STRIKE DECLARED OFF.
Traction Troubles at Providence
Ended by Complete Collapse.

PROVIDENCE, r. L., July 5.-The strike
of motormen and conductors on the United
Traction Company's lines in Providence
was declared off tonight, after having been
In force since June 3. At the time the
Union of Street-railway Employees took
this action il was presumed that IL would
end the strike in Pawtucket, Central Falls
and throughout the Blackstone valley, but
later the strikers in those places refused to
end the strike, acting Independently of the
Union in Providence. Business Agent Vet
ter. of the union, after the Providence
meeting, said the strike was declared or
because there had been so many breaks in
the ranks of the strikers that it was neces-
sary to stop the strike to allow men now
out to get their old places. Mr.. Netter at
this time expected that the strike would
end on the entire system of the traction
company. Two hours later the strikers at
Pawtucket met and voted TO continue the
strike indefinitely.
The end of the strike in Providence was
forecasted this morning when a committee

traction company. AT the close the
committee returned to headquarters

said some of the strikers had told him that
they wished to return to work, and that he
told them he was willing TO take back the
old men pretty generally, only excepting
a few whom he did not consider it for the
company's interest 10 take back on any
condition.
Regarding the employees of the repair
shops, over 100 Of whom quit work when
the strike was declared, Mr.. Potter said he
could not take them back as he had thouSnt
they were never coming back again and
had filed their places. Later, when 1t was
know that the strike had been declared off.
Mr.. Potter was asked if the men hired dur
ing the strike would be kept. and he said
that some would be kept and others would
be allowed to go.
The strike, which thus appears to be
broken. has been one of the most remark
able in New England. Almost from the be-
ginning there nave been riots and much
d~ynamiting of cars, and for many days the
militia patrolled the streets of this city and
Pawtucket. Governor Kimball called out
during three weeks practically the entire
National Guard of the State.

"wHITE" PROBLEM IN ILLINOIS.
One that should Be Solved Promptly
by the Grand Jury.

Chicago Post.
There is evidently a white problem as we'll
as a negro problem in this country. This is
demonstrated by the disgraceful affair at
EldoradO, in this State, where a white mob
has damaged the buildings of the Normal
and Industrial Institute, destroyed the
crops and driven the teachers and students
from the neighborhood on the eve of the
schools commencement exercises.
The dispatches of yesterday were very
meager concerning this outrage, and to-
day little, if anything, is added to show
what caused the lawlessness. The school
was established through popular subscrip-
ton; it's object was to make the negro use
full TO himself and TO the community in
which he lives. So far as can be learned it
was attending strictly to this appointed
duty. The fact that no reason is given for
the violence of the ignorant white mob may
be considered ample proof that there was
none to give. Had there been any excuse
no matter how lame-for the violence IT
would have been paraded and heralded.
This thing could not have happened in the
South. There the work of such schools is
fully appreciated. The Tuskegee Institute
and similar schools have done an immense
~ good work for the colored race, and the
whites of the South believe in them and aid
them. 1t was left to citizens of the pro-
g~ressive State of Illinois, one of the most
advanced and enlightened in the Union, to
attack an industrial school,, to show that
they do not favor any effort to make the
negro a good and useful citizen,
1t is true that only one place in the State
has shown this disposition, and that only a
comparatively small mob was guilty of the
lawlessness; but the State must bear the
disgrace until it has taken adequate steps
TO punish the offenders and to assure the
school at Eldorado all the protection and
encouragement it needs or deserves.
This is a matter for the State authorities
to take up at once. Illinois cannot afford
to publish to the world that il has a white
problem involving more danger, more ig-
norance. more disrespect for law, less re-
gard of American Institutions, a greater
menace TO society. than the negro problem
now implies anywhere.

Mr.. Stewart has bounced Immediately, and
ordered an inspector 10 notify the proprle-
tor or manager Of the building in question
to see at once to his gas fittings.
Summer is not considered a favorable
season for such gas tests, owing TO the
fact that the temperature necessitates the
opening OF windows and doors, and build
inss are thereby much better ventilated
than In the colder seasons of the year.
For this reason II is the intention OF the
department of buildings TO continue the
gas tests and end the menace to health, If
not 10 life, that escaping Illuminating gas
presents.
Investigation by gas engineers has dem
onstrated that human life cannot be Ions
maintained in air in which there is one
tenth OF / per cent. of illuminating gas, II
no other air is breathed. and that I per
cent. of gas in the air makes a highly eX-
plosive admixture.
DR.. Lloyd was asked to-day what he had
learned from use of the easiest device,
and he said:
Il have used it in six or eight dwelling
houses, including my own. In my house
L got no trace of gas with the device. In
a residence in Forty-ninth street l found
one room in which the device registered
about four-tenths of l per cent. of carbon
monoxide. There were two patients in this
house, one of whom presented typhoidal
test was made in the house after the pa
tients had been removed, n five leaky
sewer traps were discovered. one in each
of the rooms my patients had occupied.
Another case is that Of a man whose
condition resisted treatment, and l ordered
him out of the city. A test near the chan
delier in his room disclosed a leak in the
gas pipe. In n disused house l found a 5
per cent. mixture of gas in a closet"
The activity of the department of build
ings and medical men In the matter of
gas leakage is due to a realization that
such leakage is a factor in fire risk and
general health and safety. From time TO
time manholes are blown in the air, and
these, engineers believe, are caused pri-
marily by gas leakage.

