Chicago, July IB.—Nctw that the rail roads are getting their traffic Ui shape md 'business is assuming its normal DondhVon some speculation as to the •oat u t the great strike to railroads and others in Chicago alone may be Inter-- tstlng. All the general managers say they have not sufficient data to hazard in opinion that could be relied upon. Urged to make a guess, one of them tonight said the losses of the roads would reach at least *5,000,000 and might go os high as 58,000.000. He declined to permit the use of h(s name, however, is the father of a random opinion. It will possibly bo many weeks before the managers can secure figures for a de tailed report. Many things must be taken into consideration. The toss oc casioned by suspended traffic will be the largest sum. but tho destruction of property will be by 40 means a small one. Nearly 600 Pan Handle cars were deatroyed in one blaze, and of these ninety-eight are known to have con tained merchandise. It will be necessary to leam from the shippers' Invoices Just nhat those ninety-eight cars contained before any computation of loss can. be made, and that will take much time. Within the city limits tower houses have been burned and tracks tom up. Damage has been done in many rail road shops and enormous sums expend ed in defending the roads against the rioters. General Manager St. John of the Rock Island road said yesterday the total loss la his company over the entire line would probably be not far from 51.000.- 000. Counsel for many of the railroads ore already at work drawing up finan cial claims for redress from the county of Cook and the city of Chicago, but figures are bard to get at. Concerted action on this line will be taken up by the general managers at an early date. As an outcome of the strike and Us disastrous efiect upon the Interests of dbrnmlsston merchants of South Water street, the South Water Street Com mercial Club has called a meeting to formulate a plan of action in regard to clolms against the railroad companies. A committee has oeen appointed to pre sent to the meeting a list uf nil actual dealers and receivers, shippers, brokers, cold storage and railroad men lnterescd In the claims. It is estimated on the street that Che claims aggregate 5500.000 and that the losses of commission men, directly and Indirectly, would not be a cent less than 51.600,000. The effect on the California fruit trade has been most disastrous. The first car of fruit to move Eastward in twelve days was started yesterday. In the four days preceding the 4th of July there were ninety oars of bananas en route to Chi cago. a large portion, of which never reached here. Another great cause of loss was that outside shippers got the Idea that there was going to be a famine here and they began to rush in perishable freight that never reached Chicago dealers and Is now scattered all over the country, a dead loss. One prominent dealer was asked to night what legal standing the claims ■to be made would have. "I was in New York," he said, “dur ing the troubles of 1887. We shipped a car load of melons, which was de stroyed at Pittsburg. The consignee never remitted a dollar for tho ehlp- Uni'ted States army fired their first of fensive Shots east of the Mississippi river for many years, killing Ch'aKes Fleischer and wounding S. W. Camp bell and Victor Dezur.-ner. Patrick O'Connor was shot and killed by an Illinois military private at the corner of Newberry avenue and Twelfth Street on July 11. During the conflict between the rioters and deputy mar shals at Kensington, on July 12. Peter Fisk, a deputy marshal, and Andrew Gregory, a bystander -were wounded. On July, 14 W. Suckran, a striking teamster, was shot by Rudolph Schcai, a driver, whom he xvaa trying to pdll from the seat of his wagon at the corner of Meagher and Jefferson streets. A collision last Thursday on the Wis consin tracks, thought to be chargea ble to a new engineer unacquainted with the road, caused the death of s. J. Bristol and W. A. Prose and the serious injury of Andrew Blake and Augustine Wright, all deputy mar shals. A green switchman on the same road was responsible for a wreck Fri day, In which Thomas Murphy, Frank Smith and James Foley were badly hurt. At least nine and possibly ten lives have been lost throughout the West outside of Chicago. Four of these, three soldiers and an engineer, was caused by the Intentional wreck ing of a train at Sacramento. Cal. Two