STRIKE DECLARED OFF
STREET-RAILwAY EMPLOYEES OF
THREE STATES AT WORK AGAIN.
Union Recognized and Restoration of
Discharged Employees Left to an
Arbitration Board.

HUNTINGTON, w. Va, Aug. 5.-The
Camden Interstate street railway strike,
which has been on since Sunday last, was
declared off to-day and all the cars on the
Ohio. Kentucky and West Virginia di-
visions are being operated tonight on
schedule time by union crews.
At conference here to-day between
President Graham, of the Camden Com
pany, and members Of the national execu-
tive board of street railway employees the
strike was satisfactorily adjusted, the COM
pany agreeing TO recognize the union and
restore all men discharged without cause
to their former places. The restoration of
men discharged for cause is TO be left for
arbitration, the Governor, one member of
the Supreme Court and another to be Sc
lected to be the arbitrators.
The settlement was reached during the
trial before Judge Lallace, of the Police
Court, of two nonunion men arrested for
carrying concealed weapons. Col. Z. T.
Vinson, of the Camden Company, was pres
ent to defend them. While the trial was
proceeding Colonel Vinson asked the Judge
if he would stop the trial for moment
and grant a private conversation between
the union officers and officials of the COM
pany, who were in the courtroom. The
judge consented, and after conference
lasting an hour the judge announced that
the trial would not proceed further and
ordered both prisoners released, stating
that both sides had reached a satisfactory
agreement and that the strike was declared
off. All the men on the various divisions
ratified the agreement later and traffic on
all the lines was resumed this evening
There was no violence of a serious nature
on any of the lines to-day.

PROFESSOR DISINTERRED.
Fall OF Water Mt AvondaIe Heights
Almost Proved His Undoing.

A metallic casket was not used in bury
ing" Prof. T. H. Siedenburg for his ten
days sleep under the ground at Avondale
Heights and the wooden one showed last
night that it would not shed water. The
heavy downporr of rain in the early morn
ing soaked the ground and loose dirt around
the grave, and when 1T stormed last night
the water ran into the coffin. II was lucky
for the professor that the rain came at a
time when there were willing workers who
could use the shovel and spade with celer-
ity. for had 1t been in the small hours of
the early morning his burying habit might
have come 10 a very realistic end. The
water poured into the casket last night
and after a few soundings were taken 1t
was deemed advisable to make a hurried
excavation and release the professor before
the water closed over his face and awak-
ened him rudely. Never did ghouls work
as fast as the men put to work to release
the professor from what might have been a
watery grave. They got him out before the
casket filed with water.

ing. and the more he tried to please his
wife the worse he made matters, and he
finally gave up and left her.

are a necessity. He is the judge as to
whether a carpet is worn enough to be re-
placed by a new one He also looks after
the sanitary condition of buildings.
