HUNDREDS WANT WORK.
Rigid Anti-Union Promises De-
manded of Them.

VI hSlus
During the entire day yesterday a
large crowd of men stood in line at the
Office of the company in the Globe
building making application for work.
The men numbered several hundred,
nearly all of whom are said to be
strangers i'll the city. The work of en-
gaging the men was very slow from the
fact that they were taken into the inner
office separately and examined.
An attempt was made II interview
many of them. Martin Miller, who re-
sides at the corner of Annapolis street
and Smith avenue; his brother Hubert
Miller. and S. E. Messer, after putting
up their S25 each and being engaged,
were called back and their money re-
funded because they refused to promise
not to belong to any union. They were
former employees of the company, and
quit in good standing some time since.
George Sellrup, 202 University avenue,
and G. Gullender, 1O77 Bradley street.
were also notified that they would not
be accepted after being engaged and
their m oney put up. All of these men
and number of others whose names
were not TAKEN SAID Lney were rlgluIy
catechised as to having belonged to any
union or having any intention of
joining one. Other men said that
they would not give their names.
but they were engaged upon
promises that they would not belong to
the union. Some of them said they
were told by Supt. Hoskins that il would
not be we'll to Join any union. Others
said they were told that the only con-
dition on which they were engaged was
that they promise not to join any union.
One of the men at Labor hall last
night said that when he was at work
some days ago he turned in an envelope
to the collector containing So in cash
and S1.70 in transfers. He was after
wards notified that his envelope con-
tanning S4.70 was missing, and the
money was taken out of his pay.

ing regarding the charge that S150,000

positive that they have never trans

all funds in my hands now not to ex-
coed Sl15,0G0, with the auditor not being
able to issue warrants except for actual
running expenses, where am | going to
get the money to send to Montana that
the Herald charges me with? No, sir;

One of the new gripmen on the Selbyi
avenue cable line caused considerable
trouble yesterday afternoon and dam.
aged the car which he was operating by
his carelesSness. At the foot of Fourth
street the cars are switched by means
of a spur track, the grip car just
before reaching the spur being detached
from the cable and allowed to run by
gravity. The gripman, who was new
hand, forgot to release the cable when
he started across the spur track, and the
result was that the grip and car were
badly wrecked. The accident delayed
travel for several minutes, and last
night it was reported the carelessness
of the gripman caused the breaking of
one of the strands in the cable.
An interurban car was derailed at the
corner of Rice and University avenue
yesterday afternoon by the motoneer
endeavoring to pass the switch at that
point at too rapid speed.
