cal phase tonight when w. D. Mahon.

mated Association OF Street and Electric
! Railway Employees Of America. who ar
rived in this city to-day, announced that

efforts in cooperation with Mayor Rey-
burn to arrange for arbitration Of the
differences existing between the Phila-
delphia Rapid Transit Company and those
Of its employees affiliated with the asso-
ciation.

pers. president of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor. would come tomorrow to
confer with him. and others Identified
with the amalgamated association and
with Frank Feeney. president Of the Cen
tral Labor Union. and other labor organi-
zations. with regard 10 the failure to in
duce the Rapid Transit Company TO treat
with its employees.
Mayor Reyburn made public letter
addressed by him TO the directorate Of
the company. in which he recommended
that the men discharged because they
were affiliated with the local division Of
the Amalgamated Association be restored
to the respective positions.
Stri<ebreakers Leave Camp.
Most startling OF the developments to-
night, was the sudden breaking up Of
James Farley's camp of strike breakers
at Willow Grove Park where they have
been quartered for the last nine days
The fhen had been prepared for a long
stay, and the guards had been doubled

This sudden departure is said to be the
result OF a stormy session of the rapid
transit company directors, at which It
was charged that the Farley outfit was

red rag in the face Of the present CON
dition.
Political interests. aroused at the pro-
test of labor unions upon Farley. and the
methods OF the police department, in the
present situation. are said TO have used
pressure 10 close the camp. The po-
litical menace of the affair is growing