rioters were killed by the troops. Two men were killed at Spring Valley, III., by the fire of soldiers, and it Is thought that 'there was a third victim burned secretly. A non-union switchman killed a union man at Minneapolis, Minn., yesterday. TO GIVE FINANCIAL AID. meat, but we siftd him and he paid our blH. Possibly 'that will be the case with claims. I am satisfied that over 51.000,000 had been lost, but l am not satisfied how the railroads arc <0 he compelled to pay for consignments which rotted on 'rhe track. In the time of the strikes they had in force two contracts, one with the Pullman Com pany and one with the merchants. It will be a question with them which contract they should keep. If decided In favor of Pullman, how is the atti tude toward the losses of merchants to be determined." While the list of casualties resulting in the loss of life and personal Injury dlreotly chargeable to the strike ant consequent riots is not so extenslve-ais a casual reader of newspapers would suppose, however, the number of vic tims is Urge enough to make a very serious thawing. In Chicago and vi cinity, including Hammond, eight and. Indirectly, ten lives were lost, the vic tims being killed outright or afterward dying of their injuries, while the num ber of wounded, as far as reported, was 41. The two railroad accidents which occurred are possibly chargea ble to the Incompetency of green men employed to take the place of strikers, by whioh two lives were lost and Mir persons Injured. The shedding of blood began July 2, when Deputy Marshal Logan was slightly stabbed while fighting a mob at Blue Island. July 5, when the riots at the stockyards be gan Edward O'Nellll and Antonio Hopp were wounded by polloemen. W F. Ansley and Frank Udes were Wounded July 6 by a marshal at Ken sington. and Peter Schwartz, a flag man at the Pan Handle and Wiscon sin Junction, was nearly beaten to death by rioters. Herbert 'Letters, a striking switchman, was shot and allied by Mrs. Wllifam Lehmann, whose husband, a Burlington fireman, had been assaulted by Letters at the corner of Eighteenth street end Oak ley avenue on July 5. The number of casualties resulting from the strike will ■aver be known, as many of the wounded -were at once uken to their homes and no report made of their in juries. As far as ascertained, the dead J***- John Burke, Charles Ober and Thomas Jackman. The Injured among the rioters numbered fifteen and among the militia- four. The same day during a riot at the 1 an Kindle crossing at Twenty-sec ond street Joseph Warzowskl waa Wued by a deputy marshal and Martha “*“• a spectator of the disturbance at Aanland avenue and Sixteenth street. J2* Wiled by a atray shot from a po- tmeman's revolver. At Hammond, July S. soldiers of the The decision of the American Fed eration of Labor to the elteot fba't no actual support would be given to the American Railway Union strike .was virtually annulled, so far as the local trades unions are concerned, by meet ings held 'this afternoon und evening at Bricklayers' Hall. In the afternoon the trades and labor assembly, which controls all labor organizations In Cook county, ffitlia'ted with .tho Fed eration, together with several outside organizations, such as the brick ma son s, and resolved to support the American Railway Union under ail cir cumstances. Resolutions to this effect were adopted and the unions In the assembly y/ere practically pledged to coming in at the rate of 55.000 a week, the officers say they am In belter con dition financially than ever to proceed with the strike. support the strike with financial assist ance and by all other means in (their power. It was the sense of the meet ing that to strike at present at present will do no good to the union, and for this reason ho positive action in this respect was taken. No orders were Is sued to the unions either to strike or to return to work, and lt'is left to tho separate local organizations to take such action. The proposition submitted by Debs to th egenerail managers tons undoubtedly weakened the cause of trades unions so far as striking Is con cerned at present, and it is believed that -the majority of men now outwni return to work as soon as possible. The Idea of calling a general strike has been universally condemned, both on account of. tho proposition and on ac count of the stand taken that a local strike would do no good. During the meeting the action of President