Id WLESSNESjS IN THE STREET.

OF all the illadvised and inexcus-
able strikes into which laboring men
have been betrayed by their leaders,
the strike on the street car lines in
Brooklyn and New York is the most
reprehensible. There was no suffici
ent reason for agitating a strike. 1t
never had the support of any consid-
cradle number Of the men, nor. the
sympathy of the public. Under such
circumstances the Inauguration Of a
strike on the Brooklyn lines and the
sympathetic strike on one of the New
York lines were plumbers of such stu
pendous magnitude as to make them
unique. The Brooklyn strike has
failed to procure any concessions
from the corporation, failed to ser1-
ously interrupt the operation Of the
lines, and failed even to depress the
market price of the stock. If it be
true, as charged, that the strike was
the work of specializing politicians:
this last statement is significant. The
situation in Cleveland, where a re-
Gently settled strike has broken out
again, is much more serious. The
authorities there lack the moral sup
port which enabled the New York po-
lice force to act with such prompt
and decisive measures, and the incon
Venience to the public, as well as the
loss to the corporation and the work
ing men, is likely to be considerably
prolonged. In Mt. Vernon, n. Y, a
corporation has assembled hundreds
of men and is laying its tracks in vi
olation of its franchise, treating with
sneering contempt the efforts Of the
authorities to interfere, and appar-
emily relying on finally carrying its
point by the fat accompli. This des-
peration Of lawlessness is the result
of laws which were made for time
when municipal affairs were not as
complex as now, and when the pub
lie was not so vitally interested in
transportation. 1t is time the laws
were made broad enough to protect
the property of the stockholders, the
welfare of the employees, and the
rights of the public.-Zion's Herald.

The war with Spain abrogated all
treaties with the Z. S. and the treaty
of Peace, which ended the war, does
not deal with commercial matters.
Consequently, Z. S. trade with Spain
is now more Or less handicapped. For
instance, Consul Sprague at Gibralter,
has just called the attention OF the
Department of State to the existen ce
of. differential duty Of two pesetas-
a fraction more than thirty eight
cents-between Z. S. and British flour
entering Spain, in favor of the British
flour. The Consul added: ''The mat
ter is of some Importance, as at pre-
sent American flour can under sell
other foreign importations in this
line" When new commercial treaty
is negotiated with Spain, as one will
be in the near future, such draw backs
to trade will be done away with, as
President Mckinley will insist that
this country be given every CONNER
cial advantage possessed by the ''most
favored nation"

TO AMEND THE CITY CHARTER
ONE OF THE QUALIFICATIONS OF
VOTERS TO BE CHANGED.
1t Is Proposed to Require a Residence
of Six Months Instead of Thirty
Days in the City.


Elsewhere in THE News will be found
notice of bill that it is proposed to
have introduced at the approaching SEES.
sion of the legislature to amend the city
charter in regard to the qualification
of voters in municipal elections.
The object of the bill is to require a
residence of six months within the city
limits before party is entitled to vote.
Under the present charter residence of
only thirty days is required, and under
this rule it is said that too many people
come to the city and remain only
one month for the purpose of taking
part in elections.
The proposed amendment is advocat-
ed by many of the city's best citizens,
and if adopted will leave the selection of
officials only to bona fide residents.
1t is movement in the right direc-
ton, and will doubtless receive the sup~
port of nearly every one.

Two Colored Men Go Out For a Time and
As Usual are Landed Behind thN
Bars"

Joe Dolaldson is colore3 porter On a
Pullman car, which car is laying at the
Union depot on account OF the snow
blockade Bert Parsons, we'll known
colored man is porter at the Brunswick.
Last night these two individuals imbib-
ed too much whiskey and started to run
a small portion of the town.
Parsons piloted the other colored man
to the sitting room of the Brunswick,
where the two endeavored to entertain
themselves and create a nuisance for the
guests of the hotel, by playing the or.
gan and doing some dancing turns, not
artistic, but noisy on the sitting room
floor The created such a disturbance
that Joseph Cornetto, one OF the pro-
prietors of the hotel told them that they
were becoming obnoxious and invited
them to leave. They did leave, bat
shortly after Parsons returned and ap-
peared to be terribly offended because
he had been told that as an employe OF
the house he had been creating nuis
ance and disturbance. He told Mr.,
him in the face. He was elected from
the house and afterwards stood outside
of the hotel using epithets at once dis
graceful and against the peace OF the
community.
This morning at seven o'clock Parsons
came to the hotel, still in an intoxicated
condition and demanded his check for
services. Mr.. Cornetto told him that he
had better come round at ten o'clock
and Mr.. Gait would draw his check.
But he demurred to this arrangement and
demanded his check at once. Mr.. Cor
netto then went to the kitchen for Mr..
Gait and as he was emerging from the
dining room, Parsons in the meantime
having been reinforced by Donaldson,
struck Mr.. Gait knocking him down in
the sitting room Of the hotel. At once
Donaldson attacked Mr.. Cornetto and
there was lively scutfle for few min
utes, the stranger making play as il
to pull knife or revolver. After
quite little scuffle in which two or
three telling blows the colored men were
elected from the building and marshal
called who placed them under arrest.
They are now in Jail and awaiting ar
rest.
