The Minneapoli. strike.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., April 12.-The street car company made its first formal attempt to raise the strike shortly after 1 o'clock this af- ternoon. The move was made at the Fourth avenue car barns. A special detail of police men was on hand to ride in the car and see that order was kept. President Lowry and Manager Goodrich drove to the spot in car riage to see the first wheel move. The car proceeded on its way but had not gone twen- ty feet before it was stopped by the men, the horses unhitched and the car showed back Tn the barn. The car carried Sergeant Hein and several policemen, but they made no at- tempt to arrest anyone.
 Two cars that were started out this after noon under police protection were stopped by crowds of excited strikers and the drivers forced to leave. Mounted police charged the mob in each case, making several arrests and doing considerable clubbing. No more cars were sent ont however

A Legislative Excursion.

WILSON POINT, April 12.-The excursion train of six cars from Hartford with members of the legislature, arrived here ct 1:10 p. n. The excursionists numbered about two hund- red. A large number of ladies are also of the party. Five long tables loaded with re- treatments were at once surrounded by ex- cursionists who did ample justice to the spread after long rides. They afterwards strolled about the Point and pier of the New England Terminal company and looked at the railroad facilities for the transfer of freight and passengers. The excursion train left here about p. m. Colonel William H. Stevenson, vice president and general mana- ger, accompanied the excursion party.
 Exciting Times Locked For.
 NEW YORK, April 12.-A private letter received today from a trustworthy gentle- man residing in the City of Mexico says:
 Four of the men arrested on the charge of being implicated in the deraiIment of Presi- dent sDiazs train few weeks ago have been shot. The execution was carried out very quietly. The prospect now is that we are going to have exciting times here before long. The impression is deepening in many minds that President Diaz will not be able to maintain his position to the end of his present term. Indeed, many think that General Gonzales will succeed to the presi- dency before eighteen months have passed.

CRUMLEY G GILMER.

There was another collision on the
f. I. va G. road last Sunday at
Carriers. II you will stop ringing that
chestnut bell a few moments we will
explain. 1t was a singular occur
renee. The conductor on the east
bound train forgot his orders to meet
a west-bound train at Carriers and
met just beyond there and the result
was two engines were badly torn up,
several cars mashed into kindling
wood, passenger trains delayed, and
last but not least, two brakeman were
badly bruised and may lose some
limbs. All because a conductor for
got his orders. But what else can be
expected as long as a railroad compa-
ny employs incompetent engineers
and conductors. The Legislature
should take the matter in charge and
compel railroad companies to employ
intelligent men in all branches and
make them pass a rigid examination
before they are allowed to have con-
troll of trains. Unless some change
is made in the employees of the E. T.
va G. road an undertaken and sur.
geon ought to be sent out on each
train.

They also state in a modest way

stronger than other dealers, and that
they have sold thirteen since they
