CARS ARE KEEPING
NEAR TO SCHEDULE
Striking Motormen and Conductors Stand
Firmly, and Traction Company Has
Given No Hint of Receding.

The situation in the strike declared by
car men, conductors and motormen on
the Barre & Montpelier Traction & Pow
err Co.'S interurban line Wednesday at
midnight remained unchanged this after
noon. In Eagles hall at Montpelier the
members of the union met ut IL o'clock
for roll call and conference. The gen
eral organizer. j. H. Reardon of Worces-
ter. Mass. is still in this vicinity and
an unofficial statement proceeding from
the car mems headquarters, has it that
the strikers have no intention of accept
ing the overtures made by the company
Wednesday night. On the other hand,
the Tenney corporation, through its local
officials, maintains the same stand taken
as soon as the strike was declared,
Cars were running fairly rear the
schedule to-day. Road officials and car
barn employees are still in charge OF the
cars and this arrangement will be con
tinued indefinitely, so far as the an
nouncement from the company will indi-
cate. The assertion that the road is to
import strikebreakers Is denied in all
quarters. Thus far, according to re-
ports, the best Of feeling between the
conductors and niotormen and the COM
pany officials prevails. 1t is generally
understood and WAS a foTegone conclu-
sion, for that matter, that organized la
Dor both in Barre and Montpelier would
cease to patronize the interurban line.
Adherence to this principle Of nnionism
is causing Inconvenience to many stone
cutters in this city, large proportion
OF whom depend upon the electric cars
for transportation to and from work
Reports that worfingmen in Barre had
impeded traffic on the road by refusing
to leave the tracks on the approach of
a car are utterly false, according to the
statement Of man who Is supposed TO
be well informed on the situation. The
Central Labor union has vot-
ed unanimously to uphold the conten-
tions OF the strikers.
Among the business men and Others
there il an undercurrent of feeling that
the strike will not be of long duration
Just what prompts the feeling that
settlement viii not be long delayed il
not quite clear. Those who have been
prefer not to assign any
definite reason for believing that the
strike win soon terminate Ii is not
impossible that an arbitration commit
tee viii be vested with the authority
to adjust the differences now existing,
although neither side has made any off
rial suggestion with that end in view.

NAUGHTY TOWARD SUMMONS.
Mellen Can't come-Going to Be Tried
And Byrnes Is Too Busy.

Boston, Feb. 6-CharIes S. Mellen, for.
mer president of the New Haven rail-
road, declined to-day to appear before
the public service commission which is
investigating pablcity and other expenses
of the company in this state. Mellen
said that he could not leave Connecticut,
where he is about to be tried for man
slaughter, but he expressed willingness
to answer written questions. He said
he was acting under the advice of coun-
sci.
A reply also was received from Tim
,othy E. ByTnes, former vice president,
who is now in the West, in which he
said he had engagements there for two
or three months and could not break
them to come East.
A letter from Chairman Howard FL
lott of the New Haven. declining to
release the company's attorneys from
their obligations to their clients also was
read, and Arthur d. Hill. an attorney
representing Boston newspapers, asked
the commission to request the directors
to reconsider their action in this mat
ter In making the request Hill said
there seemed to be reluctance on the
part of many witnesses to tell the truth.

Summer Constipation Dangerous
Constipation in summer time is
more dangerous than in the fall,
winter or spring. The food you
eat is often contaminated and
is more likely to ferment in your
stomach. Then you are apt to
drink much cold water during
the hot weather, thus injuring
your stomach. Collie, Fever,
PtOmaine Poisoning and other
ills are natural results. PO-Do'
Lax will keep you well, as it in
creases the Bile, the natural lax
alive which ribs the bowels o.
the congested poisonous waste
Po-Do-Lax will make you fee
better. Pleasant and effective
! Take a dose tonight. 80 cent
at your druggist.

Committee INDICATED.

1t is only fair to the Greene
county Democratic central com
mittee to say, now that the prl-
mary is over, that the committee
was completely vindicated by the
vote in this county. The com
mittee, after long reflection, en-
dorsed Harry D.. burst for con-
gress. This was denounced as a
frameup, that it was gang poll
tics, that the resolution did not
represent the will of the Demo-
Gratis of the county or even OF
the committee. False state
ments were sent all over the dis
trict and they had much to DO
with the defeat of Mr.. burst.
The Leader said then and it
saws now that the committees &C
ton was taken by fair means
that the resolution represented
the views Of the committee anc
the county. The vote shows
this clearly. Mr., burst has car
ried the county by a good ma
.jority, showing the sentiment o
the county as voiced by the com
mittee.
The Democrats of the count,
went even further to sustain tn
committee. Every member VIII
was active in obtaining the Ell
dorsement for Mr.. burst was N
elected in the Third ward in spl
, of opposition. Charles Sanson'
an active burst supporter, owe.
: came opposition in the Fourt
ward. Messrs. Smith and Brl
: well 90 back from the two pr
I cincts of First even a more pr
nounced endorsement of Il
committee was obtained. M
Mitchell, who was denounced +
S being in former meetings of t
oommittee on proxies, was ele'
ed as a regular member and
4 spite of opposition.
Is Tt is distressing to the Den
a Gratis Of Greene county to II
the impression created I'm
north end of the district Il
Harry D. burst could be capa.
:, of machine or dishonest pollti
dealing, or that he would acc
y an endorsement from the coul
committee obtained by fraud.
Mr.. burst is defeated but
n dishonored. He would rather
I've where he is today than a VIC
Idi- if it were necessary to win
fraud and bearing false witne'
