RIVAL DEMONSTRATION HELD.
Sweden Socialists Match the Farmers in
Recent Appearance.

Stockholm, Feb. 9.-Thirty thousand
Socialists held demonstration yester-
day in front OF the government Offices
against increasing the expenditure for
armaments and demanded that the min
listers should work instead for peace and
fraternity. The premier, NJ. Staaf, re-
piled that in spite OF his deep sympathy
in the matter of international peace he
was absolutely convinced that the
Swedish people would be compelled to
make new and great sacrifices for the
defense of the country. The government,
however, he added, was not inclined to
accede to the demands for prolongation
of the service in the infantry until after
the general election.
On Friday there was great demon
stration by 10000 small land owners
and farmers from every part of the
Kingdom in favor OF the increase of
Swedish armaments. King Gustave on
that occasion said that the problem of
defence was one which must be solved
without loss OF time. His speech is re-
ported to have led to serious trouble in
the cabinet, the members of which in
timated their desire Saturday to resign.

mics Wong said he did not know but he

NO SIGNS OF SETTLEMENT.
Union Men Are Mostly Walking in Barre
and Montpelier.

All is quiet on the Barre & Montpelier
Traction < Power Co.'S interurban line.
Since the strike OF all car men employed
on the line was announced early last
Wednesday morning, officials and en-
ployes of the ear barns have operated
the cars and service schedule between
the two cities has been maintained with
as much regularity as possible. Thus
far nothing has occurred to encourage
friends OF both the road and the strik-
ers in the hope that satisfactory adj
justment will be reached. In their de-
mands, the car men remain obdurate and
the company shows no disposition to
capitulate. Daily, the car men meet in
Montpelier with their organizer, J. H.
Reardon OF Worcester, Mass. Saturday
they drew the pay due them and in
sisted that they be paid on the old scale
instead of the schedule offered by the
company after the car men made known
their demands.
When interrogated this forenoon, Man
ager II. ID. Larrabee denounced roundly
the persons who have been giving cir
culation to the rumor that the company
refuses absolutely to arbitrate. He in
timated that other statements of his
have been misinterpreted and while he
did not declare in so many words that
the company would welcome arbitration.
he let it be known that the powers back
of the road are not by any means com
mitted to policy of non-arbitration.
The official says that the best of feel
ing still prevails between the operatives
and their late employees As long as
the present arrangements for handling
traffic are at all practical, the company

PRINTED ON TICKET
English Court Of Appeals
Sustains Verdict for
Irish Farmer

London, Feb. 9.--The court of appeals
to-day dismissed the appeal Of the White
Star Steamship company from the deci-
sion of the kings bench court, declar
ing that an illegal condition was printed
on the tickets exempting the company
from liability for loss by a passenger
even through the negligence Of the com
pany's servants. The question was
brought in the test case of an Irish
farmer, who claimed damages for the
loss of his son on the Titanic.
Lord Justice Sir Rolami Vaughn Will
liams, in delivering the judgment. said
he thought the danger to the Titanic
was neither unforeseen nor unforseeable
and that practice did not justify the yes
sci in maintaining its course and speed
in view OF the warnings received.
