ring fisheries was held today at the board
of trade rooms. The general situation
was considered at length, especially in

ment in the case Of the cargo of the

the vessel and Of the cargo in carrying
the case to the Supreme court. 1t is
hoped that the decision Of the appraisers

the meeting another was held by those
engaged in general fisheries. No definite
action was taken, but a telegram was
sent to Senator Lodge requesting him
not to take fun Their action until some

QUAKER CITY STRIKE.
The Street Railroad ID ifficuIty in Phiiadel-
phia is Very Serious,

Philadelphia, Pa, December 1.-THE
strike of employees of the Union Traction
company went into effect at O'Clock
this morning While the strike seriously
affects every line controlled by thu Union
Traction company, cars are being run
on some of the divisions at intervals of
half an hour or more. No violence has
thus far has been reported and the strik-
ers have evidently adopted pacific meth
DDS in their struggle for recognition. The
various depots of the Union Traction
company are guarded by SQUADS of police
men while the strikers congregate in the
vicinity and watch the efforts Of the
company officials to move the cars.
The only line in Philadelphia that is
not contolled by the Union Traction
company is the Hestorville, Mantau and
Paramount Passenger Railroad company
which operates electric cars on Arch,
Race and Vine streets The cars of this
company were crowded this morning, the
traffic being so great that summer cars
were pressed into service.
The basis upon which the order TO" the
tieup was issued Is constituted in the
following demands:
THAT ten consecutive hours shall
constitute days work for which So shall
be paid.
2.-That all considerations shall be in
stituted for the comfort of motormen
o.-That SweeperS, snow plows and
trippers shall be considered special work
for which extra compensation shall be
paid
4-That no employe shall be discharg
ed for belonging to any particular organ
izati on, and that all men dismissed for
their alleged utilization with the Amalga-
mated association shall be Immediately
reinstated.
These conditions were sent to President
Welsh, of the Union Traction company,
after he had declined to treat with the

A FIRM STAND.


Mr.. Clney gives in his note firm in
dorsement to the principle enunciated
by Monroe and defines Great Britain's
position in this frank manner:
"She (Great Brittany say to Venezu-
ella: You can get none of the debatable
land by force, because you are not strong
enough; you can get none by treaty,
because / will not agree. and you can
take your chances. of getting portion
by arbitration, only if you first agree
to abandon to me such other portion as l
may designate.
Continuing, Mr. Olney says it is not
perceived how such an attitude can be
defended nor how it is reconoilable with
that love OF Justice and fair play so emil
nently characteristic Of the English race,
and holds that if such position be adhered
to 1t should be regarded as amounting, in
| substance, to an invasion and CONQUEST OF
Venezuelan territory.
In conclusion, Mr.. Olney says that in
these circumstances the duty of the Presi
dent appears to him unmistakable and
imperative. To ignore Great Britain's
assertion Of title and her refusal to have
that title investigated, and not to pro-
test and give warning against the sub
stant1al appropriation by Great Britain
OF the territory for her own use would be
to Ignore an established policy with
which the honor ana welfare of this
country are closely 1dentlned. he there
fore instructed Mr.. Bayard to lay the
views given, before Lord Salisbury and
said: "They (the views) call for de-
finite decision upon the poipt whether
Great Britain will consent or VIII decline
to submit the Venezuelan boundary
question in its entirety to impartial ar
bitration.
Expressing the Presidents hope that
the conclusion will be on the sides of
arbitration. Mr. Olney concludes with
the pointed statement that ii the Presi-
dent lis uo.be disappointed in. that hope
howeyer-a result not to be anticipated,
and in his Judgment calculated to greatly
embarrass the, future relations between
this country and Great Britain-it Is his
wish to be made acquainted with the
fact atsuoh early date as will enable him
to lny the whole subject before Congress
in his next annual message"