Gom- pors in striving to defeat the object of the strike was bitterly condemned and the president of the federation was bitterly condemned upon all sides. Resolutions' were offered by by for mer warm supporters of Gompers, as sailing the motives of the president of tho federation In pursuing tho policy displayed to down the American Rail way Union and he .was arraigned by a number of strikers. Resolutions were adopted as a whole, but the Bcntlment of the meeting was vocally expressed. The name of President Cleveland was Jeered and hissed at both he meetings of the assembly and at a meeting held tonight. Every time a speaker men tioned the president’s name he was hissed, and 'the president of a single tax club of Cook county was virtually hissed off the platform because of an anfblguous reference to Cleveland. Which was taken as an Indorsement. The Indorsement by the trades and la bor assembly is considered a most val uable aid to the American Hallway Union, as the body oontrols over 103.000 men. Include d In which are the affili ated orders of the building and trades council, which, through President J. J. Ryan, renounced all connection with the Pullman -boyootters and strikers. DEBS STILL HOLDS OUT. Chicago, July 15.-Thls was tho most quiet day in the history of die railroad strike, admitting tile claim of President Debs and his colleagues that the strike Is tn force and effect as much as ever. The leaders of the American Railway Union devoted the day mainly to en couraging their followers to stand firm and appealing to those In the ranks of the strikers to Jeln In the movement. The railroad men employed attended the meeting In larger numbers and there was no wavering or lack of enthusiasm, and especially when Messrs. Debs and Howard were the orators. The confi dence of the men who are out In the ability of the American Railway Union executive officers to win the strike and their faithfulness to the cause of the rank and file docs not appear to have waned In the teaea. A brief and unimportant meeting of the executive board waa held at the Ulich's hall headquarters in the morn ing In accordance with the plan to have a meeting bf the board every morning to hear reportB from the committees representing their respective roads as to the condition of the strike organiza tion. This was an off day at headquar ters snd only a few bf the committees reported. They claimed accessions to the ranks of the strikers and many new members enrolled who were at work, but who could bo relied on to go out when ordered. In the afternoon the strikers of the stock yards district ga thered over 1.000 strong at Forty-seventh and Halstead streets to hear Debs. The biggest muss meeting of the day was held st Brick layers' hall on the west side. Debs was the chief attraction. The telegrams re ceived by the rillwav union officers from their organizers and strike leaders in the Western states indicated that there was more of a railroad strike on the trans-continental lines out of Chi cago than here, and the strength of the union Is expected to be concentrated at those points. District Attorney Milchrlst today said that the contempt proceedings against Debs and other officers of the American Railway Union would probably not be gin in the United States court until Judge Grosscup returns to the city the letter part of the week. Judge Seaman of Milwaukee will rake his place here Tuesday, when twenty Indlotmen'a egalnet destroyers of railroad property und those who stopped trains will be presented. The American Railway Union Is in s nourishing condition finan cially. A permanent ofllcer today mule an estimate for the running expenses of the office force at 5400 a week. The largest telegraph bill for one day was 1500. and the association btt been ac cumulating money for over a year. For the month of June the receipts at head quarters for dues alone were over 510.- M0. One day's yecilpts for dues this month tooted up nearly 51.000. As the local Ibdges pay their incidental ex penses and the general sseeasmynt M NUMBER OF DEPUTY MARSHALS. Chicago, July 15.