The Biggest Strike on Electric Roads Known
in This Country.
CLEVELAND, OHIO. June 2S.-The four lines
Of the East Cleveland street railroad, compris-
ing Euclid avenue, Cedar avenue, Central ave-
nue. and Wade Park avenue, were tied up this
morning a 5 O'Clock. These lines run from the
east end to the center of the city, and comprise
the largest street railroad system in town.
The strike has been brewing for some days,
and was in part precipitated by the strike ex-
listing on the Broadway and Newburg lines
Attempts to run cars were prevented by the
strikers, who were congregated at the barns on
the different lines. Thousands of people
walked to their places of business this morning.
1t il said that the strike win spread to all the
lines in the city before forty-eight hours have
expired.
Superintendent Stately of the Broadway and
Newburg Company attempted to run q car, but
the strikers pushed it from the track. The
Broadway and Newburg officials have called ON
the sheriff for protection, and will endeavor to
run cars today.
The mill workers in the south end are in
strong sympathy with the Broadway strikers
and a strike is expected. The East Cleveland
Company ran one car east manned by police.
Everything is quiet on this company lines.
The strikes are for increased wages and ten
hour day.
1t is the largest strike for the electric roads
since that system has been adopted in this
country.

MR.. HILL SENDS THANKS.
His Message to Edward Murphy, jr., OF the
New York Delegation.

His Message to Edward Murphy, jr., OF the
New York Delegation.
CHICAGO, June 23-Edward Murphy, IT,, re-
ceived the following telegram this morning:
Hon. Edward Murphy. Auditorium Hotel:
Please express to the New York delegation my heart
dasy .nd Tor the Gallant ash. Which they made to
tsieneD - ' ~ DAVID B. HILL.
Some Of the New York delegates left Chicago
for home this morning and the Tammany
boomers had prepared to 60 ALSO but they were
stopped by the leaders. who believed that such
action would give rise to the inference that they
were already stampeding the candidate.
The leaders are very careful to say that they
will do their utmost to see that the state Of
New York shall 60 democratic. They do not
attempt, however in any way to smooth over
their former assertions Of Mr.. Cleveland's in
ability to carry the state.
Edward Murphy said "we have the hardest
campaign Of fighting to go through that ever
was undertaken. In a few short months we
have got to overcome remarkably strong sec
tional prejudice"
Richard Croker said: '.Tammany Hall will do
its share toward supporting democracy and
making it triumphant"
Congressman Bourke Cochran refused to be
interviewed The majority Of Tammany peo-
pie decided to go home early this afternoon
During the morning there was q conference Of
the New York delegation, at which the question
Of attending the convention this even
ing was discussed in lively man.
ner. Chairman Murphy and Gov. Flower
both advocated going into the convention and
striving, if possible to beat Gray of Indiana for
Vice President. 1t is said that the Indiana
people only threw their vote to Mr. Cleveland
because Of promises made them, and many of
the New Workers were in favor of trying to
break up this deal.
Mr.. Murphy said after the meeting that they
would concentrate on any candidate, Morri-
son, Boies or Palmer, to beat Mr.. Gray.

WHAT DELEGATESSAY


New York was reached. Her solid "a votes for
Hill we're greeted with applause.
Ohio's vote was awaited with interest When
1t gave l6 votes for Boies the Iowa men set up
q mighty yell As the roll call proceeded the
excitement became intense.
1t culminated when Alaska cast her two votes
for Cleveland. There was growing excitement
Both the Hill and the Cleveland leaders were
around the Arizona delegates waiting the an
nouncement Of their vote. It had been sup
posed that Arizona and New Mexico which had
been given additional representation in the
convention, would vote with the Cleveland
people. When the chairman Of the Arizona
delegation got the floor and announced five
votes for Cleveland there was wild and renewed
cheering and such confusion both in the gal
leries and on the floor that it was impossible to
transact business.
Mr.. Sheehan Of New York came up the aisle
and demanded that order be restored before
the roll call proceeded Order was restored
and Alaska called again. Then the District Of
Columbia was called and cast her two votes for
Cleveland that gave him all but two-thirds of q
vote OF the COZ necessary to nominate
New Mexico settled the question the next
minute when she announced four votes for
Cleveland. -
Delegates filed the aisles and stood on their
chairs. Michigan got out her banner for a
demonstration, but there was more CONVERSE
ton than cheering and the banner was put
away quickly, while the secretary with the cast
iron voice continued the call of the roll. Every
other vote was for Cleveland, and when the
roll call was completed he had 6l7x.

