Mr. Hopkins: "Yes, sir. Several times Mr. Eagan telephoned that trouble was occurring at some point. When officers would investigate they would find no trouble at all. There are 2,100 miles of railway in the city limits; there are 1,360 trains daily, 160 railroad crossings, and 3,000 surface railroad crossings. The police force for this year is scheduled at 1,928 patrolmen. There are 186 square miles of territory in the city and you can readily see that every point could not be covered at once. The amount of violence was not very great. In Pullman not one pane of glass was broken in the three months of the strike. I live in Pullman myself." Mr. Worthington: "You may state whether at any time you advised the American Railway Union or its members to strike?" Mr. Hopkins: "No, sir." Mr. Worthington: "Did the General Manager's Association either during or since the strike request the city to arrest any individual strikers or suggest such arrest?" Mr. Hopkins: "No, sir; I think that President Newell swore out a warrant for a man named Hall, but the information was furnished by the city." Mr. Worthington: "Has the American Railway Union brought in any information of this character?" Mr. Hopkins: "Yes, sir; in the case of Hall, who was charged with turning over cars; also in other cases, which upon investigation we concluded not to take up." Mr. Worthington: "Then the disposition of the American Railway Union appears to have been to assist the city?" Mr. Hopkins: "Yes, sir." Mr. Worthington: "During or before the strike were there any overtures made in regard to arbitration?"
