TO CONFER
Committee of Strikers
Will Meet Manager
Silliman Today.
HIS REPLY UNFAVORABLE
Ho Answered tho Men's Second
Proposition by Saying That the
Company Would Not Consider Any
Proposition from Them Until They
Returned to Work, and Wanted to
Know if They Would Work Today.
Committee Decided to Reject His
Proposition Only a Few Cars Run
Yesterday No Men Have Been
Imported as Yet.
Tho street railway men's strike Is
still on, and there does not appear to
be much hope for an Immediate settle
ment, though a conference has been
nrrniiRod tor this morning between
General Manager Silliman, of the com
pany, and K. W. Clark, jr., of Phila
delphia, one of tho directors, on the
one side and a sub-commlttco ot the
strikers on the other.
The principal development In the
situation yesterday was the receipt ot
a letter by the strikers from General
Manager .Silliman, announcing that the
company would refuse to consider their
proposition of Tues'dity or any other
proposition until they returned to
wotk, and giving them until midnight
to stntc whether or not they would
take out their regular cars this morn
ing. This letter was sent in reply to the
strikers' letter, written on Tuesday,
containing a proposal to refer tho
whole question for arbitration to lit.
Rev. Bishop M. J. Hobnn, or some
priest deputized by him, he to decide
upon the mode of procedure to be fol
lowed, in the arbitration proceedings,
and withdrawing the former demand
that the two discharged conductors bo
reinstated pending the result of tho
arbitration.
Jilt. SILLIMAX'S LKTTKH.
Tho following Is the full text of Mr.
Slllimau's letter, which was delivered
to the executive committee at 7.110
o'clock last night by his private secre
tary, Mr. P.lelly:
suanton, I'a., Oil. ', Will.
Oeurne Kapler, Scvieluiy Dhl.-ion His, A. A. ot
Sliept It.iilwiiy Kmploxps, Seranlon, I'a.
Dear Sir: Wc ale in receipt of jour letter of
Oir. 1, and have carefully noled it content'..
'Hip proposition Mihmilted to your organization
in our letler of Sept. 30, was m.ulo by this com
pany with the hono.-t intention of pndeavorinff to
meet the ililllcullie.s of the situation and thin
aoid a strike. The mrmbeia of jour organisa
tion lift our employ aftpr declining our oiler to
aibllrate, and we cannot now eon-ider this or any
other piopoiltion until alter they have returned
to uoik.
We niibt llidefore ak your committee to notify
us bcfoic 12 o'clock tonight, if it is the inten
tion of our employes to return to woik on
Tliuisd.iy, Oel. '', in time for their l'PKiilar runs.
OtliprIp we shall comider that they do not
intend to do so.
Yours duly,
Sci.mlon hiihvay Company,
Uy Krauk Silliman, jr.. Hernial Manager.
The committee went Into session
about S.I10 o'clock and remained in con
sultation for about an hour and a half.
At the end of that time it was an
nounced that the members of tho com
mittee were unanimously opposed to
having the men go back to work be
fore receiving some definite reply to
their proposition.
"Air. Silliman must labor under the
Impression that we are crazy," said
one of the committeemen. "Wo will
not agree to accept this proposition for
a moment. The Idea that we should
allow the men to go back to work, now
that they are out on strike, before re
ceiving some definite answer to the
questions which precipitated tho strike,
is absurd. This isn't simply the view
of tho committee. We've sounded
every man around the place and they
are all unanimous In declaring the
proposition to be a ridiculous one.
"You will notice that even if wo did
accept the proposition and go back to
work, there Is nothing In Mr. Slllimau's
letter which binds him to even con
sider our grievances. 'Ho says that tho
company will not consider any propo
sition fioni the men until they return
to work, but he doesn't promise to con
sider one If wo do go back. The letter
is evasive on this point and purposely
so, wo believe."
SUNT A COMMITTKl-:.
The committee didn't see tit to send
word to Mr. Silliman slating whether
or not they would return to work this
morning. Instead, a sub-committee
was sent to the Hotel Jcrniyu to ar
range, If possible, for a conference
sometime before midnight. Mr. Silli
man sent word to tho committee,
through his private secrolnry, that ho
would give the matter consideration,
and told them to go to tho company's
olllcn In half an hour and ho would
send them word.
