STRIKE 18 HELD UP
Wabash Employes Will Ap
peal to Court,
WANT INJUNCTION RAISED
Trackmen Offer to Help Trainmen
and Firemen Ramsey Issues' Ad
dress to Employes, Denying
Hostility to Unions.
ST. LOUIS.-March 4. Everything In the
strike situation on the Wabash now
hinges on the Injunction wnlch the labor
leaders will attempt to have dissolved, and
until this Is done away with there can be
no strike, for they have agreed to obey
the court's order. E. T. Irwin, of Peoria,
and E. V. Penny, of Cleveland, attorneys
for the trainmen, spent the day in con
ference with Messrs. Morrissey and Ar
nold and other union leaders, examining
the petition on which the Injunction waa
issued and preparing an answer that will
be presented in court probably tomorrow
to secure a dissolution of the restraining
order.
Grand Master Wllklns. of the Track
men's Association, met Messrs. Hanrahan
and Morrissey today and assured them
that his men, 2000 strong, were ready to
support the trainmen and firemen, and
would leave work at their bidding.
At Wabash headquarters President
Ramsey said:
'Everything Is running smoothly, and
there are no indications that our men
have gone out or will soon. I have not
seen the members of the grievance com
mittee today, and know nothing of what
is transpiring at their headquarters."
Asked as to the effect of a sympathetic
strike on the part of tho trackmen, 2000 of
whom Grand Master "Wilkinson says are
ready to support the trainmen and firemen
If they go out President Ramsey said:
"It would have very little effect on the
situation. In case of a strike we could
get all the men we should need to take the
places of strikers in all departments."
The following statement was Issued to
day from Wabash headquarters:
Company's Side of Case.
"To tho Employes of the Wabash Rail
road Company and Others Interested:
The crisis now existing on the Wabash
lines is a very grave one, not only to the
Wabash company and its employes and
to other railroad companies and their em
ployes, but also to the commercial and
industrial interests of the country, as a
strike on the Wabash would in all proba
bility spread to a large number of other
roads, and would Involve not only or
ganizations of railway employes, but
other labor organizations, and the results
might be so serious that the great anthra
cite coal strike would dwindle Into Insig
nificance. Therefore I deem it wise to
keep the employes all over the system
and the public correctly advised of the
exact facts regarding the matters at Issue.
For this reason only I make reply to
statements made by Mr. Morrissey In the
morning papers.
"The first is personal to the president
of the Wabash. Mr. Morrissey says: For
years he (Mr. Ramsey) had boasted of his
contempt for labor organizations. He
liked the distinction it brought him of
being the one managing officer in this
section who could get along without them.
Every previous effort of the employes, to
meet and deal with him has proved fu
tile Not Opposed to Unions.
"This statement Is absolutely without
truth. I have never expressed 'contempt
for labor organizations. (I may have for
some hot-headed leader who advocates the
rule-or-ruln policy.) On the contrary, I
have frequently said to labor leaders,
members and others that I had no ob
jection to them when properly and con
servatively conducted, and when they did
not absolutely ignore individual rights or
obligations. There are hundreds of or
ganized men on the Wabash who know
this; there are dozens who were employed
by me after tho strike of 1894 (two years
after I became connected with the Wa
bash), who offered to leave their associa
tion to get back, to whom I said: 'That is
not necessary. I do not care what or
ganizations you belong to, so you are rea
sonably loyal to tho company and good
workmen.' I have never discharged or
declined to employ any one on account of
membership In an organization. The Wa
bash employes are treated as men, with
all their rights as individuals recognized,
and as long as they recognize the rights
of tho other fellow-employes and give fair
service to the company they have the
right to join any church or organization
political, labor or other kind they wish.
"During my S3 years with this and other
roads I have never failed to meet any
committee of employes or any individual
employe who wished to see me, and I have
met every committee now here several
times, and three of these meetings were
with Messrs. Hanrahan, Lee and Wilkin
son present. I meet such committees
knowing they are members of organiza
tions 'duly constituted I only say to
them, 'Your grievances are as employes
of the Wabash'; and then we confer as
employes.
