Tdke Possession of Sta
tion and Incoming
Trains at Cork.
Cork, Feb. 13.—Refusing to
accept the terms offered for set
tlement of the late railway
strike, a group of railroad em
ployes -today seised the station
and captured all trains ready to
leave. v *■
No trains were allowed to
leave Cork, and several incom
ing trains were taken in charge
upon arrival.
Up to mid-afternoon no pow
erful opposition has been offered
the strikers, but it is certain the
forees of the railroad company
will attempt to regain control of
its property at the earliest mo
ment possible.
