THIRD LETTER HINTS
AT RAILWAY STRIKE
Utilities Commission Receives Another
Anonymous Communication from
Dissatisfied EMPLOYEES.

A third anonymous letter threaten
ing a strike of the motormen and con-
ductors of the Washington Railway
and Electric Company unless alleged
unreasonable working conditions are
corrected was received by the Public
Utilities Commission yesterday.
1t is probable no action will be
taken by the commission as long as
he letters continue to come without
signatures 1t is the belief of the
commission that the letters are the
w ork of a small group of disgruntled
employees. The second communication,
received Friday, apparently was in a
woman's handwriting. although it
purported to be from "one of US men"
Conversation with some of the men
on the different lines brought out the
fact that the majority of them know
nothing of the origin of the mysteri-
Gus threats and appeals.
The letter received yesterday denies
the statement of officials of the
company hat the men are satisfied.
II read i'm part:
Il will write and tell you about the
,ettor that the Washington and Elec-
irir officials have written you con-
working The company says the men
are satisfied. That is not true. We
are much dissatisfied. and if there is
not a change shortly we will find
the cause"

WILSON WILL CONFER
WITH JERSEY LEADERS
Democratic Candidates. for Congress
May Be Discussed with Gov. Fielder
and Chairman Grosscup.

President Wilson will have an impor-
tant political conference this week with
Gov. Fielder and State Chairman Gross
cup. OF New Jersey. with a view OF iron
ing out some Of the difficulties in his
home State WHICH were revealed in the
recent electionsl The President is said
to have in mind to start almost imms-
diately q movement TO solidify the Jersey
Democracy in order to assure not only
that the State will be in the Democratic
column in the next national election. but
also that the State ticket will be elected
In 1916.
One OF the chief tasks which face the
leaders of the Jersey Democracy is the
adjustment of the ambitions of the vari-
Gus aspirants to the SenatOrship. Gov.
Fielder has been mentioned as a prob
able candidate. while Senator Martin Is
n candidate to succeed himself.
The Presidents friends are fearful that
he NAV be hampered by having a Repub-
iiCan House or Senate returned next year
and they have resolved to give the fullest
measure of attention to the Congressional!
tights as well as to the national campaign
itself.

Gen. Gales was trying to arrange in
seeking to bring them across American
