Strike partly voted OFF.

BROOKLYN, Feb. 16.-The Brooklyn troll
ley strike was partially voted off this morn
ing The strikers who were employed on
the Brooklyn Heights and the Queens Coun-
ty suburban railroads met at their local
assemblies this morning and declared the
strike off as far as they We're concerned.
This was done without the consent of Dis
trict Assembly 20. Some of the men who were
connected with these two roads will apply
for their positions at once.
At the session of the Assembly committee
to investigate the strike President Lewis,
of the Brooklyn Heights Railroad Company,
resumed his testimony. He said the agree
ment between the company and the men
regarding the ten-hour law made in 1889
had been satisfactory to the men until 1885,
There had never been any complaint dur
ing those eight years. Concerning the last
agreement with the men Mr.. Lewis said
it simply meant to turn the business over
into the hands of the Knights oe Labor.

THE BLACKLIST

From The Railway Times:
The blacklist penalty, inflicted
by set of plutocratic savages,
ought long since to hBve ceased
it's ravages. It is murder by
torture-death by degrees, slow
but certain. It is savagery re-
duced to a science. The black
listing of workingmen for daring
to strike against the devices of
corporations to rob and degrade
them, and reduce them to money
less homeless vagabondage will
be, must be stopped.
It is certain that some time in
the future this crime of crimes
will cease, and it is largely with
in the limits Of the probable, if it
does not cease, the patience of
it's victims will be exhausted.
The Indianapolis NEWS recites
that recently, in Indianapolis, "a
tall young man, travel worn and
dusty, went into the Union Sta
ton, climbed up the iron stairs
like one who knew his ground,
and knocked at the door of of the
superintendent of one of the big
gest railroads in the country.
When admitted he walked direct
to the superintendent desk, and
made speech which was some
thing like this:
Il used to be a brakeman on
one of your trains. You know
me. I lost my place in the
strike. 1 couldn't get work
here, so went to California and
found a job. I hadn't been to
work a week when I was dis
charged. I found out that my
name had been discovered on
thi strikers list. I went to
Dakota and then to New Eng
land, and your blacklist followed
me. Now, I'm desperate man.
[ am going to make one more
effort in the South, and I warn
you now that if you pursue me
any further IN meet you in this
room for a final interview. I
have been punished enough.
Let me alone. Hold off your ven-
geance, that is all I ask" The
man had thrust a threatening
finger into the superintendent
face as he talked. He strobe out
without waiting for an answer.

in a bold hand, and displayed On
