PEACE At HAND
Philadelphia Strike to End
Today or Tomorrow
CONCESSIONS FROM EACH SIDE
Powerful Influences Are Forcing
Agreement With Carmen. and
Even Mayor Reyburn Comes
Out For Peace
CONCESSIONS FROM EACH SIDE

Philadelphia. March ls.-It Is as
sumed that the Rapid Transit com.
pany and the striking carmen will
come 10 an agreement by tonight OF
Sunday at the latest
The company and the men are ne
gotiating amicably The bitterness
which marked the statements from
both sides early in the week has dis
appeared. Even Mayor Reyburn who
was stalwartly opposed 10 compromise
has moderated his utterances. His
honor spoke word or two for peace
Certain influences. business and po
ltical. have been working in secret
Tor ths past twenty-four hours They
were potent enough TO bring about a
modification OF the company's position
and a Willingness on the part OF the
strikers TO recede trifie In their de
mands. The belief Is now that there
will be no statewide strike because
the differences between the Rapid
Transit company and the carmen will
have been settled by Monday. the day
named by President Greenawalt OF
the state Federation OF Labor for the
inauguration OF the walkout.
Whatever agreement is reached will
have to do with the status OF the i73
conductors and motormen DISCHARGED
month ago for intoVication. knocking
down fares and the good OF the ser
vice. The peace ambassadors who
have been going from the Rapid Tran
sit company TO the men and from the
men to the company have succeeded
IL is understood. In persuading each
side to give way little The basis of
the agreement may be a guarantee on
the part OF the company that these
men shall be given individual trials
and chance to defend themselves.
and the guarantee on the part OF the
strikers that men proved guilty Of the
onenses charged by the company shall
be punished
The impression is pretty strong that
leaders of unions that have backed up
the carmen will not tolerate high
handed action by the carmen in case
the Rapid Transit company submits a
reasonable. proposal These leaders
understand that the sympathetic strike
here Is fizzling out and that there is
nothing for them 10 gain by holding
out much longer Greenawalt's call for
statewide strike was the last arrow
In the culver and the response To that
call has not been what was expected
Unions in the larger cities Of Pennsyl
vania who were asked what they in
tended To do on Monday in case the
Rapid Transit company and the car.
men hadn't come 10 terms Informed
Creenawalt thar their men might or
might not come out. but that the call
had not aroused great enthusiasm. The
miners sent word that they would
probably have 10 live up TO their three
year agreement with the operators
After he had talked with Senator
| McNichol and Recorder Ware. the Re
| publican leaders Mayor Reyburn said
that both sides in the labor contro
versy were feeling kindlier toward
each other and that some form OF
agreement would be reached very
| soon

Charley Coleman, the affable and
accommodating proprietor of the Gap

that seldom comes to man. lie went
horseback riding on newly broken,
bronco belonging to Gurley Brothers,
and was skipping over the prairies
south of town at a good clip, enjoy
ing a delightful smoke from his ever
present pipe and congratulating him
self OIL his splendid horsemanship and
the perfect control under which he
had the frisky animal, when the
Fiery" steed made a sudden lunge
and went cavorting over the prairie
like mad. Charley soon discovered
that his saddle fixings were on fire,
ignited 10y spark from his pipe, and
that his steed was literally a fiery one.
The faster the horse ran the larger
became the blaze, and death seemed
inevitable from either broken neck
or cremation in the saddle. lie pre-
ferred the former, however, and
jumped to the grOuud, holding on de-
sperately to the reins and soon had
the horse under enough control to
take the saddle off and stamp out
the lire. The next time Charley goes
horseback riding he will leave his
pipe ut home.