Tho committee- went to the oillco at
10.110 o'clock nnd were again mel by
ltlelly, who said ho would have to sco
Mr. Silliman again. Ho did so, and
roturncil about 11 o'clock with the an
uoiiuccmnnt that the general manager
had retired, after deciding to put oft
tho proposed conference until this
morning. When this word was im
parted to tho executive committee, tho
following letter was prepared and
mulled to Mr. Hllllnmu:
Suanton, I'a., O.d. ;, pini.
Frank Silliman, jr., tienetal Manager Suanton
Hallway loiup.my,
Dear Sir: Your irply to our coniniiinlealion
of the fut instant leieiieil at a lain hour, and
after dellbciatiou by tho coinniilteo I am In.
sliuiled in an.ncr to request a coiiferenio at
your r.ulicsl comrnlenie, at whhh it U hopid
that nunc tatidaclory adjustment, may hu if.
I'cUcd.
It ha3 1'ieii iiupailcd to 11.1 Hut a conferenee
may be had at 0 o'clock toiiionow iiiornlnt;, at
widen liino a siuYiominlttep will wait on you
at your ollke and the lonfereiiic will bo held
at your pleasure.
Very respectfully joins,
(!. O, Kuglcr, Scirelary,
It was stated officially that ut tho
conference the members of tho com
mitted will Insist upon the acceptance
of their proposition of Tuesday nnd
will refuse to permit tho men to re
turn to work until tho company makes
a dcclslvo unswer of some sort.
NO NIOVV PROPOSITION,
"Wo will have no now proposition to
submit," said one of tho committee,
men. "Wo stand by our proposal of
Tuesday and no other. AVo plncerely
hope that wc will bo able to make the
company olllcluls sco the justice' of our
,;U$js . . 1
position. Perhaps there have been mis
understandings ott both side?. It there
have been wo hope that matters will
bo fully explained."
The tlo-up yesterday was nbotit as
complete ns It could possibly bo. Two
cars manned by Dispatchers llemdon,
Brown, Hehuiidn iilitl McTaggert made
trips to Diiniiiure and West Scrnuton
on n regular schedule for the purpose
of carrying tho mulls In fulfillment nf
the company' contract with the gov
ernment. A few passengers were cur
ried on each trip.
Two car were run on the Green
Rldgo .Suburban and Petersburg Hues
between the bouts of ft and 7 p. m, and
were crowded with passengers on ev
ery (tip. They wore manned by .Su
perintendent Pattetson, several ot the
ofllco employees and a volunteer who
appeared at tho company's oillco about
5 o'clock and offered to assist In run
ning otto of the curs.
As far as could be learned there was
no disorder of any kind yesterday, ex
cept tho blocking of tho tracks In alt
parts of tho city. The tracks on tho
Providence line arc blocked with all
kinds of obstructions all the way from
Carbon street and the same condition
exists nil the way tip the valley. This
sort ot thing Is done In tho majority
of cases by small boys, who eeem to
take n huge delight In It.
At a meeting of the executive com
mittee held yesterday nfternoon ways
and means for the conducting of tho
strike were mapped out. Committees
were appointed to watch incoming
trains ami from now on, day and night,
there will be pickets posted at the
Lackawanna, Jersey CentrnI and Dela
ware and Hudson stations and at tho
upper end ot Lackawanna, avenue.
These pickets (ire instructed to look
out for the arrival of Imported men
and to Immediately notify headquar
ters If any do arrive.
NO MEN IMPORTED.
Tito company has not yet made any
attempt to import any men but Gen
eral Manager Silliman said yesterday
afternoon that the company would
make every effort to run as many cars
a possible. Ho would not say wheth
er any men would bo Imported.
"I have said that wo will run our cars
and 1 propose to keep my word," said
he.
13. M. Clarke, jr., one of the board
of directors of tho company, arrived
In tho city last evening about 6
o'clock to advise with General Mana
ger Silliman on the situation. He was
In conversation with tho latter for
some time last night, but denied him
self to newspaper men.
