CONFERENCE ON
'HATTERS' STRIKE
WITHOUT RESULT !!
No agreement Reached, It Is
Said, at Meeting Held
in Danbury.

DANBURY, Conn, June 5.-The
meetings between the national execu-
tive advisory boards Of the United
Hatters of America. and the Rev. }.
D. Kennedy, of st. Joseph's Church,
looking toward local settlement of the
hatters' strike, were brought to close
last night without an agreement being
reached.
Nothing definite was given out by
either side, but it is understood that
the union boards would not assent to
the men returning to work, pending a
settlement by arbitration, in open
shops. Owing to the membership of
the local manufacturers in the Manu-
facturers' Association, they are unable
to open their factories on other than an
open-shop basis without resigning.
Other steps toward a settlement will be
taken, it Is understood.

PHILADELPHIA, June 5.--With the
calling off late last night of the strike
of the motormen and conductors of
pany, which was inaugurated a week
ago, normal street car service was re-
sumed today on all lines. The first cars
started out at a. m. There was some
confusion about the eighteen carbarns
during the early hours in assigning
men to various runs, but these lit
tie difficulties gradually Strengthened
themselves out and when the morning
rush came at 7 a. m. the service was
practically normal and grew better as
time passed.
While the great majority of the men
are satisfied with the concessions won
from the company, there are some who
are still dissatisfied, declaring that the
strikers could have won more than the
twenty-five cents an hour If they had
held out. The vote of the men taken
at eighteen barns last night was
2,702 for the agreement and 1,097 against
the proposition. The total vote was

TAFT TO CONGRESS
President Transmits Report Of
Magoon and Praises His
Administration.
MAKES FORMAL REPORT
OF GOMEZ ELECTION
Expresses Hope for Welfare and
Strength of New Gov
ernment.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-Presfden,
Taft today transmitted to the Congress
with special message the report OF
Charles e. Magoon, who served as pro-
visional governor of Cuba during the
last American occupation of the island
The President takes occasion to con.
gratulate Governor Magoon for his
services both to the United States and
to Cuba, and gives high praise to Major
General Thomas H. Barry, who was In
command of the United States forces
The Presidents message follows:
THE Senate and House Of Representa-
tives:
81 have the honoss to transmit here
with communication from the acting
secretary of war, under date Of May s.
submitting the report, with accompany.
ing exhibits, of Honorable Charles Ma
goon, provisional governor of Cuba, fol
the period from December /, 1906, tc
January g., 1909, when provisional gov
ernment was terminated and the island
again turned over to the Cubans.
II recommend In accordance with the
suggestion of the actinv Secretary OF
War, that this report and the exhibits
be printed. / think 1t only proper to
take this opportunity to say that the
administration of Governor Magoon of
the government of Cuba from 1905 to
1909 involved the disposition and set
tlement of many very difficult ques-
tions and required on his part the ex-
ercise of ability and tact of the high
est order. 1t gives me much pleasure
to note in this public record the credit
due to Governor Magoon for his dis
tinguished service.
THE army of Cuban paci1cation, un-
der Major-General Barry. was of the
utmost assistance to the preservation
of the pease of the island and the main
tenance of law and order without the
slightest friction With <ke inhabitants
of the island, although the army was
widely distributed through the six PROV
inces and came into close contact with
the people.
Refers to New Regime.
The administration of Governor Ma
coon and the laws recommended by the
advisory commission, with Colonel
Crowder, of the Judge advocate general
corps at Its head, and put in force by
the Governor, have greatly facilitated
the progress of good government in
Cuba
AT fair election, held under the
advisory commissions new election
law. General Gomez was chosen Presi-
dent. and he has begun his administra-
tion under good auspices. 1 am glad to
express the hope that the new govern
ment will grow In strength and self
sustaining capacity under the pro-
visions of the Cuban Constitution.

Freeman's attitude in regard to Miss
Goldman and Berkman and their cause,
during which Mr.. Freeman was ar
raigned scathingly. with little said in
his defense. the secretary was in
structed to write Mr.. Freeman a letter
asking for his resignation within ten
days. These ten days of grace were
only extended. 1t is said, because of pro-
visions of the constitution which grant
that period to members under the ban
In which to make up their minds.
Receivers from Experiences.
Since his unpleasant experience In
Manhattan, when he was one of sew

been confined to his bed at his home In
East Orange. He was well enough to
be up yesterday, and when he was
sought today was said to be out.
Joel Francis Freeman, father of AL

Members Of the Country Club have

Socialistic Views find expression and
publicity. Mr.. Freeman is one Of the
