10 THB ENGIVEERS’ STRIKE, Riotous Violence and Threats Interrupt Railrsad Traffic. * SPREAD OF THE DISAFFECTION Trade Meetings at Pittsburg and Chicago Encourage the Strikers to Continue Their Resistance to the Re- duction of Wages. Status of the Strike at Pittsburg—Grand Chief Engineer Wilson Discredited— A Reward for Conviction of Law- breakers. Prrrspura, Dec. 20, 1873. There is no matertal change In the situation of the striking engineers and the railroad oMctals. Both manifest a determined spirit not to yield a point, and consequently passenger travel isin a great measure retarded, while the moving of freight for the present is out of the question, The several companies declare their ability to run their trains regularly as heretofore in a few days atthe farthest, but the assembled engineers confidently assert that they cannot do it. The Pan Handle Railroad has succeeded since the commencement of the strike in securing a umber of competent engineers, and sent them out in cnarge of its freight trains. At Dennison they were gobbled up by the strikers, and in some eases both engineers and firemen have enlisted to the ranks of the strikers. IMPORTANCE OP THE STRIKE. The Fort Wayne company’s shops and those of the Pan Handle company have been closed for the present on account of the strike. This throws out ‘of employment, temporarily, about 1,500 men, be- sides 1,365 engineers and an equal number of fire- men already out, making in all 4,230 railroad hands out of work, This strike, measured either by the intelligence, organized strength and financial status of the men engaged, or by the greatness of its effects upon the business interests of the coun- try, far transcends any mere manufacturing or mining strike in importance; and if it be not soon compromised or arranged it will be severely felt, clogging every branch of business. POSITION OF THE BROTHERHOOD. The card of Charlies Wilson, the Grand Chief Engineer of the Brotherhood, is poohpoohed by the engineers engaged in this strike, and at a meeting yesterday afternoon he was referred to in not very complimentary terms. It was intimated that he could be aEpeoach ett by railroads, that indeed he had an itching palm, and they would pay no atten- tion to him or his circulars. The following card ‘was telegraphed to him at Cleveland to-day :— To Cuantes WiLson :— fhe engineers connected in the strike on the Pennsyl- vamia jeased lines have correct knowledge of the con- stitution and bylaws of the Brotherhood, without your advising us. Your advice to go to work is not neéded, “as we have assumed the responsibility and will resume Work when the company advises us ot a settlement satis- factory to all concerned. ¥, H. GREGORY, Vice Chairman and Secretary of Conierence Committee. AN AMICABLE CONFERENCE. This morning the Alleghany Valley Railroad oficials—tnis road being a branch of Tom Scott's Pennsylvania Ceutral—sent an invitation to their engineers asking for a conference in relation to a contemplated reduction of Wages on that road. A committee of the engineers called at the office of the President, where they remained in conference for two hours, but without having effected any- thing. The meeting was adjourned for two days, | ‘when the discussion o! the subject will be resumed, the railroad authorities coming to the conciusion that the meeting was a little premature. They will de guided, it is uRdersteod, by the resuit of the ac- tion of the Pennsylvania Central Railroad. The President of the road, Colonel Phillips, anticipates no strike, but thinks that all the emplovés of the road will submit peaceably to a reduction on 10 per cent in the wages of all employés, which is to go into effect on New Year's Day, OVER THE CENTRAL LINE. Last night a committee of engineers started from this city to go East, along the line of the Pennsylvania Railroad, for the purpose of confer- ring with the engineers’ committees at Altoona, Harrisburg and other points, and then go on to Philadelphia, where they expect to meet the dig- nitaries of the road and conler with them upon the roposed reduction, to take effect on aud after jew Year’s, Itissaid to ve certain that tf the road insists on a reduction the engmeers on that | toad will go on strike also. MONEY VOTED TO THE STRIKERS. At the meeting to-day a resolution was adopted to the effect that any engineer requiring assist ance would be promptly furnished it by the asso- ciation if he will give the proper notification. It ‘Was especially impressed upon the meering that the strike was made entirely independent of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, but by the engineers themseives, not over hall of whom be- re to that society. The Brotherhood advised and sympathized with the strike, but had noth- ing at all directly to do with it. The men are again admonished irom going near locomouves or interiering with trains. A REWARD OFFERED. This.afternoon J. N. McCullough, General Mana- ger of the Pittsburg, St. Louis anu Cincinnati Rail- Toad, issued an order to the eflect that $1,000 re- ‘ward will be paid for any imiormation that would secure the arrest and conviction ol the parties Wao recently obstructed the track of that road, and who have hurled missiles at the engineers and cars, and damaged property along the line. He also says that it is believed the present strike is the result ofa conspiracy to prevent the public Jrom using the line owned and operatea by that company, and it is therefore desirous that ail such persons en- gaged in such conspiracy should be promptly pun- 1s) It is thereiore ordered $1,000 be paid for the arrest and conviction of each person engaged in any conspiracy against the in- terest of this company in connection with the pres- ent diiliculties tuat exist upon these roads, Violent Demonstrations by the Strikers, INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 29, 1873, Last night a party of men entered the round house of the Jeffersonville and Indianapolis Rail- road and broke the gauges of all the engines