DECIDE NOT TO STRIKE.
Committee of Telephone Operators
Will Submit Question to Vote.

Boston, Mass, April 1o.-There will
be no strike Of telephone operators in
Boston: This was. definitely decided
early today after, representatives OF
the New England Telephone Company
and their operators had been in con-
ference throughout, the night.
A vote will be taken by the opera
tors tomorrow morning at which they
will formally rGtify the action Of their
committee in electing the. agreement
with the company. The new arrange
ment will go into effect June I.
Although the threatened strike has
apparently been settled, the action of
the company in importing strike-break
ars from New York, New Jersey, Chi
cago, Pittsburg and even more west
ern points and installing them in the
most fashionable hotels as might betit
so many heiresses, threatens to create
country wide labor complications.
1t is understood that an attempt will
be made in Washington to pass a law
forbidding such action. The Central
labor Union will also take up the
matter with the Interstate Commerce
Commission, it is expected.

Richmond, Va, April 1O.-Stock-
holders Of the Richmond Washington
highway corporation yesterday heard
The first annual report of the board
Of directors, submitted by President
Henry w, Anderson. carrying y
most encouraging summary of the
work Of the year, and. wiki Two ex
cepticns, reelected the directors for
another term. The board will hold
its annual meeting next Wednesday
at noon fo. the purpose of eiectlng
officers and transacting such other
business as may come before it.
The report of the directors shows
that the greater par. of the proposed
highway has been surveyed and To-
Gated and that WORK is now in pro-
grcss on various sections of the road
in nearly every county between
Richmond and Washington. The work
will be prosecuted with the open
ing Of spring with even greater dill
gence, and the directors state they
expect to have it completed and open
for travel by the coming of winter.
The route selected by the directors

this route is approximately l25 miles
as against 145 miles via the next
5hortest route proposed.
The Dumfries district in Prince
William, has not begun work on the
road as located, but the supervisor
has in hand aboDs $4,000 of state
aid funds and $1,000 or private con-
tributions. With such aid as this
corporation can give, it is believed
that the road through this district
can be improvide to Occoquan dis
trict has already begun work, and
has constructed the road from Occa-
uan about two and une-half miles

been raised by private contributions
along this road, and, with such aid
as the corporation can give, it IS be-
lievcd hat the work can be promptly
completed.
The road to Occaquan and be-
yo.d Lorton has been improved by
the United States reformatory, To-
Gated near that point, and is in first
class condition. The supervisor Of
lie district between Lorton and AL

no trouble in arranging for the COM

Between Alexandria and Washing

these arc being improved, and there
will be no difficulty about an improv-
