WITH TAFT COMING
CARMEN STRIKE
STREET CAR EMPLOYEES or
OMAHA WALK OUT AND
LEAVE CITY WALKING.

Omaha, Sept. 1s.-The street car
system Of Omaha and Council Bluffs
was unexpectedly put out of commits
sion today when the trainmen went
on strike. The walkout was 50 I'M
expected that not even the stree,
railway officials were prepared for IL,
and IT worked no little hardship on
patrons of outlying districts.
While the tienp was not complete
the service on every line was SO seri-
ously crippled that no attempt was
made To run cars on schedule time.
Officials Of the company, after
two-hnur's session In the middle OF
the day. decided to entirely abandon
transportation service during the eve
ming. No violence has been reported
The strike resulted from failure
of the employees Of the street car CON-
pany To reach an agreement In regard
10 wages. conditions and hours Of en-
nloymenf. The walkout was procip-
itated when tho city OF Omaha was
preparing tn entertain the president of
the United States and several national
conventions of fraternal orders and
other organizat atoms.
The president will arrive Monday
afternoon and the committees are
making extraordinary efforts to pre-
vent any occurrence which might mar
his visit to the city.
The first lawlessness to result from
the strike occurred late tonight at the
car barns when several strikers
bounced upon and beat Officer Tsmms
while the latter was endeayoring to
dispense gathering OF strikers. Ser
geant Sigwarth hurried to the scene
and arrested two strikers. An at
tempt will be made tomorrow to run
cars on all lines
