(Special To The Evening News.)
CHICAGO, 111., Sept. 6. The first
actual strike in the impending labor
war on the Western railroads may
start tomorrow, according to late re
ports received from labor headquart
ers. It is evident that the Illinois
Central system will be the first line
effected inasmuch as the officials of
that road have utterly ignored the
desires of the union men in their re
quest for a conference.
It is said here today that the mem
bers of the federation are in readi
ness to leave their positions, and are
only awaiting the sanction of the
"higher-ups." Telegrams have been
sent to the labor leaders who have
been requested to approve of the
strike today.
General Manager Kruttschnitt, of
the Southern Pacific lines, arrived
here today and spent several hours
conferring with President Markham.
of the Illinois Central system. It
may be possible that his presence in
Chicago will have a tendency to more
entangle the situation.

Minor Matters Discussed.
H. T. McClallen registered a com
plaint relative to the city authorities
in removing from the firemen's hall
(now used as a council chamber),
certain articles owned exclusively by
members of the department. Mr.
McClullen Bald that some thoughtless
person had removed the lace cur
tains from the windows, together
with the official album and a picture
of the late Aaron Rose, and that
the same had boen carelessly relegat
ed to the storage room. A picture
of the original " department of the
city was also,1 iuded In the "con
fiscated" propt , and In the hustle
to remove It from the hall had boen
broken. He asked that the articles
be restored to their proper places out
of respect for the members of the
department. Upon the motion of!
Councilman Mfcelli the marshal was;
instructed to replace the articles In
the hall, and repair such damage as,
resulted In their removal.
Upon motion of Councilman!
Josephson, sanctioned by Mayor j
Huynes, the recorder was authorised
to return tho certified check posted!
by the Oregon Gas Company at the
time they were given a franchise of
the streets and alleys of the city.
The check was in the sum of $5, P00,
and was held by the city pending
the action of the gas company to
ward repairing certain streets alleg
ed to have been damaged In laying
their mains. Mayor Huynes said last
night that most of the streets had
boon repaired as requested, and con
sequently the company was entitled
to the check.
Fred Wright complained rogardlng
a number of hydrants alleged to be
ornctirally out of commission. The
matter of placing them In proper
condition was referred to the Are and
water committee.
The city Improvement reported
'bat they had repaired the Bouth end
if the Deer Creek bridge, and that
che same was at present in good
