TRENTON CUR MEN
WIN ML DEMANDS
Business Men Force Settlement After
Day of Riot Ending In Prob
able Double Murder.
Trenton, N. J., Mar 15. —A double
■hooting, as a result of which one man
will die, marked tbe ending of the
Strike of employees of the Trenton
Street Railway Company, the men get
ting practically all their demands.
At least fifteen men were injured
during the rioting. Three strike
breakers are In hospitals, one Is sup
posed to be drowned, having been
thrown Into the Assanplnk Creek by
a mob, and five are In Jail.
Trenton business men brought
about a termination of the strike. The
men get Increased pay—twenty-three
cents an hour —the abolition of an ob
jectionable "swing" system and the
substitution of a ten hour day; the
reinstatement of all employees dis
charged for union activity and an
agreement to arbitrate all future dis
putes.
This ends a two days' strike that
has been the most serious In the city's
history. The victory for the men la
due largely to the fact that publlo
sentiment was universally behind
them. Haidly any one rode in the few
cars that were operated during the
Strike.

receivership for the Philadelphia Rap-
Id Transit Company.
The big labor movement has result
ed In the granting of certain conces
sions to workmen in at least two of
the big industrial plants of the city.
At Baldwin's Locomotive Works,
where the sympathy strikers succeed
ed in bringing out 2,211 men, accord
ing to the company's statements, the
men have been granted a half holiday
on Saturday.
Cars are now running in greater
number than since the strike began.
Washington. Mar. 14. —President
