MAKES A CHEERFUL REPORT Buperintendent MoKeem Says OCompany's Motive Power is Exosllent. UNION PACIFIC SUFFERS BUT LITTLE Rallrond’s Claims at Direct Variance with Those of Strikers as to Conditions of Road and ® “Our motive power is In as good It not bet- ter condition than it was six months age and we have enmough engines altogether to run us through the busy season or' untll said Superintendent MoKeen of the motive power department of the Union Pa- cific yesterday. Mr. MoKeen returned Sun- day after making & tour of the road and visiting the shops as far west as Denver and Cheyenne. Commenting further, Ae ““The Union Pacific is doing a tremendous business in the pasenger as well freight lines ,despite claims to the contrary, made in view of the strike which has been in progress for several weeks. Instead of our §00d_engines being lald up tor repairs and substituted entirely by.old ones that have not been In wervice for years, we have all the engines we need and they are in good condition. Our new boiler inspector, Mr. Hemple, who made the trip with me, pro- nounced them in first claes order. In fact, that s the official report that was made to President Burt.” Asked it the company would be able to meet the extra demands which the large grain shipments this fall would make upon its motive power and train facilities, Mr. McKoen sal “We shall bave no trouble whatever in transporting all the grain the company ia asked to transport so far as emgines Concerned. There may be some difculty in getting enough firemen and en. giveers and possibly enough cars, but there is certataly no likelihood of englnes and I don’t mean to convey that we will experience a shortage of I siaply mean that in proportion we more available engines than freight cas 1 state this that you may understand som thing of the excellent comdition of our mo- tive power. Not Hard to Understand. “But that ought not to be hard to un- derstand, when you consider that when this strike staried our engines were in t! best possible condition and they were o Bumerous too, that even if failures had been so frequent as they have been rep- temented, our motive power would still not be dangcrously erippled. There is another very essential point to- be considered In this connection, that ls, that all our en- glnes were comparatively n: Bot any in service are much over three years old. It is not true that all our best engines have been dllepidated and shelved and replaced by the ones of the old series, which for some time were abandoned. Of course, wi bave & few old ones in u partioularly due to the baving a few engines fal ©f fact, that is to be “What sbout those eighty mew engin which the company wes to get from the were sent 16 the Unlon Pacific during the present labor troubles, He expressed.thié bellef that the men in the eastern shops, at least in the Baldwin Locomotive works, are not bound by the umions, so as to.be subject to the influence of the Union Pacific strikers. Tracks Not Blocked. Mr, McKeen denled that the switch tracks at Cheyemne and other ‘places along the road were blocked by loadel freight cars that were walting for - e them. He stid the tracks were clear and trains were running In good order. He also denled thst it had become necessary to “doubl all trains up the Chey- enne hill because of defective engine boil- era. Regarding forces mow at work in the shops, they are adequate in most ocases, #ccording to Mr. McKeen's statements, At Cheyenne, he says, there are seventy ma- chinists as against’ elghty or ninety before the strike and twenty-two boller makers, which is more than formerly. The boller makers' work there, he says, | ahbead of the machivists that engines are awaiting the passed through the hands of Four engines were turned out Cheyenne shops last week, he the force has been mmu lx s greater yolume of wol there hereafter.

Mr. MoKeen peports that at Denver Thursday an attempt was made by two strikers to wreck an engine, which resulted in the arrest of both men and the appre- hension of the secretary of the local ma- ebiuist's lodge. The alleged would-be wreczers were machinists. They are said to have ridden their wheels out of tke city which the latter in- proceed to a certain polat and wreck the engitie.

The report states that the company is converting some of the shop buildings. into dormitortes and restaurants for its employes, who will be thur kept as long as there is any sem- blance of a strike. gy Y May Go Out Again Teday. It is probable Superintendent McKeen will leave the city agaln this mor for another visit to the western shops, to be gone perhaps another week. District Secretary Grace received another series of reports of engine fallures yes- terday from the west. Rawlins reports all trains late and the roundhouse fliled with erippled engines. The report specifies e delay of each train by its number and |#ays the off-time is from two to ten hours. | Viee President Wilson sald yesterday that the strikers were more determined than ever and, that not omly were they unaaimous in their stand against returning to work until their original demands were granted, but that many were mow deter- mined never to go back to the shops until the company agreed to remunerate them for the time lost In the strike, as well as grant the demands which caused the trouble. Asked if this was not rather an unusual and unreasonable position, Mr. Wilson sald he could mot say as to that, but that at any rate there was a growing sentiment among the strikers in favor of it. ‘What seemed to be the lrony of fate belell a couple of the monunion men who bave been at work in the Omaha shops yesterday. Early in the day some of the men manifested a very strong desire to spend the Sabbath day “seeing the sights” about town. The authorities agreed to grant this privilege to about fifteen of the men, who' were to conceal themselves in a boxcar and slipped off the premises to the Unign station neighborhood, there to tecelve their liberty for the day under cer- tain restrictions—restrictions that would imsure their safe return to the shops dur- ing the evening. But ihe plans had been lald without any thought of the strikers' pickets, who were werming the grounds waiting for the “thing to drop,” having been in close touch with the plans from the start. When the time came for the box car to make its surrepti- tious departure twelve men took their places inside, but only two stayed until the ear reached the depot. Those two probably are in the car yet, for when last seen by the pickets the car was secursly locked and on its way to Kansas City. Late in the afternoon fifteen new recruits from Chicago arrived at the shops, They came In over the Northwestern, having been privately transported from Council Blufts by the Union Pacific. 'This is the regular payday for the forces in the shops, but it Is rumored that the campany will restrict payments to & certain extent as a means of preserving their forces, If this scheme Is resorted to It is belleved there will be & general uprising among the men.
