Men Give in on the DeKalb and Frank
lin Avenue Line.
BROOKLYN, n. Y, 1:15 a. H., Jan. IL
The strike was declared off on the De-
kalb and Franklin avenue trolley lines
this morning. These lines constitute
what is known as the Brooklyn City s.
Newton railroad company, Colonel John
NJ. Partridge, president.
The settlement was brought about
through the agency of Mayor Schieren
and State Arbitration Commissioner
Feeney. Col Partridge says that this
is practically back down on the part of
the men, as ne has conceded no peril
nent points.
The men, however. tell a different
story, claiming a victory, as the only
point on which they maintained any
kind of stand is the ten-hour working
day rule, which the company cancelled.
Six thousand men are still out and the
most powerful of the railroad corpora
tions remain obdurate. The state board
OF arbitration is making every effort to
terminate the strike in compromise,
and the men propose to submit to any
fair ruling which the companies pro-
pose.
The strikers generally are behaving

A Wealthy Man and an Honorable Con-
test.
Whether Major Hood is to be chosen
United States senator or not, he is max
ing straig htforward, honest, manly
campaign.
Men of integrity gain greater respec
and admiration for him as they become
more intimately acquainted with him
lie will come out of this canvass
stronger man than he went in. With his
well known wealth, no breath of suspi-
cion has touched him thai he is using
money illegitimately. Those who know
him well know that he is proof against
any such dishonor.
He will receive the nomination in a
manner that will make no friend of his
ashamed of his vote, or he will not re-
ceive it at all. That can be depended on.
Major Hoods reputation is greater to
him than any office and SO it should be
with every high minded pers on.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, Jan. 17.-There were
$40 men (all but fifty Of whom were EN-
ployes of the Carnegie steel plant at this
placel who answered the call for meet
ing at the opera house last night, to eX-
press their views on the matter Of organ
iZation of labor union; and to give vent
to their feelings concerning the discharge
of the 800 workers for attending last
Sundays meeting.
Though no plan of organization was
outlined, the sentiment il favor OF that
sentiment was very largely increased by
the speeches of Vice President Carney
of the AmaIgamated association, Hugh
Ross and others, and the arrangements
were made for another meeting on sun
day next which will be addressed by
President Garland, Hugh Ross and the
members of the old executive board
which managed the strike two years
ago
During the speech last night of one of
the discharged wOrAmen named Hanl-
land, some one asked if certain grocer
was in the office when Haniland received
his discharge Haniland answered yes,
and Immediately there was a mob of
men on their feet yelling: Lynch him"
"Lynch him." etc.
When it was learned that the man
whom the men claim is a spy was not in
the opera house, a number of men made
rush for the door to hunt him up. This
movement was finally stopped, and the
meeting quieted down again.
In all probability an organization will
be effected at next Sundays meeting.
Considerable interest is beng mani
tested as to whether or not the company
will pursue its avOwed intention and dis

A Cheeky INTERVIEWER.
The Enterprise Mans Freaks in
Virginia City.

For the last day or Two interviews
have appeared III the Virginia Enter
prise purporting TO be held with Mrs
| Craven of the Fair will fame. The
! lady who was interviewed by the En-
I ter rise man is now at the Arlington
House with her daughter and is very
much disguised at the lies told at her
expense in the interviews.
Yesterday an APPEAL reporter called
on her in company with Gen. Irish
who has known her for over twenty
years. In answer TO. inquiries the
lady said:
My name is Mrs. Baker. came to
this state on business and pleasure.
While at the Intern ational Hotel in
Virginia City, man called at my
room between 8 and 10 and insisted
him he was mistaken, and politely re-
quested him to leave and my dangh-
ter did also. He was very rude and
i'll bred, and ] concluded he had been
drinking, After ne was shown out he
called three times the same evening
and asked us all sorts of impairment
questions. l finally appealed TO the
landlord for protection, hnt was
merely told that he vas Mr.. Norris OF
the Enterprise, and that it was all
right I then sought rooms else
where"
General Irish then added:
II have known Mrs. Baker for over
twenty years. She is a lady of means
and came to this State on a pleasure
"trip with her daughter and to invest
money here. She heard of the hot
springs Of this State, and was anxious
to purchase such place and make u
health resort of it
She was negotiating for Lawton's
Springs near Reno, when | suggested
that she take trip TO the Comstock,
and she did so. Here she was
bounced on and written up by the En-
tcrprse, much to her disgust"
Have You concluded TO take the
Springs. MADAME
NO sir | have had enough of
Nevada. If ladies have no protection
from the intrusion l was subjected to
in Virginia City. do not care TO re-
main here. 1t may be unjust to the
State for me TO form such bad i'm
preston Of il, but the impression is SO
that / do not care to re-
N ain here.
[ am very much obliged to you for
offering To contradict the Enterprise
reports. 1 absolutely had no inter-
view with the man whatever
