Reports from Burlington and surrounding cities describe a broad rail strike involving Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Knights of Labor, with trains halted or delayed. Officials and troops discuss possible arbitration, while engineers and firemen hold the line amid paramilitary readiness and scattered violence in St Louis and nearby towns.
