All sorts Of stories were in circulation
last night to the effect that the managers
OF the Manhattan elevated lines we're al
ready teaching trainmen to fill the places
Of motormen in preparation for a strike.
The watching motormen could discover
no new men being trained, nor could re-
porters.
J. 8. Doyle, master mechanic and cleo
lines, had a long conference yesterday after
noon with General Manager Bryan and
Supt. Hedley OF tho Interborough Rapid
Transit Company. The conference was
said to have reference to the programme
to be carried out should the elevated motor
men decide to strike.
William l.. Jencks, chairman Of the motor
mems grievance committee, said yesterday
that he had been in communication with
Grand Chief Warren s. Stone Of the Brother
hood OF Locomotive Engineers, the motor.
mems national organization. and both Chief
Stone and Chief Hanahan OF the Firemen
can be expected here to-day. A strike will!
not be declared, Jencks announced, until
the chiefs "have tried to avert it He
would not say yesterday that the men will
strike IN defiance Of the grand chiefs In case
the latter decide against a strike.
In reply to the announcement OF Supt
Hedley that the places of the motormen
II they strike, can be filled In half an hour
Jencks said:
-The men on the front end Of the train are
responsible for the safety Of the passengers.
We have a record Of twenty-five years
as motormen and engineers, which Is prob
ably unequalled in any city. The pas
seneers are as safe as they are on the street
safer, in fact. Does Mr.. Hedley think
that new men would be as efficient? We
have grown up with the increasing crowds
Of passengers and have kept pace with
the steadily increasing responsibility.
A large number Of the trainmen, whose
committee waited on Mr. Hedley on Tues
day. have been acting occasionally as sub
stitutes for the motormen. Il these men
should agree to take the strikers places,
there would be no need to call in inexperi-
enced hands.

cally Thanked by EliJah-Thc Prophet
Of Zion ID Having . Lucid Interval.

Elijah the Restorer. John Alexander
Oowie. took a good. firm grip on himself
las, night and tackled the task Of showing
Madison Square Garden audience that he
could control himself, and that he was not
a raving lunatic. And he succeeded.
He read the Scriptures for fourteen min
u,es without interjecting single remark
Of his own about "swill-fed New York par
sons" or common journalistic sewers v
He spoke for ten minutes on divine healing
and never for a single sentence strayed from
his text. Then he dismissed his audience.
How far this outbreak Of politeness and
ssuitv on the part Of the Prophet may have
been caused by the fact that he faced an
audience more charged with disorderly pos
sbiities than any he has yet met in New
York nobody could tell. His outbWsts Of
sclrr,llty and violence at his previous meet
ings and the spectacular debut Of Carrie
Nation in Zion on Tuesday night had
created a great curiosity about last nights
meeting. Among others, it attracted to
the Garden about 5UO ColumDla OMNorsaty
undergraduates.
these youngsters came early. One
solad took the arena seats on tho left Of
the the Prophets pulpit. Another squad
moved into the corresponding section
On the opposite side. Not few found
places on the floor at the back Of the Garden,
and still another crowd sought the upper
most gallery, directly over the Madison
avenue entrance. Here they sat in silence
until the Garden was filled to the very top
With it's quota Of 5000 people.
There ere not as many cranks and long
haired dsputatious persons in the Garden
as usual. The police, the Zion Guards
and the Zion secret service had stfted
them all out at the door. Az one Of them
put il:
aThe orders are that we shut out anybody
who walks sideways, tries to look both
ways at once, makes speeches to himself,
or has hair more than four inches long"
throng Of these rejected thinkers was
Ief, outside the doors Of the Garden, mutter-
ing in their wrath But the Columbia
Youths with their fresh, innocent faces,
we're admitted in troops, as ft material
for the exercise Of the Prophets evan
gelistic powers.
The doors had no sooner been closed
and the crowd quieted by march tune
from the Zion City band, than there came
rattling down from the roof upon the aston.
ished heads OF the audience this concerted
cheer from hundred throats:
