CimicaGo, August 27.—[Special ‘Telegram to Tir Bee]—The switchmen's strike at the Union stockyards is still on, but the railroads are making good progress in filling the places of the strike Fourteen of the twenty-five engines at the yards were running today and considerable freight wasmoved, though some d y was necessarily occasioned by the in- experience of the new men. The managers of the various railroads have been in ion the greater part of the day and are consider- ing the organization of a new switching as- sociation to take the place of the one which, by agreement, was dissolved on Monday. It is the intention that the new hall be m d_entirely by rail instead of by persons employed by the stock- yards company. 1t is the general belief that the prosent ailliculty is tho result of mis- management. There is a mass meeting of switchmen to- night under the auspices of the Switchmen's Aid society to consider the situation. Th union does not uphoid the kers and will probably induce them to return to work pro- ded their services will be nceepted by the ailroads. The Chicago & Alton strikeis de- laying business on that road, but Gene Manager Chappell thinks he will be able to fill the places of all the strikers in a few days, Three ight trains were run out today and all the passenger trains ave ranning on sched- ule time.

This morning the firemen and engincers decided not to go out in ies. support of the switchmen as it was intimated they might do. 1 n the day a number of en were sct to work under police protection. At 1 o'clock this afternoon thirteen engines were at work in the yards handling about ull the goods shippers cared to move, The chairman of the strikers' gi committee says companies doing bus the yards have made a proposition to the m to go back to work under the old scale Wil with extra time to be paid for night work, These statements are denled by rail road officials The general managers ofall roads centerin in Chicago were in session*nearly ull duy dis- cussing the strike and tho Stockyard's Switching association, The most positive action ta was the ad tion of tw utions touching a kind subject : First they declared that under no ¢ cumstances would the demand of the striking switchmen for increased pay be granted ; and sueond, lhey{ re-empha their action of Monday dissolving the switching assoolation. The switching association, while it may have been held in abeyance up to this time, is now certainly dissolved, and it is hoped' by the general managers that this will offer a speedy solution o the strike. dtaceiydor As the roads are doing their own switching, considerable time was consumed in the dis- cussion and adoption of certain needful reg- ulations to control the interchauge of freight trafic, otherwise it might lead to confusion and complication in the yards, On the question of précedence, it was re- solved that the executive board of the gen- eval marsaers shall have full aud complete ing shall settlo all disputes between the roads as to precedence of right-of-way of switchos.
