STRIKE OF STREET CAR MEN.--A
general strike of the 5000 employees Of
the Chicsgo City Railway was decided
upon last night at mass meeting of the
men. They were toquitwork at o'clock
this morning. This decision was reach
ed after controversy that has lasted
for over two weeks between the repre-
sentatives of the union and the manage
ment of the railway. The demands Of
the union were for wage increase of %
per cent, recognition of the union and
several other minor concessions. The
company requested postponement of
hostilities until Saturday, when a final
answer would be given, but the men re-
fused to delay action any longer and de-
cided to quit work to enforce their de-
mands. The company, it is said, has
several hundred men in readiness totake
the places of the strikers and will endeay-
or to run the cars with nonunion men.
The Chicago City Railway controls all
the surface lines running on the south
side of the city, making Il total of over
200 miles of track.

The Emneror,s Condition.

Berlin, Nov. 12.-Another bulletin
regarding the condition of Emperor Will
liam, was issued by his physicians from
the palace at Potsdam this morning. The
bulletin isas follows: ellis majesty gave
up his usual walk yesterday owing to the
sharp wind. The healing of the wound
is taking the regular course. The En-
peror's general condition remains good. T"
Although the bulletins issued would
seem to indicate that the throat affection
of the royal patient is nothing to cause
great fear, the apprehension on the part
of the German court and people that his
majesty is suffering from the first stages
of cancer will not down. Security can
not be obtained for four or five weeks,
in which time. if there are any cancer
GUS tendencies, they are bound to develop.
Reports are currentin semi-official circles
today to the effect that the fear of cancer
is also felt by the royal family.

Refrayad by an Explosion.

Philadelphia Nov. ia dynamite
explosion this morning nearly caused the
death of several people and resulted in
about s4OO damage to the premises at
1876 Wood street, and the adjoining
house. The police arrested six men,
each of whom was held in 81, 500 bail
on suspicion. The theory is that the
room where the explosion occurred was
the rendezvous of safe robbers. The po-
lice think the men were experimenting
with dynamite such as is used in blow
ing open safe doors and that the ensuing
explosion was premature and accidental.
Skeleton keys, dynamite fuses, and bur-
glars tools were found in the room. The
prisoners claim that an exploding lamp
caused the havoc, but the police say this
is manifestly untrue.

The UNsEEMLY conduct of about five
thousand women before, during and
fter the wedding Of Miss May Goelet
nd the Duke of Roxburghe at St.
Il. Thomas's Church in New York on
tuesday is a commentary On democratic
Institutions. The descriptions given in
he New York papers are disgusting, to
ay the least. These unbidden guests
ulgar curiosity seekers were well
ressed. They jammed the streets adj
lining the church and the Goelet man
ION, which are four blocks apart. These
omen were not content merely to watch
ne bridal party. They literally mobbed
he bride and the church. They climbed
p on the steps Of the brides carriage
nd poked their heads through the win
ows, some of them even attempting t.
all flowers from the brides dress and
ell. They climbed up on the church
= using tie heavy Virginia creepers as
ladder, and made themselves obnoxious
,nerally. The police were invoked to
,e defense of the bride and groom, but
icy found themselves helpless, as the
invited guests seemed to have become
mporarily deranged.

Cbicago Car Lines Tied Up.


Chicago, Nov. 12.-At four o'clock
this morning the operation of the cars
over the twenty-one lines of the Chicago
CITY Railway Company's system ceased
and the greatest street car strike in the
history Of the city began. Any effort to
run cars is expected to result in trouble,
though orders have been issued by the
officers of the street car men to their
followers to retain from violence. The
demand for the "cIosed shop" was the
only one which stood in the way OF
settlement, as the company was ready 10
refer all questions, other than that, to
arbitration, but insisted that il should
be allowed to manage its own business,
and employ non-union men if it desired
TO do so. Bicycles, express wagons
and other vehicles were brought into
requisition and many persons relied
upon their legs to carry them to work.
Over 5000 men are out. Shortly be-
fore s O'Clock the barn doors were
thrown open and six trains, one mail

made to stop them but when they passed
out of sight of the police they were
GREETED with hail of stones and other
missiles. Three of the trains managed
to weather the storm but the crews OF
the remaining three abandoned their
cars and fled to the barns, bleeding from
numerous wounds. The mail train was
not molested but it could not be moved
as it was sandwiched between two other
trains. The first cars to reach up town
were number of heavy single coaches.
When they reached Clark and Van
Buren, streets number of heavy wagons
blocked their further progress, and in a
minute they were bombarded with stones
from all sides. Windows were smashed
and holes knocked in the sides of the
coaches. A squad of police soon dis
persed the mob and the cars were per-
mitted to proceed.
The mob attacked cable train on
Cottage Grove avenue and pulled the
gripman aud conductor off the cars and
severely beat them. The mob tipped
over the coaches, running the apparatus
on the grip car.

Russo AMERICAN CHURCH p The.
st. Petersburg official ecclesiastical
Gazette in its current issue prints long
article on the visit of Bishop Grafton,
Episcopal bishop of Wisconsin, to Rus
sia The paper says the visit is a signif-
icant manifestation of the wish Of the
American Episcopacy to ally itself to the
Russian orthodox hierarchy, and notes
that Bishop Grafton came. not as
tourist, but as an envoy of the great
church in America. The Gazette also
prints letter from the Russian Bishop
Sergius on the same subject in which
the Bishop says he hopes the visit "by
the Grace Of God, will lead to rap
prochement or even church uniication."
In his letter the Bishop refers to similari-
ties in the doctrines of the churches,
and also points out the general need Of
a better Russo-American understanding.

The Best Remedy FOR Croup.

[From the Atchison, Kan, Daily Glote.l
This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for Group
is in demand in every neighborhood.
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle of
the night by whoop from one of the
children. The Group remedies are al
most as sure to be lost in case of Group
as revolver is to be lost in case Of burg
lars. There used to be an oIdfashioned
remedy for Group, known as hive syrup
and tolu, but some modern mothers say
that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
better, and does not cost so much. 1t
causes the patient to throw up the
phlegm" quicker, and gives relief in a
shorter time. Give this remedy as soon
as the croupy cough appears and it will
prevent the attack. 1t never fails and
is pleasant and safe to take. For sale
by Richard Gibson.