—Chief Deputy United States Marshal Donnelly and n three of twenty-flye deputies were In r.verve at the government building during the day. but no calls for their services were received. Late last night Chairman Esan of the General Managers’ Association mule a requisition for ten men for service at tile yards of the Chicago and Western Indiana roada at Forty-ninth street at 7 a. tn. and for six men at the stock yards at the same hour. The force re ported fit the Polk. Street depot at 6 a. m. nnd left half an hour later Ibr the points designated. Reports were re ceived from the men that they had been required to protect dead freight In Ks movement eastward nnd the' work bad been aceompUahcd without trouble. A big crowd asset moled at each of the yards, but n'o attempt was made to at tack the marshals or to interfere with the dispatch of the trains. Clerks in the office of United States Marshal Arnold were busily engaged today in tabulating the total of depu ties to whom tho oath had been admin istered since the Inauguration of the trouble. Marshal Arnold was surprised when the last of the stubs with the seal attached was found to be num bered 3.402. "That is a small army within itself," he said, "and Mg enough for any ordi nary trouble." Of this lot 2,000 were railroad men, watchmen and others, sw'orn In as special deputies at the re quest of various railroad companies and on .whose necount no per diem will be charged to the government. This leaves In the neighborhood bf 1.400 men to be paid at the rate of 52.50 per day nnd expenses, and for terms of service rang ing from six to seventeen days. The total cost of service rendered from the marshals of Chicago has not yet been calculated. An examination of the com- mlsEfon stubs developed the fact that quite a number of deputies were sworn In at the request of agents of steam ship docks, sky-scraping buildings and wholesale and retail buildings. TAMPERED WITH SWITCHES. Chicago, July 15. -Striker* caused trouble last night In the Kelt line yards at Eighty first and Wal'aoe streets. They threw switches leading from tho Western Indiana main tracks into llie yards and two freight trains went from the main track luto the sidings before the engineers dlscovtvcd their error. No damage was done, but the track was blockaded for some time after wards. Switches at Mini points in the yards were thrown, and for several hours the roud was tied up. ENGINEER AND FIREMAN SHOT. Fargo, N. D., July 15.—The Northern Pacific strike situation is more com plicated tonight than for the past week. The members of the Switchmen's Mu tual Aid Society, who had relumed to work, all struck n’t 7 o'clock. The report of the Shooting of Marlin, n non-union man, and his fireman out In rhe bad lands In Monta'aa was con firmed by private telegrams tonight. A cowboy rode up to tho train und shot both. Dotails are lacking, but lot ti are said to have died. Martin brought the first train on tho Northern Pacific to this point null was .consid ered a loiter for tho company 11 gainst the American Railway Union.

Berlin, July 16.—Emperor ’William will sail from Bergen, Norway, on July 23, and will arrive on August 1 In Wllhelenshuveh, where he will be met by Chancellor von Caprlvl. After a two days' rest in Potsdam he will start for tho Is» of Wight. During tbe emperor'e 'three days on ’German sail all the important questions of do mestic politics awaltng settlement will bp submitted lo him. * A peculiar feature of the present trip boa been 'the suspension of most of the government 'business in Berlin. Here tofore he has received and answered dally numerous notes and state papers sent out by telegraph from the minis terial office. This year the ministers Have rent the usual communication", but they Wave got only meagre replies, often bone at all. It Is, therefore, quite uncertain what 'the emperor thinks of Dr. Mlquel'a proposals for the suppres sion ot Socialism and Anarchism, or the revised plans tor tho taxation ot alcohol -and tobacco. Whether We will support the chancellor in h'ls opposi tion 'to special repressive laws and will go over to the reactionists of tho Blsmarokiam school Is hi complete doubt. In official circles there Is a well authenticated report that Che emperor, when bidding the chancellor good-by in Kid. requested him to study caret fully tbe question of repressive legisla tion against the revolutionists and for mulate a proposition ot subjection. So far nothing Indicates 'that the cJfancel- lor Was Joined the reaction. Tho news papers which he is supposed to inspire still oppose pkins of reviving special laws against Socialism or Anarchism. The exchanges of Berlin, Vienna, Paris and Rome has resulted in a com mon agreement <0 enforce the system bf survellance recommended by C.t- prlvl. The