FRANCES EMPLOYEES ANED
Government Seems to Have the
Situation Well in Hand.
STRIKE WILL BE POSTPONED
Postal Employees frs ve BeEun = Move
ment to Expose Alleged Rotten
ness In Management of
Telephone Service.

PARIS, May 1O~-Conditions are rather
favorable for the government in it's con-
troversy with the postal employees and II is
not likely that 4 strike will be declared
for the present, The governments firm
ness has made A deep impression on the
rank and file and the leaders of the strike
movement may conclude to postpone the
battle until they are better organized and
prepared for what would prove to be a hard
struggle.
A meeting called for today by the federal
committee was attended by about 1900 per-
sons, but no great enthusiasm was shown.
A resolution was adopted to go out at the
word of commsnd in the fight for the re-
instatement Of the dismissed employees and
for complete reform in the postal service.
Delegate Mccarthy, representing the Eng
lish postal employees, gave assurances of
the financial and moral support of their
English colleagues. He concluded his
speech by shouting: "vive la France; vive
rentente cordiale."
A section Of the postal employees is en-
gagged in exposing alleged candals in the
telephone service. The charge is made that
much money has been ~suuandered and par
ticular reference is made to purchases in
the United States to repienish the plant
destroyed when the telephone exchange was
burnd last year.
The various unions in the Seine depart
ment have called a meeting OF delegates
for Wednesday to decide what steps shall
be taken to help the postal employees in
case Of strike, to counterbalance the aid
offered TO the government by merchants
and employers in general.
BRUSSELS, May 9.-An arrangement has
AaAA -
whereby, in case OF necessity. any Of the
state employees. including soldiers. could be
detailed to other services for the purpose
of meeting such contingencies as might
arise. The particular object of the gov
ernmental departments is to be prepared
in case the Belgian postal employees follow
the example of the French.

ism, for the origin of the fire, as the barn
was locked and there was nothing near
it to cause a fire. The barn was a sub
