A STREET CAR WAR.
me st. Paul Company Again in the
Midst Of Trouble.

Midst Of Trouble.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, April 29.--The street
car company has now another strike on
hand. The men at work on the cable line
on East Seventh street. LOIS in number,
lett their work at l o'clock today. For
some time past the men have been dissat-
isiied with the wages they received, Sl.25
per day, and have been organizing secretly
so as to obtain an increase of % cents per
day II possible. Yesterday secret meet
ing was held and committee appointed
to confer with the company, and this noon
the committee fulfilled its duty. The
mems demands were refused, and ten min
utes later word went along the line, start
ing at Cedar and Seventh to Seventh and
Duluth streets that the men had to come
out. AS the committee and the men
who had left the work marched along the
structure they notified and took along the
other men. All seemed to be prepared
and ready to follow until the committee
arrived Mt Broadway, where two men were
ut work, who refused to obey the order
OF the strikers. Immediately stones and
| dirt commenced 10 fly around at such rate
that they thought it the best policy to
| quit also. They were received with cheers
by the strikers and taken along further
east At three O'Clock only the gas testers,
who are not in the employ OF the com.
pany, were seen at work in the
trenches and the strike on the line was
general. After the men went out the
greater number Of them assembled on the
bluff, and appearance being considered
threatening, the mounted police squad
were sent to the scene under Lieut. Rudy,
at 245. All along Seventh, from Broad
way to the railway bridge, men were scat
tered in groups discussing the situation.
From what could be gathered they APP
peared to be in quiet, but determined
mood. There was a complete absence OF
blood and fire vituperation, and vague
and dark threats. 1--WE want living
wages, was the unanimous sentiment fall.
There was no sign OF trouble, nor did
general conversation with several OF the
men show that any was contemplated.
Both sides claim TO be sure OF success.

Abolition of Judas.

Judas has boon officially abolished IN the
Island OF Madeira. 1T has been a time
honored custom OF the natives to exhibit in
one OF their numerous religious professions
an efigy OF Judas, upon which the oppro.
brium OF the populace was duly heaped
and at the close Of the day Judas was
burned with vociferous expressions Of
triumph and Joy OF late years it has hap.
pened that the efigy of~Judas has borne a
striking resemblance to some person upon
whom the general public had ceased TO
smile, and thus the Governor Of the island,
tie mayor OF Funchal, and u foreign Con.
sui havo been carlcatured in the procession
and burned in efigy The powers that be
have decided.that the admixture Of politics
and religion is not wholesome, and so the
edict hus gone forth that hereafter the peo-
pie must getalong without Judas.
