"There are two ways to help the

oil on the child's head to wash the hair.
What remained of the oil on a plate
the woman threw on the stove.
Instantly the oil on the stove caught
fire and set the premises ablaze, the oil
on the girl's head also being ignited.
Before any assistance could be ren
dered the child was burned to death.

As was expected, the street car

of the strikers meeting yesterday
morning, tho proposition wns returned
to Mr. Clark with the statement that
It had been unanimously rejected.
The proposition, ns reduced to writ

It Is believed by many that the strik
ers did not thoroughly appreciate the
company's proposition. To some of the
strikers' representatives, who nfter
wards saw Mr. Clark, it was explained
that It was the compuny's intention to
lake back all the old employes us fast
as places could be found for them.
The fact that,at present the company
could only give assurances that it
would reinstate sevenly-flvo per cent,
did not necessarily menu that twenty
five per cent, of them would never bo
taken back. It simply was the mark
ing of the limit to which the company
could nt present see Its way, clear to go.
BUSINESS MEN'S COMMITTEE.
A part of the business men's com
mittee which had some dealings with
General Manager Sillhiiuu about a

yesterday, at his loom in tho Jermyn,

Nono of the parties to tho conference

place. Ono member of tho committee
said there might be nn anouncement to

Tho strikers had a nnrado. last night,
followed by a mass meeting nt St,
