FERED TO THE MEN
FROM VARIOUS
sOURrFg

The city was extremely quiet yesterday, ami
on several of the ticd-up lines streetcars were
run with regularity. But it cannot be said that
the strike is over. No attempt has yet been
made to operate the Second-ave., Seventh-ave-
Eighth-ave. and Ninth-ave. roads. For five days
they have been idle. The companies contend that
it would do no good to run out one or two cars.
which might easily have been DONE while to run
out more would have been unadvisable, because
OF insufficient police protection.
Inspector Byrnes and large force Of police
men took one car over the Belt line, simply to
convince the strikers that such feat could bo
accomplished. The public derived no particular
advantages from this.
Numerous accidents occurred on the operated
lines, owing to the inexperience OF new drivers
In many instances the policeman who guarded
the front platform made himself ex-
tremely useful by managing the brake, leaving tho
green hand to look after the team. There can
be no doubt that the companies will gladly take
back their former employees whenever they may
choose to return. The teaching Of several hundred
new drivers and conductors is task not to their
liking. A precedent for this is found in previous
strikes majority of the affected companies
gave the old men until last night to return;
it is now understood that several have given an
extension until Monday. The strikers, even
in the face Of defeat remain confident of victory.
Master Workman Magee declares there shall be
no backing down.
In the meantime the police are guarding Life

The Terrible Fate Reported of a
French Party in Yellow, tone Park.
A half breed hunter and trapper from the
extreme northwestern quarter Of the terri
tory brings tidings to Cheyenne, Wy, of
the atrocious massacre by Indians of party
of five French tourists In Ye lowstone Ma

the story at Canyon City. a new mining
town near the pa k, where Hank Ferry, the
guide and sole survivor, repo ted the slaugh-
ter. Ferry says his charges included NJ LIE
Clair and wife, j. Vincent and wife and Paul
Gerot, father of Nine Vincent.
The guides story cf the murder is most
graphic. Just before dawn on the day of the
murder blood-curdling yells and fusilade
of shots reused Ferry. He realized the situa-
ton and crawling through the brush took
refuge in the mouth of sloping gyser. Here
he heard the pteous groans and begging
Of the foreigners, mingled with the
yelling of the redskins The lat
ter proceeded with the murders
and killed old Gerot just as the sun was
rising. Wound after wound was inflicted
before the death shot was given. No body
contained less than 10 bullets, and the re-
mains of Vincent, who made a desperate
struggle for life, were completely rfddled
The savageS passed the morning in further
mutilating tie bodies and pilaging their out
Ct Ferry afterwards escaped.
