two boys met death, caused by a boat
springing aleak, horrible as it is,

II is a good sign that nobody seems

There has been allegation that

Without doubt, the increasing out

It is more than likely councils wiz
take some positive action this after
noon. but whether II Is not already
too late to avert the general strike Is
a question.
The political leaders have passed
the word that the car strike must be
ended and the general strike averted.
If councils can force the company to
arbitrate the strike may be settled.
But the stand of the city officials and
police authorities is going out of their
way to aid the street car company In
its efforts to break the union. has
incensed the workers to such a pitch
that their leaders may be unable to
hold them in check.

strike Friday at midnight unless this
