YESTERDAYS CONFERENCE.

The Issue Grouped Under Four Principal
Heads.
The conference between the Board of
Directors of the Wheeling Street Rail
way Company and the strikers, repre-
sented by their Executive Board, was
Chamber of Commerce. Both a fore
noon and afternoon meeting was held,
and the latter concluded at 4 o'clock.
At that time it was given out that all
efforts to get together had proven
fruitless and that negotiations were at
an end. After supper both sides be-
gan the preparation of statements to be
given to the press, in order that the
public might be fully enlightened as
to the merits of the propositions given
and received. These were about to be
given out when it was suddenly an
nounced that a further conference had
been arranged for. This was brought
about by outside parties who were
Oto W oNS XII ClOlI W 0Ollp VI OIluSC
abandoned without one more trial. Ac-
cordingly at 8 o'clock the Board of
Directors and the strikers committee
got together in apartments at the Car
roll club, and began anew the knotty
problem that had been cast aside as
incapable of solution at the close of
the afternoon session.
While both parties to the conference
have pledged themselves to the strict
est secrecy regsfding the proceedings,
it is understood he points at issue have
been summarized under four heads.
First, the settlement of controversies
which might hereafter arise from the
suspension or discharge of employees.
Second, the hours of service. Third.
wages, and fourth, the disposition of
the present employees. 1t is intimated
that all differences regarding the first
three propositions could be amicably
settled or left to a%rbitrators, but that
the sticking point arises in the fourth
and last clause-the disposition of the
men who are now running the cars.
When the fact that the conference
had adjourned without a settlement
became generally known about the city
last evening the expressions of disap-
pointment were many and sincere, but
when the second meeting was arranged
for citizens took new hope.
The meetings of the directors and
their former employees have been car
ried on in the friendliest manner, and
the arguments have been presented
with with the utmost courtesy, patience
and consideration. Even in case of
disagreement it is natural that a better
feeling will prevail from this on be-
tween the disputants.

The street railway conference - yes
terday, a continuation of Tuesdays
session, was not productive of definite
results. The gentlemen engaged in it,
representing the Company and the
strikers, adjourned about five o'clock
in the afternoon, having been unable to
reach a conclusion. The main point in
dispute was the question of the non
union men, as is more fully specified
below.
There was general disappointment
over the lack of results, as the gen
eral public chung to the last to the
hope that some basis of settlement
would be arrived at.
The matter at issue was not allowed
to drop, however, with the failure of
this conference. At an early hour in
the evening a number of business men
took the matter up and arranged an
other conference, which was convened
shortly after nine o'clock, at the Car
roll Club. There were present, in adj
dition to the representatives of the
Company and the strikers, Mayor Swee-
ney, Col. Thomas O'Brien, F. G.. Cald-
well and one of two others. The meet
ing was held in the strictest privacy,
and at it's conclusion it was mutually
agreed that no information should be
furnished the presA by any one pres
ent. 1t is known, however, that the
discussions were entirely friendly, and
were carried on with the best spirit
upon either side, and with an apparent
sincere desire on the part of all present
to reach some basis of compromise sat
isfactory to the conflicting interests in
volved. The conference will reassem-
BILE this afternoon at two O'Clock, and
the most that can be stated is that
the situation is not without hope, and
that if fairness and earnest effort can
bring about a settlement one will be
reached to-day.

A WONDERFUL COMMITTEE.
June %, 49,

oNhO ~ tO0t'
To the Editor Of the Register.
Sir:-What a fearful and wonderful
production is the Committee on Ordi-
nances of this City Council? In for
mer years that committee had the very
best material the Council afforded in
making up its membership. 1t is the
law committee of the city legislature.
1t passes upon more intricate and i'm
portant questions than any other COM
mittee, the Committee on Finance not
excepted. 1t is a committee CORES
ponding with the judiciary committee
in the higher legislative bodies. Its
duties demand, if not knowledge of
law, at least a wide business training.
1t may be safely said that the majority
of the present committee have neither.
The action of the majority of this COM
mittee upon the $40 a share telephone
company's ordinance, and their con-
temptuous treatment of the City Solici-
tors opinion, stamps them as wanting
in proper appreciation Of their duty.
They should recognize by this time
nov NAM of their fellow citizens re-
gard them. Their training and life
work has not been such as to properly
qualify them to adorn such a position.
They seem better equipped for many
other things. LOCKER ON.

BAD Butter.

Johnny Bartu must have regular
menagerie up on the hill. Last winter
he was dealing In parrots, and now he
is presenting full-grown nanny goats
to his friends. The other day the
writer's boys were seen coming down
the road towing lady goat. Al soon
as they were discovered all the other
town kids went out as reinforcenents,
and by the time the procession reached
the village It resembled q volunteer
flre company on parade. The goat has
an appetite like . returned North Da-
kota volunteer, and already she has
eaten the well, barrel OF old tin cans,
a pile Of bricks, three joints Of stove
pipe, and section Of the foundation
Of the family dwelling. But we'll play
even, as we intend to raise little goats
and sell 'em to stockmen who want a
goat to occupy the stable and make the
horses "healthy." Later-She is a
billy-goat. The speculative feature
Of the deal has been dropped, and the
animal will be kept simply as an orna.
ment.

A Reliable Firn.


Read Semling & Hoover's new ad in
another place in this issue. Mr.. Sem
ling was one of those who invested In
Emmons county land at an early day.
And he has always taken great inter-
est in the prosperity of this county.
Both he and his partner are known as
straightforward, square-dealing busi-
ness men. In some clothing stores,
when you go there to buy goods you
will at first be charged about two
prices, and, il you have time to dicker,
you can get the article for about two.
thirds or less Of what you have been
asked, and then you pay more than it
is worth, when quality is considered.
But the writer knows that this is not
true of Semling & Hoover. They put
their prices at the lowest living per
centage Of profit, and there is no dam
ger Of your having to pay more than
some one else who has more time to
schew the rag" than you have.