"Mr. Morrissey says: Mr. Ramsey
bluffed and cajoled tho men The Wa
bash men are men of some experience,
and know enough not to be 'bluffed and
cajoled' by me, except in one way, and
that is by fair treatment and fair pay.
Tho truth is, the 'bluffing and cajoling"
has been entirely on tho 'part of the or
ganization leaders. For the past two
years they and their aids have been urg
ing the Wabash employes to 'force the
issue and, although their committees
have been around for two or three months,
they could never get, and have not now,
a fair committee of the system, although
threats of taking lodge charters and ex
pelling members were made.
"JOSEPH RAMSEY, JR."
Will Have Injunction Raised.
In speaking of Mr. Ramsey's statement
and of the general situation. P. H. Mor
rissey, grand master of the Brotherhood
of Railway Trainmen, said to the Associ
ated Press tonight!
"AH I have to say regarding Mr. Ram
sey's statement is that I do not care to
enter into a wordy contest through the
press with Mr. Ramsey, because it would
not Interest the public and I do not think
it would be profitable to either of us.
The public has my statement as well as
his and can judge between the two.
"We are going to take steps to dissolve
that Injunction. I cannot say just when
It will be accomplished, but possibly in a
cay or two. Our attorneys arrived here
today and we will employ local attorneys.
They will confer together and take the
proper .steps at the proper tlmq."
'Arc you in -favor of arbitration?"
"Our organization ia committed to the
policy of arbitration," Mr. Morrissey re
plied. W. G. Lee. first vice-grand master of
the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
said tonight:
"Railroad employes all over the country
ere watching this situation very closely.
All day I have been receiving telegrams
of inquiry and many times was called to
the long-distance telephone."
WAXT TROOPS RECALLED.
People of Colorado City Protest
Agralnst Their Presence.
DENVER, Colo.. March 4. Mayor J. F.
FauilKicss. Chief of Police George G.
Birdsau and City Attorney John Mc
Goach, of Colorado .City, have protested
to Governor Peabody against the presence
of the troops in that city on account of
the strike at tha ore reduction mills. In
their message to the Governor they say:
"There has been no disturbance more
than a few occasional brawls, since the
strike began, and we respectfully protest
against an army being placed In our
midst. A delegation of business men will
call on you with a formal protest of the
citizens of tho city."
Governor Peabody said today that he
had received some protests on account of
his sending the state troops to Colorado
City, but that he was satisfied that he
had only done his duty.
"The troops will stay there," he de
clared, "just as long as they are needed
to protect property, and when they are
no longer needed, they will at. once be
ordered home."
TROOPS DOING GUARD DUTY.
Citizens of Colorado City Protest
Against State Interference.
COLORADO tJITY, Colo., March 4.
The troops sent here by Governor Pea
body are doing- duty about the Ore Re
duction mills, which are operating with
nonunion men. There has been no dis
turbance of any kind here today.
The following petition, protesting
against Governor Peabody's action In
sending militia here, has been signed by
G00 citizens, including the Mayor and city
officials:
"To His Excellency, the Governor of
Colorado: We, the undersigned citizens
of Colorado City, beg leave to call your
attention to a few facts regarding the in
dustrial condition of our city, caused by
the Mill and Smeltermen's Union strike,
and also to protest against the militia of
the state being called out at this time, as
follows:
"First, the strike has so far been con
ducted in an orderly manner, and no vio
lence has been done, except petty quar
rels by individuals.
"Second, the situation is completely un
der the control of the proper peace offi
cers of Colorado City and the Sheriff of
the county.
"Third, there is no occasion whatever.
nor is there any need at this time, for
the chief executive of our state to send
or contemplate lending the state troops
in anticipation of possible riots. The
strikers know the law, and the leaders
and the men now on strike are among
our best citizens and are old residents of
El Paso County, who respect law and
order.
"Fourth, these men do not go armed and
are under complete control of their leaders.
who advise them at all times to respect
the proper authorities."
Ringleader in Riot Arretted.
COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo., March 4.
The military Is still on guard at the
mills and there has been no clash with
the strikers. Deputy Sheriffs this evening
arrested C H. McCoy, alleged to be one
of the ringleaders In the riots Monday
evening, in which several men were seri
ously Injured. Sentries tonight fired on
men approaching the Standard mill who
refused to halt No one was Injured.
