My Operative N.J.C. further reports-
Kansas City Apr 5th 88
I arrived at the Union Depot Yards at 8 a.m. and gave my special attention to gathering such information as would tend to show what the feelings of the strikers were towards the last [supt] as per instruction.
I talked with a member of the Strikers and all seemed friendly disposed. they say what he does is is orders from Chicago. The general feeling is that Arthur mismanaged things - and is responsible for the present position of the strike - one Engineer said. He guessed he would not wait any longer but would go on to New York and try and get on the Elevated roads
