The federal supreme court has ruled that no | judge can enjoin strikers from picket duty, | that i, from conversing with strike break- | ers peaceably and with a view of yelting them to leave work and join the unicn forces. If this injunction seeks to rob us of this right, delegated to us by the highest | fudictal authority in the land, it will be deemed radical and will be opposed with all | the legitimate Influence we can command.” Quiet om Plcket Line. All was quite and peaceful in the vi- elnity of the Unlon Pacific shops last night. where the strikers' plckets have been a cusomed to patrol. No sentry ventured nearer than one block to his old baunts and only here and there a policeman, slowly treading his beat up and down the tracks Just outside the shop yards, could be seen. Back a block or two, opposite the lous entrances to the yards, lttle squads of strikers, endeavoring to obey at the same time the command of their lodges, which assigned them to picket duty, and the stern edict of the law, which forbade their presence within prescribed limits, were visible, With no desire for trouble or wish to trespass upon the company's premises the pickets sullenly disputed the right of the Unfon Pacific or the court to prevent them from performing picket duty and walking on public property if they saw fit. But by their “lodgas they had been strictly en- joined to avold any semblance of trouble. The men stationed near the Chicago street gate sald that at least fourteen non- union workmen had come out of the shope during the evening and gone into a saloon opposite the yards and then returned to the shops. A mumber of othets, they sald, Jeft and 414 not go back. These are sald to have been discharged by the company.

The doctor stated that the fatal blow could not 'have been dealt With a fist, nor was it probable that it was’ the result of a club, but of some semi-solld substance. In his judgment the most probable theory was that the fracture bad been caused by a kick. All Hls écien- tific investigation went to substantiate this theory. The doctor gave it as his opinion, Rowever, that this fatal fracture was the result of more than one blow. ‘He opposed the teory that it was produced with a olub, as contact of (Wo solid substances produced an incioed wound and the injury which caused Caldwell's death was mot of that character. Such an injury ‘might have been caused by a fall on a semi-solid sub- stance, sald the doctor. Aside from the fatal injury Dr. Lavender stated that Oalwell bore a-incised wound on the forehead, just above the right eye, deep tissue brulses over the-left temple, @iscoloration of the right eye and » slight abrasion on the chin.

E. E. Clark, grand chief of the Order of Railway Conduetors, and Patrick J. Mor- rissey, grand chief of the Brotherhood of Raflroad Tralnmen, stated today that “owing to the vastly changed conditions, as compared with those in existénce at the time the present wage scales were made, both the conductors and trdinmen belleve they are entitled to an increase of wages.” The movement was begun at & meeting of the chalrmen of the general adjustment committees held in Kansas City In June, the decision being reacheéd that an increase of from 10 to 20 per ¢ent should be de- manded. The chairmen of these committees met again in Cleveland, O., July 14, when the project was submitted to the ‘grand officers of both bodles. With a few altera- tions and corrections to conform to the organizations, it received their Indorsements. Both lodges ‘are voting and sending the returns to Kaosas City, where the joint committee will meet October 1. Should a two-thirds vote be cast in favor of de- manding an Increase in wages on one or more raliway systems, or railroads within the prescribed territory, thé committees will prepare a umiform wage scale for all parallel lines, through lines and independ- ent systems and feeders to these. “The present talk of a widespread strike is unwarranted sensationalism,’” declares Grand Chief Clark of the conductors. “‘No strike will occur; at least, not until all other means have been entirely exhausted, and then. only on a two-thirds vote of the members of the organization involved,” he added. Mr. Morrissey for the trainmen said: “If anything is done it will be along or- derly lines and in accordance with the lon ebtablished policies of the bodies affected.” Will Do Nothing Radical. CLEVELAND, O, Sept. 15.—Grand Master P. H. Morrissey of the Brotherhood of Rallway Trainmen today authorized the following statement regarding the move- ment to be inaugurated on western roads by conductors and tratumen to obtain higher wages: ‘The different stories that are arising per- taining to a movement of conductors and tralnmen in the western country for a ralse of wages are in the main inaccurate and mislea They probably grow out of the fact that an assoclation of the gen- eral committees of the Order of Ralll (o «Ccnductors and the Brotherhood of nan’- way ‘Trainmen for this tefritory was formed at Kansas City in June, at which time the question of increases for men in train and yard service was discussed.
