TRUK WRECKERS.
(DISORDER IN AMERICA', SETTLEMENT DELAYED. UNIONS REJECT TERMS. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received Aug. 21, 7.50 p.m. New York, Aug. 20. A wreck on the Michigan central railroad, which officials declare was due to the. withdrawal of spikes, permitting the rails to spread, resulted in the death of two men, serious injury to two others, and the demolition of a baggage train. A reward of £lOOO is offered for the capture of the wreckers. The unions’ demand for the re-employ-ment of the strikers, and refusal to submit the seniority question to the Railway Labor Board, threaten to block a settlement of the railway strike. Increasing .disorders in the Middle West and South also menace the peace movement. One important railway, the Newhaven and Hartford, has signed an agreement with its employees decreasing the wage reductions which the Railway Labor Board ordered.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
