Dec. 4—A quarrel between ent Whitney of the Brothe hood of Rallway Trainmen and President Hawley of the Switchmen's union is the Jatest slement injected into the strike. Whitney, who hurried to Dulyh from Buffalo In response to a demand from-the switchmen who ~are members of the Brotherhood, declares the switchmen were not glven an opportunity to vote on the stAike In accordance with section 213 of thelr constitution. Hawley retorts that the men were given the opportunity and the vote was taken. Whitney also says T per ocent of the switchmen at the head of the lakes are members of the Brotherhood and will not abide by the order and to this Hawley replled that only three of the Brotherhood have returned to work. Whitney says the Switchmen's Union ot North America, in calling the strike, were “unfalr to the Brotherhood, unfalr with thelr own members ahd unfalr with the rallroads."” To this last statement President Hawley retorted tode; “Whitney temptible excuse for to go back as scab: Two hundred strike breakers arrived here today from Cleveland and Cincinnatl.

WIth both sides professing confidence as 10 the outcome the fourth day of the strike began with no apparent progress made to- ward a settlement' of the controversy. While the switchmen still clalm to have the situation in hand -the rallroads have been making headway by their steady im- portation of new men to take the places of the strikers and today they promise to handle more freight than at any time since the strike began. They claim that as soon as all of the new men now on thelr way arrive and be- come familiar with the yards mormal con- djtions will be established. . Reports fiom Duluth say that the sirike at the head of the lakes {s practically broke, but in the Twin Citles the rallroads have not been able to handle any volume of business. Discussion among various business or- ganizations of the Twin Citles yesterday is expected to result in some definite move- ment to bring the rallroads and switchmen together for a conference today. The raii- road officials say, however,“that they will make no concessions and If the switcamen return to work it will have to be under the same conditions that prevailed before the strike. Knapp and Neill in Washingto: WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.—Chairman Mar- tin A. Knapp of the Interstate Commerce commission and Dr. Charies P. Nelll, com- missioner of labor, members of the medita- tion board under the Erdman act, re- turned to Washington today from St. Paul, Minn., where they had been endeavoting to adjust the controversy between the Switchmen's Union of North America and the northwestern railroads. It is unlikely they will be called again into the controversy. Neither Chafrman Knapp nor Dr. Nelll would discuss the situation for publica- tion. Both agreed, however, that it was serious. .~ Freight Blocksde Brokem. CHICAGO, Dec. 3.—Traffic managers of the various rallroads running through the northwest today issued orders to recelve sll freight consigned to points on- their lines without restrictions. The “subject to delay” notices posted when the strike of switchmen began were withdrawn. The | managers deciared that within a few days the conditions would again be pormal, BEATTLE, Wash, Dec. 3—The freight blackade, due to the switchmen's strike, is being broken and operating officlals be- lleve that normal conditions will be re- stored in four or five days. Perishab)é freight in limited amount is being recelved apd dead freight is ac- cepted subject to delay. atement is a lame and con- @ men that he wants RECEIVE PERISHADLE SHIPMENTS Omaha Roads Express Confidence in Ability to Handle Traffic. Following reports from St. Paul that the backbone of the switchmen's strike has been broken, rallroads having terminals in Omaha have announced that freight of all kinds will be recelved for shipment to the days local offices have refused positively to receive perishable goods of any kind. “We are prepared to handle all kinds ef freight,” sald Lyman Sholes, division frelght and passenger agent for the Chi- cago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha rall- | road. “Last night we sent a special train | of fresh meats from South Omaha to north- ern points, including St. Paul, Minneapolis {and Duluth and we anticipate no trouble in delivery.” Trains running into the Union and Bur- lington stations during the day were gen- erally on time. No trouble was experfenced by the Burlington route at Billings, Mont., where most of the switchmen left thelr work. The delays In trains during the day were caused mostly by the storm In the northwest. Union Pacific train No. 6, the Portland train, due at 6:46 a. m., did not arrive un tl 5 o'clock in the afternoon. This traln alone felt the effects of the strike in the northwest and was also delayed enroute by the storm. | Omana officials have been advised of the demands of the Brotherhood of Rallway Trainmen on the lines cast of Chicago, asking for a raise of 10 per cent in wages. They request an answer from railroad managers by December 1. The a trip east of Judge Loveit, president of | the Harriman system, who was scheduled | to reach Omaha during the day, ‘may have a bearing on this case. S hur Pulver Bound Over. 1 WILCOX, Neb., De¢. 4.—(Special)—How- ard J, Piver had his preliminary hearing in Minden before County Judge Carrico and also his trial. He is charged with assault- ing with intent to do great bodily Injwy | George A. Dally, a fellow townsman, and | with 'assauit and battery upon one H, A Cox, another fellow townsman. He was bound over to the district court for the former and fined $40 and costs on the lat- ter. The trouble it seems Is an aftefmath to the saloon contests in which Daily and | Cox took active part against the granting of saloons, two times defeating the propo- | sition. Each time Howard Pulver was much interested, as he had been hired as| bartender. It secems that someone turned out the horses from Cox's barn and afte ward set fire to it and it burned to the ground. It was after the fire had done its damage that the trouble arose petween the defendant and complaining witnesses. It seems that the assault was unprovoked. covp——— Watches—FRENZER—1bth and Dodge DECEMBER ! north and northwest.
