Union Is Recognized by Com
pany, and Men Are
Iubilant.
Especial to The Times-Dispatch. ]


Buffalo, N Y, April 1.-THE street
car strike is over. Tomorrow morn
ing the majority OF 1000 conductors,
motormen. linemen and tracl<men who
have been on strike since early last
Sunday morning will report for duty.
The decision was reached this after
noon after an all-day session between
Mayor Furhmann and representatives
OF the traction company and the
strikers. The company finally agreed
to recognize the union and meet with
n committee of the men in few DAYS
to settle schedule and working con-
dltions. Inasmuch as recognition OF
the union was the principal demand OF
the strikers. the agreement was quick
ly signed. and the strikers offered to
return to work within forty eight
hours. The company requested the
men to report for their usual runs to-
morrow morning, and at o'clock serv-
ice which has been totally demoralized
for six days will be resumed.
1t is expected that an order for the
withdrawal of troops will be Issued
tomorrow morning. There were sew
eral reasons why the company finally
agreed to the demands OF the meh.
The State Board of Arbitration had
begun It's sessions. and the Attor-
eyGenerars office had begun an in
vestigation.
The county officials had served a
notice on the company that they must
pay for the troops being maintained.
inasmuch as the city and county au-
thorities had not called for them. The

ters of wide Importance. were offered
and adapted after much sharp debate
among the delegates, in which they
showed both earnest determination
and knowledge OF the questions which
they face.
With regard to work among the
younger girls, 1t was stated that "in
proportion as the problems OF the

that. therefore, especial emphasis
should be placed upon junior work.

convention The letter stated that in
Hamilton the water was still up TO

that 10000 persons were homeless,

that in Dayton, Ohio, where building

the young women are, OF course, un-

A resolution was offered by Miss
Reynolds. calling for a collection TO
