ply of the Central Labor Union
Adds to the Uneasiness in Working.
mems Circles.
Philadelphia, Feb. 28.-The begin.
ming of the second week of the strike
against the Philadelphia Rapid Tran
sit company finds the city authorities
apprehensive of what may develop, in
spite of the great gains toward the
complete re-establishment of order
made in the last two days.
The arrest of John J. Murphy, the
young president Of the Central Labor
union, on the charge of melting to
riot, has added to the uneasiness in
labor circles.
The warrant for Murphy's arrest
was issued at the direction of Director
Of Public Safety Clay, following the
publication of the following statement:
said to have been made by the head
of the Central Labor union:
"You can depend upon it that a
general strike will be called. If one
man is shot in Kensington there will
follow a carnival of riot and blood
shed which will startle the entire
country. The state police would be
helpless. Just wait little while for
developments and you will see some
thing which will open your eyes," ~
Calls It Violation Of Law.
"This statement was made to news
paper reporters for publication" said
Director Clay, zone of whom was sent
for and who stated that the above
statement of Mr.. Murphy's, as pub
lished, is substantially correct. have
been advised by the law officers of the
city and county that the same is "a
violation of law and melting to riot
and therefore it is my duty, as direc-
tor of public safety, to place him I'm.
der arrest"
Murphy denied that he had made
such a statement for publication. He
says he merely expressed an opinion
as to what might develop if the strike
continues and the company refuses to
arbitrate. The published statement
itself, he said, showed that warning
and not a threat was intended.
The fiat refusal of the board of d.
rectors of the Rapid Transit company
to entertain a proposition of arbitra.
ton leads many to believe that the
contest will continue until one or the
other surrenders. The committee of
prominent clergymen who, proposed
the arbitration plan will hold another
meeting to consider what further
move, if any, shall be made.

BIG FIGHT STILL IN DOUBT

Promoters Dissatisfied with Reception
at San Francisco.
San Francisco, Feb. 28.-That it is
by no means certain yet that the JEFF
fries-Johnson fight will be staged in
or around San Francisco became
known when it was learned that nego-
tiations are about to be reopened
with Salt Lake City, with a view of
ascertaining if the big battle cannot
be held there.
That the promoters of the fight
have not met with the reception here
they had hoped for and that they are
not entirely agreed as to the course
to pursue has become apparent and
finds vent in various rumors in sport
ing circles of another split between
Tex Richard and Jack Gleason and in
timations that extortionate demands
are made for a place for an arena.
