Chicago, 111., July 2 THE crucial point iu the railroad strike will t reached within twenty-four hours from mid night. This is the opinion oou fiJeutly expressed at the headquarter s of the railioad managers at n lute boor tonight. It ie likewise the first expres sion emanating froia the managers' end since the commencement of hos tilities with which the representatives of the strikers ere io complete accord. Both elements are sanguine that tb beginning of the end will be in sight Wore sundown Tuesday. As to the tueans by which this de sirable coosuiDUiutioa is to he attained however, there is a radical dtffrenee of cpinioii. The general managers pro-f.-ss to believe that the extraordinary injanotion issnsd today by Judges Woods sod Crosscup will prove to be worthy of the tree yet epigrammatic dtitiif ui.tion given it by t tie merubars nf the Ptdoral judiciary first named, "A Gatling kuu uu papir" The strike is tying np lake trafflo five! ually.

"The pres ident of the Sen man's union came here todiiy and reported that his organiza tion was perteily willing to obey an order for a walk out. The committee of the Statidiird Oil employes in this city ulso cnuiB to us. They stmd ready to quit work. The trade and lalior assrinhly of Chicago bus Kivn os aur ranee that it will ordr a general strike at our request. This would par .tilyze the industries of the town, but ' we have no intention of doing sush n thing. Jnt us long ns we can wh shall confine tis fitfbt to the railroads. This forenoon I issued nn order tying up the remainder of the D'nvor mid Rio Grande system. Wo feel encouraged at the outlook to lay and shall fight on with renewed hope and confidence in oar ultimate victory." When Mr Dobs' uttention wus called to the minors that have been in circu lation for the p.ist two days, to the ef fect that ni'guiiations looking to m set tlement of the strlko were being con dncted between himself and M. Studo baker for the Pullman company, he declined to answer direct questions, tut contented to outline the terms npon which the officers of the union would settle the strike: "First, we will settle with the Pullman company upon any terms that the employes of the company may desire. We will settle with the railroads on the oondition that they restore their striking em ployes to their former places. We want the settlement to take place with ail the corporations at ouce. This is a general fight between employes and corporations. The middle people and the working people are wltb ns." Aroording to the law, hb expounded by United States District Attorney Mil Christ tonight the publication "of the decree in a widely circulated paper, Its posting in a poblio placs where it is certain to be read and its contents dis seminated, or the formal reading to a dtnioDstratlve crowd by a deputy mar shal, may be ruled upon as constitut ing sufficient servlee to place Uose guilty of a breach of its provisions under the ban of the law. Under this Interpretation thousands of strikers might be srrested day after day and . be arraigned and summarily dealt with for contempt of court, and tbls is pre cisely the policy, according to the re ports at the government building to night that it is intended to pursue. If it is carried out there wUl be no need, o It is believed, for the employment of lther state militia or federal troops. ToPEXi, Kan., July 2 General ORDER Manager Frey reported wore p isseng-r trains in service between Chicago und Denver than at any time since the strike began. Ho also reports freights rnnuing out of several important points. The strike sentiment Is rapidly increasing here, and mail belonging to the old organizations are joining the new.

Messages from pussenger agents of all the local Hues who are now looking np this business, indicate that the people are pretty well scared and many wiil stay at home rather than run the risk of being laid out along the road. Cincinnati, O., July 2 There has boen a slight change io the strike sttn tion here. Seveuty-elght non-union men employed in the Pullmau shops at Ludlow, Ky., quit work this morning, giving as their reason that they were afraid of being assaulted by the strik ers. The engineers sind firemen are still at their posts, but a n timber of thetu individually are willing to join the strikers. When Strike Manager Phelrn was asked this morning if the eugineers were ready to go out as a when called upon, he answered: "Un fortunately they are not, but I am hopeful for a change very soon. Many of the tbe engiueers are with us." By order of the war department the Seventh reglinent.United States troops, left their barracks at Fort Logau early this morning, proceeding to Triuidad where they will protect the property of the Gulf and Santa Fe railroads against violence ou 1 lie part of the strikers.

