Lawrence Barrett, the actor, who seems
to enjoy the confidence of President
Cleveland to an extent denied to common
mortals, says that, on the occasion of It
recent call he found the President quite
discouraged because he had received no
generous sympathy from the public, and
no honest, patriotic counsel The last
complaint can hardly be well founded.
Mr.. Cleveland has received not a little
honest and patriotic counsel. We have
given him some ourselves. AS for sym
pathy he would get more if he had not de-
liberately and with his eyes open so often

as important as the senatorial question to

not afford to lose power and prestige by

PHILADELPHIA, Feb 5-The hesrtlessness

GREAT STREET-CAR STRIKE,
New York Conductors and Drivers Leav
Their Cars Shorter Hours Wanted.

Their Cars-Shorter Hours Wanted.
New YORK, Feb 5.-The conductors and
drivers on all the surface roads on the west
side Of the city, and those on Sixth and
Seventh avenues and Fourth avenue lines,
and also those of the Broadway line, went
out on a strike early Thursday morning
Their grievance, as far rs can be learned, is
that their demand for curtailment of their
hours to twelve per day has not been
granted But very few cars were run on
any of the lines named during the morning
and those that were sent out from the COM
panies' stables had two policemen stationed
on the front Platform of each in order t.
prevent the strikers from attacking the men
Who manned the car The groups of strikers
congregated along the lines of the various
roads and excitedly discussed the situation,
but made no attempt at a breach of the
peace.
Twcuty-seven hundred men are out of
work by this strike John G. Caville, a
prominent official of the Knights of Labor,
seems TO be leading the dissatisfied men.
The Strike was peculiarly unfortunate for
uptown people, as there was great snow
tall Wedne day night, which made walking
weli-nigh impossible.
LATER-President Cu,tis, of the Sixth
avenue surface railroad, received the com
mttee from the Drivers association during
the morning, when matters were arranged
satisfactorily aid the men resumed work.
This is the only road that up to II a. m. had
resumed operations
The board Of directors held a short
session Thursday, at which Super
intend ut Newell laid before them
the demands OF the men. The dire,~
tors voted TO conceda the demands made by
the men ana Superintendent Newell was in,
struct ID to notify the strikers that within q
week the schedule would be arranged in ac
coriance with their wishes.
THE LATEs:-IEe difiiculty with the
Fourth avenue line was ended later in the
afternoon. \ satisfactory arrangement was
made between the company and the drivers
and at 80 p IA. the cars started running
| The di.iCuitls have TUH been ad iustel OF
all tie liGeS, and the strike is at an end.
