CHICAGO. Augr. 9. ' Following the
lead of the telegraph operators em
ployed by . the Western . Union Tele
graph Company In Chicago, the
telegraphers in nine other cities
throughout the United States quit work
today. The ROO men employed by the
Postal in Chicago, who belong to the
same local of the Commercial Teleg
raphers' Union as the Western Union
operators, and who declare that their
working conditions with the company
sre unsatisfactory, took advantage of
the situation and auit tonight at 6
o'clock.
With the walkout of the Postal em
ployes, Chicago tonight is left with
about 35 telegraphers endeavoring to
transmit the business of both tele
graph companies, where, under normal
conditions, fully 1500 men are neces
sary to do the work.
Other Offices Struck.
The other Western Union offices
which became involved in the trouble
today, together with the number of
men who quit work, are: Salt Lake
City, 36; Helena, 40; Kansas City. 330;
Dallas, 105; Fort Worth, 40; Colorado
Springs, 10, and Denver, 83.
In New Orleans the men employed
by the Postal Telegraph Company to
night left their keys to enforce de
mands made on the company Beveral
weeks ago.
Small Checks Strike's Spread.
Late tonight the general situation
had cleared somewhat, and, whereas
I earlier in the day it appeared as if the
.strike of the commercial men would
i be universal all over the United States,
the indications now are that no fur
ther strikes will occur, for the pres-
ent at least. Under orders from Na
tional President Small, of the Teleg
raphers' Union, National Secretary
1 Russell telegraphed the secretaries of
the various locals throughout the
j country to keep their men at work
until they received further orders. Mr.
I Russell, when asked for an explana
tion of this action, said: r
"Wo don't want to use up all our
f.ram'unition in one charge."
FOSTAIj MEN JOIX IX CONTEST
Telegraph Business of Chicago Stops.
Aim to Paralyze Companies.
CHICAGO. Aug. 8. The operators of
the Postal Telegraph Company, 600 in
number, struck tonight at a few min
utes after 6 o'clock. This, with the
1100 men out from the offices of the
Western Union throughout the city,
makes, all told, 1600 men now on strike
In this city.
At a meeting of the operators held
this afternoon a resolution was unani
mously passed declaring that every op
erator in the city having a union card
should be called out. The debate on
this motion occupied the entire time
of the meeting and an adjournment
was taken as soon as the movement
was decided upon.
. Demands on Postal Company.
A short time after the meeting had
dissolved demands were presented to
the officials of the Postal Company for
an increase of 25 per cent in wages,
an eight-hour day and recognition of
the union. If these were not passed
upon, the strike was to follow. It was
the general understanding among the
operators that the demands could not
be granted at once, and the. move was
evidently intended to bring about the
strike at the present time in order to
aid the Western Union men if their de
mands were' not granted. Under the
wording of the order, all the operators
working for brokers and commission
houses will be called out in the morn
ing and business generally will be
badly handicapped.
Aim to Cripple Business.
It was said tonight by some of the
operators who were present at the
meeting that the Intention of the union
was to cripple the telegraph -faculties
of the city in every direction, and do it
so completely that public sentiment
would be brought to bear heavily upon
the two telegraph companies, and in
this manner force a settlement.
The general situation throughout
the West was becoming more serious
as the day lengthened. In addition to
the strikes reported during the fore
noon It was said that the men at El
Paso, Texas, were out, and it was
declared that those at Spokane, Wash,
ver; on the verge of a strike.
The strike at the offices of the Pos
tal Company in this city was attended
by no sign of disorder. When the
whistle was blown calling the men out,
the operators rose from their seats
with a cheer and walked out. There
was not the slightest evidence of ill
feeling on either side. The men, after
reaching the street, gave repeated
cheers and then dispersed.
The strike throughout the day has
not been marked by trouble of any
kind. Chief of Police Shlppy Informed
the leaders of the strike this after
noon that he would not allow any
picketing or violence, and he was In
formed that none was Intended, and
that every effort would be made to
keep the men peaceable.
A la?e number of the messenger
boys enloed by the Western Union
went out in sympathy with the oper
ators, and throughout the morning
they were parading the streets.
