Devlne Was the Speaker of the Evening and Addresses Were Delivered by President John Mitchell, President W. D. Mahon, of the Street Car Men's Interna tional Association and Three of the Delegates to the Federation Convention. There wan 11 mass meeting at tho old Armory on Adams avenue last night called for the purpose of again enlightening tlie public as lo the ciiusi! of tho street car strike and particular ly as to the Interview of Tuesday be tween Manager Frank Sllllmnn, Jr., of tho Scranton Hallway company and V, D. Million, president of (lie Internation al Association of Amalgamated Street Hallway Kinployes and John Mitchell, president of the Mine Workers. The last named two were appointed by the convention of the American Federation of Labor to make an effort to settle the differences between tho company and Its employes. The armory was com fot tably filled, there being a large num ber of ladles !n the audience. John Devlne was the chairman of the evening and after stating that tlie meeting was for (he purpose of hear ing something further about the trou ble between the Scranton Hallway company and Its employes and the great Inconvenience that has followed In Its unke. Introduced John Mitchell. When the applause that had greeted President Mitchell subsided he said lie could speak to them but for a few min utes for he had to go to Providence to attend n meeting of the members of his own craft, the miners. COMPANY RESPONSIHL12. "I don't know whether you were right or wrong when this strike began," he said, "but I do know that the re fusal of the Scranton Hallway com pany to confer with you places the bur den of the responsibility for this condi tion of affairs upon that company. 'It has come to my notice that the business men and professional men have been building up an organization with an Idea of breaking this strike and breaking up this boycott of the cars. 1 want to say on this occasion for the 30,000 members of my organi zation that they will not patronize tho ears as long as the company refuses to meet with its men or their represen tatives with reference to this trouble. "This strike means more than the de feat of the men who ore now engaged in it. I know that If the street car men are defeated now some other organ ization will be next selected as a vic tim. I know not but that the mine workers may be the one against whom tho fight will be waged. This strike Is not alone the strike of the street car men. It is the concern of us all. "The company has Its ctirs tunning. It has them manned and if the busi ness men and professional men of this 'ity think that their interests tire to be best subserved by combining to break this strike then indeed tire they blind to their own Interests. If they think the patronage of the Pcranton Railway company Is the most desirable thing for them to have then let them have that patronage. OPPOSED TO STRIKES. "1 am opposed lo a strike until every means of maintaining peace Is ex hausted but when tills is done and the workers have no oilier choice, I say strike and when you do, strike like the miners a year ago. Strike until you win. As far as I can speak for the wage earners of this vicinity they will not patronize the street cars until the Scranton Railway company meets and confers with your representatives. The fact that they refuse to meet you is to me indisputable evidence that they fear an Investigation; that you are right and they are wrong. Keep up this strike uhtll the company concedes your right to confer. Keep It up but be law abiding and I believe you will win. I am told no mine workers has entered a ear since the strike betran and iis far as I am concerned not one of them will until this strike is honor able settled." Mr. Mitchell said that Mr. Million would give them the details of the in terview with Manager Sllllman. SV. D. Mahon, president of the Inter national Association of Amalgamated Street Railway workers, was the sec ond speaker. He opened his address by reviewing the relations of the street railway mpn with the local company since tho strike of one year ago, le ferrlng extensively to the nagging which he iiIIcbcs the men were sub jected to throuirh the desire of tlie company to get even. With reference to tho Incidents that led up to and fol lowed the strike, Mr. Mahon said the kind of arbitration offered by the com pany could not be accepted, INTERVIEW WITH SILLI.MAN. He then told of tlie interview with Sllllman, who, ho said, propounded a lot of questions to them and asked them to answer yes or no, Mitchell re plied: "I did not come here to be sub jected to tho tactics of any little police court. 1 haven't stolen anything." Mr. Sllllman declined to talk with (hem as the representatives of any labor organization, and when they asked him to suggest some way of end ing tho present trouble, lie said ho hud nothing to suggest, and gave (hem (o understand that the Interview was at an end. Mr. Million said they were willing lo refer (lie whole mutter to a board to be made up of one man selected by (hem, 0110 selected by tho company, these two (o name a thlid. No matter what the decision of this board was, (hey would accept It as flnal, Tlie speaker went on to say that this Is (ho (IfilU oC organized eupKal against organized labor, because (ho latter means better wages and better condi tions. He declined that tho business men who are banding togedier (o break (he strike ara (raveling 011 very dun. gerotts ground, Other addresses were made by S. n. Niece, mayor ot North llaltlmore, O.j Jerome Jones, of A(lan(a, CJa.; W. II. Clay, of Petersburg, Va delegates to tho federation convention now In ses sion here.

At a special meeting of the Scranton police foi co it special committee was appointed, comprising John Sultry, John Thomas, Kred Kurltis, Victor Sartor ami George Jones, to arrange for awnrdlng (ho contract to the most responsible bidder among the merchant tailors of tho city for making (ho pa (rolmon'H uniforms In the future. A number of merchant tailors have Inferred that they would like to take (ho contract, and the patrolmen have decided lo receive bids for 'the work, and the contract will be awarded (o (he lowest responsible bidder. Sealed proposals Tor making the spring uniforms will be received by .Secretary (lonrge Jones, and the bid ders must base their estimate on (ho best metropolitan police cloth, up-to-tlalc workmanship, lit and finish. None but responsible merchants are expected to bid on the contract. CLOTHES LINE THIEF. Identified by Papers Which He Dropped from His Pocket. William Horn, a painter, residing In Kressler court, was arraigned before Alderman Howe yesterdny, charged with stripping a line In Mrs. Rrown's yard, at 114 Mulberry stree(, of some valuable clothing. In his ilight Horn dropped some papers from his pocket, which were placed in the hands of Detecdve Lona Day, and through them his Identity was revealed. A search of the ac cused's house also revealed some of the stolen clothing. The prisoner denied that the clothes found In his house belonged to Mrs. Hrown, and alleged that his overcoat had been stolen, from which the papers had been removed. He waived a hear ing and entered ball for his appearance at court. TRAINING SCHOOL TEACHERS. Proposition to Limit the Number Is Being Discussed. Tlie nuestion or limiting the number of pupils in the Training school Is again being discussed by some of the school dlrcctois, and It Is quite likely that the matter will come up before the board hemic lonir. The directors who are agitating the question favor the adoption of the plan of limiting the number of pupils to the twenty High school graduates making the highest, averages during their last year. If any of these do not desire to adend the Training school, Il is pro posed (o allow (he next highest to take the places, but to limit the number of pupils to twenty at all times. The gradually Increasing number of pupils at the school and the fact that the demand for teachers is not increas ing at a proportionate rate, Is given as a reason for die proposed limitation. WANTS STREET SIGNS. Director Roche Will Ask for an Ap propriation. Director of Public Works Roche be lieves that every street corner in tho city should have a sign designating the names of the Intersecting streets nnd an appropriation for the purchase of such signs is to be asked from coun cils. A number of samples have been re ceived by the director and are on ex hibition in bis ofllce. It is likely that a sign which can be fastened to an electric light or trolley pole will be selected in cai-e the appropriation is allowed. THREE SUB-CARRIERS.
