They Rcsd Reports, Pass Resolutions and
Raise Funds for Strikers.
The annual district meeting of X. of L.
No. 3 was held last night at the hall. A
good representation was present, owing to
the fact that the election of officers was
scheduled to take place This feature,
however, was postponed until this morn
ing at 9 o'clock. Nearly go delegates wer e
in attendance representing $3.50 people.
The business transacted was chiefly the
reading of reports and a general review of
the affairs in the district. All were very
encouraging. Siy new assemblies were
added to No. in the past three months.
Master Workman Dempsey and the Finan-
cial Secretary read their reports. showing a
large increase in the membership roles snd
financial condition of affairs. Assessments
of 80 cents were levied upon all members of
the district, which money is to aid the Man
chester Street Railway strikers in their
cause. All delegates of assemblies pres
ent were instructed to have meetings
called and urge the members to make
prompt settlement. Resolutions were passed
condemning the blue laws, and the methods
of the Law. and Order Society in its perni-
cious activity. The General Assembly will
be asked to prepare some measure to pre-
sent at the next session of the State Legis-
lature condemning the conspiracy laws
At the election to-day there will be no
opposition to Master Workman Dempsey or
Secretary L. Hoechstetter, both of whom
will probably be reelected. 1t is thought
that 81 900 will be collected for the aid of
the strikers by Saturday night.

TO LEASE Is CHEAPER.
A Proposition Made the City to Pur-
chase a Bridges Right.
THE SMITHFIELD STREET SPAN.
Free Toll for the Pedestrians to and From
the Southside.
SOME SUGGESTIONS OF A DIRECTOR

Pedestrians who traverse the toll bridges
to and from the Southside, have prospects
of doing so at the expense of the city one of
these days. The free bridge question is
being agitated and the method of accom-
plishing the matter has been discussed
freely recently.
Controller Morrow has interested himself
as city official, and he is now awaiting the
opinion of the Southside people upon the
proposition made. j. M. Bailey, a director Of
the Monongahela Bridge Company, owning
the Smith6eld street bridge, has consulted
with Controller Morrow, explaining how
much more advantageous and cheaper it
would be for the city to buy the foot right
from the company.
A Perfectly Legal Project.
Controller Morrow consulted with City
Attorney Moreland by letter, asking if it
would be legal proceeding to enter into
such contract, to which reply came that
it would be perfectly legal and binding.
All that was necessary to bring the matter
to an END was for Councils to agree upon
the deal. Mr.. Bailey was called upon at
his Penn avenue home last night.
eyes" he responded to the reporters
question, stI think the scheme is very prac-
tical-more so than any I have heard pro-
posed yet. The idea is to have the city pay
so much a year for the number of foot pas
sengers who go over the structure. The
number could easily be ascertained by count
ing for one month. Some months would
vary, of course, but not enough to
be noticeable or cause any big difference In
receipts In the long run the city would be
better off. rs new structure would proba-
bly, cost $500, 900. Bonds would, of course,
have to be issued and the interest on them
would have to be paid.
Arguments Favoring the Plan.
81 think, for the amount of this interest,
the toll of all foot passengers could COM
fortably be paid. Another thing, the loca-
ton proposed, between Tenth street and the
Smithfeld street bridge, is not a
good one for the new structure
talked of by the city. If one bridge is free
they all should be, which 1 think will ulti-
mately be the case. / am in favor of it.
Also of giving as much accommodation in
the cheapest way. AS to the wagons and
other vehicles, the owners of them can af-
ford to pay toll, and many have yearly
tickets 1t is not the expense connected
with the individuals, but the petty annoy
ance of stopping and cropping about in a
pocket full of change hunting for penny.
Allegheny and Pittsburg connecting bridges
ought to be free, and 1 am inclined to think
all will be thrown wide open if the con-
slant agitation OF the question continues.

COLLECTING TAEIFF STATISTICS
Mr.. Weeks Explains Why Enough Blscl
Plate Is 1sot Made in America.