An insane man rushed Into the Cen
tral Police Station today and inquired
in an excited manner for President
Roosevelt, saying that he wanted him
to end the strike at once. He was arrested.
WESTERN UXIOX WILL FIGHT
Denies Men Have Grievance They
Say Agreement Broken.
NEW YORK, Aug. 9. The Western
Union Telegraph Company will fight the
strike of its operators In the West. East
or wherever the men may strike. It ex
pects to win, as it claims to hare won in
18S3. A strike among the 3000 operators of
Greater New York City la Imminent,
though the sentiment among the employes
Is said to be divided.
The foregoing is not an official an
nouncement, but Is an expression of
opinion concurred in both by men as
sociated wiili the executive affairs of the
Western Union and representatives of the
Commercial Telegraphers' Union made to
night. The position . taken by the com
pany is that the men have no substantial
grievance, but are in some instances the
willing and in other instances the unwill
ing victims of the prevailing "social un
rest." A man who enjoys the confidence
of highs officials of the Western Union
said tonight:
Sure Strike Will Fail.
The men have no grievance. They have
the strike fever and the younger element,
which appears to be In control In the West
and to which a period of Idleness would
work no particular hardship. Is anxious for
a showdown which will test the strength of
the organization throughout the country.
The company will fight, for a surrender
would be suicidal. A strike In New Tork
will prove a different proposition from a
contest In the West. The men are generally
younger than those employed here. In this
city are many operators who have reached
the age where their greatest efficiency Is a
thing of the past. Nevertheless, they are
still taken care 'of by the company. These
men do not. and probably would, not, go out. '
On the other hand, it was pointed out in
union circles tonight that the original
grievance against the company was in this
city and that 75 per cent of the operators
employed here are union men, prepared
to leave their keys the moment the strike
is ordered by the executive officials of the
union. A union man said tonight:
The nine operators discharged from the locar
office last Spring have not been reinstated,
as we have demanded. We purpose to see
that the company does as It has agreed to
do. We are prepared to quit work here
upon Instructions from the National officers.
The strikes In the West have, we under
stand, been the result of the directions
from the local unions of those cities. This
will not be the case here, where orders
from the chief executive will be awaited.
We- will not man wires operated at western
ends by non-union men, m'hlch Include com
pany chiefs and clerks.
None of the high Western Union offi
cials could be quoted tonight. In reply
to all inquiries the reply was, "No com
ment to make."
Although the Postal Telegraph & Cable
Company's men are out at Chicago, the
company does not consider that it Is in
volved except incidentally in the present
trouble. Subsequently the Postal peo
ple added that the business with Chicago
was going as formerly. .
Grievances of Operators.
A special meeting of the local union has
been called for Sunday' to consider the
failure of the two big telegraph compa
nies to live up to the agreement with
United States Commissioner Neill. To
night President Aheam of the local union,
said:
We have tried for the past three weeks
to secure the reinstatement of nine persons,
five men and four women, who were sus
pended on account of union affiliation some
months ago. Under the agreement made by
President dowry, of the Western Union
Telegraph Company, and Labor Commis
sioner Neill. these members were to have
been reinstated. The Western Union of
ficials have refused to reinstate these per
sons. Our members in the main office and
In the several branch offices throughout the
city have grown restless under the'r
shabby treatment. We have done every
thing In our power to prevent a telegraph
strike In this city. The Western Union
officials have used every method at their
command to bring about a strike, and If
one occurs In the city, they will be held
directly responsible for It.
Officials of the Western Union were fh
conference as were officers of the Pos
tal. Nothing of their conclusions was
made public.

STORMY
QUARREL
J. J. HILL
Reported Fist Fight
with McGuigan.
HE SUDDENLY RESIGNS OFFICE
Asked About Cause, He Says
Hill Is "Dominating."
DENIES BLOWS ARE STRUCK
Eastern Man Finds Place Uncongen
ial on Western Railroad Run by
One-Man Rule Lou la W.
Hill Involved In Case.
ST. PAUL, Aug. 9. S. P. McGuigan,
first vice-president of the Great Northern
Railroad Company, has resigned. His
resignation will not take effect nominally
until September 1, but Mr. McGuigan ad
mits that when he leaves the Great
Northern offices tomorrow afternoon, his
connection with the railroad In an active
official capacity will have ceased.
