CITY COUNCIL
IS SEEKING TO
AVERT STRIKE
Philadelphia Officials Consider,
ing Ways and Means to
Save City
GENERAL OPINION IS THAT
SYMPATHETIC STRIKE IS CERTAIN
Organizer Pratt, However, Believes
Tha. Arbitration Is Certain-Extra
Police Force Protecting Council
Meeting.

Philadelphia, March 3.-All Phil
adelphia is waiting with anxiety the
outcome of the meeting of the city
council this afternoon to discuss
ways and means of bringing about a
termination of the street carmen's
strike which has been stiffling busi-
ness for the last twelve days.
Just what the council might be able
to accomplish in view of the mayors
seemingly unalterable stand against
arbitration of any character, is prob
lamatical. The general opinion among
persons who were thought to be in
position to know the feelings of the
officials of the company was that
there was little hope Of averting the
sympathetic strike. Notwithstanding
the obstinancy with which the COM
pany treated any overtures looking
to arbitration. Organizer Pratt was
still optimistic today and maintained
that arbitration would yet be an ac-
complished fact.
An extra detail of policemen was
ordered on duty at the city hall to
prevent the friends of arbitration
from storming the council chamber,
as was done in 1905, when a monster
demonstration was made against the
obnoxious lease of the city gas works.
Strike Breaking.
South Bethlehem, Pa, March g.
More men returned to work today at
the Bethlehem steel works than at
any time since the violent outbreak
of the foreign strikers last Friday.
The company expects to steadily in
crease it's force. Picketing by the
strikers is still going on, however,
and the leaders of the strikers are
not letting up in their efforts to keep
the great plant crippled. Two COM
panies of the state police and 100
deputy sheriffs are still on duty.

Mr.. Reid. lifelong friend of Morse,
has much of his business in charge, and

Morse is not the squealing kind, and
those men know it. But If they thought

so backward in giving n,m their aid, -
added Mr. Reid.
According to him. the fifteen-year-o

Younk Knox was discovered in the
lobby Of a hotel after he had been to in
terview his father. The young man
slipped into town with Dr. French
principal of the Morris Heights school,
who went with young Knox TO break
the news. The small army of photOg-
raphers and reporters that had been
storming the Union station was so in
tent on finding blonde young woman
with a red feather IN her hat that they
overlooked young Knox entirely.
DR.. French and his pupil hurried to
the Knox home on X street. After the
parental interview DR.. French bolted
for train and Knox went to a hotel
and telegraphed his wife TO come to
him. Young Mrs. Knox arrived in two
hours and gave evidence of feeling as
though they had been separated a
week
While they were waiting to start for
Providence, young Knox was quite
willing TO talk about his marriage, but
very reticent about his interview with

DETECTIVES FILL HOUSE
Songbird Is Ready for An Attack,
But Doesn't Want
It.

New York. March s.-More carefully
guarded by police than President Taft
on his visit here, Enrico Caruso, the
tenor who recently received Black Hand
letters demanding $4,000, remained
barred in his apartments today. The
singer is said to have received more
threatening letters.
Caruso made his first public appear
ance in opera last night since the Black
Hand startled him with its demands.
No less than seventy-five policemen,
four detectives and three mounted po-
licenen were detailed to look for lurking
dynamiters in and about the opera
house in Brooklyn.
Detectives mingled in the chorus,
while police guarded the wings and one
or two perched in the flies.
81 am ready for the attack" said
Caruso valiantly, but" here he re-
lapsed into a smile, IT prefer that it
should not come"

Restraining orders without notice
rest today he says, mot upon the au-
thority of the law, but upon grace of
the chancellor, because the constitution
of the United States and acts of con-
gress having vested the courts with
equitable jurisdiction, the equitable
power of the judge, acting as chaneel-
lor to prevent irreparable mischief,
cannot be restrained by statute.
The present bill. he says. writes into
the statute two clearly-defined confin-
gencies and confers upon the federal
Judge by law the power to issue re-
strainlng orders without notice when
ever they are shown to exist. and pro-
vides further that the nature of the ir-
reparable injury and the reason for
granting the order without notice shall
be entered upon the records of the
court"
'sThe BILL he adds. does not impose
upon the complainant anything but a
clear, reasonable and equitable duty,
but 1t does impose Upon him the neces-
sity for action. He cannot hold his adj
yersary helpless and without a hearing
for an indefinite time"

Senate Committee Questions
Retail Meat Dealers from
Populous Centers on Cause
of the Present High Prices.
ELGIN BUTTER BOARD is
PLACED UPON DEFENSIVE
On Day Senate Decided to
Probe High Cost of Living,
Butter Board Sent Price
Down 7 Cents a Pound.
A GREAT BUTTER COMBINE

