BITTER STRIKE BEGINS
Fight for Recognition of Labor Union
Which President Everett Says Will
Be ccessful-Demands Are
Tyrannical-No Serious Trouble
Till Tomorrow.

Cleveland, June 11.-What promises
to be long and bitter contest between
the Cleveland Electric Railway COM
pany (the big consolidated company
and it's 900 employees was inaugurated
yesterday by a strike which tied up all
of the IA lines operated by the COM
pany. These lines reach all sections of
the city and form the only means of
transportation for more than 100000
people living in territory five miles
long and three miles wide at the south
end. The strike is mainly for the
recognition of the union. President
Henry A. Everett says that he is
willing to concede all other demands
and will adjust all other grievances
when presented by his employees, but
declares that he will never recognize
the union, whose demands he charac-
terizes as tyrannical. Only about half
a dozen cars were operated yesterday.
Those were on the Euclid avenue line
and were under the guard of deputy
sheriffs and were operated by imported
men, A few mail cars were run by
the strikers, who say they will not OBJ
struct the mails. There were several
riotouS demonstrations, but none of
really serious nature There is not
likely to be any serious trouble until
tomorrow, because there will be no
further attempt to move the cars until
then.

ON THE RAIL.

A pleasant bit of news that inter-
ested railroad circles during the past
week was the appointment Of James
T. Clark as second vice president of
the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Omaha railway at the annual meeting
of it's stockholders held at Hudson.
Mr.. Clark has been connected with the
Omaha road for number of years In
the freight and traffic departments ana
has been prominent among northwest
ern business men as it's general freight
agent and lately as its general traffic
manager. The new appointment in
vests Mr.. Clark with an added author
ity which will be Of immense value to
this road, and it's stockholders as well
as the travelling and shipping public
are to be congratulated in this happy
and wise choice. Mr.. Clark is broad
gagged, public spirited, progressive
railroad gentleman of the very best
type.

THIEVES FOILED.
They Throw Plumber Off a Train but
Dare not Follow 1t.

Thieves who tried to rob a freight
car on the Chicago G Northwestern
railroad between GAINESVILLE and
Evansville Tuesday night and of
which brief account appeared in The
Democrat, were foiled because the
train did not stop at Evansville as
they thought. 1t seems that some
thieves broke into car on the time
freight somewhere between GAINESVILLE
and Evansville. They took the con-
tents of a case of clothing, did it up in
bundles, and as the train approached
the double track at Evansville they
threw the bundles from the car
evidently expecting to get out them
selves when the train stopped at the
switch as most all trains do But for
this time-freight, it is arranged so
that the man at the Evansville pump
house throws the switch letting it onto
the double track without a halt in the
speed. And so it happened that the
thieves after pitching their booty out
of the car had to wait till the train ar
rived in the Madison yards before they
could get out of the car. In the mean
time the switch-tender at Evansville
had discovered and secured the
bundles Of clothing. When the yard
men at Madison found the car open
they discovered the loss of the prop
erty. The police between GAINESVILLE
and Madison have been notified and
are keeping a sharp lookout

EVERGREEN TREES.
When Properly Planted and Trimmed
They Add Much.

When not overdone the planting OF
evergreens on the lawn and around
the house can be made to add very ma
terially to the appearance The mis-
take is too often made, however, of
not allowing for growth, and in a few
years otter planting the YARD has a
crowded appearance that, to say the
least. detracts from appearances. By
little care in allowing room for growth
this may easily be avoided.
Evergreens, rather more than most
varieties of deciduous trees, gain much
from transplanting, for the reason that
they are usually of scant root and are
not inclined TO throw out small ferrous
roots, Transplants aid very mate
rally IN the growth and formation Of
flbrous roots, acting the same with
the roots as cutting back the top helps
to form a more dense head. On this
account evergreens may have to be
transplanted two or three times before
set in the place they are to Occupy per-
manently. By care in tranSplanting
the evergreen forms thick compact
root growth near the stem of the tree,
and when set to grow permanently
these help materially to secure and
maintain a thrifty growth Farmer

FRENCHCABINE OUT
DEPUTIES REFUSE TO VOTE AS
IT'S DEMANDS.
RESERVATIONS ACCEPTED
President Loubet 10 Consult With
Presidents Of the Chambers on For
nation Of a New Cabinet-Moder-
ates Want Meline Returned to Pow
er-Brisson Also Talked Of.

Paris, June 13.-The French cabinet
resigned yesterday and the resigna-
tions have been accepted by President
Loubet. The president requested the
ministers to remain in their offices I'M
til their successors are named. 1t is
presumed that N. Loubet will summon
the presidents Of the chambers today
ton of new cabinet.
The immediate cause Of the reslgna-
ton Of the cabinet was the refusal OF
the chamber of deputies to vote as the
government desired.
NJ Dupuy and his colleagues
held brief but cordial interview with
President Loubet. The president eX-
pressed thanks for the support that ne
has received from the retiring mem
bers, adding that he would always re-
member their services gratefully. Du-
puy was agreeably surprised at Lou
bets cordially.
The moderates hope to secure the
return of NJ. Meline to power The
reVoluntionaries hope for a more toll
Grant man than Dupuy. This is the OK
PLANTATION of yesterdays voting, result
ing in the downfall of the cabinet. The
supporters of the government only
numbered 173 recruited for the most
part from the ranks Of the mo0erate
radicals. Many deputies greed that
the Dreyfus affair is largely response
BILE for the present crisis. Allthe royal
lists and many radicals demand that
| their share of responsibility must be
brought home to Gen. De Boisdeffre
and Gen. MERCER. At the same time
those taking this view have been all
along persuaded that Dupuy would
never proceed to that extreme. Ger
tainly there is no denying the fact that
the question of the final settlement OF
Dreyfus hangs like dead weight On
the situation and will prove
a great obstacle in the settlement OF
the present crisis. Of the statesmen
already named in parliamentary circles
in connection with the premiership OF
the new cabinet, those most favorably
mentioned are NJ. Raymond Poincare
deputy for Mouse, who was minister OF
public instruction at the time of the
Dreyfus court-martial, and who testi-
fed before the court of cessation that
Dupuy had recently said to him: 81
think we were victims of a big hoax
in 1884," M. Theophile Declasse, min
lister of foreign affairs in the retiring
cabinet; M. Henry Brisson, who was
M. Dupuy's immediate predecessor in
the premiership he has just resigned
and Senator Pierre Waldeck-Rossear
who was minister of interior in the
cabinet of Gumbetta and again in the
Ferry cabinet.
