Street Car Men Refused an Increase.

Detroit, July 2S.-The request of the
employees of the Citizens Street Rail-
way company for an increase in wages
OF 4 cents an hour was late yesterday
refused by the company. The employees
held a meeting to decide what action
they will take on the refusal. When
the railway officials announced their
decision the mems representatives
asked them to meet their employees half
way, with an increase of cents an
hour, and this they also declined to do.
They would, they said, pay the men
the Accent increase for overtime
work, but would make no other con-
cession on the wage scale. Whether the
men will strike over the matter seems
very much in doubt.

nureiation of the Philippine policy Of
the administration, which gave arms
to the insurgents to help them free
themselves from the yoke of Spain and
then after buying them at $3.50 each
was shooting them down for daring to
assert their independence against the
republic Of the United States-the land

He said that any failure to strongly

a backward step that would be very
harmful to the Democratic party.

FARLEY OPPOSES AGITATION.
Mayor Says He Proposes to
Crush Ont Disorder There.

Cleveland, July 2S. - Mayor Farley
purposes to finish the campaign against
lawlessness in Cleveland on the lines
he has laid down. and he will not
tolerate any interference. That was
made clear at the special meeting of
the city council last evening, when the
attempt to institute an investigation of
the strike on the Big Consolidated
street railway lines by a special COM
mittee of that body was defeated. 1t
was the purpose of the special meet
ing to authorize semi-judicial inves-
tigation of the present strike by sub
poenaing witnesses and sending for
books and papers to ascertain whether
the agreement arrived at when the
first strike was settled had been lived
up to and to inform the public who
had violated the same.
Mayor Farley opposed the proposed
action in a vigorous speech, in which
he declared that the appointment of
the special committee would interfere
with the plans of the executive for the
crushing out of disorder. He said the
only result could be to keep alive the
agitation, and that no good purpose
would be served I'm time of peace"
he declared, prepare for war, but when
you have war the best thing to do is
to bring about peace. But that can
not be done by keeping up the agita
tion which caused the war. This seems
to be a good time for everybody to
mind his own business When the
resolution came to vote it was lost.
Many of the strike sympathizers have
been very bitter toward Mayor Farley.
In public meetings they have charged
him with responsibility for the present
troubles, and threats against his life
have been made This has led him to
provide a guard for his residence on
Euclid avenue and detectives watch
the house every night. There was no
violence of any importance yesterday
and the street cars were nearly all run
ming.