Without hesitancy, Mr. McGuigan ac
knowledged that personal differences be
tween himself and J. J. Hill had caused
his resignation. Mr. McGuigan inti
mated that his grievances had been fos
tered by alleged dictatorial methods of
Mr. Hill In conducting the affairs of the
railroad. It was rumored that the dif
ferences were of such a nature that a
personal encounter occurred.
"End your disagreements with Mr. Hill
lead either of you to attack the other
with your fists?"
"I prefer not to say anything about
that," Mr. McGuigan responded.
Mr. McGuigan came to St. Paul In April
from the Grand Trunk Railroad to be
come vice-president of the Great North
ern and almost from the-start an under
current of antagonism was manifest be
tween him and Mr. Hill. Gradually the
feeling became more and 'mors personal,
until finally last Tuesday Mr. McGuigan
decided to resign.
The crisis came yesterday at a meeting
in the Great Northern office between Mr.
McGuigan and Mr. Hill. That the meet
ing was stormy is evidenced by Mr. Mc
Guigan's decision to quit the Great North
ern at once without waiting until the end
of the month, when the resignation be
comes effective.
As Indicating the nature of the relations
between Mr. Hill and Mr. McGuigan that
caused the split, the latter's reply to the
question, "What were your duties as
vice-president of the Great Northern?" is
significant.
"I was supposed," said Mr. McGuigan,
"according to the announcement In the
circulars issued by ' the road, to have
charge of the operating department."
Hill Exceedingly Dominating.
"Well, did you actually have full con
trol of the operating department?"
Mr. McGuigan only smiled.
"Then it was Mr. Hill's attempt to
WHAT UNCLE

WITH
l.t.'-'A'.t..-t.'-'-'-'-'J-l.
dominate you that resulted in the
break?" . . i
" Mr. Hill is an exceedingly dominating
man," replied . Mr. McGuigan.
Pressed for further particulars of his
rupture with Mr. Hill. Mr. McGuigan was
silent. He said he would leave with his
family for Maine as soon as possible.
3. J. Hill refused to be Interviewed and
President Louis Hill declared he knew
nothing as to the cause of Mr. McGul
gan's resignation.
. Mr. McGuigan called on the Associated
$?ress this afternoon and asked if notic
had been taken of the story of personal
trouble" between himself and M-. Hill,
as printed in the dispatch.; On being as
sured that it had, he said
That story Is greatly overdrawn. I
would like to say that I told the young
man who called on me that I declined
to discuss my personal relations with
Edwin W. Sims, United States Dis
trict Attorney, of Chicago. Who
Conducted Prosecution of Standard
Oil Company foe Receiving Re
bates. Mr. Hill. Those relations have been very
harmonious. I simply found conditions
here to be such that I concluded it would
be best for my interests that I sever my
connections with the Great Northern
Railway. I shall leave at once, with my
family, for Portland, Me."
DEXIES THEY HAD FIST FIGHT
McGuigan Tones Down Accepted
Version of Quarrel.
ST. PAUL, Minn., Aug. 8. (Special.)
Frank H. McGuigan, first vice-president
of the Great Northern Railway Company,
has auddt-nly terminated his . connection
with the company. His action is said to
be the result of a friction which has ex
isted with one of the executive officials
almost since Mr. McGuigan came from
the Grand Trunk last April. -His rsslg
natlon Is supposed to take effect Sep
tember 1, but Mr. McGuigan will leave
for Portland, Maine, tomorrow evening
to take advantage of a well-earned rest,
Except to take it easy for a time, Mr.
McGuigan does not seem to have any
plans, bis departure from the Great
Northern being so sudden that it was Im
possible to make any.
"There is no truth in the report that I
have had any open clash with Mr. James
J. Htll," said Mr. McGuigan at his home
this afternoon. "My relations and con
versation wiu. Mr. Hill have been most
pleasant. I admit that there have been
differences of opinion about operating
matters, and my resignation, which I
handed in last Tuesday, is the result.
The idea of there being any personal en
counter between me and Mr. James J.

(Copyright, 1907, by the Cleveland Plain
Dealer.) CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 9. John D.
