the situation and mako q settlement IN
case satisfactory wages are granted
there Ia little doubt at tho present ume
that a strike will be averted.
This means that the tri-cities VIII DC
walking a week from today. II this Is
the case II will be the first street car
strike Davenport has ever seen.
The situation Is made doubly seri-
GUS by the large number of arsenal en-
ployes who now have special service
thru the street car system and by the
factory districts of West Davenport
Bettendorf, Moline and East Moline,
all OF which are dependent on street
car transportation.
Labor Problem Grave.
Thousands of workmen employed at
the arsenal or in the factories on the
Illinois side of the river live in DaVen-
port. With the employees at the Bet
tendorf steel mills and in other factor
les this problem may assume the ma
ture OF a local labor crisis.
There are hundreds OF these work
men who will not walk from the nome
to the shop and back home after the
hard Gays work is over. They Will
quit work first. This condition Is
bound to have a serious affect on 10
cal factories and may possibly result
in a walkout of hundreds of working
men in the big Iowa and Illinois plants.
Several tri-city unions have taken
definite stand on the matter and have
told the street car men that II they
strike a sympathetic walk out in oth-
er trades will follow. w'widespread
this situation will turn out to be Is only
a matter of conjecture now.
Hinges On Commission.
The entire situation hinges on
action of the Illinois public utility COM
mission which few weeks ago turned
down the Tri- City Railway Company
request for a 7-cent fare on the Illinois
lines. It is certainty that manufac-
turers OF the tri-cities will make strong
representations to the commission foi
a rehearing on this decision.
It Is also possible that Davenport
manufacturers and commercial inter
ests will take hand in the situation
and do everything possible to secure
rehearing which may result in higher
fare for the company.

EMPLOYEES OF STREET CAR sYS.
TEN VOTE TO QUIT
WORK.
GIVE COMPANY TEN DAYS
TO MEET WAGE DEMANDS
Hour Efforts TO Avert Walk
out Almost Observation-Disclosures
Man Suggests Plan to Prevent
Traffic Tie-up--Would Have Men
Await Decision Of Voters.

Des Moines, July 25.-Employes OF
the local street car system early this
morning voted to go on strike. The
company was given ten days to meet
their terms %"
1t seemed likely yesterday afternoon
that the strike would be averted, large
ly thru the suggestion and pacifying
efforts OF John w. Bah. commercial
reporter fer a Des Moines newspaper,
who achieved q measure Of success
where franiically working civic COM
mittess had failed.
Mr.. Ball. who was adjutant OF the
16Sth infantry overseas, upon his own
initiative, went to j. b. Wiley, business
agent of the car mems union, with a
suggestion that the men accept a wage
increase effective for two months. the
question to be left open following the
expiration of that period. This would
give the city administration time to
call special election upon the scent
fare issue, upon which the wage in
crease hinges.
Proposal Favored BY All.
Mr.. Wiley accepted the idea, where
upon Mr.. Ball proposed the same plan
to Emil G. Schmidt, president of the
city railway company. Mr.. Schmidt
favored 1t. The matter then was plac-
ed before James y. Weaver. president
OF the chamber Of commerce, who i'm
mediatcly set the wheels of arbitration
in motion.
The men shrank from striking, Mr..
Schmidt didn't want a strike, and the
people of Des Moines, remembering the
days OF Aug. 1913, when the city was
completely tractionless for two days
while crowds besiegei the office Of
Little Jimmy Harrigan, then traction
manager. with brickbats, certainly were
not anxious for a street car tieup.
People Must Decide.
The car men are receiving 43. 45 and
~ cents an hour. depending upon
length Of service. They demanded So.
90 and So cents an hour, claiming that
it is impossible to maintain a decent
standard Of living on the present
wages. The company. in turn. insist
ed that it could pay no wage increase
unless rates Of fare were advanced to s
cents. The city council completed sc
circle by taking the position that I'M
der the terms Of the compauy's fran
chise fares could not be increased
without,approval by popular vote. An
election and the preliminary red tape
would require month.
Mr.. Balrs happy suggestion was
based on a proposition Of allowing the
city sixty days in which to decide, by
election or otherwise, whether its oit-
liens would pay a s-csnt car fare.

INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
THREATENS, SAYS PRIEST
Rev. E. A. Hannah Lauds Gompers'
;. Labor Leadership and Warns
| Against Foreign Element.

That every man who Is employed
should join labor union; that the
various striking bodies are enemies
not only of law and order, but also
of the labor cause itself; that a good
policeman is a noble member of the
community. but a striking policeman
traitor and deserter: that Wash
ington's chief of police is a good lead
er; and that nothing but rare states
manship and skillful tact can prevent
an early industrial revolution. were
some of the declarations made by Rev.
Eugene A. Hannah, rector of st. Mar
tins Church, in sermon to the Holy
Name Society, at it's monthly meeting
last night in st. Martins.
There are ten million foreigners
lighting the fuses of anarchy and So
cial discomfort in our fair land" said
Father Hannah, land unless something
IS quickly done our nation will rock
from end to end with industrial explo-
sions. The apostles of discomfort, hav-
ing at length secured some power
within the American Federation of
Labor, are now seeking to overthrow
the splendid and conservative leader
ship of Samuel Gompers and to sub
stitute a leadership that would be sub
versive to all social order. The future
of labor hangs in the balance.
Il am for labor. / have fought the
labor mans fights through all the
years of my priesthood. I stand with
true labor leaders like Gompers, who
are striving for the accomplishment
of high purpose. And l urge upon
every one of you to fight for good and
worthy leadership in labor unions and
to defeat the sinister plot of alien
workers to make the union the enemy
OF society"
Father Hannah condemned the for
eign element which, he declared, is
responsible for the disordered condi-
ticns in the steel and coal industries
and among the longshoremen.
