"Swing System'' Is Abolished and Ten Hours Will Constitute a Day's Work for Philadelphia Street Car Men. Philadephia, Pa.—"The strike lias been settled. The men will receive 22 cents an hour and 10 hours will constitute a day's work." This statement, emanating from C. O. Pratt, chairman of the executive committee of the Amalgamated Association of Street Railway Employes, the leader of the striking motormen and conduc tors, followed by the deportation of the 450 strike breakers who came here from New York, ends the strike of the employes of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Co. The men go back to work immediately. The termination of the trouble be tween the company and its employes was brought about primarily by State Senator James P. MeNichol, the Re publican leader of this city, at confer ences with I lie traction officials and the strikers' representatives. These conferences were followed by addition al meetings. The delegates chosen by the strikers met Pratt later in the day and discussed, the proposition which had been made by the traction people. Some of the delegates insist ed upon 25 cents per hour, while others thought 22 cents an hour and a 10- hour day was a fair compromise. After being in session nearly all day the men agreed to accept 22 cents an hour. The old "swing system" lias been abolished; 10 hours will consti tute a day's work; all employes will bo permitted to purchase their uni forms in the open market; all future differences are to be adjusted between the company and a grievance commit tee chosen by the employes. If. after an investigation by the city controller of the books of the company, it can be shown that more than 22 cents an hpur can be paid without crippling the finances of the Rapid Transit Co., then the men will insist upon a further ad vance in wages. TRADE CONDITIONS IMPROVE Increased Orders, Expanding Produc tion, Higher Prices and Wages Shown in Iron and Steel. New York City.—R. (1. Dtin & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: Every test by which trade conditions are determined records improvement. In the iron and steel trade the prog ress made is, indeed, extraordinary, and again does this branch of industry give a signal proof of its power to rise out of the depths of the depression with wonderful rapidity. Increased or ders, expanding production, higher prices and wages, and in some lines records approaching even the high figures before the panic—such are the reports that now come from the trade every week. Thus the recent progress making toward full business recovery in the United States is most notable, and it is facilitated by favoring financial conditions. The effects of the late crisis are still to be seen in the large volume of commercial defaults, al though this seems a passing condition, as the aggregate of these in May was the smallest of any month of this year.
