HACKS VS. CARS.
A Determined Effort Being Made by Little Rock Strikers to Garry Their Point.

The Little Rock street car strike is still on and ''nothin' doing" with the exception of ten cars, which are being run by non.union men. The strikers put out six hacks for the purpose of carrying passengers in opposition to the street railway. The teams have banners with the inscription Union Transportation, Fare 5 cen4s.a The hacks follow the general route of the street car tracks and make slight lateral digressioos for the benefit of passengers. They are being literally patronized.
 No violence has been attempted against the cars or the non-union men employed, and there is a very decided movement on foot to bring about an arbitration of the differ ences.
 A monster street parade took place Thursday night headed by a brass band aud participated in by all the labor organizations of the city.
 IL the parade there were ten unions represented. Among the banners and trsnsparencies were the following.
 Carpenters Union, No. 539 vii walk ]"
