Chicago, July 12. The strike situa
tion throughout the country was in gen
eral one of quietness. The central
point of interest has been the meeting
of the labor leaders with .President
GomperB, of the Federation of Labor,
at their headquarters in this city. It is
admitted that the action of that body,
if taken unanimously, will have a
marked effect on the situation, and
persons well informed as to the pre
dictions of persons composing it ex
press an opinion that unanimous ac
tion by it, except in the reaction of
quieting the present agitation by turn
ing it into other channels, is unlikely.
It is known that several suggestions
are being -considered by these leaders.
Among them are the following :
First That the striking Pullman em
ployes on high patriotic grounds ap
peal to President Deba to declare the
strike off by reason of the infinite dam
age which is being done to the business
of the country.
Second That the leaders unite in an
appeal to the public to quit patronizing
Pullman sleepers, drawing rooms and
dining cars.
Third That President Cleveland be
requested to appoint a committee to in
vestigate the strike and the causes
which led up to it in the expectation
that the report of such a commission
would jusify the action taken by the
strikers and free them from the charges
of rioting and disorder.
Fourth That immediate efforts be
made to secure the impeachment of
Attorney General Olney.
Fifth That an effort be made to se
cure the passage of a compulsory arbi
tration law by congress.
Sixth That complaints be lodged
looking to the indictment of railway
managers for a consmracy to obstruct
the movement of the United States
mails by refusing to run mail cars
except in connection with Pullmans.

Seven Hundred Men in a Body Walk
Out Obedient to Sovereign's
Command,
By the Associated Press.
Chicago, July 12. Promptly at 12
o'clock 700 men employed by Fraaer and
Chalmers laid down their tools and
went on a strike. Before doing so they
had notified President W. J. Chalmers
of their intention and held a long con
ference, wherein the men stated their
position. They Baid they had no com
plaint against the company, nor any
grievance of any kind, but had been
ordered to strike out of sympathy, and
would do so to show their sentiment..
Mr. Chalmers made a speech in which
he said he hoped that the strike would
cause no hard feeling between the com
pany and its employes and with a hand
shake and well wishes all around the
men left and when a few minutes be
fore the big shop had been bustle and
confusion all was silent.
Over 100 men employed by the Gates
Iron company walked out at the same
hour and a number of other shops were
affected.

HE DIES TODAY.
Only One Chance in a Million
for Prendergast.
The Scaffold for His Execution was
. Erected Last Night. His
Mother's Last Visit.
By the Associated Press.
Chicago, July 12. There is only
one chance in a million that
Prendergast, the asBassin, will not
hang tomorrow. Governor Altgeld has
refused to interfere. The application
for a writ of habeas corpus in the TJ. S.
Circuit court was argued before Judge
Grosscup. The assaaBin's attorney de
manded a stay, to give time for an ap
peal to the supreme court, as the writ
was refused. Judge Grosscup tele
graphed Judge Woods at Indianapolis,
to come and confer with him, and di
rected the clerk to write Sheriff Gilbert
asking him to delay the execution to
morrow as long as possible.
The assassin spent the day very
quietly. Bev. Father Barry came to
see him. Prendergast when told that
the priest was in the jail, said: "Well,
let him come if he wishes to, but I
want it understood 1 did not send for
him. If he wants to see me I will re
ceive him." The priest talked to
Prendergast for an hour. The assassin
seemed in good spirits and frequently
smiled.
This afternoon Mrs. Prendergast, his
mother, came ; there were tears in the
eyes of the sorrowing woman as she ap
peared at the jail door. She brought
him a new suit of underwear and a
clean white shirt. "I will see him af
ter awhile for the last time," said Mrs
Prendergast with a shudder, and she
sank into a chair. Later she entered
the chamber of death to take a final
leave of her 6on.
The scaffold was carried into the jail
and put in place thia evening.

By the Associated Pr ass.
San Francisco, July 12. Since yes
terday's outrage at the treBtle west of
Sacramento, the strike situation in
California has been less alarming. In
Oakland there has been rioting of a
more or less serious nature since early
this morning. The trouble began at
daybreak when a mob of several hund
red strikers rushed into the yards on
the Mole. They killed all the locomo
tives that had been fired up and de
railed a locomotive and a long line of
coaches. They also wrecked a turn
table by shoving a heavy freight car
into the pit. Damage was alao done at
the round house.
Trouble came to an end this evening,
however, when the steamer Alameda
landed a force of 350 United States
marines from Mare Island under the
command of Lieutenant Commander
W. H. Eeeder of the cruiser Charleston.
Their equipment includes five Gatling
guns and several Hotchkiss cannon.
The marines are to act under the direc
tion of General Ruger and will be sup
ported by a company of artillery from
the Presidio.
The railroad company hopes to re
sume traffic in and out of Oakland to
morrow. At Sacramento the conditions
of martial law prevail'. No trains . are
running. Wrecking crews are still at
work on the trestle. The bodieB of
Engineer Clark and the three soldiers
are not yet recovered. Numerous ar
rests have been made by the Boldiers
today of suspicious characters, who
were thro A-n in the guard house. Re
wards as follows have been offered for
the apprehension of the men responsi
ble for yesterday's disaster at the
trestle : the Southern Pacific company,
$5,000; Attorney General Olney, $2,000;
Governor Markham, $500.
The sheriff's men are confident they
have enough evidence to convict Striker
Worden, who is in custody. A boy has
been found who declares he drove Wor
den and seven others to the bridge
where the train was wrecked. They
carried wrencheB, a crane, bar and were
heavily armed. He positively identi
ties Worden.
Trains are running regularly out of
San Francisco on coast divisions.

What Hangs on the Admission
of Utah.
A Great Trans-Continental Road
From Salt Lake South and
West to the Coast.
By the Associated Press.
New York, July 12. A dispatch to a
morning paper says: The day the
president's signature is affixed to the
Utah admission bill will see the launch-.
ing of the greatest railroad enterprise
for years. A trans-continental scheme
has been matured and is only held back
until Utah can be dealt with as a Btate.
Behind the plan of development is
the wealth and influence of the Mor
mon church. Surveys have been made,
estimates compiled and the work is in
such an advanced stage that the blue
prints of engineers are now here and
ready to be used for construction pur
poses. The road surveyed and to be built ex
tends from Salt Lake City southerly
and the westerly to a Pacific connection
in Los Angeles county. If a connection
cannot be made with the Santa Fe in
southern California, then this Utah
road will be built through to the coast.
In southern Utah are anthracite coal
beds which exceed those in Pennsyl
vania by one half but have nntil now
entirely escaped the gentile railroad
builder. These coal fields will be
pierced by the new road.