PLAYED FOOTBALL IN RAIN
Wyoming Seminary Was Too Much
for Local Foot Ball Players.
Line-up of Teams.
Wyoming seminary played all
around the High schol eleven ut Ath
letic Park yesterday afternoon, scor
ing three touch downs with compara
tive ease. The teams played in a
drenching rain, and the contest lacked
brilliancy and snap. The boys rolled
around In the mud, and Scranton
seemed to lack the weight to go up
against such a strong eleven as the
seminary boys.
High school won the toss and took
the upper goal. In the kick off Wyom
ing took the ball and steadily forced
it over the lino for a touchdown in a
few minutes. They failed to kick the
goal, however. Score, 5-0. ,
In the next kick off, Tropp sent the
ball in close proximity to the Wyo
ming goal post, und seminary took it
unci successfully carried it the full
length of the field for a touchdown,
with slight interference. The goal was
missed. Score, 10-0.
In the next kick off Wyoming took
the ball at tho twenty-yard line, and
made a gain of ten yards. They again
forced the ball Scrantonward for over
5 yards and lost it on a fumble.
High school tried for a double pass
but failed, and seminary held thein
back with comparative ease. After a
slight gain High school lost the bull
on foul Interference.
The seminary boys failed to make a
gain and lost the ball to Scranton,
when Powell made a run of about
twenty yards, but was forced back
on a. stolen ball. The first half ended
with the score 10-0.
In tho second half Wyoming took the
ball and kicked to High school's thirty-live
yard line. The latter seemed to
be unable to hold their opponents and
Wyoming again forced tho ball over
the line for a touchdown, but failed
on the goal. Score, 13-0. The line up
was as follows:

MOURNING IN
MANY A FAMILY
Precious Live That night
Have Been Saved
If Paine's Celery Compound
Had Early. Been Used
Instead or Putting Faith
Worthless Cnrc-Alls.
In
There should be new legislation
against tho exercise of criminal Ignor
ance in times of sickness.
Many a good family Is In mourning
today for tho loss of a relative who,
when first the symptoms of serious
sickness appeared, niado the fatal mis
take of simply taking tho wrong medi
cine. s soon think ot stopping the sun
with u wavo of tho hand as ot stopping
the onward course of disease In the hu
man system with any ot the vurlotis
patent concoctions under patent names
so numerously in tho market today.
Thcro is but one remedy known to
medicine that can bring new life and
vigor to worn-out nerves, restore to
their normal condition tho functions
that depend upon nerves nnd brnln,
properly nourished and fed, that cures
sleeplessness, allays indigestion, sends
healthy blood coursing through the
veins, tones up the system, and makes
the weak strong again, and that Is
Paine's celery compound the discov
ery of tho greatest of America's many
great physicians.
Paine's celery compound Is not a pat
ent medicine. It Is tho one prepared
remedy that lias the unqualified en
dorsement of those physicians whose
knowledge and ability have made their
names known not only among their
immediate neighbors, but throughout
tho country.
No other prepared remedy was ever
recommended publicly or privately by
the head of tho medical department of
a groat university. No other remedy
ever had the hearty, bona tide endorse
ment of tho wives and households of
the wealthiest as well as the poorer
citizens In every community.
A single bottle.to bo had of any repu
table druggist, will prove ite unequaled
merit to any family where today some
member suffers from the much-to-bo-feared
beginnings of what before the
winter Is past, unless attended to
promptly, may prove to be the final
break-down.
"Paine's celery compound," says
Hon. It. L. McKee, of Jefferson City,
one of the soundest men in public life
In Missouri, "Paine's celery compound
is so well known that I feel that a
recommendation from me can add very
little weight, but I do wish to grate
fully recommend It to those who have
never been so fortunate as to try It."
There Is no season so favorable as
this for taking advantage of tho won
derfully renovating virtues of this
remedy. Don't begin the winter in
poor health. Nature does little at this
season to rejuvenate unaided the
fagged-out brain or to restore tc
health the diseasedi nervee. Paine's
celery compound nourishes perfectly
tho bodily system. It cures diseases
of the Important organs of digestion,
