Order of Leaders.

The strike of the mail wagon drivers which

went into effect last night at 1870 o'clock The
strike tied up all deliveries south of 42d-st., all
the railroad stations. and if it continues will
stop deliveries from the incoming steamships.
The drivers who are organized as Local No.
537 of the International Brotherhood of Team
sters, ordered the strike after tumultuous
meeting lasting twenty-four hours at their head
quarters in 1Sth-st. The men number about one
hundred and fifty.
Word in the mean time had been received of
the strike at the General Postoffice, and c. w.
Walcott, who has the contract for carrying the
mails, sent advertisements to some of the papers
for two hundred men TO drive the wagons.
They were assured of temporary wages of 81 a
day. nearly double the wages the strikers were
receiving, and the contractor undertook to pro-
vide beds.
The contractor sent a small army Of men last
night to the different lodging houses the
Bowery and along 3d-ave. for to replace
the strikers, and a small force of men was mus
tered after an hour two. Police reserves
guarded all points, but with the exception of
fighting among themselves, the strikers caused
no disturbance.
AT the meeting Thomas Tandy, the president
Of the union, got into a violent dispute with
Conried Flack, of No. 623 East 13th-st., one
of the drivers. Tandy gave Flack a push,
knocking him down. The latter arose. bleeding
in the face, and had Tandy arrested the
charge of assault. Tandy was taken to the East
22d-st. station. where Flack refused to make a
complaint and Tandy discharged. At the
various branch offices police We're stationed
President Tandy of the union said last night
We have been after Mr.. Wolcock and Mr.
Travers constantly, but could not get near them
them could get nothing but promises. We had
to strike. and the strike was unanimous If
We had got a square deal we would have had
trouble. On September l went to see
Wolcott and Travers, to get advance for
the men, but there nothing doing with them.
Mr. Travers and + r Roome superintendent
of mail delivery, came TO the postoffce after
midnight and superintended. About dozen
automobiles were taken and each chauffeur was
accompanied by mail clerk. Each driver of d
mail wagon was accompanied by policeman.
In some cases strike picltets induced the new
drivers to quit.
According to Mr.. Travers the strikers de-
nanded Il ten hour wOrkday. 81 so a day for
double horse and 81 10 for single horse wagons.
Superintendent Roome calculated that they had
fifty new men, but were not sure even of all Of
these. There was less congestion than was OK

FIERCE RIOTING IN TOXIC.
FIVE HUNDRED WOUNDED
Only T7co Persons Kilied-SeOerdl
Police Stations Destroyed.


here last night because of dissatisfaction with
the results of the peace settlement.
There we're several clashes with the police,
and it is estimated that two persons were killed
and 500 wounded. Tie rioting ceased at mid
night. Police stations Were the only property
destroyed.
Sent : (delayed)-The first turbulence at
tendant upon the popular anger over the terms
of peace arranged with Russia took place to-
day mass meeting to protest against the ac-
ton of the government was called TO take place
at Hibiya Park, but the metropolitan ponce
closed the gates The municipality protested
against the action of the police ana hialiy 'lie
gates were thrown open. large crowd gath
cred and voted in favor of resolutions declaring
the nation huniliated and denouncing the terms
on which the treaty of peace was arranged
The crowd was serious in its conduct, rather
than angry and the police handled IT discreet
" The gathering dispersed in an orderly man
ner.
Later. however a crowd attempted TO hold
meeting In the Shintomi Theatre, and the ponce
dispersed it. Part of the crowd then went TO
tho office of the 'eKokumin Shimbun,' the gov
ernment organ, and began hooting Ihree eIll-
ployes of the paper, armed with swords ap-
neared at the door of the building and checked
the attack and the police again dispersed the
crowd.
II was thought that the trouble had passed.
when suddenly part of the crowd made rush
at the building. hurled stones and damaged
some of the machinery.
Several persons injured in the attack
brt the police eventually cleared the streets Of
the crowd and arrested a number of rioters
Tho disorder is not general and the situation is
not serious.
Similar meetings have been held at Osaka
aud Nagova which in round terms denounced
the government and asked the Ministers to re-
sign.
General sentiment through the country seems
TO favor reactionary measures, but 1t appears
clear that the majority of the people Will event
uallv accept the result Of the peace conference
however disappointing it may be.
