STRIKERS BADLY BEATEN
Philadelphia Traction COmpany's
Employees Suffered by Bad Advice.
Local Labor Leaders Say the Men
Made ii Mistake by Selecting
Wanamaktr as Arbitrator.

The labor leaders of this city are OF one
opinion as to the outc me Of the strike or
street car men in Philadelphia. Instead
of victory il is defeat, and 81 signal is it
that it viii take years OF hard work TO re-
gain the ground lost.
1t has, however, one redeemins feature.
1t showed that the labor element Of Phila-
delphia is organized for defense and will
not submit TO the oppression OF capital
without kicking, no matter what may be
the result.
President McHush of The Federation OF
Labor said that, while the strikers failed
TO gain anything, the strike no doubt had q
very good effect, inaSmuch as ii demon
strated 10 the Union TRACTION Company that
It's employees would not be driven Ike brutes.
He was satisfied that the damage TO the
property OF the company was not due TO
the malicious acts or tie strikers, but OF
their symPl thizeTs, but as In the case OF
the men IN the AnaCostia lockout, the en-
ploycs had to bear tie blame. The strike
will have one good errect-it Will cement
more firniiy the bonds which bind the EN-
pioyes together and show capital that or
ganized labor is still alive and kicking"
Mr.. :. \. Clements, secretary OF the
Plastercrs' Assembly, iHdorsed what had
been said by President McHugh, but was
of tie opinion that the labor men got de-
cideily the worst of the strike. This, he
thought, was because they Were ill-advised
and had acted without fully considering
all the circumstances OF tie situation.
Michael ). Bishop. worthy foreman OF
General Assembly Of X. OF L. OF America.
said ii was impossible for the strikers to
get anything out of the "adjustinent."
He<wa surprised to know that the labor
men would let Wanamaker. a known enemy
to organized labor. represent their side of
the arbitration. The Traction Company
went in to win and did. They defied or
ganized labor, municipal authority, and
public sentiment ana succeeded in defeatin,
them all.
NJ. II. B. Martin. OF the executive board
of the knights of Labor. said WannaInaker
was the very worst person the strikers could
have listened to in reference 10 the settle
ment OF their troubles. He is the chief OF
sweatshop bosses and is now boycottcd by
the knights of Labor.
Mr.. Sam De Hedrey, prominent knights
of Labor from Omaha, Neb., indorsed the
opinions OF Messrs. Bishop and Martin, but
believed the strike would have a good effect
The accepting of WannaIna kcr as arbitrator
amounted to giving up the fight. for 1t Is
well known that he Is. and alway Us has hcen
extremely partisan in his opposition to or
ganized labor.
An effort was made to see Mr.. W. H c.
Simmons, master workman d. A. Sc, but
but without success.
1t was learned, however. that he is of the
same opinion as Messrs. Bishop ard Martin.

Trouble on a Division of the Phil
adelphia Traction Combine.
NON -UNIONISTS PUMMELLED
RiOting Yesterday Was as Serious as
1t Was During the First Part of
the Strike-Strikers Threaten to
Cause Another Tie-Up If They Are
Not Given Their Regular Runs.

Philadelphia. Dec. 25.-The street car
| strike was renewed this morning on the
Girard avenue division OF the Union Trac-
| ton Company.
| The strikers of this division who with
all the other Union Traction men, returned
| TO work yesterday morning. pending prom
ised arbitration of their grievances. pro-
| tested this morning that the superintendent
of this division was discriminating against
them by giving employment TO the nom
union men and leaving those who had been
| on strike without assignment to work.
They declare that all the earlier cars In
starting on their trips this morning were
| manned by non-uniOn men.
The feeling among the ex-strikers grew
| to such an extent that they finallyy drove
| the non-union men out OF the depot and
| those who had started out with cars were
| driven back.
Some of the non union men were badly
| pummelled. A squad of police was quickly
hurried to the depot and order was restored,
| but at o O'Clock this morning not a car on
| this branch was ON the street. .,a-
| EVERYBODY GRUMBLING.
So far as learned there has been no
| trouble on any of the other divisions of
the company, but there is considerable
| grumbling among the old employees who
allege unfair treatment by the company s
t-officials.
The disturbances on Girard avenue to-
day were as serious as any that have
occurred during the time the strike was
| on. Every car manned by non-union
crew was wrecked by the mob and the ar
rival OF the police in one instance probably
saved the lives of the motornan and con-
ductor, who were being beaten severely
| by the crowd.
The withdrawal of the non-union men
from the cars temporarily put stop to the
trouble today. but there is much dissatis-
faction among the men over the settle
| ment of the strike, and it Is not such a re-
mote contingency that the strike may be
declared on again.
NINE ARRESTS MADE.
During the rioting the police made nine
arreIts. The Girard avenue division men
openly state that If they are not given their
regular runs tomorrow morning they will
tie up the whole system of the Union Trac-
ton Company again
The officials of the Amalgamated AS
sociaCon OF Street Railway Employees and
the more conservative members of the as
ISOLATION are opposed To renewal OF the
strike and are doing everything in their
power to persuade the dissatisfied men to
give tue company time to adjust their
grievances.
The employees OF the Girard avenue branch.
OF the Union Traction Company are holding
n meeting at this hour-l:15 a. m-and
the question of again going on strike
on that division will be put to q vote
later. .--,-

THAT SETTLED 1T.
The Traveller Being at Liberty WAS a
Proof That There Was No JAN.
Northwest Mav,lzir,e

A traveller whose face was somewhat re-
markable for its ugliness, recently found
himself in little Montana town not yet
touched by the enervating influence of the
decaying East. He was proceeding quietly
along the street when he was suddenly con-
fronted by two large and tough fellow-men,
apparently strangers i'll town, who were
comfortably intoxicated. The only decent
looking things about either were their weap-
ons. The more aggressive of the two gave
the traveller slap on the shoulder like the
slam of a barn door, and said: ''Stranger,
is there a Jail In this yere town where they
shut up criminals?"
Now, the traveller prides himself on his
ability to get along peaceahly with all sorts
and conditions of men, so he assumed an air
of familiarity, and began:
"Guess not. I've been here two days,
and"
"Then there amt any," broke in The man.
with decision. ''If you've teen here two
days and there was one you'd be in it,"

enemy to Lucretia for a long time, and
that last night he laid in wait for her.
He had seen her pass from the house in

hit her, ii is claimed, with a beer bottle,

Put on each side plain pound cake with

On one side put a nicely boiled and orna-

the SilNer question.
New York. May 22.-United States
Senator Thomas II. Carter Of Montana
is at the Imperial hotel He is here on
business, and will start for his hone
after having had talk with express
ident Harrison. Senator Carter. who
is chairman Of the republican national
committee. was found by a reporter at
the Imperial hotel. He was asked to
express his views on the national sit
uation, and more especially concerning
the silver question. Senator Carter
said: The republican prospect west
OF the Mississippi depends on how the
party meets the silver question. The
Western demand must be met in the
national platform. Fifty-nine elector-
ial votes depend on this. These votes
will not go TO any man not willing to
pledge himself to sign silver legislation
sent TO him by congress. and IL would
not be surprising IL the house elected
the president should the silver men put
a third ticket in the field. I believe
silver bills will be passed by both
houses next year. AS to candidates,
there is no pronounced sentiment AL
lison is the only man west OF the Mis-
sissippi named. 1 am unable to estt-
mate his following. John c. Spooner,
formerly senator from Wisconsin, has
many friends. The silver views of a
candidate, and not his personality,
will interest us. We shall insist on a
man making a declaration which viii
meet that sentiment"
