Important Developments in tho Trouble

% 90 mept with tho Suburban.

p St. Louis, May 15:-There were i'm
portant developments in the street
81 car strike situation yesterday. At a
conference held between the officials
of the Suburban Railway company,
the only system in ST. Louis not con-
trolled by the St.oLouis Transit COM
opany and on which a strike was in
augurated ten days prior to that de-
clared on the Transit system, and the
officials of the employees on that
road, an amicable adjustment was eff
fected and the men will return to
work this morning. On just what
basis the strike was settled could not
be learned, but it can be positively
stated that the union received full
recognition. In many quarters it is
figured that the settlement of the
strike on the Suburban presages an
adjustment of the difficulties between
the Transit company and it's 5000
striking employees in the near future.
