WHAT IS A STRIKE. =?
Judge Jenkins Gives a Definition
of the Word.
There Is Nothing to Prevent Men
From Ceasing Work If They
Wish to Do So.

MILWAUKEE,, March Judge Jenkins
listened to-day to the arguments on the
application of Chief Arthur, Chief Sar-
gent and the chiefs of other railway mems
unions for the modification Of the Jenkins
order fOrbdding Northern Pacific en-
ployes from striking. The courtroom was
crowded with labor people and their
friends. During the argument Attorney
Harper. for the men, had a hot set-to with
the court.
Judge Jenkins broke in on him at one
time and asked what he meant by the term
striking" Harper replied: 1T is simply
quitting work" "No. sir" said the Judge.
Then what is strike?" retorted Harper.
ut is qnitting work for the purpose of en-
forcing certain conditions" replied the
Judge.
Harper could not agree with the Judge
and did not seem to be very much awed by
the dignity of the court. which usually
keeps even the greatest attorneys very
careful and courteous. But l am not
done with you," shouted Harper, shaking
his fist at the Judge. 81 will show you a
special act of Congress which gives the
men the very rights which you have en-
joined them from exercising" Harper
then resumed his argument.
Attorney Quarles followed in an argu-
ment on the application of the Federal
law to the point at issue. Under the
natural construction of the language of
the order the restrictions are very broad
The order restraints men from striking
from any and all causes. present and
future, and it would not even let the
chiefs OF the railroad orders confer with
the men.
"Wll you please point out the clause
which prohibits them from so comforting
with the men?" asked Judge jenkins.
who exhibited an unusual amount of feeling
throughout the argument, and was fire.
Quently vehement in his remarks.
Quarles then gave his definition of a
strike and gave several references to sus-
tain the definition. The Judge said il was
not the intention to prevent men from
quitting-that was their legal right, and il
they wanted to they could stop work singy
or body in and 60 to Texas II they wished,
That's all we want" shouted man
from the rear of the courtroom.

Near aqua and the reigning Mosquito

although this Government has taken no
step beyond keeping itself informed
through the reports of Mr.. Braida. the
United States Consul at San Juan del

The point involved In the dispute is not

THE OUTLOOK FOR SILVER.
No Prospect for the ReassembIing of
the Monetary Conference.

WASHINGTON, March None of the
silver men in the House expressed any
surprise when informed of the dscourag-
ing remarks of the British Chancellor OF
the Exchequer on the outlook of the reas-
sem mbling of the monetary conference.
McCreary of Kentucky, a delegate from
the United States to the conference, said :
The outlook does not indicate an inter-
national monetary conference will be held
this year. There is, however, growing
feeling in Europe in favor Of the enlarged
use of silver. England has been In favor
OF gold monometalllsm for number of
years, but there are many able men who
favor interpati bimetallism. England
has blockaded the way more than any
other nation and prevented an interna-
tional agreement for many years, but |
believe there will be after awhile such a
demand for international bimetalllsm tha.
another conference must be held. But it
is probablysmpossible that it 'can assemble
until several leading countries of Europe
indicate the desire for a conference"
Newlands of Nevada said he had no ex-
pectation that England would move for
the reassembllng of the conference while
the Liberals remain in power. If the
Conservatives could secure control he
would consider the prospect brighter for
an International agreement, since Balfour
and other prominent men of that party are
favorable to silver. He is confident that
under this administration the initiative
will not be taken by the United States.
Senator Allison. another delegate to the
last conference, read the dispatch, with
the comment th he had known all the time
the United States would not propose an
other conference.
Bland said the action of England is i'm
material. He believed the United States
would stand on its own feet IL never
took any stock IN this international bust
ness" he added. 81 believe it's all hum
