Washington, May 0.-Ofiicials of
the war department claim that Judge
Lochren's decision relative to the con-
stitution and Porto Rico will not re-
qnire any change of policy on their

Ortiz. whose case brought forth the
judges opinion respecting the extcn-

Cars Manned by Non-Unionists Arc
Attacked by Angry Mobs.

Cars Manned by Non-Unionists Are
Attacked by Angry Mobs.
st. Louis, May 9.-In accordance
with the decision reached by the St.
Louis Transit Co.'S employees early
Tuesday morning, a general strike
was inaugurated on the entire sys-
tenn at daybreak. No cars were in
operation, save n few on the Park
avenue division. The first car on this
division left the sheds at o'clock.
The strikers at the sheds did not at
tempt to prevent the crews from TAX
ing the cars out. The crews were
allowed to run the cars unmolested
until 12:45 o'clock, when car No. Of
the Park avenue division was badly
wrecked on Washington avenue by n
volley OF stones thrown by crowd
of men and boys.
The Suburban hne, many of the
employees of which had been on q
strike for several days, was also tied
up after the early morning hours.
Cars were run as far east as Thir-
teenth street, but when efforts were
made TO bring them down town
crowds of strikers and sympathizerc
interfered with the crews and in sew
eral cases dragged them off the cars.
From time to time during the after
noon and night attempts were made
to operate the cars, but in nearly ev-
cry case resulted in attacks on the
crews by crowds along the streets,
practically stopping traffic.
At 1:15 o'clock a Park avenue car
was considerably damaged at Eigh-
teenth and Washington avenue. A
large crowd of men and BOYS was
congregated there, and as the car
was within distance they bombardedl
it with stones, regardless of the fact
that several women were inside.
The crew on the car stuck to their
posts, although the stones flew thick
around them. The company, when it
found that the cars could not be op-
Grated, sent them back to the sheds.
Numerous cars were stoned and the
men operating them attacked by
crowds along the streets. The strik-
ers declare that they have had no
active part in these hostile demon
strations.
Chairman Samuel Lee, of the ma
tional executive board, the man who
is conducting the strike, said that
the union was satisfied with the re-
suits of the strike.
''We struck to tie up the system"
said he, "and we have succeeded. The
company has precipitated this strike.
We are ready at any time to do our
part towards settling the differences
between us and the company"
Mr.. Lee said he did not know what
the strikers would do if the company
employs new men. The union claims
that about 3,400 men are out and
that they represent about 90 per cent.
of the Transit Co.'s employees.
Last night as n car was crossing
Taylor avenue big crowd gathered
Some one in it pulled the trolley
from the wire and this action so en-
ragged a passenger, at present I'M
known, that he drew revolver and
fired three shots into the crowd,
Hurley Gilbert, an onlooker, received
one of the bullets in the arm and an.
other in the lung. He was taken to a
hospital, where his wounds were pro.
nounced mortal.

excellent one for the introduction OF

the Mainland can boast Of better one
than that now being installed In this
city. Although the switch board and
connections are all completed, II must
not be considered that everything Is
ready for business, as every instru-
ment now in use will have to be re-
placed by new one, and the lines re-
ADJUSTED. The installation of the new
system will be completed within fort
night, II possible, and active work
thereon will be commenced within the

NOW 1T IS NO. 2.
Boiler Accident During the Fire
Yesterday.
(From Thursdays Daily.)

lfTOHl nuISudy Ddlly.)
The fire department is in hard luck
with its engines. Following the serious
accident to No. l at the Chinatown
fire, the firemen were yesterday de-
prived of the services of another en-
CINE for few days at least. No. 2
while running at top speed at about
noon yesterday suddenly blew up, and
had to retire from the scene, The
damage is not at all serious, as all that
can be seen of the injury Is a hole in
the boiler through which man might
thrust his closed hand, and patch viii
place the machine in good condition
again.
No. is one of the oldest engines
in the city, and although the actual
number of days in which it has been
under steam, is not abnormal, it is
inferred that the water with which il
had been kept filled for the best part
of the twelve years of its existence,
had so corroded and weakened the iron
that the boiler was unable to meet the
heavy demands made upon 1t recently
1t is most fortunate that no one was
injured by the accident, the fireman
happily being in the act OF opening the
fire door at the time, and the engineer
at his post out of the way.
The damaged engine was immediate
ly removed to the Honolulu Iron Works
and gang of men detailed to repair
the damage. During the absence OF
NO. from the central station, No
mas been placed on duty there.