GENERAL STRIKE THREATENED.
Longshoremen Join Canadian Pacific
Clerics and Freight Handlers.
VANCOUVER, B. G. March 4. The
strike of the United Brotherhood of Rail
way Employes against the Canadian' Pa
cific Railway Is apparently assuming more
serious proportions than the company an
ticipated. Developments came rapidly to
day, and a settlement seems no nearer
this evening than when the strike was
Inaugurated last Friday. The Vancouver
water front is now practically tied up.
The longshoremen, in sympathy with the,
striking clerks and freight handiers, have
refused to discharge the cargo of the Em
press of India upon her arrival from
Hong Kong. In consequence of all this
the Canadian Pacific Railway has Issued
a circular to all shippers notifying them
that the company must decline to receive
any freight for shipment by rail or water
until the present difficulty is adjusted.
The Vancouver Board of Trade proffered
its services as mediator, and the offer
has been accepted by the executive com
mittee of the strikers, but declined by
the railway company. The company Is
willing to accept mediation by a com
mittee composed of the company's own
employes, whose unions have recognition
at headquarters.
Practically all the unions of Vancouver
have indorsed the strike and have pledged
moral and financial support to the strik
ers. The New Westminster and Revel
stoke members of the brotherhood are out
No further word has been received from
Nelson and Winnipeg, but from the last
advices received he members of the
United Brotherhood of Railway Employes
there stated that they were only await
ing the word from their Vancouver brethren.

Chicago Elevated Railway Employes
Issue Ultimatum.
CHICAGO. March 4. An -ultimatum,
the rejection of which will mean a strike
on the Metropolitan Elevated Road, was
issued last night at a meeting of division
SOS, of the Amalgamated Association of
Street Railway Employes of America.
The session continued until early this
morning. The action of the committee
was indorsed In suspending negotiations
with the company because of Its alleged
Insistence on a provision stipulating that
the employes should work with nonunion
men. The committee was instructed to
submit to the company an ultimatum, the
chief specification of which is to the ef
fect that the union members shall not use
coprcjon or undue influence to bring the
present employes of the road Into the or
ganization, but requiring thatr all new
employes shall be union men.
MAY INVOLVE WHOLE CITY.
Dispute at Spokane Gas Works In
terests All Unions.
SPOKANE, March 4. A great strike, in
volving every union workman In Spokane,
is threatened as the result of the trouble
between the unions and the Spokane Falls
Gaslight Company. The proposition was
discussed at the meeting of the Trades
Council last night, and, it is understood,
has been submitted to a vote of the unions
that they may express their choice.
The unions are very strongly organized
here, their membership being estimated as
high as 3000 to 4000. Such a strike as
Is now threatened would tie up nearly all
building, nearly all factories and might
even close the stores and restaurants.
Should the unions vote In favor of the
strike, it is said that March 25 is the date
chpsen for it and it is proposed to con
tinue It till the fight with the gas company
is won.

CAUSES CARDINALS TO DELAY IX

Leo Obeys Orders of Doctor to Rest
Cold at His Great Arc Pro
nounced Canse of Danger.
ROME, March 4. Although the pope Is
in good health hbs physicians have Im
posed complete repose for the present.
Consequently he will receive no one until
the end of npxt week.
The alarmists are again to the fore this
evening, and declare that Pope Leo is
really 111. They point to the official note
in tonight's paper stating that by advice
of his doctor the pope has decided to take
several "days' absolute rest.
The truth is, the pope never succeeded
in getting rid of the cold, which caused a
slight cough and- hoarseness. Dr. Lap
ponl. on visiting his holiness today, found
that he was somewhat better, but frankly
told him that he must either consent to
cure his cold or he would run the risk of
something serious. The pontiff thereupon
gave way and promised to suspend his au
diences. The condition of the pope, taking Into
consideration his advanced age. Is not
without danger, and Is causing consider
able anxiety so much so that It Is as
serted that some cardinals who have come
to Rome from a distance have postponed
their departure.
GERMANS ENTER PROTEST.
Political Economists Condemn Mon
roe Doctrine as Empty Pretense.
