Strikers Losing their Grip.

New YORK, February 1.-The indi-
cations today in the great street car
tie-up are, that the companies are
gaining ground, and the strikers have
lost their grip. The Sd and 4th ave-
nue. lines and 23d street cars are run
ming; unless the strikers assume more
organized opposition than they have
thus far developed, it is probable all
lines will run today. All roads have
been notified by their old employers
that they must return today to work,
or consider themselves discharged.
Judging from applications for work
made by old hands yesterday, great
many strikers are in great need, and
the opinion is hazarded by we'll in
formed people that the strike will not
be of long duration. The men seek
ing work today were not disturbed.

Not Apoplexy but Suicide.

VIENNA, February lit is now
officially announced, that Crown
Prince Rudolf committed suicide Cy
shooting himself in the head. The
weapon used was a revolver.
The Wiener Zeitung says: Professor
Wiederhofer, who performed an au-
topsy on the remains Of the Crown
Prince Rudolf, found a large wound
inside of his head, which must have
caused instant death. The revolver,
with one chamber discharged, was
found close to the right hand of the
dead prince. The position in which
it was found, proved beyond doubt
that the prince committed suicide.

UNCLE SAM shows symptoms of
waking up in the Samoa matter. The
news heretofore received has been so
very uncertain and unreliable that
intelligent comment upon the situa-
ton has been impossible. The Paci-
fic slope is very much agitated over
matters and naturally, as the Ameri-
can shipping interests in the Pacific
ocean are largely involved. Germany
'Ehas taken a high hand in the direc-
ton of Samoan affairs and having an
nounced her intention of searching
all vessels that touch at the island
there is likely to be diplomatic music
in the air IL no more. What Bayard
will do Cannot be predicted. The
lamentable indifference which has
characterized the foreign Office in its
protection of American rights abroad
has no doubt had much to do with
the encroachment of Germany upon
national rights. Bismarck was never
known to be bashful where he had
any interests at stake and the eX-
treme backwardness of Mr.. Bayard in
Maintaining the rights of this govern
inent abroad has been taken advan-
tage of by the European dictator.
What course this administration will
take no enc knows. Fortunately in
five weeks more there will be a
change at Washington and foreign
affairs will be looked after as we'll as