Washington, March S.-Retail
meat dealers today placed upon the
farmers and the packers, responsible
ity for the higher price of meat in
testimony given before the Senate
committee investigating the in.
creased cost of living.
Five retail men from New York,
Philadelphia, Baltimore and Wash
ington were heard and Walter Brown,
a Washington dealer who kills his
own meat, was the only one who did
not admit that the price Of meat had
gone up at least 10 per cent during
the last five years.
Mr.. Brown insisted that prices
were practically the same now as
then.
All agreed, however, that eompeti-
ton among the retailers kept the
price to the consumer as low as pos
sible.
retailers were responsible for prevailing
prices, and none would admit that any
agreement on prices existed among
them
No Competition.
While no one charged that the pack
ers were in combination. all the wit
nesses who had dealings with them de-
clared there seemed to be no competi-
fTraA ia al n
was made to the packers about advanc-
ing prices. they said the latter explained
that the stock was scarce.
John Rohlman. WHO conducts a mar
ket in New York, told the cOpmittee
that competition among the retailers In
New York was so keen that they had
been unable to keep pace with the
steady increased prices which the
wholesalers had forced upon them dur
ing the last fifteen years. He said the
increases during that time amount to
about cents pound on beef to both
the retailer and the consumer. Asked
by Senator Simmons why the retailer
had not added something to the price
to the consumer to cover this increased
expense for help and rent, the witness
said:
1.-THE merchants in New York are be-
ing crushed to the wall by the whole
salers, who represent the packers. We
have to sell at the lowest possible price,
otherwise others will undersell us and
we viii lose our trade
He declared that the retailers had no
agreement among themselves, and that
they had no agreement with the whole
salers not to sell under certain price.
He intimated that there appeared to be
an understanding among the whole
Salers. Beef had increased about 20 per
cent in five years, he said, and pork
and poultry had doubled In ten years.
Questioned as to the price Of staple

Trains Start Across Nevada
This Morning After System
Is Tied up Ten Days by
Washout in Palisade Canyon

Through traffic between San Francis
co and Ogden on the Southern Pacific
railroad, which has been interrupted
since a week ago last Sunday by slides
and washouts in Nevada, will be re-
sumed this morning, with the departure
from Ogden of Southern Pacific train
No. 3 at $50 o'clock, and the departure
of train No. from Oakland at about
the same time.
Official announcement of the decision
to resume traffic on the main line was
received in Salt Lake last night in a
telegram from j. NJ. Davis, general SUI
perintendent of the Salt Lake division
of the Hartman system. who has been
in Palisade canyon, where most of the
damage occurred, the past few days.
The message was dated at Carlin, New,
just east of Palisade canyon, and con-
veyed the information that trains Nos.
and would be started oyer the main
line the first thing this morning.
Repairs to the washed out portion of
the track, and to the several bridges
which were swept from their founda-
tons, were completed in much quicker
time than was anticipated at the Salt
Lake or Ogden offices of the Hartman
system the early part of the week, and
ii had been stated that not until the end
of this week would 1t be possible to re-
sumo traffic over the devastated por-
ton of the line

eral Manager w. H. Bancroft and Su-
perintendent Davis of the Oregon Short
Line are working west of Palisade,
where the most severe damage from the
washouts following the rampage of the
Humboldt river was done, and it is GER
tain to be several days before perma-
nent repairs are made.
Last nights announcement Of the re-
sumption of through traffic today came
as a great surprise, the last promises
from official circles designating Satur-
day or Sunday as the earliest possible
time when through service would be
restored.

together, and / shall go to work, il
necessary, to support my wife"
The interview at the secretary's home
evidently was short. The young man
said he had no reason to believe he
would hear from his father before
leaving Washington.

from him IN Providence after he gets

SCHEME TO RAISE MONEY.
Denver Woman's Speciality Was to
Attend Funerals as Mourner.

Denver, Colo, March Sit will be
some time before Clara Howell will be
able to resume her alleged vocation of
professional mourner, according to the
Denver police. She was arrested to-
day, charged with begging.
The policeman said the woman, wear
ing black scarf which extended over
her head and under her chin, made a
practice of attending funerals, not only
at undertakers' chapels, but even at
private homes Slipping quietly into
the funeral service, she would take a
seat and begin to weep. Naturally
some of the relatives of the deceased
would inquire concerning the identity
of the mourner. Then the disconsolate
one. according to the police, would in
variably say she was acquainted with
the departed. and, incidentally. would
call attention to her own poverty. She
was generally successful, the police as
sert, in getting loan"
Policeman Burdette heard so many
complaints concerning the woman that
he took her into custody today at
funeral

The President again urges the impor-
lance Of the pending legislation. and de-
clares that while the Moon bill does not
meet views of extremists on either side,
il should be adopsed as carrying out
one of the platform pledges Of the
party.
referring in his letter to the Presi-
dent 10 a circular issued by the Nation
al Association of Manufacturers under
the caption, "A Critical Situation" Mr.
Moon declared that the statements
made therein and the Interpretation
placed thereon are erroneous and mis-
leading. and intended TO create an arti-
fetal pubic sentiment against the pend
ing measure.
He says that "the only provisions of
the bill that are the subject Of criticism
are. first, the one that eonfers upon the
court judicial power to issue restrain
ing orders without notice in certain
cases; and second. the one that provides
that the restraining order So issued
shall expire within seven days unless
action is taken by the complainant to
prosecute the same.
