preservation of order, is given as 14,186. The history of the Pullman Palace Car Company and the town of Pullman are reviewed. American Railway Union. Of the American Railway Union the re- port says: “This is an association of about 150,000 railroad employes, as alleged, organized at Chicago on the 20th of June, 1893, for the purpose of including railway employes born of white parents in one great brotherhood, “The theory unlerlying this movement is that the organization of different classes of railroad employes (to the number of about 140,000) upon the trades-union idea _ hi ceased to be useful or adequate; that pride of organization, petty fealousies and the conflict of views Into which men are trained in separate organizations under different leaders, tend to defeat the common object of all, and enable railroads to use such or- ganizations against each other in conten- tions over wages, ete.; that the rapid con- centration of railroad capital and manage- ment demancs a like union of their em- ployes for the purpose of mutual protec- Hon that the interests of each of the 000 and over railroad employes of the United States as to wages, treatment, hours of labor, legislation, insurance, mutual aid, etc., are common to afi, and hence all ought to belong to one organization that shall assert its united strength in the protection of the rights of every member. “The American Federation of Labor, com- posed of affiliated unions, with a member- ship of over 500,000, also tends in the direc- tion of broader union for labor. The order of the Knights of Labor, with an estimated membership of from 150,000 to 175,000, has always advocated the solidarity of labor. Position of the Pullman Company. “In the American Railway Union there are departments of literature and education, legislation, co-operation, mediation, insur- ance, etc. “The omission of @ direct provision in the constitution of the American Railway Union for the punishment or disqualifica- tion of a member who commits or instl- gates violence toward persons or property in strikes is a usual and a grievous omis- sion, and deserves severe condemnation, Until labor organizations take hold of this question vigorously and control their own members effectually they are certain to lose sympathy in their contentions and to be defeated, even though their cause be just and deserve success. “The Pullman company is hostile to the idea of conferring with organized labor in the settlemen' of differences arising be- tween it and its employes. The position of the corrpany in this respect is clearly stated in the testimony of Mr. Wickes, its second vice president. “Since the strike withdrawal from the American Railway Union is required from these seeking work. The company does not recognize that labor organizations have any place or necessity in Pullman, where the company fixes wages and rents, and re- fuses to treat with labor organizations.
