out Of All Employees in New York
81 and Jersey City Is Ordered.
New York, March 18.-Drivers and
helpers of the Adams, United States
and Wells-Fargo Express companies in
New York city and Jersey City have
struck in obedience to general strike
order issued in Jersey City. Employees
of the American and National Express
companies reported for work as usual,
but leaders of the strikers declared
they expected them to join the walk
out.
The strike will involve upward of
5000 men and affect many others.
The strike started several days ago
with the men Of the Adams company,
who complained of alleged discrimina-
ton against certain employees involved
in the general strike last fall.
. It was believed Thursday that Set
|: Element of the difficulty between the
Adams men and the company was in
prospect through the promise of the
leaders that the men would return to
work pending discussion of settlement

Used to bring about.
This plan, however, was overturned
at meeting of delegates of the en-
ployes of the various companies in
Jersey City, when it was decided not
only to keep the Adams men out, but
to extend the strike sympathetically
to the men of the other companies.

fiat.
One Of the real interesting events
Of the afternoon was the. calm man
ner in which Senator Charles S.
Marden, republican from Barnes
vile, arose in his seat with the
dumbfounding Information that he
was surprised that no voice of pro-
test had been raised from the ninth
congressional district. He told of
having received a pledge from the
secretary of the Northern Minnesota
Development association and that he
refused to sign it but did agree to
aid in work of securing reapportion-
ment. Senator Marden did not say
anything about having placed his
signature in ink to an agreement to
support the Congdon bill and he
blindly voted against it.
Senator George H. Sullivan, re-
publican from Saltwater; ATTEMPTED
to bring about peace conference
and as last effort to save the bill
moved that it be recommitted to the
reapportionment committee. This
was agreed to by Chairman Hackney,
but was opposed by Senator Clague
who said:
ut is time this mater was whipped
out here and now. When there was
a chance to recommit the steam roll
err wouldn't permit. This bill never
can be properly remedied, anyhow"
Senator D. A. Duxbury, republican
from Caledonia, Houston, followed
with some words against the bill
which ought to live in history. Here
are some of the gems of thought Of
fered by the Caledonia statesman,
after he had talked sarcastically of
St. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth and
the iron ranges:
:'This bill should not go back to
the committee It's friends might
make a few more concessions aud set
few more votes but the vice OF the
bill would remain. There is only
one thing to do, and that we can do.
Kill this bill so dead that no other
of it's kind ever can come up again."
Senator A. L. Hanson of Ada ex-
planned that the arrangement in his
district had been worked out to his
satisfaction and that he believed
the bill was a safe and fair one and
urged that it be passed.
Senator Schaller, democrat of
Hastings, declared that reapportion-
ment has been hanging like a pail
over this body and now we ought to

in danger was without foundation and
that the prisoners would receive every
possible consideration.

final vote was then taken.