By tbe latter strike a number of the mills are shut off from railway communication, and already half u dozsn tt jur mills have had to shut. dowu. The Milwaukee continued to run pissonger trains. All freight business on the road af fected by the strike is paralyzed. NEW YORK UNDISTURBED. New York, July 2 The railroad strike has not as yet alTectcd the Nxw York Central's traffic. All the weateru trains are arriving at the Grand Cen tral station practically on time. On the Luke Shore Mere has been as yet no trouble at all. The Central officials look for no serious trouble as far as they are concerned '1 hey nre of the opinion that tbe American Railway union will never be able to obtain a sufficient foot ing on either the Like Shore or the Michigan Central to cause any suspen sion of business. But even in the event of a general strike, on the two lines, the Central would still have the Nickel i'lrt- road to fall back on. The idea of the strike becoming general in the east is not considered at all by tbe Central officials. San Francisco. July 2 Up to 9 o'clock this morning no reports of trouble with strikers rn the Southern I'arllio system had been received. Trafliois still virtually at a standstill, Thositnatioi at S icritnento is ex tremely critical. The United Stales marshal is there with u small force, while the strikers number close to 3,000. They are congregated about the depot and are determined to resist the moving of trains. The railrond people are rqnally determined to reanuij traf fic nnJ if they do tuorj will certainly lie a disastrous .collision between the contending forces. MEAT FAMINE IN NEW YORK New York, July 2. "This city Is threatened with the worst fresh nmat famine it has experienced In twenty years on account of the rail road strike," said a big dealer today. "There has been no time within that period when Chicago was shut out en tirely for so long a timo us it has been since the strike begun." Nothing in the way of live or drossod meat has started from Chicago to this city sines last Friday. Customers be gan to feel the advance today as there tail butchers tRcked from 2 to 5 cents a pound on nearly all fresh meats. The city has been drawing considerable quantity of Us supply of fresh meat trom Baltimore and Pittsburg, but af ter today the city will begin to draw on New Jersey aud eustern Pennsylvania for beef, but this supply will not last long. California fruits have suffered most through the railroad strike. Dealers in smoked meats havo taken advantage of the scarcity of fresh meat to advance the price of hams and baoon. A lengthened stride would interfere with the utter supply. Fort Wayne.

THE SILVER REN ARE STILL LOYAL They Look to the Republican Party to Restore Their White Metal The General Tendency of Populistic Demagogues Toward Anarchy Has Ruined Their Cause with Decent People Encouraging Talk from Senator Du Bois. Washington. July 2. SENATOR Dubois (Idaho), who hss just returned from th meeting of the League of Iiepublicau Clubs nt Denver, brings enconr uiug reports for the Republieans as to tbs deeliue of the Populist party iu tbe west. He said today that while Ihe silver resolution adopted at tbe uiotting was not all tho silver men wanted, it wus sufficient to bold tho western states in the Republican lines. While tbe league has no right to make party platforms every state in the Union was represent ed at the meeting, and it was regarded as the herd 11 in advance of tbe next national convention, aud as the only source of authoritative or suuri-authoritative expression for the party before the ls30 national convoutiou, SILVER RESOLUTION ADOPTED. The westeru Ropublicuns accepted the silver resolution, he said, almost ss in the nature of a promise tbat the next Republican national platform would declare In favor of tbe full res toration of silver. With this under standing of tho situation and expicta tion for the future, the western states would staud by the old party. Ail in dications arc, be said, that the Popu list party has gained no strength, bat rather ou tbe contrary it may have lost through a genera! disgust at their bad government in those sections where they have bad control, aud by their general tendency towards anarchy. Tbe genuine sllvsrmun regard the Populist course as injurious to the sil ver cause, and their dissatisfaction on account of the treatment of silver dur ing this congress has not drivsn them to join the Populists. Notwithstand ing the widespread discontent which has been looked npon as likely to in crease the strength of the Popnlist movement, reports from tbe Populist "strongholds" showed a weakening- iu their lines iu all quarters, and an almost universal disgust with them, STORM COUNCIL MEETING. Borough Solons Adjourn Amid Turbu letciand Police Espionage. tueaal to the fkranton TW&une. Pittston. Pa., July 2 A stormy session of conucil was held tonight and atone time tbe session became so turb ulent tbat it was deemed expedient by some to call in tbe presence of a police uihu, thiukiug that would have a pa cific effjet.