Baltimore American.

Baltimore American.
How many people know the words of the
national anthem, The Star-spangled Ban
ner?" This question was put at a conven-
ton of the General Society of the War of
1872 held last week in Boston. and resolu-
tons were drafted which. if they bear fruit.
will result in more Americans becoming
familiar with the stirring words. These
resolutions were proposed by Mr.. Thomas
Hill, one of the Baltimore delegates TO the
convention, and are as follows:
Whereas, The people of these United
States have for years made use of an
anthem known as The Star-spangled Ban
ner,' and,
Whereas, 1t is right and proper that the
hymn should be declared by the Congress
of these United States,
Resolved by the General Society of the
War of 1872, That the society will urge upon
Congress to declare The Star-spangled
Banner the national hymn.
Resolved, That the society urge upon the
authorities of the public schools of the
country the Importance of teaching the
words of this national hymn to the pupils
of said schools.
Resolved, That the several state socie-
ties attending this meeting will
such measures in their respective States
as will best bring about this result"
MY motive for suggesting these reso-
lutions, said Mr.. Hill yesterday, "arose
from a spectacle witnessed at a recent

During the last week or ten DAVIS the
Department of Buildings has made a series
of important tests for leakage of illumin-
ating gas in many OF the prominent the
alters, roof-gardens and hotels of the city.
with the result that in the majority of in
stances the presence of gas has been de-
tacted. In one or two instances the per-
centage OF gas resulted in an order that
the joints of supply pipes should be ex-
amined, and the leaks repaired without
delay.
DR.. Samuel Lloyd, of No. u West Fiftietb

hygiene of the County Medical Society, has
been making similar tests In dwelling
houses, where the condition of patients

The device used to ascertain the presence

Seven inspectors Of the Department of

this to acquire funds for a vacation, or to
buy a new Panama for themselves or a

times the market is perverse and goes the

that the refreshments should be a dinner

agreeable to the suggestion, and so they
adjourned to a brokers' office and viewed
the board to determine what stock should
furnish the funds for the dinner.

ELEVEN PERSONS KILLED.
Complete Report of Friday Nights
Collision Near GIoversviue.

GLOVERSVILLE, n. Y, July 5.-Revised
reports of the wreck on the Mountain Lake
Railway last night show that it caused the
almost instant death of ten persons. One
victim died in the hospital here early to-
day. II is believed hat several other vic
tins will succumb to their injuries. The
bodies OF many OF the victims were crushed
and manned almost beyond recognition and
the scenes about the wreck were horrify-
ing.
The accident was caused by a combina-
ton baggage car getting away from the
motorman and rushing down the mountain
side at terrific speed. The brakes refused
10 work and at the end of the grade the
heavy car crashed into d loaded open car
also descending the mountain. The latter
was hurled from the track and turned on
its side. and over % per cent. OF the passen-
gers were injured. Those who were pinned
directly under the car were crushed to
death and In some Instances terribly mutt
lated. The combination car also left the
track and turned on its side. As the scene
OF the accident Is remote from the city it
was two hours before appliances 10 raise
the open car and release the victims were
secured.
The accident happened at a sharp curve.
where the track turns TO make the climb
up the steep mountain side. 1t occurred
at the end OF a day Of pleasure at the re-
sort at the top of the mountain and the
cars were loaded with exCursionists. The
car on which the dead and injured persons
were riding was an open one. In charge Of
Motorman Arthur Perkins and Conductor
James Cameron. and the car which was re-
sponsible for the wreck was I'm charge Of
Motorman William Dodge. According TO
Conductor James Cameron, of the open
car. the closed car ran away while com
Ing down the grade above the curve and
collided with the open car as the latter
was rounding the curve. Both cars then
went down the grade a. lightning speed.
At the foot OF the hill the cars came to-
, gether again. Just before the rear car
nad reached the one ahead the lights in
the FIRST car went out and added daf kness

the other with such force that IL raised
