THIRD LINE STARTS.
Chicago City Railway Con-
tinues to Make Gains.

Chicago, Nov 1S.-While negotiations
for peace between the city railway and
it's striking employees were pending in
the city hall through the OvertureS of
Mayor Harrison and the aldermanic
arbitration committee, a third line of
the company's strike bound cars was
put in operation today under police
protection. Five cars on the Indiana
avenue electric line were started I'M
der guard of patrOlmen drawn from
the Wentworth and Cottage Grove
lines, where trouble had apparently
subsidized almost to the point of disap-
pearance.
The Indiana avenue line connects with
the Wabash avenue cable line at Eign-
teenth and extends southwark to fifty
first street midway between the other
two main lines. Which have been put IN
operation A greater number OF trains
were put in commission on Cottage
Grove avenue than were operated yes
terday, while the service on Wentworth
avenue was restored to nearly its noI-
NAL status.
Mayor Harrison and his mediation
committee held another conference
with representatives of the company
and of the strikers today. Concerning
the possibility of a sympathetic strike
on other street car lines in Chicago,
President Mahon of the Amalgamated
Association of Street Railway EN-
DloyeS said:
Il will not recommend a general
strike, but should the proposition be
put for the men to vote upon there is
strong probability that they would
vote to strike. This is especially true
of the Union Traction men, who feel
justifiably indignant over the tactics
used by their company to aid the city
railway company in the present strike.
Union Traction superintendent and
foremen have been on guard at places
where their lines intersect the city
railway lines, and in three cases that
| know of have asked for the arrest of
Union Traction men whom they ac-
cused of delaying city railway cars
| Except for few stones on the tracks
there was no attempt to delay the In
diana avenue cars en- route to the bus
mess center. Neither the strikers nor
their sympathizers were present in any
great numbers and the street presented
almost its usual appearance. On the re-
turn, however, considerable delay was
caused by the short circuiting'' of the
line. rope had been thrown over the
/ trolley wire and a heavy copper wire
drawn up until the two met and di-
verted the current. The obstacle was
soon removed.
The Wentworth and Cottage Grove
avenue cars met with only trif1ing in
reference and carried a largely in
creased number of persons.
The cold weather had much to dc
with clearing the streets of Ioiterers
A binding northwest wind appeared to
have tempered the enthusiasm of the
sympathizers on foot while drivers of
wagons were little inclined to inter-
| fere.
Acting on rumors that some of the
| older men among the strikers were
negotiating individually with the com
pany to return to work, an extra fore,
of pickets occupied the neighborhood O.
the general offices today. Presiden
| Hamilton and General Manager McCul

RIGHTS OF RAILROADS.
They Will Be Considered by the
Commissioners.

The old question of whether a railroad
company can be compelled to give any
body who may want it a site for build
ing an elevator on the railroads right
of railroad commissioners. 1t came up
months ago in case at Marquette
against the Missouri Pacific and the
board made an order instructIng the
railroad company to furnish the eIeva-
tor site, but the Missouri Pacific refused
to comply with the order. and the board
never attempted to enforce it.
Judge s. H. Allen, representing the
Farmers Cooperative Shipping asso-
citation, has filed complaints with the
board against the Santa Fe for refusal
to furnish the association sites FOR eie-
vators at Abbeyville. Zenith and Spear
vile.
This case will involve the question of
what facilities railroad shall furnish
for the shipment of freight. The CO.
operators have branches at the three
towns named. They claim that at eacn
town the Santa Fe permits one gram
dealer to operate an elevator, but will
not furnish them an elevator site at any
of the three places or give them any
facilities for shipping
They either must sell their grain to
the elevators they are fighting or store
it around town and wait for cars. The
storage and rehandling piles up ex-
penses. They want the board either to
force the railroad to put in elevators or
to furnish them sites on which they can
build.
1t is argued that while the board of
railway commissioners may not have
authority to compel railroad company
to give part of its right of way for an
elevator, 1t has authority to compel (.
railroad to furnish suitable facilities for
handling freight, which would include
promptly furnished for the shipment OF
grain when offered.

THOSE POLLOCK CHARGES.
Copeland Bell Boys Have Made
Gambling Affidavits.

The resolution adopted by the kansas
congressional delegation in Washington
will bring to a focus the charges against
Justice Pollock. They will now either
be made public or entirely suppressed
If they are not now forthcoming they
will entirely lose their effect il they
should be sprung later. A Washington
dispatch on this subject says:
James A TrOutman has asked time
to consider the advisa bility Of present
ing his charges against Judge j. e. Fol
lock to the Kansas delegation Phil
Campbell, Charles F. Scott and Mr.. Mil
Ter were appointed special committee
to see him and inform him of the re-
quest of the delegation, as expressed in
the resolution adopted at this morning
meeting The committee spent several
hours in effort to find Mr.. Trourman
and finally located him at the Shoreham
hotel Only Mr.. Scott and Mr. camp
bell of the committee were present at
the time. Mr.. Troutman agreed to give
the committee an answer tomorrow
morning at o'clock.
1.-The only charges against Judge Pol
lock, which are said to be SUPPORTED
by affidavit, are those which accuse
him of gambling. These affidavits are
sworn to by bell boys of the Copeland
hotel, which is owned by Mr.. Gordon,
the fatherin-law of Mr.. Troutman.
Dispatches have poured in to members
Of the delegation from all parts of
Kansas protesting against the tactics
which have been adopted in the con-
test. The action of the delegation,
which practically amounts to a demand
on Mr. Troutman for his charges, has
placed that gentleman in most en-
barrassing position This plan WILL of
course, give Judge Pollock an oppor-
tunity to meet the charges before they
go to the president and the attorney
general
1T is not unlikely that criminal pros
ecutions may follow as a result of the
tactics which have been adopted. The
immediate result is to complicate the
situation. so far as the delegation is
concerned. Troutman probably will be
forced to present his charges to the
delegation and considerable time may
be required for Judge Pollock to pre-
sent his defense. Neither he nor his
friends are willing that the case should
rest where it now is.
Representative Curtis seems to be
master of the situa ton, so far as the
delegation is concerned. Should Curtis
go to Longs support, the contest in the
DELEGATION would be ended. There are
numerous ways in which this could be
brought about. An agreement on Cy
1eland's part to stop the fighting on
Curtis in the First district would be
one way of accomplishing the result
There have been agreements before re-
gardin~ Mr.. Curtis district which have
provoked bitter enmities and a second
effort might fail for this reason The
appointment of Curtis as a cornpro-
mise candidate would be another way
to settle the quarrel, but the fight on
Pollock has made this difficult to ac-
comDlish."
