Troops Called to QueH Strike Riots

Forty local militiamen left Windsor Ont,
yesterday afternoon for London, Ont, in
esponse to call from the district Off
Ger for troops to aid in quelling the street
car riots there. 1t was believed that the
presence of the troops will hold rioters in
check without any actual fighting.
London was placed under martial law and
additional militiamen We're ordered in from
the adjacent towns as result of Satur-
days street car riots. Late Saturday night
the police became unable to cope with the
rioters, and the military was called out to
clear the streets The trouble commenced
when crowds drove the non-union crews of
several street cars from their posts and
stoned the cars. One car was fired after
the crew had left it and was almost de-
stroyed The police dispersed the after
noon rioters without aid. The company put
six cars on the Dunkirk street line in the
afternoon, but did not attempt to move
them to the barns till night When the at
tempt was made rioting broke out afresh.
The mob became so boisterous that the
riot act had to be read. which had not the
slightest effect, and Mayor Wilson called
out the militia. Several arrests were made.

TO LINK LAKE AND GULF
Ultimate Destiny of the Chicago Drainage
Canal Outlined.
Eminent Engineers Say the Millions
Already Expended Mark Only
Commencement of Work.

The Chicago Times-Herald yesterday
printed the following:
II have no doubt" says Chief Engineer
Randolph of the sanitary district. that
the ultimate end of the cruise of the sani-
tary district trustees over the Illinois river
will end in a demand upon Congress that
it may be made a navigable waterway;
that eventually it will be reconstructed to
carry the largest modern river vessels. and
that the drainage channel of Chicago it
self will be converted into a waterway
linking Lake Michigan with the Mississippi
and the Gulf of Mexico.
THE problems which the opening of the
drainage channel will develop will be such
that the people themselves will demand the
construction of this waterway and the res
toration of the Illinois and Desplaines (now
drainage channeD to their pristine glory of
frSt-class waterways
Trustees Conclusions.
The trustees of the drainage channel
have returned from their trip down the
Illinois river to st. Louis They are not
prepared to recommend the removal of the
government dams in the river. At least not
until the water is turned to channel and
it's effect noted, and they believe the law
will have to be complied with by removing
the state dams. They are more convinced
than ever that before the Illinois river will
fully care for the waters which the drain
age channel is to discharge into il, ii must
be so improved by the government that it
will in reality be once more a free stream.
$5O.0OO,OOO Needed.
Eminent authorities of the Society of
Western Engineers who have given the
progress of the drainage channel close
study say that the expenditure Of So, oO0.

of the channel-but marks the commence
ment of the expenditure of at least s5o,0o0.
600 more by the general government and
the state of Illinois toward making the
river and the channel complete water
way, one which will not create perpetual
damage claims suits against the sanitary
district and which will satisfactorily dis
pose of all the water and waste emanat-
ing from the city of Chicago and every
community upon the banks of the two
streams of water
Tests for Impurities.
Already the inland cities south of Chi
cago have begun making tests of the char
acter of the water in the Illinois river for
the purpose of making similar tests after
the drainage channel discharges into ii.
From the two tests they will determine
how impure, If at all, the river water is
made by the sewage discharge from Chi
cago. This is the sanitary side of the
question.
There is also the side of determining how
much overflow, if any, the channel will
cause in the river, what lands will be sub
merged, what damage will be caused, what
claims there may be against the sanitary
district. Issues such as these now that
the channel is almost completed have
brought the residents of the valley and
the sanitary districts trustees to a point
where mutual agreement and action would
make the difficulties vastly easier of solu-
ton.

A FIGHT TO A FINISH
Crisis Approaching in the New York Street
Railway Trouble.
Metropolitan Employees Make n state-
ment of Their Grievances and Ask
for Fair Confederation.

At the close of the conference of Metro
politan street railway men in New York
last night a statement was given out for
publication which was in part as follows:
In order to offset the efforts Of the men
petty officials and a few others circulated
lists on all the roads for signatures certi-
flying that the men were satisfied with
present conditions, and that no grievances
existed. Our people were warned on the
first intimatlon of the company's plan to
sign this or any other similar document
which might be presented to them, If to
an iron-cIad if necessary. as their failure
to sign would mean their discharge.
Thus it was that the company came
into the possession of a large list of names
of employees who said they were satisfied.
They Will endeaVor to appear satisfied until
the opportune time arrives for proper add
Justment of the grievances under which
they suffer.
Cause of Complaint.
The cause of complaint among the en-
ployes of the Metropolitan Street Railway
Company which prompted their action in
forming an organization was due to griev-
ances of long standing and against which
complaint had been made by them as in
dividuals without any attempt on the part
of the company to furnish relief. so that
their action in continuing the unfair cOndi-
tons has become part of the policy of the
management of the company
THE reception accorded the committee
from the men by Mr.. Vreeland this morn
ing in refusing to receive them as repre-
s2ntatives Of the employees, after he had
invited them by public notice to send
committees whenever they wished to see
him, caused no surprise among the men.
as they well know that when Mr.. Nreeland
speaks of receiving being willing to
receive committees from his men, he only
intends that to apply to committees
lected by the officials OF the board. who
can call upon him as that satisfied commit
tee did this morning. 1t was brought to
his office in special car of the company,
in the personal charge of Chief Inspector
Parker and Assistant Inspector Murphy,
for fear any of them would escape on the
way, whils. when the committee called
who had the authority voluntarily given
them without any coercion by their asso-
ciates to repreSeat them, Mr.. Vreeland did
not consider them worthy of a hearing.
The Grievances still Exist.
Notwithstanding the action of either Of
ment of them, the grievances still exist.
and so far as the officers of the company
being ready to adjust them. the men have
but little hope and will have to rely upon
the public, who are interested to the ex-
tent at least of knowing that fair consid-
Grafton be given to such an important mat
ter in which every citizen of our city is
inter ed"
Mr. Parsons said after the meeting that
while he could not say that strike would
be the outcome of the trouble, he regarded
the trouble as most serious and that ID was
to be fight to a finish

which reductions in rank and grade
may not be made in positions under civil
service rules unless the reasons for such
reductions are placed on file, just as rea-
sons for removal must be placed on file, is
being sought now in New York by
the National Civil Service Reform League
in the case of Robert j. Lusk, who was
reduced from superintendent of post Of
flee station No. 0. at s., 900, to clerkship, at
$1,000, by Postmaster Van Colt. The posi-
ton was placed on the classification list by
President Cleveland in 1894. 1t was sup
posed that the order of President Mckinley
on July q, 1897, providing against
moval with filed charges. really covered re-
moval from one position to another. The
question, according to civil service reform
ers. was placed beyond controversy when
President Mckinley issued his order on May

George McAneny. setEetary of the reform
association, received To his letter to Post

YELLOW. FEVER At SANTIAGO.
Gen. Wood Taking Active Measures to
StamD 1t Out


General Leonard Wood. the military gov

tiago de Cuba from the United States. and
Immediately began vigorous action to stamp
out the yellow fever. He finds the situation
more serious than he had anticipated.
Today headquarters will move to Songo
twenty miles north on the railroad, point
about 1000 feet above sea level as well as
all the administrative departments, except
the sanitary and few immune clerks in
the Quartermaster's and commissary STATS
The paymaster has been ordered to sus-
pend all payments to the Cuban troops until
the fever has been stamped out, the special
object of the order being to prevent the SOL
diers from drinking during the epidemic.
Many predict that there will be trouble
when the United States troops are entirely
removed from the city, as there are many
hundreds of destitute Cuban soldiers al
ready there. They are expecting payment
and have been, though for the best reasons,
put off for month.
