met shortly after midnight last night and at
o'clock this morning adjourned. after deciding
not to return to work. Accordingly all the

tation on Queen, Yonge and Ratsburn streets. No
GATHERINGS of strikers on the streets were to be

depots and at the company's stables. The prin-

sign what they call an iron-cad document that
they will not become embers of any labor or
ganization. They demand, it's withdrawal,
shorter hours and increased pay. The superin-
tendent of the company says thew will not yield

THE PRESIDENTS MARRIAGE.
A Quiet Ceremony, Away from the White
House, In june.


Washington Special
The marriage of President Cleveland and Miss
frankie Folsom will take place about the middle
of June. There is no reason to believe that the
ceremony will be performed at the White House,
but on the contrary, there is general impress
sion that it will be private one at the brides
residence in Buffalo. The date fixed is at a time
when Congress will be in session, but the Presi-
dent can leave the city for few days without
any discomfort.
1t is understood that Miss Cleveland, who has
thus far performed the social duties attendant
upon her brothers position so acceptably, is well
pleased with the prospect of his marriage and
will be glad to be relieved from a mode of life
which has never been thoroughly coneenial to
her. The old farmhouse of Holland Patent is
being remodeled tor her future residence, and
new furniture has been purchased for the guest
chamber The wedding will be a very quiet af
fair, for the President is averse to any display,
and only the most intimate friends of the bride
and groom will be present The members of the
Cabinet and their families will be invited
