STRIKE MAY BE SETTLED.
Bishop Quigley Thinks the End Is
Near at Buffalo.

BUFFALO; May 17.-Bishop Quigley
took a decided stand in his endeavor to
bring the strike of the grain shovelers
and the sympathetic strikers to an end
today, and the outlook tonight is some
what brighter. Early In the evening the
bishop addressed u large meeting of strik-
ing freight handlers in East Buffalo. He
asked them to appoint committee, with
power to act, which will confer with the
lake line managers tomorrow, and assure
them that an agreement aholishing the
saloon payment system and the Sunday
signed in short order The strikers adopt
ed the bishops suggestion unanimously.
The bishop then drove to South Buffalo
and Informed the striking grain shovel
ers what the handlers had agreed to do.
The bulk of the strikers are undoubtedly
anxious to return to work, and Bishop
Quigley stated tonight that he was satis-
fed that they would follow his advice
antee that he felt warranted in giving
them
A new turn was given to the strike sit
uation tonight when the members of the
Marine Firemen's Benevolent association
voted unanimously to quit work tomor-
row at noon unless the strike is definite
ly settled by that time. There are 1000
members of the association in Buffalo
and over 900 in Cleveland. The Cleve-
land men, however, will not be called out
at present. The iremen have no griev-
ance of their own. They go out purely
out of sympathy with the scoopers, whose
stand they indorsed at tonight's session.

presented the appearance of ordinary
loafers, were arraigned In court today,
charged with the capital offense of high
treason. They were remanded for fort

in Natal to return them to the Rand and,
at given signal, to seize and hold the
fort of Johannesburg for twenty-four
hours, pending the arrival of British
troops.