in the house. Only two engines had been repaired and made ready for service this morning. A large crowd gathered in the Pan Handle yards to-day, but the shops were closed and a guard of men armed with Spencer rifles placed in the yard. Bush, who shot engineer Vance night belore last, waived an examination this moruing, and was committed to jail in default of $10,000 bail, Trains Running Regulariy—Policemen Sent to Logansport—Bush’s Bail Re-« juced. INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 29—Evening. There is little change in railroad matters to-day. On the Columbus division one train each way passed over the road. On the Jefersonville line one freight train and one passenger train each Way Wentthrough. Nearly all the trains on the Vincennes line are running regularly. At the request of General Macaulay, in command ef the muitia at Logansport, 20 policemen Were sent there by the Goveruor to-night. The rumor current to-night, of a general strike on all roads, is not believed in railroad circies. The President of the Machinists and Blacksmiths, Union arrived here to-night trom Cleveland, It is supposed that his visit is connected with the engineers’ strike. He favors a compromise and deprecates violence, juage Howland has reduced the bail of engineer Bush, who shot engineer Vance while on an engine, to $3,000, A Train in Peril. CINCINNATI, Ohio, Dec, 29, 1873, Tue New York night express train from Pitts- ‘urg to Cincinnati, on the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louts Railroad, due here at haif-past six yesterday morning, arrived at eleven o'clock last night. At Cadiz, Ohio, between five and six o'clock, Saturday night, the train ran into a misplace Switch, but fortunately escaped serious damage. Soap had been placed in the tank at Columbus, Ohio, from which the locomotive took Water, rendering the water unfit tor making steam, ing the locomotive to danger and causing a at London, where the steam was blown off nd the water in the boiler and tender renewed. Passenger Trains Going Through. Crxcinnati, Dec, 29—11 P. M. There were no new developments in the ratiroad mtrike to-day. All the passenger trains on the Pitisbarg, Cincinnati and St. Louis Railroad went ‘ont to-day, except one accommodation train and the New York night express. All the oficers ca- Posted ot running locomotives are doing 80. It is oped that the trains will move regularly to-mor- row. The hotels and other branches of business feel the effects of tne interruption of railroad com- munication. One Company of Militin Restores Order at Dennison. CoLomncs, Obie, Dec. 20, 1873, Governor Noyes to-day received 4 telegram from A@jatant General Knapp, Who weat to Dennison ‘vo investigate the necessity for interference by the that a reward of | NEW YORK HERALD, TUESQAY, DECENSER 30, 16 strixing engmeers and firemen. He reports that on the arrival of a militia company from Sicuren- ville order was easily resto! and has been since maintained without difficulty, He antici- pates no further trouble. Three trains arrived to-day in charge of master mechanics and assist- ance from Cincinnati, Pittsburg and Indianapolis. Tllinois Engineers Sympathize With the Strike, Curcaco, Dec. 29, 1873. The members of tlie Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers in this city have passed resolutions that they are not disposed to submit to any reduction oi the wages that they were receiving prior to December 1, as that rate was low enough, although it Fpl general satisiaction. hey also tendered their sympathy and promised their support to all engineers now opposing, or who may hereafter oppose, any reduction of their These resolutions are published and signed by committees trom the Tilinois Central, Chicago and Alton, Rock Isiand, Chicago, Burling: ton and Quincy, Milwaukee and St. Paul and tae Michigan Central railroads. THE EFFECT IN NEW YORK. Thus far the railroad troubles consequent upon the engineers’ strike have not affected any other but the lines uncer lease to the Pennsylvania Ratl- road Company west of Pittsburg. None of the Eastern, Northern, Southern or Western roads | (except those just mentioned) have suspended a single trip owing to this cause, and nothing of the kind is anticipated. A number of the railroad agencies in this city were visited yesterday by a HERALD reporter for the purpose of ascertaining what effect the engi- neers’ strike on the Pennsylvania Kailroad had upon their several roads, The uniiorm answer re- ceived was, “Not the remotest.”’ No dificulties with the engineers 18 anticipated on any other railway lines, Yhere seems to be considerable anxiety mant- fested by those who control the Pennsylvania Rail- road Company concerning the trouble, judging from passing events. Ail the magnates oj the road have congregated in Philade!phia, where it 1s expected some acrion towards a compromise will be had very soon and measures adopted to put an end to the strike. On Saturday Mr. Thomas A. Scott, Vice Presiden: Mr. J. McCreighton, General Western Agent; as well as Mr. D, Solomon, the Fiscal Agent of the Pennsylvania Ratiroad Company, resident here, left the city for Philadeiphia. The Post Office authorities state that no delay | has thus far occurred in the arrival of the Western | | mails since the strike has been inaugurated; but, incase such should happen, the mails will be traus- ferred to the other railroads, What Is Said by the Engineers. Areporter of the HsRaLp called upon several engineers of the New York Central Railroad and obtained their views of the strike which is at present in operation at the West. These views may be summed up as follows The Brotherhood of Engineers, which has an ex- istence throughout the country, does not support these men directly, because, like any other trades union, it requires a majority of the men belonging to the Brotherhood to decide upon a strike, which vote has not been taken, and were it taken would fail, because, though on some roads the men are dissatisfied, on the largest number