TO REMAIN NEUTRAL
CHICAGO TEAM OWNERS AssOCIA-
 TION TAKES A VOTE.
Expansion of Trouble In this Direction Averted-Poiiti-
 cal Ambitions of Union
 Leaders Having Effect.

Chicago. June 1.-The Chicago Team Owners Association, an organization employing 5000 union teamsters, mas decided to remain neutral in the pres ent labor struggle now in progress Tn Chicago. Ever since the commence ment of the teamsters' strike the Team Owners Association has been desirous of having the question of making de- liyeries to the strike-bound houses sub mitted to arbitration. The teamsters by A unanimous vote, refused to agree to the proposition and for time It was believed that the team owners would force a strike or these 5000 drivers by ordering them to make de- livsries to firms involved in the strike.
 In an effort to learn the wishes or the members of the association regard ing the matter it was decided to take A referendum vote on the question. This was completed today and resulted in l55 of the members voting to remain neutral during the trouble and in three members voting to compel the team sters to obey orders. The decision reached by the owners means that there will be no strike of these men and the threatened expansion or the trouble in this direction has been averted.
 Negotiations for peace, which prom ised for a time last week to be suc- cessful. have apparently been abandon ed, for the present, at least.
 One of the causes for the prolonga- tion of the present strike is said to be the political ambitions of several Chi cago union leaders. At least three of the Chicago labor leaders desire to be president of the national organization of tenn sters. President Shea Is also desirous of reelection and these four men, it is asserted, have been making every effort possible to control the Chi caGo delegates to the convention to- day. Of these delegates three were instructed for Shea and the other four were uninstructed.
 With the election of these delegates out of the way, it was said by labor leader tonight that the union leaders would get together and bring about a settlement of the strike. When asked in regard to this matter tonight Pres ident Shea declared that there was no truth in the story and that all the union men were perfectly satisfied witt. the way in which he has managed the strike.
 There will be no settlement of the strike" said President Shea, until the employers show some disposition to offer us req sonable terms"

SOME OLD SONGS.

 Chicago Record Herald.
 It is well known that the famous song Darby and Joan" was written while the author was listening to his neighbors quarreling, but there are several other songs of equal popularity, which originated in an even more cu- rious way. says London Tit-Bits.
 Few people, for instance. are aware that The Old Folks at Home" was brought about by the grumbling of a negro groom. The author. stephen Eos ter. chanced to be changing horses at a Gentucky hotel. when the negro who unharnessed his horse happened to re- mark in a sturdy way, I'm sick of this life. I wish I was back with the old folks at home" Foster at once asked him where that might be, and he re- piled, "Oh, way down the Suwanee Riv- CT" While Foster was consuming a meal at the inn preparatory to restart- Ing on his journey he wrote both the words and music of the song, which at once leaped into fame.
 Signor Denza wrote "Funiculi Funi- cula" with no idea that it would become a famous song. He was then living at the little village of Castellamare, Tn Italy, and on the occasion of the open ing of the Mount Vesuvius Railway m 1880 some of the organizers came 10 him and asked him to write song TOT the fete which was being held. Good naturedly enough, Denza sat down with the intention of producing a lively air which the Italian peasant loves so well and in half an hour "Funiculi F'unlcula' was the result. The same day Denza sang it himself at the fete. and it's re, ception was so warm that he published the song. and soon it bounded Into in stantaneous fame thoughout Europe.
 It was an accident which led MiltoI dwellings to write his famous song

Some Day" his wife had gone out for a trip in a yacht on a neighboring lake with some friends, and late In the af- ternoon the news was brought to him that the yacht had been upset and the party drowned, but the composer could gain no information as to whether his wife had been saved or not. In this terrible suspense he could only walk his room till his eyes lighted on poem of Hugh Conways which was lying on his desk. The words suited his mood so we'll that he sat down. and, to Kill time dashed off the music in fifteen minutes.

An army bandmaster was responsible for the song "The Girl Left Behind Me" being written. He had gained great reputation as a hirt, ana on the day his regiment changed stations he was always absent bidding good-by to some young lady to whose charms he had fallen a victim, the same process heinz repeated at each station. Al length. out of sarcasm, one of hiS com- panions wrote the famous song, Which
 was played by the band whenever the bandmaster rejoined the regiment, and bv this easy stage 1t came to be the
 marching tune Of the Brltlsh army
 Rut for a practical joke the favorfte song "Kathleen Mavourneen," might
 never have been given to the world. The composer, Nichols Crouch. wrote if fin the train while going to Plymouth ou business for commercial firm, and when there he sang 1t to Mrs Rowe,
 who was well known In the music world. She asked him to sing 1t at her concert. but he refused. as he had only a small opinion of the song himself, kapd he would have discarded 1t alto 0ether had not he looked out of the l bed room window of his hotel the next morning to see a placard on the board ing opposite announcing that he would sing the new song "Kathleen Mavour- sen" that afternoon in Plymouth. Annoyed beyond measure, Crouch
 rushed of to Mrs. Rowe's house and began to upbraid her soundly for her | impertinence. but her persuasions at
 last prevailed, and that afternoon he | sang the song into fame. A week later he sold 1t to a publisher for ten pounds, and it said to have brought the pub
 fisher in 5000 pounds within a few years.
