Anthony Filman, of 73 Ohio street, said
he could not understand why he had been
refused. He held license for 20 years, but
was knocked out last year because he had
no restaurant He said he remedied that
deficit, but without avail.
Ed. Morris was the most talked of man in

The COMPANY GETTING EVEN.
TeamsteY Being Arrested for Blockading
Street Car Tracks.

Street Car Tracks.
The Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester
Traction Company has experienced much
delay of late in running its cars, owing to
teamsters getting on the tracks and not pay
ing any attention to the gong. The company
has determined to put a stop to this
nuisance and has employed Deputy Sheriff
Devlin to prosecute the teamsters.
The result of Mr.. Devlin's work ended
in his bringing two suits before Alderman
McKenna charging teamsters with violat-
ing a city ordinance in blockading the
company's tracks. A driver for Roberts
g. Cook, of 1903 Liberty avenue, it
Is charged, deliberately drove his
team on the switch of the company at the
Market street station and left it there while
he went away to attend to some business.
The cars could not get into the switch for
nearly five minutes and considerable con-
fusion resulted. Nobody dared remove the
vehicle for fear of prosecution and police
man requested to do so refused, al
leging be was not yet on duty for
the day. Mr.. Devlin brought suit
against the firm. He also brought suit
against ID. Rosenkranz, a dairyman of
Spring Garden borough. There was an odd
incident in this case. About 9 o'clock he
was driving along Ohio street in front of a
car and refused TO get out of the way,
when stopping suddenly his wagon was rnn
into, upset and the shafts broken. An hour
later he had them repaired and was again on
he same street blocking a car and refused
to get out of the way for several minutes.

AFTER YEARS OF REPosE.
Odd Things Found by workmen at tho
Central Hotel.

Odd Things Found by workmen at the
Central Hotel.
A curious lot of relics are displayed in
the Central Hotel cigar store window, found
by workmen engaged in reftting the hotel.
The history of each piece, if known, would
be interesting. Among the things were q
trade dollar, an old liberty dollar bearing
the date of 1899, two round lead balls sup
posed to have been used in slug shots, an
egg-shaped piece of lead used in handy
billies, three watches, two large coppers Of
1s47 and 1854, an English penny of 1862, a
Chinese coin, two copper coins of the army
and navy reunion, two watch chains, two
marbles, five knives, two revolvers and a
plain gold ring. The relics were found in
an old sewer and are all much eaten with
rust.
Patrick Rodney, the workman who found
most of the articles, was offered $11 for the
Liberty dollar by a coin collector, which he
promptly accepted.

'The flint glass trade is not what we
would like to see" Secretary Dillon, of the
National Flint Glass Workers Union, said
yesterday. "Within month, however, we
can notice q marked improvement in the
trade, and We are hopeful that Immediately
following the summer months the business
will be much better than it is now. Our
people are all content and happy now, and
our association is moving along without a
ripple. All we need is more and better
trade, which everybody is confident will
come after the six weeks shutdown this
summer.

tary Dillon, with some enthusiasm, Twill

A long conference was held in Mayor

the conferees. The object of the conference
was to suggest means of securing cheaper

ment recently made before board of view
ers that contractors were compelled to add
per cent to the cost of an improvement,
because they had to wait for year and some
times three years for their money after a
job was completed, was the principal sub
ject of discussion, but no remedy for the
difficulty was decided upon. The opinion
that lighter and cheaper pavements
on the residence streets would be judicious,
as expressed by the Senator was also talked
about Mr.. Liggett and Mr.. Woodward
talked for vitriied brick pavements, saving
they were better than any asphalt pavement
laid in this city in the past five years

who dare suggest that an interval Of
four more years will not relax energies?
The Iaboring classes demand a verdict.
Thew want to see their demands in safe

Why stand Gaping around the old

moral stamina?
