the Santa Fe folks to continue their passenger trains ont ot this city but the outlook is gloomy THEY SAY THRY ARK TIKEU Kansas City Mo Match 15 The erg neers and firemen on the vast system of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad Company went out on a strike at 4 oxlock this afternoon The strike created immense excitement and surprite in this city for the reason that the road has not been handling Burlington freign That the strike was ordered by some oz In authority there is no doubt but in this city the men profess utter ignorance ot the issuing of any such order and say tbey have quit because they ara tircd The first indication ot trouble here was at 480 oclock this afternoon tat which hour the Osage City express scheduled to depart Conductor Mnray gave theorder to start when

engine at tne Union depot the men employed in the Santa Fe freight yards at Argentine quit work all declaring themselves tired Nothing positive can be said as to the origin or canse of the strike The

morning It is stated that the engineers were last nleht given to understand they were not compi lied to handle Chicago Burlington and Qaincy freight if they did not desire to do so and as a consequence all the cars of that line are apparently being side tracked in the Union Pacific yards The yards are crowded with Chicago Burlington and Qaincy cars The company has evidently determined to settle the matter with the Chicago Burlington and Qaincy authorities in court rather than suffer their freight business ta come to a stand still WILL HARDLY BEACH TEXAS Special to the tiuette i
