Frick Il Co., which shut down when the
rioting began, resumed this morning with
forty eight men, or about oue-third Of
the men necessary to run the works IN

men TO come out agaiu. The Tyrone
works are in operation with full quota
Of men.
Reports have just come In that the
men remaining ont will take a secret bal
lot this afternoon TO determine whether
TO remain out or return to work. II IS
said the feeling is strong against the cuu-
tinuance OF the strike. Reports received
at labor headquarters show the arrival
this morning Of two carloads OF Italians
at the Whitney and Tippincott works.
The sheriff is still arresting rioters.
They refuse to give bail and go to jail.
Nearly half of the rioters are women who
take their children with them to prison.

MOrewOOd riot was resumed at Greens

UNJUST DISCRIMINATION
Canadian Railroads to Be Sub
iect to Laws of the
United States
Senator Cullom of the Inter
state Commerce Commission
on the Subject
A Crisis in the New York Cen
trail Canadian Pacific
Alliance

WASHINGTON, April 1G-Senator Cullom
OF the interstate commerce commission,
confirms the news that Secretary Blaine
is considering the question of the subiec-
tiOn Of Canadian roads to the transpOrta-
tion laws OF the United States. Senator
Cullom and the secretary have already
conferred informally on the question.
The Illinois senator was, perhaps, the
first to perceive the Importance Of this sub
ject, and il was at his instance that the
senate authorized special committee to
make a careful investigation Of the mat
ter year ago. Said Senator Cullom last
night:
If Mr.. Blaine has taken up this sub
iect in earnest, as have reason TO believe
that he has, shall have hope of some
thing being accomplished. No other IN
ternational question now occupying at
teBtion Is as important as this. Trade
reciprocity with Canada is nothing. If
Canadian railways are permitted to go on
cutting the throats of our transportation
lines, discriminating against our cities,
and diverting traffic from its legitimate
GndnntlS, we must MAXI war Oh ldudud
all along the line. We must adopt her
policy Of selishness in every phase of our
relationship till we have forced her gov
ernment into a more liberal policy. For
the protection Of our commercial and
transportation interests we must insist
upon the subsection of Canadian railways
to the provisions Of our interstate com
merce law.
New YORK, April 16-The Sun this
morning says: A crisis seems not far
away in the New York Central Canadian
Pacific alliance. The path Of President
Chauncey NJ. Depew has not been strewn
with roses since that event. He has
found out that there are other presidents
of Vanderbilt lines besides the head OF
the New York Central. Cornelius Van
derbiit, G. NJ. Depew and ii. Walter
Webb seem to have had chiefly the inter
ests of the New York Central in mind
when they made the alliance with the
Canadian Pacific railroad. They did not
reckon the effect that it would have on
the Western Vanderbilt roads, but they
have heard from them since. A big
family row has been the result and the
presidents of the Lake Shore and Michi-
gan Central companies had sufficient in
dependence, il is said, TO give Depew a
| piece OF their minds They protested
| that the Canadian Pacific would iniurC
them. 1t has an entrance into Chicago

RESTRICTING THE CLERGY
English Clergymen Must be Moral or
be Punished

LONDON, April 16-The new clergy bill,
supported by the archbishops Of Canter-
bury and York, has made decided sen.
sation among the clergy OF the English
church, who for the first time are held to
a strict responsibility for good behavior
The bill has received hearty support,
owing to the frequent scandals which
have shocked the public and the difficulty
OF dealing with immoral clergymen under
the old law. The bill provides that II a
clergyman has been sentenced to penal
servitude or hard labor or convicted Of a
minor but disgraceful offense, or has been
the respondent or correspondent in a sue
cessful suit for absolute divorce. he shall
be deprived of his benefce, and the sheriff
shall see that he is kept away from it, in
stead OF being permitted, Ike a certain
suspended clergyman. to guide visitors
through the church and receive gra-
tulties.
| In one instance, clergyman who had
been tried for heinous crime was let off
with a conviction of mlsdemeanor and
sentenced to eighteen months imprison-
ment. AS it was the only way to get rid
| OF him and prevent his return from Jail 10
the pulpit, the bishop Of York took ad-
vantage OF clause in the law which
made beneice vacant unless the clergy
man performed two services year II or
dered by the bishop. Notices to perform
the services were served on the clergyman
! in prison, and, Of course, were not Obeyed
In this way the benelice was made vacant
Under the new bill such trouble will moi
be necessary on the part OF the prelate.
