ments lasting more than eight hours, the
attorneys and representatives of the strik
ing transfers and transfer companies
reached an agreement tonight, and to-
morrow every transfer wagon in the city
will be running as usual. BY the terms of
the settlement the transfer companies

other concessions, which amount to almost
a complete victory for the strikers. With
one exception the wage scale was adopted
as presented by the teamsters. Drivers Of

$50 per day and drivers of single wagons

time was taken up with the consideration
of that question. The companies finally
yielded and the strike was settled. The
strikers wanted the companies to discharge
the men who did not join the strike, but
the companies positively refused to make
this concession, and it was agreed that the
men who were loyal to their employers are
TO be retained. but they must join the union
as soon as possible. No penalty will be
assessed against them for refusing TO

FOUL TACTICS in GAME
RICHMOND PLAYERS HELD AND
TRIPPED HOME PLAYERS.
Quakers Won I'm the Last Period-Hip-
son Not I'm Game-Action Regard
ing Munroe Transfers.

1t was a good game even il Indianapolis
did lose, and there was more excitement
crowded into the three periods Of play than
in any game seen at the Cyclorama in
many weeks. Richmond defeated Indianap-
oils last night by a score Of to 8. Indian
apolis had the game practically won in the
early part of the contest, but the Rich
mond players resorted to foul tactics by
persistent holding and tripping and won
out in the last period. Bone was the only
player on the Richmond team to play a fair
game. The other four resorted to tactics
that should have been penalized by a ref
cree, but Referee Moran gave one of his
characteristic demonstrations Of lacking
the necessary nerve to call fouls.
Captain Hipson was not in the game last
night, as he is threatened with a case of
pneumonia. Whipple was on the rush line
with Gavitt, and the. two played a good
game. Excitement ran high in the first Pc
riod, when Gavitt placed Indianapolis in
the lead by caging the first two goals of
the game. With the lead of two points it
looked as if Indianapolis would give the
Quakers a drubbing, but the home team
was not able to combat tie rough tactics
used by the Quakers in the latter part Of
the game, and the visitors won.
In the early part of the contest Berry
was made the target of many vicious
drives, but he got in front of them, pre-
venting Richmond from scoring. Way and
Coggshall helped form good defense, and
the work of Bone and Houghton was
broken up. In the third period Jessup
swung his stick in wild and intimidating
manner whenever the Indianapolis players
were near the Richmond cage, but Referee
Moran did not caution him.
Bone won the first rush, but Gavitt Sc
cured the ball. and on a pretty drive Gagged
the ball in fifteen seconds. Bone won the
second rush. and the play for the next five
minutes was very fast. Gavitt finally Sc
cured the ball and hooked it into the Rich
mond cage, giving indianapolis lead of
two points. Bone scored the third goal in
the first period.
Doherty scored the only goal in the sec
ond period. which tied the score. Gavitt
scored after eight minutes and half of
fast pls.y In the third period, and Bone tied
the score. The Richmond players played
desperately, and by holding prevented the
Indianapolis rushers from getting near the
Richmond cage. Bone scored the last goal,
which won the game. Summary:

called to take action on the transfer Of the
Lowell team to Muncie was not altogether
harmonious. Racine was the only club not
