MAYOfi MAGEE AS PEACEMAKER
His Threat to Seize Lines Under Old
Law and Operate Them
Brings Both Sides
to Reason.
Pittsburg, June 'JO. After a confer
ence lasting fifteen hours at Mayor
Mngcc's o'lllcc between the union sur
face railroad men's leaders and trac
tion company otllcials the Pittsburg
car strike, which had tied up tratile
for seventy-two hours, was declared
off, and the mntornien nnd conductors
returned to work.
The strike, which resulted In a loss
of over ?1!00,000, was the outcome of
but two points of difference between
the car company and the motormen
nnd conductors, one being the alleged
neglect upon the part of the ear com
pany to shorten "swing runs" nnd the
other the refusal of the railway olli
clals to reinstate discharged men with
out proper hearing.
When the warring factions assem-
bled the mayor addressed them In controlling Interest In the Philadel

disturbances.
The mayor said ho had discovered
an old law under which he can seize
the street car lines in the name of the
city and operate them for the accom
modation of the public. His threat
that ho would appeal to this law cans
ed both sides to lean toward peace,
and they finally agreed to settle their
differences. 1 within sight of his grave.
An agreement allowing discharged The verdict of tho jury was "that
men proper hearings before super- Hastinan killed Edith May Thompson
intendents and the assurance of the Woodlll or was accessory to the mur
car company that they would shorten dor." It was a compromise verdict, as
"swing runs" ."() per cent was drawn
up and signed.
Cases of rioting and violence were
reported to the very last, although all
the police reserves were on duty, aug
mented by special deputies sworn in
by the sheriff of Allegheny county.
Fourteen strike breakers were chas
ed away from the Hauklu car barns
by union sympathizers. A fusillade of
shots greeted tho strike breakers as
they emerged from tho barns. Men in
a nearby plant joined in the chase aft
er the strike breakers, running them
more than a mile.
Two county detectives missed death
by a narrow margin when a crowd of
persons around the Ilerron Hill car
barns sot upon n score of strike break
ers. Tho olllcers attempted to pacify
the lighting men. The crowd devoted
their attention to the officers and after
beating them unmercifully dragged
them to a high bridge over a ravine
near the car barns and threatened to
throw them over the rail if they re
fused to promise to keep out of tho
clashes between tho strike breakers
nnd tho friends of the strikers. Tho
timely arrival of the police saved the
officers from probable death.

nnd Belgium.
The ordinance when Introduced was
accompanied by a petition signed by
00,000 names, and It was passed unani
mously. On May 17 n committee from the

Jury Says Eastman Killed Gages Ward
or Was Accessory. ,
St. Michaels, Md., June LU The cor- ,

Kdlth May Woodlll. the ward of I.y-
man J. Gage, was finished in the lone-
ly bungalow ot Robert h. Eastman.
where the murder was committed, and
EDITH MAY WOODILL.
four members of the jury refused to
sign until the words "or was accessory
to tho murder" were ndded.
William Sutton, who went to the
bungalow to ask Eastman to attend a
religious meeting, definitely fixed the
time of his visit ns Sunday afternoon
between 5 nnd (i o'clock. This nlso
fixes the time of the murder as Sun
day night. Sutton swore positively
that he heard Mrs. Woodlll's voice. It
was conversational In tone, and there
was nothing to indicate that she and
Eastman were or had been engaged in
a quarrel,
George Powell testified that he spent
all of Sunday at Sutton's farm, within
view of tho bungalow, and that he
saw no one go near it. Powell's testi
mony seems to dispose of the story
that a party in a launch visited tho
bungalow on Sunday.
Robert Seth testified that Eastman
appeared at his place on Saturday
night between 11 and 1:30 o'clock, say
ing his launch was ashore, that ho had
"a lady" on board and that ho would
not have Seth know who she was for
$1,000.
Seth said he agreed to let Eastman
have a team and to place it where he
and the girl could reach it without
being seen.
