IT LOOKS
SERIOUS,
A General Strike las Been
Deciarefl by the
KNIGHTS OF LABOR.
The Great Struggle Between
Labor and Capital is
NOW ON IN EARNEST.
Debs is Arrested on Indictments
Found by the United States Grand
Jury, Charged With Ob
stractlng the United States
Mails and Inter State
Commerce.
Chicago. 11l July 11th. 5 o’clock
p m.—(Special.)—All Labor
unions have joined the strikers.
Large mobs of strikers and their
sympathizers are now patrolling
the streets.
No rioting has occured up to
this hour, and everything pass
ing off quietly.
Chicago, July 11.—There is no
disguising the fact that the local
situation today is more
grave than it has been at any
time since two weeks ago, this
noon, when the American Railway
Union issued its boycott against
the roiling stock of the Pullman
Car Company with »he view of en
forcing the demand of the strikers
at the town of Pullman.
This is not the view of the
alarmist or the biased idea of the
radicals among the striking fo
ment. It is the opinion entertain
ed today among all classes of the
community, which are looking for
ward with fear and apprehension
to what the day or another day
may bring forth. There was that
same feeling of unrest and forbod
ing in tho air that those who have
witnessed uprisings on the part of
tho masses in England and on the
continent remember full well.
There are three times as many
people on the streets today as were
to be, seen on any day for many
months past. Ninetenths of them,
men and women alike, displayed
some emblem. The majority wore
the white ribbon, emblematic of
sympathy with the strikers, and
against the use of which the white
ribbonersof the Woman’s Chris
tian Temperance Union have made
a fervent but apparently ineffect
ual protest. Silken miniatures of
the stais and stripes, too, made
their appearance this morning and
before noon they were to be seen
by the thousands serving the pur
pose of bouutenaires or being pin
ned to breasts.
TWO OPIN’ON OF Dlßs’s ARREST
The arrest < f President Debs and
his associates was the censation of
the day. The president of the railway
union and his colleagues were
brought in quietly and without any
outburst of popular indignation that
sen sat ion lists had predicted The
federal[grand jury, composed almost
entirelj of out-of-town residents, oc
cupied less time than had been ex
pected in reaching the decision that
the evidence piesented for its con
sideration was sufficient to justify
the return of true bills against the
leaders of the union. ‘No other re
sult had been expected by those who
listened to the cbArgeof Judge Gross
cup, and while although denounced
with fury at the headquarters of the
vaiious organizations tonight, is gen

KNIGHTS ORDERED OUT.
Organized labor was prompt to
strike back at. the latest manifes

intervening grouni between the

law, when the commitree appoint

its employees to arbitration, and
which had been endowed with au
thority in the event of a refusal
being returned, attached its signa