Rockefeller in discussing the recent
speech of Judge Grosscup, in which the
latter declared that the wealth of the
country was so widely distributed that It
was really in the hands of the moderately
well-to-do class, today said:
"They can hardly accuse Judge Gross
cup of partiality to corporations or rail
roads; he has shown very well Indeed how
widespread Is the damage resulting from
the persecution through prejudice of the
country's transportation lines. The same
applies to thoughtless attacks on other
HnAa rtf Inritifatrvi It in wnrR than
thoughtless te"ay off-hand that, the
wealth and the industries of the country
are in the hands of a few rich men, who
alone will suffer. There Is a direct loss
to thousands of fruga people, who have
Invested smalt savings in these enter
prises, and the indirect effect reaches still
other thousands who depend, in one way
or another, upon the success of every In
dustry. The business of the country is
Interwoven until it Is something like the
circulation of the blood in the body. An
Injury or an operation at one point shocks
and weakens the whole."
Same Interests as Others.
Referring to the financial situation, Mr,
Rockefeller Baid:
"Who Is more Interested in the ma
terial prosperity of this country than
I am? My eggs are not all In one
basket by any means. A good deal of
nonsense is printed every now and then
about my having captured all the rail
roads of the country or having
monopolized this or that. The truth is
that I figure as an Investor and stock
holder rather than as a proprietor. But
THE "INTERESTS. M

any depression is likely to mean a loss
of values to me. The groceryman may
not feci it if the coal business is bad,
or the wheatgrower suffer -If the railroads-lose,
but the man with wider In
terests feels every phase of depression.
I do not mean that I am in the grocery
or coal or wheat business, but I am
UBlng this illustration. It is a fact
that hardly any sort of business can
experience dull times without loss to
me. It should be plain, then, that I
have the best right to be anxious for
good times all around. Would I per
mit, then, any harm to come to any
line of business if I could help it?
"I am harnessed to a cart in which
the people ride," continued Mr. Rocke
feller. "Whether I like it or not, I
must work for the rest. I can not
evade this responsibility if I would.
But I do not complain of this. I am
willing to draw my share of the load
as long as I am able.
He Works for Thousands.
"The first step I took." he said,
"means obligating myself to working
men who henceforward looked to me
for employment, and investors who put
in their money and looked to me for
results. At every step forward the
load was heavier. The worklngmen
numbered a few score at first, and
then a few hundreds, then thousands.
There was a similar increase In the
number of investors who could hold me
to account. While I worked for my
self, I had to work for them, whether
or not. Today, retired from active
business, retired, that is, from business
for myself, the capital I have Invested
makes work for thousands and opens
opportunities for thousands of others
to place their savings profitably. No
man with money can escape this re
sponsibility or lossen this yoke from
his neck.
"We are servants, and not masters, we
who are or have been engaged In large
business affairs. : It is to our vital Interest
that the country prosper; that the people
prosper. They can destroy us or our busi
ness, or at least destroy our power of
serving them. We would probably suffer
the least. The richest man eats his three
meals a day and It does not take a for
tune to dress very well indeed, or to pro
vide real luxury In living. The men who
have acquired the largest fortunes have
not pursued wealth, but business success.
Had they desired money for the enjoy
ment of money, they would have stopped
far short of spending their lives as they
have, in the struggle that, is business. The
ambition of every man to make good pro
vision for his family can be satisfied far
short of the point reached by the big men
of the industrial world of today. But
they continue to toll at their desks be
cause they love achievement, for the keen
delight In creating where nothing was.
and sme time, I believe, people will bo
convinced that they are tolling for love
of country as well."
Not Bitter at Attacks.
When- It comes to the attacks upon him
and his associates, Mr. Rockefeller shows
himself the philosopher. He does not pre.
tend to like the assaults, nor does he pre
tend to haughty Indifference, and he is
not affected by flippant remarks on his
comments. But he Is not bitter toward
those who assail him. He says it is a
misunderstanding that will, right itself
In time. He frankly regrets, but he

6000 swept down upon General Drude's
camp, outside of Casa Blanca, yesterday
afternoon. They were driven off with
considerable loss. Later they renewed the
