A Comet Visible These Niohts.

The Record received a notice over
the telephone from voice today stat
ing that for the past three mornings,
between three and four o'clock,
comet has been plainly visible in the
eastern sky and that 1t would appear
there again tonight and tomorrow
night, at the same time. Whether this
is merely a trick to get people up
early or not we are unable to say. No
comet has ever been making noise
enough to wake us up at that hour.

Chicago should bring about a strike
in New York This trouble in Chica-
go is local in its nature, and should
not affect this city. Only fifty per
cent of the operators in the eastern
division belong to the union, and in
the even of a possible strike we would
be able to handle the business With
out delay. The company is paying the
an increase as agreed to
in the settlement made recently, and
there is 40 reason for the strike"
At local headquarters of the Tele-
graphers' Union it was said today
that strike of the operators here be-
cause of the trouble in Chicago was
very unlikely.
