Minor Topics.
Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 24. The skulk
ing strikers, under cover of darkness
continue acts of lawlessness, but .it is
the belief that if a conference is held,
which Sweeney is- working . so : hard to
bring about, the result will be an aban
donment of the strike. The plan, it
now said, is to let the strike down easy,
The conference will advise peace. Grand
Master Sweeney will yield gracefully
and the striking switchmen will go back
to their places if they can, or will seek
work elsewhere. This is admittedly
critical point of the trouble. Sargent is
made of different stuff from that
Sweeney. He says that no matter if the
vote was unanimous to strike, he would
not approve it if in his judgement he did
not consider it prudent; and further
more, however much he may be in favor
of going out with the switchmen, the
firemen will not do so unless all other
railroad organizations go out.
A loaded freight train was pulling out
from Niagara falls, when the switch east
-of Lewiston avenue was thrown open
The engine and four cars had already
passed, so the train broke - in two and
the rear and greater portion sped toward
the bridge of the Michigan Central track
As soon as the gatcman Isaw the train
-coming he made a hurried effort to open
the gate, but before he could do so the
-cars dashed into it and he was struck
and had two ribs broken, his hand hurt,
ana otherwise injured. The train was
running eighteen miles an hour, and
when it came to a stand it was all on
the bridge. After the collision, the
switchman had his lantern kicked out
of his hand by a byBtander.
Gov. Flower, referring to the strike,
say 8 : "The strikers made a bad move at
the beginning. . If they bad gone to
work and had the president of the Cen
tral arrested for violatingoneof the laws
of the state, they could have had him
convicted and fined $500 or imprisoned
for one year. Last winter the legislature
passed a law making ' it obligatory for
railroad companies to give a day's pay
for ten hours and to pay extra for all
over that. I signed the bill and the
strikers had a good chanco to make a
test case. Why did they not do that?"
Vice-President Webb, of the New
York Central, said : "The strike, in my
opinion, is broken. It cannot -extend
-eastward. There is a slight chance of
Sweeney ordering a strike in the west,
but even that is a slim chance. The
men acted rashly and hastily, and have
lost the fight. The sooner they recog
nize that, the better."
The board of moderation and arbitra
tion has decided to begin investigation
into the cause of the switchmen's strike
today. Summoning of witnesses begun
yesterday. Grand Master Sargent, of
the firemen's organization, 1b awaiting
the arrival of the executive officers of
the other railway unions, whom Grand
Master Sweeney has invited here in con
ference. E. E. Clark, grand master of the or
der of railway conductors, arrived this
morning. "I am here," said he, "in
response to the invitation of grand mas
ter Sweeney, of the switchmen's union."
He said, as far. as he knew, the con
ductors have no grievances to right. He
thought the demands of the switchmen
were just, but strongly condemned law
lessness. Clark was accompanied by
grand master Wilkinson, of the order of
Tailway trainmen, of Galesburg.
A dastardly attempt ' was made to
wreck the express on the Pennsylvania
road due at Beading from Philadelphia
at 8 o'clock last night. The train
dashed into four heavy timbers placed
across the track. Fortunately only the
rear wheels of the locomotive jumped
the track, l he lives of 100 passengers
were imperiiea.