Treatment Of the Tzar's Consumptive Son.
From the Pail Mall Gazette.
The Grand Duke George, the tzar's second
son, who, ever since his enforced return,
through illness, from his Indian tour, has been
under medical treatment for pulmonary dis
ease, has been passing the winter at Abbas-
Truman, in the Caucasus. 4 private letter from
that place states that his imperial highness il
undergoing most remarkable course Of treat
ment. The walls in his apartments are bare
and unpapered, the furniture il Of plain wood
or cane, without upholstering1 Or stulf-covering
Of any kind, and his bed consists only Of the
thinnest Of mattresses. Throughout the winter
only very moderate fire has been kept up,
while the windows Of the grand dukes rooms
have been continuously open. His attendants
have suffered dreadfully from the cold; but hi
medical advisers hold that this low tempsra-
ture il very beneficial to their imperial patient,
% II tends to destroy the bacillus and prevent
the formation Of tubercle They maintain that
the progress Of the disease has been arrested,
and express hopes that, il the treatment which
they pres0ribe IL persevered with, the grand
duke viii In two years time have completely
recovered.

NEAR TO DEFEAT,
Had Arkansas Stayed by German Cleveland
Would Have Lost.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star

Had Arkansas Stayed by German Cleveland
Would Have Lost.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
CHICAGO, June 23.
Without the vote Of Arkansas, which on
Monday had been against Cleveland, he would
have fallen below the two-thirds necessary to
nominate him. Without the vote Of Indiana,
which Mr.. Whitney argued over to him
on Monday night, he would have
failed Of the nomination.
BOURKE cocKRAN's PROTEST.
The one supremely impressive thing in the
convention was the protest Of Mr.. Cochran,
which closed the contest.
The people in the body of the hall and in the
galleries alike settled into absolute silence when
he began in a clear and ringing voice to ex-
plain the attitude of New York. As great an ad-
vocate as Cochran is, as powerful as have been
many of his pleadings, he has never before
equaled and will probably never, surpass the
eloquence and power of his argument delivered
at the closing hours of this convention. The
delegates and the audience assembled had been
wearied by many hours of waiting and were i'm
patient of all Grating, but he held them by the
power of his eloquence in perfect silence, amaze
ment and admiration. r
A less determined majority would have
been overcome and compelled to FOL
low in submission under the influence
OF such an appeal, but this audience
seemed to be impressed with the argument
as work of art, to study the orator as a marvel
of elOquence and to listen as If the design of the
speaker was merely to give them an exhibition
OF his mastery as an advocate. They yelled ad-
miration, but not conviction.
The episode was almost tragically dramatic
during the balloting which followed 1t
was evident that a great majority of
the convention were in doubt as to the
result. But the anti-Cleveland people knew
before the first state was called what the result
would be in the beginning.
THE BALLorINo
Cleveland made some hearty gains. Then
vote after vote which his friends had counted
on confidently slipped away from him, and
when the call was two-thirds over
those who had never before had
doubt Of Clevelands nomination we're almost
desperate with anxiety. but in the end for every
vote lost gain was made in another, and the
overwhelming power of success swelled the
majority after the danger point was passed.
The failure Of the attempt to make the vote
unanimous was not due to New York. but
it was not unexpected. as some Of the
southern democrats and silver men sympathiz-
ing with the Farmers Alliance had decided that
they would never permit the nomination to be
made unanimous. j. P. NJ.

Rather spasmodic Activity in the Stock
Market.
New YoRK, June 23.-The dealings in the
stock market this morning were marked by
rather spasmodic activity, but return Of the
firm temper, with few wide fluctuations,
though the list in general was still quiet and
traded in within narrow limits The opening
was quiet at only slight changes from last
nights figures. At II o'clock the market was
dull and steady to firm, generally at q shade
better than the opening prices.
In the stock market after II o'clock the
whole list followed Manhattan down, and prices
all along the line were brought below those of
the opening, except in the few strong stocks of
the early dealings.

THE HOUSE.
SENATOR HILL GRATEFUL.
He Expresses Appreciation for the Loyalty q
the New Workers.

IL was nearly 1 O'Clock today before senator
Hill appeared in his seat in the Senate chamber.
There was nothing in his appearance or man
ner 10 indicate that he was suffering
any acute pGngs Of disappointment. His
complexion was. perhaps. a shade more pale
than II has been of late but that might be easily
accounted for by the fact that he was up until
daylight this morning and that the
sleep he got in the sitting ntmos-
phere later not of refresh ing
character. The Senator was dressed in the
gray suit he has worn of late. and after taking
rs seat in the chamber chatted pleasantly with
his neighbors.
To a newspaper man who saw him for an in
slant the senator declined to say anything fur
Their than that he fcli deeply grateful for the
loyal manner in which the New York delega- ion
IN the Chicago convention had stood by him
He appreciated their loyalty and devotion to
the fullest
