Street Ger Employees Making a
Determined Fight.
THE SITUATION IS CRITICAL
Strikers Receiving Aid in the shape OF
Money and Observation-Disclosures
Men kIck.

philadelphia. Dec 22.-At a late hour
tonight the strike situation was appar-
emily unchanged, but the air was full
of all kinds of rumors. No attempt was
made to run cars, the authorities fear
ing violence from the strikers sympa-
thizers. who were idle today. Many
conferences were held on both sides,
hut no statements were given out.
The strikers had uniformed men in
all parts of the city soliciting subscrip-
tions from door to door, and it is said
the aggregate collections run into high
figures. What effort will be made to-
morrow in the way of running cars can
not be ascertained tonight, but an I'M
easy feeling exists for what may result
If any are made.
At the West Philadelphia station Of
the Market street line a small army Of
new men are confined. They were
brought here from Boston and other
New England cities to take the places
Of strikers. Soon after their arrival
one man became dissatisfied and left.
To the strikers he said that all the
men would leave but that they were
practically prisoners. They claim they
were led to believe they were wanted
to open a new trolley line here, and
upon learning the truth became dis
gusted and wanted to leave, but they
were not permitted. The Boston man
declared that he had to fight his way
through crowd of traction employees
to reach the door. The strikers say they
will take legal action to secure the mems
release.
The executive committee of strikers
was in session all afternoon. and to-
night sent a Subcommittee Of five en-
plOyes to confer with General Manager
Beetem. Attorney Stevenson instructed
them to use their best efforts to effect
a settlement tonight and If they failed
to try and make arrangements for ar
bitration tomorrow.
Prominent clergymen of the city dis
cussed the strike from the pulpit today
and while deplOring violence, were al
most unanimous in upholding the de-
mands of the men and condemning the
action of the company.
The strike leaders asserted tonight
that fully 1000 people had promised not
to ride on the cars of the company and
had contributed to the funds solicited
today. Between $1,000 and $4,000 has
been realized up to midnight and con-
tributions were still coming in.
The conference with General Manager
Beetem lasted four hours. Then the
committee of employees returned to
headquarters and went into session
with the executive committee Of the
Amalgamated Association and Presi-
dent Mahon.

Mr.. Thomas l.. Freeland, the

The Exchange Editor.


The following story about the
exchange editor is told by Moses p,
Handy:
A man whose proprietorship OF
a newspaper was acquired through
the foreclosure of a mortgage
began his career by looking around
the newspaper office to find out
where he could save a few dollars
in the running expenses. Said he
to the manager: "Do you know
that fellow in the little room up.
stairs-the fellow who works with
pair Of shears and a paste pot?'
"Why, yes, that is the exchange
editor" said the manager.
"Well, you want to keep your
eye on him. In fact, il you take
my advice you'll give him the
bounce next day."
"Why? He is one of the best
men on the force"
"Don't you believe 1t. / have
been watching him, and he does
nothing but sit there with his feet
cooked up and read newspapers.
Fire him He is soldering, and
you can bet on It,"
II was with difficulty the mana
ger made the proprietor under
stand that it was the business of
the exchange editor to read news
papers, and that the more he read
the better his work was likely to
be.

MIR. sENG,s SALARY.
An Appeal to Its Allowance Has
Been TQLSen

Been Taken.
James H. Burns and a number of his
friends, yesterday, filed with the coun-
ty attorney a petition that he take an
appeal from the action of the board of
county commissioners in allowing
County Assessor Robert Seng, $49O
salary for the month of August. AS
the statutes provide that on the filing
of such a petition by taxpayers the
county attorney must at once take an
appeal, County Attorney Butler at
once filed notice with the auditor that
he would appeal to the district court,
In accordance with the petition, and
later on he filed his appeal with the
clerk of the court. Then six of the men
who had signed the petition with
Burns sent to the county attorney
another petition. asking for the with
drawal of their names from the origi-
nal petition. giving as their reason
that they had been misinformed as to
the facts in the case. But they were
too late, as there was no way of rem
edying the mistake but to let it go to
the court
1t is claimed that Burns reason for
the action is that Seng has refused to
repay $50 loaned him by Burns, when
the latter was county auditor. Some
of those who signed the original pc
tition, and then requested the with
drawal of their names, claim that
Burns did not tell them the true facts
regarding the transaction, and the pc
tition was, signed for the purpose of
giving him a chance to get even with
Seng. The names of the petitioners
are as follows: James H. Burns, S.
Keesman, J. King. A. c. Blodgett, J.
M. Leiendecker. John Brandt, John
E. Dempsey, J. J. Ward, w. j. Mackey,