BERLIN, March 4. "Tho Monroe Doc
trine la an empty pretension, behind
which is neither energetic will nor actual
power."
Thus Professor Adolph "Wagner, the cele
brated political economist of Berlin, gives
hia reply to two questions submitted by a
correspondent, whether the Monroe Doc
trine was In a moral sense as binding as
international law and what action seems
dictated, first In the Interest of the Ger
man people and then In the interest of
Europeans.
"Scarcely could such a doctrine be
forced upon a conquered people after ex
traordinary victories," continues the pro
fessor. "No people and no great ruler
ever proclaimed such a doctrine. Neither
England nor Russia, nor Napoleon at the
height of his power, ever made a similar
pretension. But not even the United
States' predominant Interests are behind
this unheard of assumption: South Amer
ica is neither geographlcaUy or histori
cally so well connected with North Amer-
to the wall, because it Is Indispensable to
the world's civilization and is a necessary
complement to Germanic culture; this ap
plies to Italy and France and even to
Spain. What do we Germans owe to
them? What would our civilization be
without Italy or without France? They
areas indispensable to us as the classic
peoples were. No objective member of the
Germanic race can wish to see the world
exclusively Germanic, but If we once con
cede to the United States predominance
in South America, according to the Monroe
pretensions, would German interests be
promoted thereby? "Would not we Ger
mans be completely pressed to the wall
by the English element on both sides of
the sea? We really have no interest In
furthering the preponderance of the Unit
ed States and England or both. The
world's civilization would hardly be ad
vanced thereby.
"Aside from some technical and busi
ness specialties, what have the United
States done of importance for the real
civilization of the world? What have
they done that has deserved to be named
in the same breath with the achievements
of Italy and France? Middle. Western .
and Southern Europeans, hold yourselves '
together against the East as well as the '
far West. That seems to me to be the '
only right answer to the Monroe preten- '
sions. The Germanic peoples should not '
act against, but should act with the Ro- '
manic peoples. That would serve the true
Interests of the civilization of the world."
Professor Edward von Hartmann, the
philosopher, declined to'dlscuss the ques
tion, because, he said. It was "Inexpedient,
since the Americans make capital out of
both affirmative and negative answers."
He added:
"An Indorsement of the Monroe Doc
trine, however hedged with qualifications,
would be accepted as a recognition of the
programme, while the merest theoretic
criticism would be interpreted as express
ing Germany's plans fOr conquest and the
American people would be called on to re
sist the same. Silence is best."
Baron von Uhdklerchle, a member of
the Prussian Diet, and editor of the Berlin
Post, wrote:
"The Monroe Doctrine Is, from the stand
point of international law, a non-binding
monologue whose enforcement Is purely
a question of force. Germany's interests,
however are so little touched by the doc
trine, at least as interpreted in the Vene
zuelan Incident, that we have no practical
need for opening the question."
Professor von Hensdelbruck, of Berlin
University, discussing Venezuela in the
Prussische Jahrbuecher. alludes to the
"perfidious nature" of the American policy,
and advocates an alliance between Great
Britain and Germany, "which," he says,
"wouid be the strongest coalition In the
world." as "while Germany covered Great
Britain's rear against Russia and France,
will charge small fees for their services.
Professor Lasser already has contributed
1000 specimens of skin diseases to the
museum, which will be carried from
place to place with laboratory appliances.
The country doctor can thus come to his
neighboring city for a week or two once
a year and hear the leaders of his pro
fession explain the latest processes for
treatment or see celebrated surgeons op
erate. The Idea of the traveling uni
versity appears to have originated with
the. late Empress Frederick, who used to
talk to Professor Renvers about it. The
Bavarian government already has made
a limited use of the suggestion.

An offer to arbitrate the difficulties camei-such a pretension, even from a North

Answering the second question regard
ing the Monroe Doctrine, Professor Wag
ner says:
"It is only the divisions of European
politics and lackjof Insight into and recog
nition of the solidarity of the Interests of
Middle, Western and Southern Europe,
which hitherto has been and will remain
the chief scat of human civilization, that
explain why Europe, why Germany even,
takes this empty pretension into considera
tion, for every European practical course
will naturally dep'end solely upon Its inter

many would have no fear or tne Frencn
