There Has Been Little More Violence-A Conference Held-BiS Parade of Shoe Strikers In Haverhill, Mass, Calls Out Many Men-Uneasiness at Homestead.

BROOKLYN. Jan. 17.-It is generally be- lieved here that the strike of the trolley car motormen and conductors will be set- tied amicably today. From present indi- cations arbitration will be resorted to to effect this The members of the state board of mediation and arbitration were exceedingly busy throughout the day. h. terviewS with the presidents of the rail roads and the leaders of the strikers were had, and the result is that compromise measure is under consideration by both sides.
 The terms of the probable compromise have not yet been made public, but it is believed that 10th the companies and the strikers have made concessions. The strk ers have expressed their willingness to put tho matter cntiIcly in he hands of the arbitration hoard and stand upon the de- cision which may be render ed, provided that the companies will do the same.
 The officials of tho companies have not yet determined upon this curse. but will hold meeting today to deride upon tho matter InnumCrahlc conferences on the question of q settl,nc: wC,e held yester- day. but notwithstanding tlS efforts of the strike leaders to come to an agreement with the representatives of the trolley roads action by the latter was deferred until today.

NO EXTRA SESSION.

Governor Carr Thinks 1t Would be Bad
Policy to Have it Meet Again.
Many inquiries have been made dur
ing the past few days whether Govern
or Carr would call an extra session of
the Legislature for the purpose of un-
doingssome Of the wrongs it has heap
ed upon the State and her people.
The Constitution allows pay for not
over twenty days al extra sessions
The Governor is given power to call it
by and with the advice of the Council
of Safe, and is required to state the
specific purpose for which he thinks it
necessary the Legislature should meet,
but if the Councils decision is adverse
the Governor is powerless to have the
Legislature assemble.
The Legislature which has Just adj
journed absolutely ignored the Gov
ernor's recommendation and he has
no reason to think it would do any
better at special session.
The Governor was specially inter
viewed Thursday and said:
SIT is a matter for the Governor and
and his council. The latter cannot
act save upon call of the Governor
and there seems to be sentiment
among those who came in contact
with the last Legislature not to have
it assemble in the Capital City

THOSE COMMUNION CUPS.
A Writer in "Ram's Horn Fayors the
"IndiVIduaI"

Mr.. d. S. Thomas. writing from
Amanda, Ohio, "takes issue" with the
individual communion cup. Here is
his communication:
DEAR RAMS HORN:-Since you seem
so dead sot agin" the individual COM
munion cup, you ought at least to be
willing to help us TO have clean gen
eral one. To me, and doubtless to
many others, 1t is not bacteria or di-
sease alone that is dreaded, but the
detestable and reeking filth that goes
with some mouths; such for instance
as those that are heavily curtained
with moustache loaded with rem
nants of food and tobacco, which in
many cases are among the first to be
pOked into the communion cup and
withdrawn saturated as sponge with
the emblem OF the shed blood of our
Redeemer. The cup is then passed
Immediately to the pure lips of the
most refined lady, who requires strong
faith indeed, to believe that she is
partaking OF a sacred emblem; for are
not filth and pollution among the
strongest reminders Of sin?
How must minister feel under
such circumstances, who would not
think of offering the remnants of a
glass OF water thus tainted to a lady
for whom he had the least respect?
II we must use the same cup let
such objectionable communicates be
excluded altogether until they ''prove
by their works" that they believe that
Cleanliness is next to Godliness."
