WHAT Mr.. SHEPPARD SAYS

Up to noon today there We're no indi
cations of strike on the part OF th'
freight handlers in the employ of th'
Pennsylvania Railroad Company in con
nection with the strike of the Nes
Haven and Hartford Railroad freight
handlers
General Superintendent Frank c.
Sheppard said last night
.sThe average number of cars ferried
daily is 2,200 We have not been able to
move thoshe cars because of the FIRE
mems strike. We have given orders te
sidetrack trains due in Jersey City and
send them by some other route or let
them wait. OF course there has been
some congestion. If we can get the
necessary number of iremen we can
straighten this matter out almost i'm
mediately. Perishabie express will be
handled on the Express and Maryland
Much local and through freight is being
handled by the Poughkeepsie Bridge
route"
Despite the hopeful assurances of the
railway officials they sent notices to their
agents in Boston and other places that
for the day no freight for New York and
its vicinity should be accepted for i'm
mediate delivery. 1t was explained that
the order applied only to yesterday and
that new orders to guide their agents
would be issued every day.
When the transfer boat Maryland.
from Mott Haven, reached Jersey City
at 4 p NJ. with the Federal express.
two strikers got on board and induced
the fremen to leave their posts. This
did not delay the departure of the train.
but it had the effect of keeping the
Maryland in the slip, thus preventing
the transfer boat Express. laden with
AAE cars AAOA1 AolhA1S- <AAtCl NoA-
siderable delay the Express was sent tc
the Adams Express aoat at Bay street,
where the cars, most of them carrying
perishable freight, were pulled into the
Pennsylvania yards.
President Curran of the International
Union of Freight Handlers. who. it was
said, had decided to call out the freight
handlers employed at the terminals of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, had given no
such order up to noon today, and it is
said his plan was abandoned because of
information to the effect that the men
would not obey such an order. Within
the last few weeks the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company has laid off 1900
men, and may lay off 10000 more within.
the next month. and these facts have ex-
erted a powerful influence on the com
pany's freight handlers.

Defeated AGAIN
Champions Suffer Another
Reverse at the Hands Of
Rochester.
NEWARK ALSO LOST
Bisons Beat the Sailors in the
Score Of 4so 3-Toronto
Won at Home.

The Champions met with another de-
feat yesterday at the hands of Rochester.
Pfanmilier went to pieces in the eighth.
inning. He was wild and ineffective in
tight places Up to the eighth the game
was pretty contest. The score then
stood 3 to 3. Then Pfanmiller gave a
base on balls and struck out batsman.
Two Singles sent home the two men on
bases. Another single and homer by
Lepine gave the locals 5 runs at that
stage of the game alone. Lepine made
his rome run on straight drive over
FIRST base. 1t was one of the longest hits
ever made on the grounds and was the
big feature of yesterdays game.
sPat" McAuley, the new catcher for
Rochester proved great addition
veritable tower of strength. The Roch-
ester men played with more confidence
and the visitors did not show their usual
aptitude for stealing bases. The four
stolen were the gift of Pitcher Faulkner,
wo allowed tie men to get lead ttat
rendered it next to impossible to throw
them out at either second or third.
Captain Smith of the Rochesters was
fined SIS and sent to the bench for disput-
ing rather yellow looking decision by
Umpire Haskell in the seventh inning.
