STRENG
(By Soripps News Areociatlon)
Helena Aug 7 The telegraphers of
the great Northern railroad made a
distinct gain Ilast night, wbea the
conductors ot the Rocky Mountain
division In their meeting determined
hereafter to refuse to take train orders
over the telephone or move trains by
"flag orders" Also owing to the faot
that another fieight wreck has occur
red on the Great Northern : and that
mrm uuita anoeAeafut lr
Induolng the atrluk breakers in leav
ing their positions, gives them hope
of winning. There are practically no
other developoaenta. ' Woth wrecks
were due to defeotive tlangea but
erved to delay tratfio a nnreber of
hours. Paoiflo trains sre all from four
lo five hours late.
St Panl Aag 7 The atatement by
General manager Horn of the Northern
Paoiflo today says that rapid progress
toward a normal oonditlon la blng
made and that on every division eighty
per cent of the age its positions are
being filled and that seventy per sent
of the operators positions are filled
and that the engineers '' chairman
denies the published statement that
the engineers bad offered their services
At the telegraphers headquarters al
thia Is discounted as an assertion ot
little basis.
