SITUATION IS
NOT CHANGED
NO IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENTS
IN THE STRIKE.
Company Opens Up the South Side
Line nntl Puts on Two More Cars.
But Thero Is No Appreciable In
creaBo In. the Number of Persons
Biding Strikers Pass Resolutions
Urging Municipal Ownership of
the Trolley Lines Rev. Dr. Mc
Lcod Speaks Out.
There was no change of moment in
the general situation nf the car strike,
yesterday, and no very serious disorder
occurred. Knell side continues In Its
policy of holding out for the other to
make advances for a settlement, nnd
neither gives any Indication of weak
ening. The company opened tip the South
Side line nnd put on two more cars.
Tho strikers engaged a few more band
wagon!) to help keep the public from
patronizing the cars, nnd succeeded,
through its visiting cninmlttee, in
having various labor organisations en
dorse the strike and offer llnanclal sup
port. There was no very noticeable Increase
In the number of persons patronizing
the cars, although at certain hours of
tho day the Green Itldgo and Peters
burg lines had ti fairly liberal patron
age. Reports were current hist evening to
tho effect that there is discontent
among some of the imported men, be
cause they have been given runs which
produce no opportunity for commis
sions, nnd, according to the reports, a
largo number of the discontented ones
arc threatening to leave on Saturday,
when they got their pay.
Five 'busses have been secured from
Wllkes-Hnrro and will be run today.
The strikers will run them themselves.
The local lodge of tho Iron Moulders'
union, and Mine Workers' Locals SG2,
of Green Itidge, nnd 1GS1, of Providence,
passed resolutions last night endorsing
the strike and offering the strikers
moral and llnanclal support.
There was some disorder yesterday,
attendant upon the opening up of the
South Side line. Obstructions worn
placed on the tracks before and after
the passage of the cars, and near Genet
street efllglcs of General Manager Sllli
man and Agent Morgan Sweeney were
hung from a pole. The names of a
number of the alleged perpetrators of
these disorderly acts were secured nnd
warrants for their arrest will he issued
today.
MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.
At a meeting of the executive board
of tho strikers, yesterday, resolutions
were passed urging upon the city offi
cials the necessity of the municipality
securing the ownership of the trolley
lines to insure, n. decent service nnd
avoid strikes. Copies of the resolutions
have been forwardeel to Recorder Con
nell and the two branches of councils.
The receipts of the railway company
at this time of the year average about
? 1,800 a day. The company is paying
$250 n. dny in wages; $100 a- day for the
keeping of the imported men, and prob
ably $100 a day, or a dollar per capita,
to the Drunimond agency, which fur
nisheH the imported men. The strikers
say that the wages of tho men on
strike, regulars, extras and barn men,
numbering a.'O, averages $1.30 a day per
man. This would make their losses run
up to about $4,Vi u tiny. AVhat the busi
ness men are losing can not be esti
mated. Leaving the business men out
ot consideration, the strike thus far
has cost $30,000.
A mass meeting, under the auspices
of the strikers, will be held at the old
nrmory tomorrow night. Among tho
speakers will he Howard II. Caldwell,
national organizer of the American
Federation of Labor, who was presi
dent of the Building Trades council of
Philadelphia during the memorable
struggle for the establishment of the
eight-hour day in thnt city.
Magistrate AV. S. Millar waited on
President Judge Kd wards yesterday
morning and Informed him that seven
boys under It! years of age had been
arrested hy Special Agent Stephen
Dyer, of the Sernnton Hallway com
pany. He asked him If the cases would
be h"ard by one of t he judges.
MOTHERS NOT PLEASED.
Judge Edwards replied that he has
not yet had time to provide a method
for the hpurlug of the cases of chil
dren under the age of 1C years, as pro
vided hy the juvenile court bill and
directed the magistrate to dispose of
such cases himself for the present.
A hearing was conducted In the af
ternoon when Special Agent Dyer of
fered evidence to show that the boys
had obstructed the tracks nnd had been
caught in tho act. The magistrate
lined each of the following hoys $i
and costs: Fred Jones, John Clarke,
Michael Farrell, Hurry Llsk, Harry
Goodman, Helijaniln Jones and George
Mailen.
Several anxious mothers were pres
ent ut the healing and paid their boys'
lines. They seemed all Inclined to the
belief that It was "downright injus
tice" to arrest the hoys for obstruct
ing the tracks. "They only done It for
fun," said one of thent and the others
echoed her sentiments. Not so with
the father of the Llsk boy, however,
"You get homo just as fast us you
can got," he said to hln offspring as
ho paid the nuiglstiato the fine, "and
prepare yourself for my arrival."

The ofistrttothitf of the street rail
way tracks has made a deal of extra
work for the bureau of highways and
sewers. The obstructions placed cut
the tracks, When removed by the rail
way company's employes, are thrown
on the street, alongside the track, and
htivo to he cleared nway by the city.
Director of Public Works Roche ban
been supervising tho removal of theso
obstruction for the past few diii's and
mild yesterday that he has had a num
ber of wagons and men continually em
ployed at this work ever since the
strike began.
"There Is eonsl,iint danger," snld he,
"of accidents to persons driving along
tlie streets In the outskirts and run
ning Into one of these obstructions.
It's unfortunate that these boya can't
realize that they do no good to the
strikers' cause by this sort of thing,"
Scouts of tho striking cur men watch
the passengers on the curs and when
ever one Is recognized the name Is re
ported to hendriunrters. A letter Is sent
to the person reported that Is Intended
to prevent a repetition of the "offense."
Rev. Dr. Jnmcs MeLcod. pastor of the
First Presbyterian church, was one of
those reported. The following corre
spondence was the result:

been a friend of laboring men, nml 1 rMccni il
nn honor to be reiKoned as one of their litim
her. In the present tase, however, I am per
suaded that tho course pursued by jour orR.in
i.,ition U most unwise, and tliaL it U without
tlie shadow of a shade of ineilt. Your own
senc ol honor ought to convince you of jour
error, and j'our 0rp1ni7.1l ion outjlit to recede, at
.nice, from tho fal-c po-dtiou it has taken. You
cannot convince the eiulblc cltizcm of Scran

1 deem it my duly to say to you, veiy fiankly

Some of jour vulgar svmpathizcrs fhow their

citizens who dare to exercise their linhla as
flee Aniciip.ini. Of cour-e, the scurrilous con
duct of these hcnilan.m.hist'i does not meet
Willi your approval although I have not hcaid
of any slep3 bcint; taken to prevent it, either
by jour oriranir.ition. or by tho lecorder and po
lice of our city wIiofp duty it i-, to piotecf