Mr.. Weeks Explains Why Enough Black
Plate Is !Sot Made in America.
Joseph d. Weeks went TO New York last
evening 20 meet the Senate Finance Com
mittee This committee has been engaged
for seme time in investigating the effects of
the Mckinley tariff. Mr. Weeks will
probably be assigned to collect the statistics
on glass, iron and wages The committee
intend to go back into the history of tariff
legislation for the last 90 years for the pur-
pose of making comparisons
Mr.. Weeks thinks the present tariff the
most consistent ever established. None of
TIE articles are rated higher than the ma
terials out Of which they are made. For
instance, the duty on cotton ties is not
more than is placed on hoop iron, and the
same is true of other schedules As for the
scarcity Of black plate in America, Mr..
Weeks says it is due to simple causes. The
tin plate manufacturers are dependent
on this product It takes from
eight to ten months to build a
sheet iron mill The men in
this business never had anv assurance until
few months ago that the tariff on tin
plate would be maintained. In 1890 a
Democratic House with an overwhelming
majority was elected. This fact afforded
very little assurance to people engaged in
the tin plate business. Black plate is
made in America, but not in sufficient
quantities to supply the market For
several years the demand for sheet iron has
been In advance of the production.

last evening directing that Charles Stewart,
II years old. who has been in Central sta
tion since Tuesday, be sent to his home in
Bellaire, o. Last Sunday bright little

A LULL IN THE STORM.
The Presence Of Murphy's Blue
Coats Spbdues the Strikers.
CARSPUT IN OPERATION.
The Annual Election of District Assembly,
No. 8, Postponed.
SOME GENERAL INDUSTRIAL NOTES

Yesterday was quiet day in the Pitts
burg, Allegheny and Manchester Street
Railway employees strike. The presence OF
30 policemen had tendency to subdue the
riot-loving spirit of the mob and IL cars
were allowed to run at their pleasure over
the Western avenue branch.
Early in the morning Allegheny Police
Superintendent Muth arrived at the car
stables anc at once stationed his men along
the line. He was in command all day. At
$50 A. NJ IL cars were sent out Each car
carried two or three policemen. The cars
were not run as regular as usual 1t was
thought yesterday afternoon that the COM
pany would keep the road in operation dur
ing the evening, but all cars were called in
at 6 o'clock, and during the evening all was
quiet. Only ten officers were kept on duty.
To Await Further Charges
Yesterday morning, when Motorman
Mitchelrs case came up before Mayor
Wyman, he was sent back to the lookup to
await charges, which will be preferred by
the company. No one appeared to bail him
out
Martin Hele was also arrested and lodged
in the Pittsburg Central station on charge
of riot. District Master Workman Demp-
sey also had warrant served on him. He
was not locked up. These were the only
arrests made yesterday, but the officers have
warrants for quite a number OF other
strikers.
The hearing in the injunction case came up
yesterday afternoon. On application of L.
IL OF fnr he
adjourned until Saturday morning at II
o'clock. The strikers are Indifferent as to
whether they are enjoined, claiming, with
the one exception of Tuesday afternoons
riot, that they have done nothing out of the
way.
Last night citizens meeting was held at
Woods Run to protest against the COM
pany's action. IT was largely attended.
Tonight similar meeting will be held in
Franklin's school in Manchester. The
strikers say financially they are on firm
basis, as many of the men are well-to-do.
Assistance From Organized Labor.
To strengthen their treasury the different
labor organizations are contributing, and
by Saturday night it is expected that over
$1,000 will have been turned over to the
men. District Master Workman Dempsey
says not only the labor organizations, but
also the business men are among the con-
tributors.
Dispatcher Irwin said last night: ''To-
morrow we will be able to send out 20 cars,
or half our usual number. Men are con-
stantly coming to the Office in search of
work, and we will soon have all we need
The greater part OF the men are residents Of
the two cities. We are not using any
schedule yet, as we do not have enough
cars. The police will be kept on to-mor-
row."
The Pleasant Valley Company is reaping
a rich harvest out of the strike. 1t is carry
Ing about 80 per cent more passengers than
before. Six extra cars are now being run
on the California branch.
