HOl'E TO SETTLE STRIKE
Trolley Employes Go Into Sessidn
With Mediators at Wilkes-Barre
Wilkes-Barie, Pa, April 3.—The
hope of a settlement of the trolley
strike on the lines of the Wilkes-Barre
Railway Company waH considerably
brightened to-day when the striking em
ployes went into session to consider a
proposition made to the committee last
night by the mediators. The proposi
tion came aftet a previous conference
of tihe government's conciliators with
Manaf/fer T. A. Wright, of the traction
company.
The mediators profess to believe the
situation is nearing a point to where
both sides will get together to talk
peace. They are awaiting the decieioil
of the men's mass meeting and, if it is
favorable, say they will confer with
tho*tractioD officials late to-day to make
final arrangements. In tihe meantime
the whole system remains tied up, with
no" attempt to operate- any cars.