corner stone of tills system Is the harmonious co-operation of the police forces in all four mpltuls. Tho most effective part uf the agreement, as far us Geramnv Is concerned, pro vides that any foreign Anarchist who seeks refuge In Germany and whose presence is known to the authorities •rball be blacefl at once at the disposal of WIs government. In case uf expul sions. the police of every country in the agreement shall be warned ut once so the exile may be shadowed wherever he goes. It is understood tti.it Brussels and the city governments will c'o-oper- ato with the four others in this agree' ment. Count Hazfclt. Gorman ambassador In London, will crime here tomorrow to confer with Oaprivl as to England's at' tttude toward the agreement. He has the nssurance of Lord Rosebery that England will help tho continental pow ers in the light ugalnst the Annrchlsts, although not tn a position to enforce the provisions as to expulsions. The Nonldeutsch Algemeln Zeltung holds that the international police meas ure will meet the present emergency. No International code nor extraordinary domestic legislation, if says, will now be necessary. The Hamburger Nuchrlcben de nounces Great Britain's pretentions of world-wide .hospitality. "This is a mere Pharisaism." H says. "England shelters the worst ruffians, who are ready to prey upon all her neighbors and never nuke objection as long as she herself sustains no Injury." Tho RMchsbote and the Post distin guish thcmsolvoa-from other Conserva tive Journals by opposing the demandn for international league and Draeonie laws again-* the revolutionists, in the Liberal and Radical press Chancellor von Oaprtvl Is commended for his hos tility to exceptional legislation. Tho emprens received last week a let ter from Lebedit von Kotzo'a wife, who appealed for an audience that she might plead In her husband’s defense. The empress made no reply. Tho emperor The minister of Russian customs has given notice from August 1 that, all Uerman vessels entering Russian ports must deposit a sum equal to the value of 'the cargo. The German -gov ernment Was demanded that the new order be withdrawn as a violation ot the now commercial treaty. The bourse discovered on Wednes day that a large quantity of forged Italian government securities had bean unloaded in Berlin recently. All the securities are 5 per cent, and most of them are 1,000 lire bonds. A few deal ers were defrauded, but most of 'the heavy losses will fall upon Private In spector Sudatrick, who was detailed as special Inspector ait the bourse. The bourse police has searehod for the au thor of the forged securities. The Jew baiter, AWiwardt. has pub lished a pamphlet composed at his leisure in tho Plorttenee pri«on. The contents are so rabidly antl-6emltlo as to suggest the Insanity of the au thor. He contends that the Bible la full of Jewish falsehoods, bom of the enormous conceit of tho Hebrew race. Almost every reoord In tho Scriptures is forged, not excepting than of Christ. Judas Iscariot, he holds, was the typi cal Jew of ,tho Bible. Tho harvest In south Gormany and Austro-IIungary are good, reaping ad vanced and threshing Is in progress. The quality of wheat Is excellent. The oat and Hlalxe crops are Still in doubt. The wheat crop in Hungary la esti mated at 37.000,000 maters centner. The Hamburg government has sup pressed a society of Free Thinkers, whose members are chiefly young Anarchists. A Munich SootalWt club, called 'the free debaiters, was dissolved last week mainly because It sympa thized openly with the Berlin Anarclt- IstS, who masquerade as independent Socialists. On Friday many of these in dependents gathered in front of the Plortzcnae prison to welcome the An archist Hermann, who was expected to finish her term on that day. They waited In vain, as Hermann had been liberated on Thursday evening and had ubeyed the police orders to leave Berlin at once. Berlin police arrested several of the crowd against whom charges were made. Jean Gregolre, a French Anarchist, -wa s taken from his refuge In Saarhruecken on Friday and was delivered to the Frenohtipolloe on the frontier. The Czech An-archlst Florin was sentenced In Wiesbaden yesterday ‘to a month's imprisonment. His offense was tirait he threatened ko blow up .the police iwho were watching him. The burnt for Anarchist suspects is oarrled on energetically, but quietly throughout the empire. WORK THIS. WEEK IN CONGRESS \ The.

