POLICEMEN on a SIXTH AVENUE CAR.
kept busy in clearing the way and in dispegs-
ing the. crowds Of strikers who gathered in q
threatening manner at various points along
the route AT about . o'clock the crowd at
Thirty-ninth street overturned a peddler's
wagon in front of an approaching car. This
caused good deal Of excitement and some
delay but the policemen succeeded in driving
the crowd away after arresting the ring
leader Another arrest was made at Thirty
fourth street, where the track had been OBJ
structed by large truck being placed across
it. Three other arrests of strikers charged
with rioting were made during the day. At
4 D. IN. the company decided 10 suspend opera
tions for the day, and no more cars were sent
out Of the depot
The Fourth Avenue line only succeed in
getting two cars over IFS road during the day.
The strikers Of this line We're much more
demonstrative than those Of the other roads,
and very serious trouble was threatened sew
eral times during the day. At Twenty-third
street the strikers unhitched the horses from
a cross town car, and then overturned the
car across the Fourth avenue tracks This
obstruction was removed with great difficulty
by the policemen. The mob attempted to
drive the officers away, but were compelled
to succumb 20 the free use Of clubs by the
policemen. Capt. Ryan arrested the ring
leader Of this crowd, and was Immediately
surrounded by hundred men bent upon res
cuing their leader The captain drew his re-
volver, and gave warning that he would
shoot dead the first man who inteyfered with
him. He then succeeded in getting his pris-
oner 70 the station house without further in
reference. The officers of the company
claimed to be satisfied with their days work
in getting the two ears over the route, and
no others We're sent out.
The presidents Of several Of the roads re
newed their demands upon the mayor for
police protection. Master Workman Magee
called upon the mayor, and complained that
the police officers were too otiicious in theiI
opposition to the strikers. The mayor stated
that the police department was responsible
for the preservation of order, and that he wa,
satisfied that they were acting with discretion
and would not exceed their authority.
The causes of the present strike are deep anC
far reaching in their bearing upon the rela
tiOns between the companies and the men. an,
in reality they mark decisive point in Tn
controversy between the two sides. The com
panies have for some time been taking Ia
ground that they should deal with their EN-
| ployes singly, and refuse to treat with tn

The great feature Of the day was the insult

fellow commissioners of the state board Of

Donovan was bluntly told that the company
had no use for him or his committee.
The state board Of mediation and arbitra-
ton sent a communication to each Of the
presidents of the tied up companies, inviting
them to confer with the board at the Murray
Hill hotel The only response they received
was the personal attendance of Superintend-
ent Slitt, Of the Fourth Avenue. He said
that the company was disposed 20 settle with
their men, but was determined not 10 nego-

come across from West Superior in a
and clubs. Foreman Philip SecOr,
James Samways, George Close and H..

quite seriously. The assailants took to
the boats when the police appeared. /
A New York man who is agent for
several syndicates passed through here
to-day. He is about to float the bonds
for the Port Arthur, Duluth & Western
railway, which is intended to give ac-
cess to the great silver region about
Port Arthur. The road will be COM
menced inside of month and will ex-
tend eighty-six miles to the boundary,
where it will connect with the Iron
Range.
President A. M. Miller, of the Mer.

the statement that the Duluth Union
National and the Merchants National
are arranging for consolidation. The
combined capital of the proposed cOn-
binatiOn would he Zoo, 000-that of thA

Merchants 100000. The Duluth Union
National was organized year ago from
the Duluth National and the Union Ma

change would make it possible to handle
Duluth's immense grain business in

PLUroCRACY.

The expenses for an election to par
lament not interdicted by the stringent
enactments Of later years amount to a
round sum, and there is no pay OF per-
quisites to the position. The theory of
the thing was to fill the house with the
people of means, as the others could not
afford to serve. AS natural result, the
membership has quite largely fallen
into the hands of interests that could
afford to put up for the expenses OF the
election and supply the lack of salary
for the sake of controlling votes. 1t is
asserted that $50 members of the COM
mons are but the agents of railroads and
other corporations that may be affected
by legislation. In the United States
senate many seats are held by those who
paid vastly more for them than the sal
airy will amount to, and their interests
are interviewer with those of corpora
lions and classes with special privileges.
The plutocrats are becoming entrenched
in the places of legislation and power in
nation and state.

How the legislature succeeded in

1t would have been well, perhaps, had
a law been passed. in addition to this
quasi-censorship law, that papers should
not give any extended account Of trials
for divorce. especially when they are as

in Chicago. That case is stencil in
