HOW A STRIKE WAS ENDED.
President of the Photographers Had

Difficulty i'm Notifying His Men.
CHICAGO, Nov. 14.-The Tribune says
Five minutes before the strike of the tele-
graph operators west of Albuquerque. on
the Santa Fe Railroad system, was called,
J. Nj. Barr. third vice-president of the
Santa Fe informed M. M. Dolphin, presi-
dent of the Order of Railroad Telegra-
piers, that the company would grant the
mems demands. President Dolphin hurried
to the train dispatchers' room, which was
next door, in the Great Northern build
ing. and started to send message to AL
buquerque, calling the strike off. when
the clock struck Il, and the instruments
became silent. President Dolphin worked
the key himself He called and called
but no amount of calling resulted in re-
establishing communication. Every oper-
ator on the line from Albuquerque. n. NJ,
to Los Angeles, Cal, a distance of SSS miles,
had evidently left his post of duty.
"Dolphin then hurried to the Western
Union Telegraph building and. after an
hour and a half. Dolphin succeeded in
reaching the representative of the Order of
Railway Photographers at Needles. Cal. To
him he sent the following message: Call
strike off. The railroad company has ac-
ceded to the demands of the men. Use your
utmost influence to get men back TO their
places and to re-establish traffic at all
points
but the man at the other end of the
line refused to accept the message. How
dc know you are Dolphin? he queried
President Dolphin sent back the secret
sign of the order, and then the answer
came, %. K. That practically ended the
strike.
president Dolphin was happy over the
outcome of the brief strike. He said: West
of Albuquerque is territory newly ac-
quired by the company, and the men in
that section have been working for small
wages, and were on call in some places
twenty-four hours a day We made up a
out of the twenty-four. The advance in
wages asked for and granted will amount
to nearly $4,000 year to the men, and the
eight-hour rest has been granted also.
After we formulated our demands we
could get no satisfaction in the West. At
length, a week ago, we came to headquar-
tiers here in Chicago, and entered into di-
rect negotiations with Mr.. Barr. In the
meantime the men out West became i'm
patient at our delay. and took the matter
into their own hands. In the morning
received a message from the West stating
that the men would go on strike of their
own accord at noon Tuesday, Chicago
time. / notified Mr.. Barr of the message
at IL o'clock He waited until within five
minutes of the appointed hour, and then
told me our demands would be granted.
II was then / tried to get a message
through to stop the strike, but the men
quit just as / was sending it."

Separate Conventions.


BIRMINGHAM Ala, Nov. 1.-THE Par
sons and Hayes factions of the Knights
of Labor are still holding their separate
and distinct conventions, without interfer-
ence with one another. The Hayes wing
ignores the Parsons faction, and the Par
sons wing appears content to take things
easy waiting on the ultimate decision TO
be reached in the courts, when the merits
of the controversy come up for hearing
The Hayes faction replies to the charge
that ii cannot be regular because with
out the official books and papers. by stat
ing that the books and papers of the or
der were shipped from Washington before
the court order, forbidding their removal,
etc, was issued, and that they cannot be
in contempt of court. They assume to be
holding a regular convention. While the
entire board and officers of the Parsons
faction are here. the Hayes faction have
the best of 1t in the number of delegates
present. The Parsons wing explains this
by stating that Hayes, being in possession
of the books, papers and money of the or
der. secured a large attendance by pro-
vidng mileage and expenses, while the
Parsons faction was Obliged to travel at
its own expense Both conventions are be-
hind closed doors, and none of to-day s
proceedings have been given out so far.

CHICAGO. Nov. 1.-THE National Civic
Federation has issued the following an
nouncement, calling a national conference
to consider the best means to secure con-
citation and arbitration in the settlement
of industrial disputes:
mo phase of our modern industrial de-
velopment is more interesting than the
Cancellation and arbitration applied during
recent years TO the adjustment of diff
culties and grievances that constantly
arise between labor and capital Strikes
and lockouts are perhaps a greater waste
of human energy and responsible for
greater loss of wealth to society as a whole
than any other obstructive factor connect
ed with modern industrialism. Public opin-
ion itself has been Indifferent and unin-
formed to the requirements of this new
age with its rapid and wonderful devel-
opment in every department of our indus
trial life. Recognizing the new claims
arising from modern Industrial conditions
the National Civic Federation will hold
national conference in Chicago On Dec Il

principles of Cancellation and arbitration

REWARD is TOO SLY.
Fox Hunters i'm Kentucky Have Sport
but Fail to Get a 'sBrush."

IRVINE, KY, Nov. 4.-This was the sec
ond day of the National Fox Hunters meet,
and, like yesterday, fortune smiled on the
band of one hundred men and women who
left here at o'clock this morning for the
hunt. Before the hounds had been cast ten
minutes fine red fox was started on the
farm of Judge Benton, a mile from town.
Sly Reynard set the puppies merry pace
down the Kentucky river and, after three
hours chase, hopelessly lost them at Slate
Ridge. six miles away. The race was
through a country almost impossible for
riders. and the crowd was separated. going
in two divisions, one, including the judges
and master of hounds, Col Roger Will
liams. making their way along the foot of
the mountains with great difficulty, and the
other going further up the mountain side
by road crossed by numerous ravines. 1t
was about o'clock before the sportsmen
got into the real fun, when, at point op-
posite Whitts Springs, where yesterday
struck. Here four foxes were chased inside
of twenty minutes, and IL was probably on
account of the confusion of jumping three
foxes that cost the loss of the scent so
early in the game. They struck back trail,
which crossed the right trail at Galloway s
creek, and. coming back toward the hunt
ers, the majority of the dogs were thrown
completely off. In this field there was the
most intense excitement, and several hunt
ers were thrown from their mounts, but
none hurt. At o'clock Master of Hounds
Williams called the hunt off. The judges,
w. n. Camray, Captain Hathaway, Judge
Wallace, j. T. Fades and John 7. Graves
met and decided that they did not see
enough of the running to warrant a de-
cision, and decided to make another trial
tomorrow.
There were twenty lady riders in to-day
chase, and only one was thrown from her
mount. Tonight the judges dropped from
the race all those that failed to keep In the
race to-day.
