COMING TO TERMS.

Through the Intervention of the Cttizens'
 Association the striking Strcet-Car Men in Chicago and President 1erkeS Come to an Understanding and the Strike is
 About settled.
 CHICAGO, Oct. 13.-Not a head was cracked nor Il car thrown from the track yesterday. Cars were run over three of the North Side lines and on Madison street on the West Side. The police preparations were even more elaborate than those of Wednesday, and the enthu- siasm of the crowds was evidently damp ened by the drizzling rain which com- menced falling in the morning and con- tinued until after dark. Owing to these causes, and perhaps also to a gradually waning interest ia the strike, the running of cars was attended with scarcely any difficulty Some school children caused a mementary stop- page of the cars on Garfield avenue by piling stones on the track, but the youngsters were quickly chased away by the police, and beyond an occasional yell of "scab" from the side walk, the cars proceeded in peace. Passengers, how ever, were almost as scarce as yesterday, and for the most part the police rode up and down the line in solitary state. In response to a call made upon both sides by the Citizens Association, there was conference held at the mayors office last evening be- tween committees of the strikers and President Yerkes. Mayor Roche also was present. It was announced at the conclusion of the conference that the strikers had agreed to withdraw their de : mand for the discharge of the imported men. ca behalf of the company, Mr.. Gerkes agreed that if the West Side men would return to work this morning he would execute a bond not to reduce their present rate of wages for five years, and that he would tomorrow morning make satisfactory proposition to the North Side men.
 The West Side committee retired to submit this proposition to the meeting of the West Side men last night As the nominal cause of the strike on the West Side was an apprehension on the Fart of the men that their wages would be re- dueed to the North Side standard, Mr. Yerkes' proposition puts them in an awk- ward situation, as it practically comedies what they etaim, and if they reject it, they will be put in the position of re- maining out without cause.
 At midnight the meeting of tho West Side employees decided to accept Presi- dent Yerkes' proposition, and return to work in the morning, with the under- standing that they will again strike if satisfactory terms are not made between the company and the North Side men. The latter will not resume work until they have heard the proposition which President Yerkes is to make to them at eleven o'clock this forenoon.

 Valley Excursion Trains SAW nt Mud

Valley Excursion Trains SAW nt Mud
 Run.
 SCRANTON. Pa, Oct. 12 " alter Me- Nichols, of the Scranton post-office, gives the following thrilling account of his ex- perience iu the Lehigh Valley disaster on Wednesday night: "I was on the train following the one that was run into, sit ting in a car about the middle of the train. The first 1 knew Of the accident was the sudden and tremendous Jarring of the train. It was then about 7:l5 o'clock. Two engines were pulling the train on which I was on. As soon as the crash occurred the people who filled the hind train at once rushed for the doors. The jam was fear full The people went out of the windows pell-meIl, and the first I saw was the forward engine of our train jammed into the hind coach of the for ward train. The ears had taken fire rom the broken lamps, but the flames were quickly extinguished by the use of buck cts. The scenes were fearful.
