would not plead guilty, and requested
an examination on the charge. The

LARGE VOTE FOR A TIE-UP,
Another Conference with Beetem Prov,
of No Ay.iI.

Another Conference with lBeetem Proves
of No Avail.
Returns on the result of the canvass
came to headquarters as the day waned,
indicating that IL large majority of the
men favored a strike, many Of the branch
lines being unanimous. President Mahon
used his best efforts throughout the day
to obviate another tie-up, and in this he
was aided by nearly all the other leaders
and a delegation of prominent citizens.
The majority, however, was almost n unit
on the determination to reject Manager
Beetem's last proposition. This grew
more marked last night when n commit.
tee of Representatives from the various di.
visions met to review the situation.
The men were admitted to the hall, but
were SO utterly at variance with the minor
ity conservative element that il became ne
ccssary to make them withdraw. The
employees frequently Interrupted the pro.
ccedings with boisterous demonstrations.
and declared that they would hold a mon-
ster mass meeting and declare the strike
on. 1t was apparent that many of them
had disrcgardcd Leader Mahon's iniunc-
tion TO keep out of the rum shops This
was regarded as most serious While
these events were in course n sub-commit.
tee Of ten was again in conference with
Manager Beetem.
Two hours were thus occupied. and the
trouble eventually resolved itself into one
question. that of future employees being
required to agree that they will join no
labor organization. The men wanted
this clause abolished, but Bectem declared
there was no possibility Of the company

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 3-The street rail-
way strike is on again. At 1:40 o'clock
this morning the motormen and conduc-
tors employed by the Union Traction
company decided not to go to work when
the first day cars started at clock. The
declaration was made at a mass meeting
of the men in Labor Lyceum. It came
amid the greatest confusion and against
the strong protest of the conservative ele-
ments. In fact the excitement was SO in.
tense that numerous small riots between
the two elements were averted with the
greatest difficulty. Pandemonium rcigned
at times, and many of the conservatives
left in disgust.
Peacenaker Greeted with Jeers.
An unsatisfactory conference with GEN
eral Manager Beetem had been held earlier
In the night, and trouble began when
this committee made its report to the
mass meeting. Previous to the commit.
tees arrival the turbulent scenes of tho
day had been increasing in intensity. The
question of strike or no strike" was
about to be put to the men when DR..
Griffiths, OF the Christian League, made j
speech urging .them to be patient, and
suggested further effort for peace. He
was greeted with jeers, and fuel was add.
ed to the flame when a man named
kirshner, Of the Cigarmakers union, made
fiery speech urging the men to strike.
MahOn Opposed to . Strike.
President Nahon, who has all along
been opposed to a strike, tiled to shut of
kirshncr and almost incurred personal
violence from the men, who wanted tu
hear kirshner. The confusion was Kept
up until Chairman Lutz put the question
to a vote. a decided affirmative was the
response. There were many negatives,
but the strikers were in the majority.
The meeting broke up in the greatest dis
order. Throughout it was manifest that
many of the men who went out in the
last strike will report for duty as usual
Tho temper OF the strikers is such that
should the conservatives do this trouble is
almost bound to result.
Dissatisfied Actively at Work.
From the adjournment of their meeting
at 3 O'Clock yesterday morning the dissat.
