BIG TIE-UP.

The Entire System of the Consolidated
Street Railway at Columbus, o., at q
Sta dstill.
COLUMBUS, Nov. 9.-The entire system
of the Consolidated Street Railway was
tied up yesterday morning. The strike
was caused by the discharge of Con-
ductor Clarence Alexander, who had de-
clined to accept a mutilated dime from
a passenger. The passenger claimed to
have received the coin from another
conductor but as the rules of the COM
pany make the conductors stand good
for mutilated coins, Alexander refused
to accept it, whereupon the passenger
reported him.
General Manager Stewart states that
the company Immediately began an In
vestigation and had about come to the
conclusion that Alexander was not in
fault and would probably have rein
stated him, but the employees demanded
that he be reinstated Immediately. The
investigation not being completed, the
company refused to accede this demand
and at about o'clock yesterday morn
ing the employees held meeting and
decided upon the tie-up. The action OF
the employees was kept very quiet and
the company as well as the citizens
were taken wholly by surprise. There
has been considerable trouble between
the employees and management for some
time owing to the frequency of the
shortage slips furnished to the conduc-
| tors
One conductor, who counted his casf
in the presence of a lawyer and depos-
tied it in the company's box, was noti
fed that he was three dollars short OF
the trip. It is thought that this aidee
greatly in the action taken by the mel
to go out in support of Alexander. Tn
company directors held consultation
with the mayor and were promised pc
lice protection should they attempt t
| run cars.

NEW YoRK LEGISLATURE.



ALBANY N. y, Jan. 2t-The Judici-
ary Committee of the Senate handed
down the following report in the cases of
Senators O'Connor Saxton and Erwin,
accused Of contempt:
The oflense in the instances under, con-
sideration was both deliberate and de-
fiant, as shown by the acts and language
of the Senators, and when committed by
Senators of long service here and expert
ence in public affairs, who took part in
framing the very rule they violated, it
cannot but be regarded as an affront to
the di5nity of the Senate, which deserves
and should receive deliberate censure.
A breach of order recognized in the
Manual if persisted in by n Senator be-
comes a contempt beyond all question
Therefore your committee submit the
following resolutions:
Resolved-That Mr.. Senator Erwin,
Mr. Senator SaXtou and Mr.. Senator
O'Connor, for refusing TO vote
on a pending question, after their
respective requests to be excused there
from had been denied by the Senate, and
for which said refusal they were right
fully declared in contempt be and each
| of them is hereby declared censured, and
further, that the suspension heretofore
ordered against the said Senators, and
each of them, be continued until the
opening of the session of the Senate on
the morning of Thursday, the 2lst inst
Senator Mullin said that everything
| had been rushed so that he hardly had
time TO dissent and he desired that the
Senate give him until Thursday at II
, O'Clock to present a minority report This
was granted.
