PUSHING BUS LINE.
st. Louis Strikers Prepal ing to Com
pete With the Cars.

st. Louis. June 29.-The work OF es-
tablishing bus lines by the strikers to
compete with the st. Louis Transit
company in carrying passengers, IS
progressing. The committe that has the
matter in charge reports that $4,000 has
been raised for that purpose and that
% vehicles are now regularly running 1t
is the intention to divide the city into
districts and establish regular lines that
will give the public service to any por-
ton of the city. An appeal Will be made
to the public to assist In establishing
these lines.
There is considerable interest evinced
in the decision of the 800 employees or
the st. Louis Car company who have
been asked to ride on the cars OF the
Transit company. The request was
made by President Charles kobusch.
who explained that unless the men
agreed to ride on the Transit cars, the
chances were that the company would
be compelled to shut down the plant,
which secures it's power from the Tran
sit company. The matter Will be left to
a vote of the car builders and hn1Shers
unions, to which the men belong. Pres
ident Kobusch says:
1--WE have a contract with the Transit
company involving upward of 100000.
The request we made of our people
working here was made in view of the
fact that the Transit company was
customer of ours, for whom we do
great deal of work, and hope to do more
in the future and we thought that they
were in a position to deserve recogni-
ton at our hands, particularly as with
every dollars worth of business with
the Transit company, 40 per cent is dis
tributed among our employees I feel
that If the Transit company's money is
good enough for them to earn here, not
directly, but Indirectly, the Transit COM
pany' cars are good enough for them to
ride in, whether there be a boycott or
no boycott. The request was not COM
pulsory one, not even a request in fact
We simply asked them to ride in the
cars for if they had the interests of the
ST. Louis car company at heart, the
company thought it not only fair, but
just that they should patronize the
Transit company's cars, whose money
they are, at least Indirectly, earning
