That the relations of the two men

The tangled political situation was
thoroughly discussed, and the an

intend to withdraw Is taken TO mean
that his brother Emilio Vasquez Go
mez, will not accept the nomination

TRAFFIC RESUMED IN
OBEDIENCE OF COURT ORDER

Des MoineS, Aug. 6.-PrOmptly az
5 o'clock this afternoon street car
traffic was resumed in Des Moines
and the forty-eight hour strike, which
began at / o'clock Saturday morning
was terminated.
For the first time in the history OF
the country the order of court has
put an end to what gave every indi-
cation of being a bitter labor strug-
gle.
The mandate issued by Judge Law
renee dc Graft of the district court
last night was promptly obeyed by the
Des Moines City Railway company and
the carmen's union and while there IL
ample prospect of a fight later in the
courts, an injunction has restored
temporarily at least, nearly 500 on
ductors and motormen 10 their orig
inal positions. BY 8 o'clock traffic
had almost resumed its normal con"
dition.
That new method of handling
abor difficulties has been discovered
was the statement of n. I. Guernsey,
attorney for the street car company
tonight. following the acquiesence OF
the company In Judge de Graffs ord
er. He said his clients were not satis-
fled that the court was within its
Jurisdiction In issuing the mandatory
injunction. but for the present they
were willing to abide by it. leaving
to a later date the trial OF the case
on its merits.
Fred Fay international board
member of the Amalgamated Associa-
ton OF Street and Electric Employees
Of America, who conducted the briei
strike, was much pleased with the
turn of events tonight.
He said that while the members OF
the executive committee had prefer
red that the strike continue until q
new agreement was signed, the inter-
vention of the court was acceptibie
because it gave to the union exact
Is what it had asked. This was the
reinstatement of Conductor Hiatt
whose recent discharge without an in
vestigatlon led to the trouble and the
order that arbitration must decide
whether no is to remain with inc
company.
The suit in equity which Terminated
the strike, was brought by the city OF
Des Moines, upon the order OF the
city council late last night. a hearing
to determine whether the injunction
shah be made permanent probably
will be had tomorrow.
n. r. Guernsey. counsel for the
company, discussed the legal phase OF
what he calls a new method OF settl-
ing strikes, In a statement to the AS
sociated Press. The statement fol-
lows
If this order ithe court mandate)
