Tratile was paralyzed in tile yards froll ii o'clock -Saturday night to 7 o'clock 'this morning and no freight trains were dispatched from Asheville during this period.

Craft ofilcials said, however, that the men will work without further in terruption ot yard service, provided the yard -men do not come in contact with guards.
