pH1LApELPHIA's CAR STRIKE
The Hot Heads Among the Carmel
Have Lost Public sympathy

lave LOST Eupllc
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 3.-Many
conductors and motor men en-
ployed by the Union Traction
company, obeying orders to strike,
issued at the big mass meeting,
shortly before 2 o'clock this morn
ing declined to take out their cars,
and today, for a while, several
divisions were tied up, but an or.
der, issued by Acting Chairman
Thompson, OF the employees CON-
mittee, stating the strike was not
official and directing the men to
return to work and give the COM
mittee time to adjust the differ
ences with the company, had the
effect Of causing a partial resump-
ton OF traffic. Many men, how
ever, who obeyed the orders to
strike, found their places taken by
other men.
The determination to strike a
second time reached the climax OF
one of the most turbulent acenes
witnessed at labor meetings in this
city. After many hours OF excite
ment matters were brought to a
focus, the ayes on ordering a
strike being in the majority.
After a strike had been declared,
President Malone, of the Amalga-
| mated Association OF Street Rail
| way Employees, who strongly OPP
| posed the strike, at the urgent re-
| quest of cooler heads, made a brief
| address. He said he regretted the
| action OF the men in ordering a
strike under such exciting condl-
tions. Only one week ago, be said,
| they had the sympathy of the PEG.
pie, but the result OF this would
| have the effect OF losing it.
Mcclure, Of the American
Federation OF Labor, spoke in the
same strain. Public sympathy,
which was with the men during
the former strike, has undergone a
decided change.
All employees are now being
urged by their friends to remain at
work. Each street intersection on
Chestnut, Market, Broad and other
principal streets, is guarded by
three or four policemen and some
of the cars are similarly protected,
but this precaution seemed un'
necessary. Everything was quiet

AN ALUMINIUM JAwBoNn.
Pennsylvania Doctors Supply q Patient
With Metal Grinder.


A rare surgical operation, which is ex-
pected to attract great attention among
the medical profession of the country,
was performed recently at the Presbyte-
rian hospital, Allegheny, says the Pitts
burg Commercial Gazette, and witnessed
by a number of doctors of the two cities.
Aluminium, the latest discovery in metal,
was used as a substitute for bone. The
left Jaw of the patient was almost en-
tirely extracted and an artificial one
made of the material mentioned was APP
piled.
The operation was skillfu1ly conducted
and the patient will recover the full use
of his jaws. He is William Mcconnell of
ClaySville, which is a small town ten
miles east Of Washington, Pa. He is
about IS years of age and married. He
was taken to the hospital suffering from
what he supposed was an unusual attack
of toothache. The pain was in the left
jaw and to him seemed to extend from
the center of the chin A inches along the
left jaw bone An examination and con-
sultation by the staff Of physicians of the
Institution developed the Importance of
the case.
The result of their deliberations was
that the jaw had become affected by the
neglect of a decayed tooth since about
two years ago. 1t had eaten into the
flesh and bone of the left jaw, causing
eruptions of the flesh. A strange ac-
cumulatlOn OF HeSn appeared, WHICH was
gradually growing along the bone, form
ing an abscess in the meantime, known
technically as sarcoma. 1t was believed
that If the case was allowed to develop
that blood poisoning would set in and
that death would result within a very
short time. The operation was therefore
decided upon.
The surgeon first found 1t necessary to
open the flesh about 5 inches from the
chin along the side of the face in order
to prepare for the more delicate work
which was to follow. Then the saw was
applied and the same space of jawbone
on the left side from the center of the
chin was removed.
