STREET CAR STRIKE ENDED.
The Men Accept company's Offer and
 Return to Work.

Meridian, Miss, July 17.-(Special)-The street car situation in Meridian has taken sudden turn since yesterday and 8 com plete reconciliation has almost been reached.
 All of the cars except those on the East End line have been running today, and the East End line will be put in operation as soon as the tracks in front of the court house on Fifth street are repaired.
 The street car company was not in any great hurry to employ new men, and as a result six or eight old men returned to work this morning. accepting the condi- tions offered by the company, which means a raise of salary from 121a to 14 cents an hour after ninety days.
 It Is expected that nearly all the strik- CTS will be returned to their respective places and within the next two or three days the company hopes to have all the tracks repaired and cars on every line running on schedule time.
 The arrest of Quilla Moore yesterday afternoon for throwing a brick at new motorman was followed up with the ar rest of three of the strikers. They were Sid Warren, c. H. Thompkins and H. M. Bedford, charges of trespass and disor- derly conduct being entered against each of their names
 Ever since the strike was first ordered, 1t seems from a statement by the com pany's representatives, the accused had been intimidating men who were willing to run the cars by jumping on the cars and making threats.
 bofo <ha nnanaH this morning Mir J. A. Gibson, secretary of the company, had conference with Mayor Spinks, requesting him to hold the case of Moore as well as the rest of the men over him, pending further conduct. This the Mayor consented to do.