Tho story tlmt Kotze has offered a large reward tor the anonymous letter writer is absurd. The culprit is known at court. Possi bly the emperor awaits tho right time to punish him without attracting atten tion. l'rivy 'Councillor Breugmann, who conducted th* examination, received two days ago on anonymous letter which offered proof -that a certain prince at the Ber H n court wrote the offensive letters. The prince’s friends say that the writer Hes, as the prmee was traveling In Asia when the first letters were sent. The court in Lelpslo has reversed, by a new decision, the principle of Judicial autonomy of the states In handling press offenses. Newspapers nrn held to be liable to proaecutlon, not only In the place of publication, but wher ever they circulate within the empire. The prosecutor, moreover, may choose the place of trial to suit himself. This decision has aroused the states rights people and the editors of all newspa pers to a storm of protests, which will be repeated as soon os the relchstag meets. In consequence of a tariff war with 8pain all Spanish goods Imported Into Germany are dutiable, with the 60 per cent., additional of the regular tariff. This closed Germany ahrolutely to a large part if thi Caban tobacco trade. Import rtion of fnuiy Spanish products has been ow entirely. Tho war was thrust up-ilf Germany.

Chicago, July 15.—Archbishop Ire land ot St. Fuel, asked what lie hail 10 say upon the railroad strike, spoke as follows: "I dislike to speak ot tho Chicago strike, because lu so doing I ulirdl bitroio labor, while, because of my deep syuiiiiulilliy wfdU It, 1 should wish to liu vo bat words of praise I0r it.

One of these, which Is considered of much im portance, Is tint to establish a system of salaries for marshals, clerks and at torneys of United States courts, and abolishing Hie praotloo of paying foot. Tho bill la, lu some sense, un outcome of the Investigation Into the reported abuses liy ofiloiuls'of tho United Suites court In MnsriteliuHoltH nml ALoiIhuiui. Wednesday will be given to the cum- mttce on military ullufra to dear too moro lmponu'ut ttUe, tho passage of whltih It has recommended. ' This Is as far uu the mmrmilltoo on rules lias disposed of the week, but tho proba bilities ure before tho wook closes tlr.t't toe bill to uunnnd toe Imorotmto com merce act t» as to permit 'toe railroads .to arrange freight mid panscngcr pools will lie called up. Cuusldorable oppo- sltlou to toe bill 1ms boon expressed mud several nppllaaittnns matlo to tho committee on rules not to let it have a day until next session. Rut the expe diency mul Justice of too proposition nre mrigu.zml by too managers nnd they toy It shall lutvo consideration. Unless the friends of too tniumiro will consent to strike out the provision per mitting appeals to be taken from ilia ruling of tiio Interstate) aoamncrco com mission, It Is doubtful Unit tho bill will pass. Tho sennto has rondo sudh rapid prog- rt«d with too appropriation bills, It Is quite possiblo the clone ot the week will see nil the depart,meats of too gov ernment provided for tho present fiscal year. When tho resolutions hmvo been accomplished tho minority will occupy, a lsisliton of ulngulur idnnAn In ro- g.nd to the conference Republicans on Iho tariff.

If after Iho appropriation bills nro diaposod of tho Kcpnblluanx in tiotii toe senate oral too house should com bine to break a quorum, St Is doubtful whether the Democrats would bo uhlo without extra wdl nary effort to hold their forces together and to ooinmund sufficient votes to adopt too couforenco report. Some of tho more aggreadvo Republican opponents of the tariff bill are already hinting ut rite poHsIbilliy of such a contingency nrislng. But tho better opinion seems to be that some kind of IU1 adjustment will be arrived at tliough not till souv ufier riio lot of August. The time now fixed tor too bill to take effect lms passed.

There are other important tneusurcB pending IhCwoci tho two bouses which the senate js n»t In any hurry to toko up. The awl-option bill was talked to dm!!i in the senate in the last erm- gresi and -would meet with equally strong opposition If culled up tor sen ate action at this session. Almost ns much opposition would mutrit the bill to forfeit, unearned rullnxul land grants, which too bouse paused last: week. THAT NEW MORNING DAILY.
