THIS CAUSES FRESH TROUBLE.
II Statements Of some of the labor Meu Ara
to Be Trusted, Situation Is More Critical
Than at Any Time Sluee Outbreak.
Governor Crane and Arbitration
Board Believe Problem
is Solved.
(Ry Associated Prsss.l

BOSTON, MASS, March 1i.-The laooT
situation in Boston tonight is extremely
perplexinS. To give weight to statements
of labor men who spoke without authority
that harmony is not restored is to mako
The outlook far more critical than at any
time since the Allied Freight Transporta-
ton Council began it's fight against the
r. S. Brine Transportation Company. On
the other hand, Governor Crane and thG
State Board OF Arbitration believe that
the problem is being solved quite rapidlys
considering the immensity OF the strika
and only ask for time and patience from
both laborinS and business men TO remove
all obstacles for Il resumption of freight
traffic under customary conditions.
COMPLETELY BROKEN.
AS a matter of fact. the strike was
completely broken to-day. although indi-
vitltlal troubles cropped out in many quar-
ters, some of which were adjusted with
out delay aud others dragged along in
uncertain state, so that they came in for
consideration by the various labor bodies
to-nish,. During these meetings. judging
from what was argued by the men. inde-
pendent strikes of bodies seem impending
but the leaders in the Strike just ended
arc sanguine that they still hold control
would not again be obliged to order q
strike of the freight handlers or its more
serious accompaniment-a sympathetic
strike of affiliated bodies Tomorrow will
show more clearly the conditions in this
respect.
RUSH FOR PLACES.
The special side of the strike breaking
to-day presented army of workingmen
rushing helter skelter to get to their Old
positions There had been more than CO.
coo places vacated, but fully 10 per cent OF
the union men found their places filed.
This was the reason for friction all day.
Freight began TO move at docks, freight
sheds. from and to wholesale factories.
and upon the streets. and by night great
inroads had been made on the four days
accommodation of goods. With the break
ing of tho strike, employers of freight
handlers, team drivers or Jumpers, rushed
into print with calls for more help Even
concerns which heretofore have been
bound to unionism seem to have grasped
the opportunity of hiring whom they
liked. It is this point. OF all other,
that the critical phase of the situation
tonight hangs.

WHARTON LAW is
TO BE REPEALED
HunIey Bill Favorably Reported
After Insurance Men
Are Heard.

The General Laws Committee Of the
House yesterday afternoon unanimous
iy recommended the bill introduced by
AIR. Hunley, repeating the Wharton law.
it's object and professed purpose was TO
prevent cooperation and combination be-
tween fire insurance companies ana
agents Mr.. A. II. Christian, Jr., and
Colonel John 5. Purcell appeared before
the committee as citizens favorinG the
repeal of the Wharton law. 1t had in
creased the difficulty in getting insurance
and had made rates higher. The COM
m,nity was now suffering from lack OF
inspection because Of the Wharton Law.
Mr.. l.. r. Warren. of the Phoenix In
surance Company, said that General
Wharton. the patron OF the law. had tod
Major n. V. Randolph that he recoS-
nized that the bill vas a mistake. In
1895 the average rate i'll Virginia and
Georgia was the same. lii 1900, after two
years of the Wharton law, the average
rate in Virginia was s145 per 500. and
that in Georgia Sl.24. MI. Warren be-
lieved that the Jefferson would not have
burned rut for the Wharton law. 1t
would have been properly inspected ana
imperfections would have been remedied.
Under the conditions previous to the
Wharton law. The public was being edu-
Gated up TO securing low rates by inn
prOScnl6ntS anu CildilSSSe SuSSCStSh -
the Southeastern TaraS Association.
Mr.. f. L. TraSlor, a local insurance
man, stated that under the Wharton law
twelve companies had left Virginia, and
that a large number Of companies were
unwilling 10 reSnsure Ns1Ss taken by
agents III Virginia. It is now extremely
difficult TO place insurance. Mr.. TraElor
thought the repeal OF the Wharton law
would greatly benefit purchasers OF In
surance. The companies did not ask it.
They could take care Of themselves The
Wharton law had been put on the stat
ute books by the influence of a man
who saved s45 thereby, but the people
of Virginia had lost s1(S.o0a.
Mr.. Warren believed the Wharton law
the cause of the great fire waste in Vir-
| sinia. Mr., Robert Lecky. Jr.. Of the
Virginia State Insurance Company. and
Mr.. Charles 7. Lunsford. an insurance
man OF Roanoke, spoke along the same
line.
| No ono appeared TO defend the Whar-
ton law. The committee went into execli-
five session and unanimously decided to
report the bill repeating the Wharton
law.

Of tho statement, the evidence of works
was produced in the form of a circular
letter, one thousand copies Of which
were sent yesterday to physicians

to the defeat of the proposed amend
ment to the bill introduced to create a
board Of osteopaths, and requesting each
one receiving such letter to write at

This letter was one evidence of the fight
which is to be made. and the appoint

the adoption of the following resolutions,

SHAW GETS TIPS FROM GAGE.
Announces That No Changes in De-
partment Staff Are Contemplated.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL

IsEPt BIC SFECIAL-
Washington. Jan. Former Governor
Shaw of Iowa was at the Treasury Depart
ment this morning. learning the routine OF
the Secretary's office from Mr.. Gage. To
your correspondent and others he took
pains to say that the stories freely circu-
lated about impending changes in the de
partment staff were wholly without foun-
dation; that no changes We're at present
under consideration. and that II any were
made later. they would be made only upon
mature consideration.
This is interpreted to mean that Assistant
Secretaries Allies and Taylor will remain
at their posts. What will be done in re-
spect TO Mr.. Spaulding's transfer will
doubtless depend upon the condition of his
health and the opening of a berth suitable
for the utilization of his experience and
ability.
Governor Shaw said it had been decided
that he should take charge of the Treasury
Department on the 18th inst.
He announced that after taking office he
would not discuss the affairs of the de-
partment in the newspapers. Should he have
anything worth printing of interest to the
public he would do it in the shape of signed
He deprecated the use of GER
tain informal remarks made by him last
summer in Nebraska as containing his
present financial views. Many things might
occur in nine months to alter his clinion,
he said.
The Governor is exceedingly democratic
in his tastes. Last night he wore a plain
black diagonal suit. black tie. black soft
hat, standing collar and light overcoat.
His broad. square shoulders were particu-
larry distinctive. His right shoe is espe-
cfally broad. for the purpose. it is said, of
providing communications for his reported
sixth toe He walked from the Arlington
over to the White House and return.
He could not tell whether Mrs. Shaw
would come to Washington this winter or
not. Before the Cabinet position was Of
fered to him Mrs. Shaw had arranged to
take a trip through Old Mexico and Cali
fornia. which will occupy several months.
and he has not decided whether or not she
would still adhere to this programme and
she has not decided.
