REMEDIES SUGGESTED.

dem, Ala.) introduced bill Thursday

other bill ''To provide for a temporary
deficiency of revenue" It author
ICES the issue from time to time of per
cent. bonds to provide for the
redemption of United States treas

lures; also to issue per cent certifi-

STREET CAR MEN STRIKE.
Five Thousand Employees on Brooklyn
Trolley Lines Are Gut.


BROOKLYN, N. Y, Jan. 16.-At 5
o'clock Friday morning all the trolley
cars in Brooklyn were tied up, the
employees refusing to take out the cars
Over 5000 men quit work This
includes motor1nen, conductors, cleo
tricians, switchmen and others en-
ployed at the various power-houses.
All but one of the surface roads,
and that comparatively minor con-
Germ, are affected.
The mems grievances and demands
are thus stated: The state law pro-
vides that days work of street
railway employees shall be ten
hours, within twelve consecutive
hours. 1t is alleged that the corpora
lions have required the men to
work eleven hours, and even, latterly,
tweve hours, with no interval longer
than ten minutes for lunch, and even
depriving them of that brief time in
most instances. The wage rate agreed
upon year ago was two dollars for the
statutory days work; the companies, it
is alleged, have made no allowance for
overtime. The men demand adherence
to the law regulating hours in a days
work, or 1925 for a day of twelve
hours.
An address issued by the executive
committee of District Assembly No.
rs, alleges that the trouble was pre-
cipitated by the Brooklyn Heights
company in excluding their cleo
trio workers from work. The
statement goes or to say that the fla
grant violation of the ten-hour law has
mentally and physically incapacited
the men for their work. All the COM
panies run their trippers so that the
men can make only from forty to sixty
cents day.
BROOKLYN, Jan. 21.-The failure of
the state board of mediationand arbi-
tration to secure a settlement, and
the fact that the officials and employees
of the trolley roads have been unable
to come to an agreement after numer-
GUS attempts to reach satisfactory con-
illusions, have not helped to allay pub
lie apprehension of impending labor
troubles of the first magnitude. Mayor
Schieren's requisition for military adds
to the feeling.

A Tennesseean Takes His Rrother's Life
in SeIf-Defense.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Jan. Isl. N.
Williamson shot and killed his brother
William near Fayetteville Wednesday.
The brothers have been on bad terms
for some time and William Williamson
returned from Alabama a few days ago
with the avowed intention of killing his
brother. He called at the home of the
latter and induced him to come out of
the house. He attempted to draw a
pistol, but the weapon caught in his
pocket, and before he could draw his
revolver his brother sent bullet
through his heart, The perpetrator of
the deed gave himself up.

A WAITING CONDITION.
Hesitation Still Noted in the Business
Situation.

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S. weekly review of trace says:
There are some good signs but they do not
as yet extend to business generally, which
heSitateS much as it has for months. Gold
continues to go abroad, S6.55O,OOO having gone
this week, and the deficit of revenue is
already over S9,50O000 for the month. This
state OF facts. with the failure Of congress to
make provision for borrowing or for increas-
ing revenue, still operates to retard a whole
some recovery and the volume of domestic
trade represented by exchanges through
clearing houses is again about per
larger than last year, as it was In the
first week of the month, but is 1877
per cent smaller than two years ago. higher
rate of decrease than for some time past. The
industries are meeting q larger demand for
some products since the new year began, but
rather less for others, and no definite improve
ment appears in prices of manufactured prod
ucts or in wages. In the main. it is waiting
condition, with much hope that positive inn
provement is not far off, but not very satisfac-
tory evidence Of it as yet.
Prices of stocks have grown slightly
stronger for railroads, IS cents per share,
while the average for trusts is five cents higher.
reduction in freight rates has started a bet
ter movement of grain eaStbound, and the ton
mage OF live stock and dressed meats is also
larger than year ago, but the westbound
traffic has become unusually light.
Speculation has not been exceptionally &C
tive nor generally encouraging. Wheat has
sagged of one cent again, with western re-
ceipts only about half last years. Corn has
declined 1870. in spite of the very low gov
eminent estimate of yield, receipts being
now larger than of wheat Cotton has re-
manned steady at 81 cents with fairly large
movement, but efforts of southern planters to
contract the acreage this year receive some
attention. Petroleum has touched 81 again in
nominal price, but without activity.
There is somewhat more doing in the iron
and steel business, enough to cause a shade OF
lifting in prices for Bessemer iron and biIlets
at Philadelphia, where there is also improved
demand for finished products, but at Pitts
burgh, all changes reported are downward
Embarrassment in boots and shoes does
not lessen, and many manufacturers are get
ting near the end of their orders, while the dis
position to restrict orders at the advanced
prices demanded seem to be growing more
general Shipments are nevertheless larger
than in any previous year to date-163.91S
cases. against 14S 610 two years ago.
Exports from New York for two weeks OF
January have fallen but slightly behind last
years, while imports are about ST. 10000 larger
owing mainly to the increase in dry goods.

THE CASE REoPENED.
Judge Kicks Given Chance to Appear
Before the Committee.

WASHINGTON. Jan. '21.-The judiciary
committee of the house held long
session Friday over the Kicks case.
Representative Bailey, of Texas, pre-
scented the majority report, drawn by
himself, and Representative Frederick
the minority report. The friends of
Judge Kicks endeavored to reverse the
decision of the previous meeting.
Finally the committee decided by q
vote of to to reopen the case by ex-
tending an invitation to Judge
Kicks to appear before it, if he so de-
sired, with his witnesses, and to
give like invitation to the other side.
Representative Bailey's report was
discussed at length and several amend
ments offered and voted upon.
