NEW YORK, July 29.-Delaware &c
Lackawanna railroad switchmen are
voting on a proposition to strike. They
have a number OF grievances. the prin-
cipal one being the discharge OF sew
eral OF their members. These votes
will be counted today.
The men are said TO favor a strike.
but before one can take place the

the national executive officers must
sanction II and this will be done only
after these officers have failed in ef-
forts To arbitrate.
When President Truesdale, of the
Delaware & Lackawanna railroad.
was asked about the trouble he said:
They complained because OF the
discharge of q few men. but there Is
no serious trouble and we do not ex.
pect strike. The matter will
straighten itself out in few days"

CURRENT PALAVER
OF The POLITICIANS

Charles r. Bielman, former presl-
dent of the Board of Commerce, has
practically decided not to run for the
Republican nomination for mayor this
year. His reasons are purely person
al, as 1t Is his opinion that Republi-
can will be elected. Mr.. Bielman's
views are rather stronger on the
street railway question than those OF
the others mentioned for the mayor
atty. He has found from experience
in the passenger boat business that
reduction of fares means increased
traffic, and he figures that the d. u.
r. could profitably carry passengers
during most of the time for l-2 cents
apiece. His idea Of settlement
would be to find the rate at which
company can carry passengers at fair
profit.

 The latest occurred last night when the grocery store of " W. Smith was robbed. The burglars entered from the rear and came up through the cellar An effort was made to break open the iron safe, but the parties must have become frightened and did not accom- ulish their job The cash drawers was rifed, but of how much MT. Smith does not know.
 Last week the safe of E. R Purifoy was rolled on trucks a hundred yards or more from the store and broken open and rifed of $225.

MINE OWNERS FIRM
 FOR s0PEN SHOP. POLICY

Birmingham, July s.--(Epecial )--Af the headquarters of the union miners in Birmingham today the statement was given out that several mines were affected by men quitting work and joining the union.
 It was asserted that there were sev- eral hundred aecessions to the union ing made with the brightest of pros poets for victory.
 Commercial coal operators announced today that in the next few days the mines would resume operation with whatever labor applied on the open shop plan. A meeting Of the larger operators of the district was held today m one of the principal offices of an iron cora- pany, almost every large interest in the district belffs represented
 The following stktendent was given out after the sn1setlng.
 "At a fully Attended meeting of the furnace and some of the large com- rnercial operators. held this morning in the office of one of the large produc- CTS. it was unanimously decided to maintain the present open-shop con ditions
 @The coal S&6Hapanies recognize the right of any or all men to cease work ana the equal right of those desiring employment to secure 1t in any mines in Alabama. It was the further sense of the ineetiKg to afford every opportu- nity for the irAaners to retain their po- sitions and that no efforts would be spared to give ample protection to those .desirifikl to remain or secure work in the mines of the district.
 'erhis is taken to mean that the fight againskt4he closed shop will be pronounced. the furnace and commer- ciai coal companies being inclined against the union miners.

Many Of the patrons of aach of the lines, as operated formerly. used the other to complete their jonrneyn when their shopping or making noefaf or business visits. and the new syatagn avoided the trouble of transfer ttcir efr. The change had been made only after accurate reports of the number of pas. sengsrs carried on each line had been
 In speaking of the shuttle car aer- vice he said that it was being operated on an eight-minute schedule and that as it was merely for service to the sfa- ton 1t was managed as much aa pos- eiple Tn connection with arriving and departing trains and in the endeavor to make close connections with them the conductors of the cars sometimes broke their own schedules. The cut ting on of the Court Street, Oak Park and Cloverdale cars from service to the station had been done because Of the small patronage Of through tranie en the lines.
 The failure to make connections be- tween the Union Passenger station car and the cars on other lines is com plained of by many who come into Montgomery on the railway trains One man complained that after ar. irving on an early morning train a few days ago he had to wait a long time for car to Oak Park. He aaid that having just missed an Oak Park car he was compelled to wait until that car had gone to Highland Park and allowed another car to come to the city--a matter of forty-ave min utaa.
 There was yesterday q noticeable in- provement in the service on the Clover dale and Court Street lines It was the best service the patrons had had for a month.