matters are as satisfactory to them as they can expect. They (the engineers interviewed) did not approve of the strike, because the reduction of ten per cent in the wages of the men was not enough to strike about when it was known that the same reduction had been made with every salaried man in the em- ploy of the company. The men on strike, there- fore, would not be supported in funds by the Brotherhood, though it would not be diMecnit tor them to receive help from the men who did not ; Strike but sympathized with them in various por- tions of the country, One of the engineers interviewed, who runs from this city to Albany, said that the men out West were alraid that this present reduction of 10 per | cent was only a forerunner of a further reduction said to be contemplated in a few days by the company, and that the first reduction was made to try tue temper of the men. The manner in which vhe reduction nas beea taken is proof suMcient that they will not take any further one in a very mud spirit, and it may be said that the strike, if not of itself successful, will do goud in this way, and an ultimate benefit will be derived from it, not only to temselves but to engineers ail over the country. “The strike,’ continued the same engineer, “is confined to tne roads leased by the Pennsylvania | Company and does not extend in any way to the Pennsylvania Central Ratiroad, which has almost | the same officers, president of one and vice president of the other, If any reduction is attempted on the Pennsylvania Central he had no doubt that strikes wouid take place in the same way. He did not anticipate any trouble on the Central, as Mr. Vanderbilt and the men had come to an understanding some weeks ago, and there was no probability of its being broken. The Brotherhood of Engineers had a very large membership, there being probably some thousands | Of members attached to the society. The head- quarters were in the West. THE NEW JERSEY DIVISION. The Strike Fixed for New Year’s Day— Prospect of an Amicable Adjustment, In accordance with the resolution adopted by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers at their meeting in Philadelptia on Sunday last, next Thursday at noon is the time fixed for the strike of the engineers on the New Jersey branches of the Pennsylvania Railroad, Accordingly there was great anxiety manifested yesterday by the whole staf’ of employés along the line, especially at Jersey City, Newark, New Brunswick, Tren- ton, Bordentown and Camden. Late reports from Trenton last night set forth that there was great excitement among the railroad employés there when the order for the strike was promul- gated, A rumor was in circulation that, in conse- quence of the determined attitude of the en- gineers, tne railroad company would rescind the order for the 10 per cent reduction, but irom most reliable information obtained by a HERALD reporter the company Will not recede from its position, at least for the present. The reduction of wages ap- plies to employés of every graae irom the Presi- dent of the railroad down to the deck hands on | the ferryboats, 1 While the order for a reduction will not be coun- termanded just now, the public will be glad to | learn that there isa prospect of an amicable ad- | justment of the difficulty in the New Jersey divi- | Sion. ‘The relations between the officers and men | are of not merely a Kindly, but even a triendiy character. Four of the engineers declared yeste: day that they would continue to work if requeste to do so by certain officials of long standing, simply as an act of reciprocal courtesy, but such @ course should not be construed into an abandonment of their protest against the recent order for reduction, These engineers belong to the days of Camden and Amboy, and they never indulged a dream that Jersey would be gobbled up by Tom Scott. Negotiations for @ settiement or the question were all but completed last evening. Ten engineers, at the solicitation of superior officers, consented to remain at tueir post and induce their brother workmen to iollow their example. THE LABOR CRISIS IN PATERSON. driest There is not much change in the aspect of al fairs in Paterson relative to the labor crisis, ex- cepting the cheerful information that the Watson Manufacturing Company huve received an order for @ $74,000 iron bridge for Peru, nearly half a mile in iength, and some $25,000 worth of work ior the Fourth avenue improvement in New York, that will require the establishment to run day and night until April 1, and necessitate the addition of about 200 men to their present force of 500. It also results in the starting up of the Passaic Rolling Mul, which prepares a good deal of tron used by the Watson Manufacturing Company. This is cer- bana A a grateiul beam of sunshine amid the gen- eral blackness of the industrial aspect of affairs. The locomotive establishments are literally dead. It is doubtiul u they ever again attain the propor- tions they had beiore the outbreak of the pant There is a Vague rumor that the Grant Works of Paterson are about being bought out by the Bald- win Locomotive Company o! Philadelphia. Another Tumor Is to the effect that there is a new locomo- tive shop to be started; but neither report is eitier confirmed or denied by those who should know, ad are, perhaps, mere canards. ‘The Paterson Board of Trade yesterday turned over to the treasurer of the Relief Committee the second $1,000 contributed by the members of the said Board individually, The Paterson Relief Committee 1s now continu- ally feeding about 3,000 persons a day. There are about 600 persons empioyed by the city at stone breaking, at @ Weekly cost of from $2, to $2,500, There has been no apparent increase in the aggre- gate amount of suffering and destitution for some weeks past. The committee is kept going entirely by voluntary contributions, which, if they con- tinne to be as liberal as they have been, will enable the winter to be passed without any greater suilering than has already been experienced.
