8 HURT AS QUEENS
STRIKECONTINUES.
Half Of Company's l5S
Cars Are Operated Until
Nightfall.

Eight men were injured yesterday as
a direct result of the car strike that
has tied up more than half of the New
York and Queens County Railways 15S
cars. One loyal trolleyman was at
tackled by a mob of strikers; a striker
was beaten with controller iron by
a motorman who refused to leave his
post; five were injured when the motor
box of a car operated by a green
motorman blew up, and an eighth was
run down and hurt by car guided by
a strikebreaker.
At 7 o'clock last night every car be-
longing TO the company was ordered
into the barns. Daniel J. Haley, presi-
dent of the striking Garments union in
Queens County, prophesies that his
men will win their fight within forty
eight hours.
Police interference in the Queens
County strike came for the first time
yesterday afternoon, when a strikers
banner bearing the following legend
was pulled down by patrolmen from
the front of the Jackson Park Hotel:
mo need for President William o.
Wood to strike. He gets $4,000 a

81 hope it is" he muttered.
The police were not happy, but they
were keeping order. Uptown, along
Madison Avenue, crowd of strike
sympathizers pressed around car,
and there were cries of "scab." A
changing patrol wagon drove through,
spraying policemen in all directions,
and in two minutes there wasn't any
crowd. But even riding in a patrol is
not much rest after fifteen or eighteen
hours on the cars or the streets.

ride IN them to the st. George ferry.
All Fares to Strikebreakers.
The strikebreaker motormen and
conductors did not take the trouble TO
ring up a single fare during the day.
Under a mutual understanding between
the men and the company the conduct
ors pocketed every nickel they col
lected, making an equal division with
their motormen at the close of the
days work. On the more important
lines the two men in charge of each
car had between $50 and S25 to share.
At 7:45 o'clock last night the last
trolley car on the island was run into
the barns. AS on Sunday, the opening
day of the strike, hundreds of com
muters arriving at st. George between
s and 10 o'clock found themselves with
the option of walking several miles to
their homes or of paying exorbitant
taxicab farces. Due TO the constant
rIoting, many residents of the bor-
ough preferred long walks even while
cars were in operation rather than
facing the perils of flying stones.
Manager Rand asserted in the after
noon that he had held no conference
with the strikers through the day and
that he did not contemplate any con-
ference to-day. A conference between
Mayor Mitchell and the Public Service
Commission this afternoon on the
Staten Island strike is expected to de-
velop some terms Of settlement accept

events had occurred during the last
few months making renewal OF these
relations advisable, and the calling OF
a congress embracing the delegates OF
Allied nations had been urged, with
a view TO preparing for the resump-

To-days session Of the council was
attended by the Socialist ministers
Marcel Sembat and Jules Guesde, and
BY Albert Thomas, Under Secretary OF
State for War and Munitions.
The chief discussion centred on the
general policy Of the Socialists toward
national defence and the prosecution
Of the war. Resolutions proposed by
the majority declared that the Social

vaded territories of France are liber-

established as free and Independent

They also denounced cooperation
with the Socialistic theory that coun-
