was created here yesterday among the

A crowd cf several hundred syTnp
thizers and women collected about tho
companys offices
Some of the men we're taken TO the
house Of the company's special watch

went there and got access to them over
the fence CT an adjoining yard which be.
longed to the company. They were or
dered of by the watchman or representa-
tlves Of the company. but refused to go
and police officers were summoned. on
their arrival they refused to lnterfer,
further than to keep the sidewalks from
being INSTRUCTED. The men were orderly
and did as they were directed by the po-
liccmen. hut the women were disposed tc
be noisy and belhgerent, until the new
arrivals sent out word that Commute,
] OF their men would meet with the strlk
ers during the afternoon.
The strikers keep a close watch on al
the companys officials and know exaetl,

PREPARING TO SHIP FRUIT.
THERE Will BE AN ENORMOUS

THERE Will BE AN ENORMOUS
CROP OF BERRIES SOON.
Dover. May s-Fruit growers down the
state are beginning to advertise for
berry pickers to handle the enormous crop
which will be ready for plucling for
market next week The strawberry crop
is said to show the greatest abundance
notwlths the predictions that the
fruit had been destroyed by the Febru-
any blizzard. There is the greatest abund-
ance OF all the small fruits except
peaches and Japan plums The yield Of
domestic plrims. cherries, pears and all
kinds Of berries is so encouragingly large
that the growers have ceased to worry
about their orchards and vineyards, and
are turning their attention to the faeili-
ties that will be extended to them by the
railroad and express companies N get
ting their fruit to a market
A delegation from Wyoming, a live
shipping point, will call upon the Penn
syivania freight managers at Broad
Street Station. Philadelphia, this week
to secure better facilities. They will
claim that berries cannot be carried to
Hartford or Pittsburg divisions in freight
cars, the springs of which show a resist
ance of 10000 pounds. and which have
been constructed for carrying pig iron
The gross weight Of a carload OF straw
berries Is not more than $4,000 pounds,
and the effect on the fruit when carried
such a distance as those mon;loned Is the
same as though they had been carried
ITO market in a springiess farm Wagon
over stony road. Several Of the grow.
ers who have followed up their fruit Il
distais markets declare that they would
rot have Identified It had 1t not been foi
J ne private marks on the crates, so badly
/ jostled was the tender product Of th'
vineyards.
The committee will claim to the rail
road officials that twenty-five years ago
when an old-fashiQned car with a sprsng
resistance Of 10000 pounds, was assigned
to this trade. berries could have been car
ried to Chicago intact and as fresh foi
the Western market as they can now bl
carried to Philadelphia.
Prominent peach growers Of the viclni
ties OF Wyoming, FELTON, and Harrington
have been making astonishing statements
I AL lt-dAu ~ NiiH HttAAA NAVis - Nt--+
statements are to be given credence
there will be plenty OF peaches in th'
above-namcd section 1t appears thai
there Is a goodly scattering Of peache
in orchards as far south as harrington
South Of this point there are but few
peaches with the exception Of a few or
chards in this vicinity on heavy soil.
There is every reason to believe tina
the crop will be a good one in the Vi
entities Of Milford and Cedar Neck. You
correspondent has been in communication
with growers in those sections, and the.
assert that the trees have shed thei
blossoms and are pretty well filled wiu
peaches No definite estimate Of IN
yieid can be given, however, until tn
June drop" is over. Growers Of Nil
ford who have made statements for tn
press assert that the prospects are goo
for a crop in that section.

sion OF the Brotherhood Of Locomotive

p. NJ. Arthur, Assistant Grand Chief
Deloss Everett. Of the Brotherhood OF Lo-
connective Engineers. and Rev. Thomas
Dixon, Jr.
The address OF the venerable chief was
especially notable. He said that the Bro
therhood had in its history participated
in but three strikes; that these had been
only necessary because OF hot-headed
officials who wouldn't listen to proposals
to submit the difference to arbitration
that the day OF strikes was past and the
day CT hot-headed officials was also hap
PLY past.
He said that the relations between en-
ployer and employe were now so close
and each 50 thoroughly understood the
either that the cause for strikes no longer
exists.
Rev Thomas Dixon. OF New York who
spoke in advocacy Of a Broader Hu.
mainly" made a profound impression
upon his audience. The applause which
he received was extraordinary.
After the meeting the engineers wer,
escorted to the woods, slxirting the bag

roast had been prepared for them b,
Captain b. F. Kellogg. The New Yorl
Philadelphia and Norfolk railroad ran 4
