THE MOBNESTe, SEFTBMBEK 18, 1890. THE STREET-GAR STRIKE ON, Best of the Cars Were Idle All Yesterday. NONE AT ALL RUN IN THE EVENING, The Men Firm hat Quiet and. Respectful in Their Demands, and Public Sympathy With Company Tho street car situation remains unchanged, but with tho advantage, temporary though Jts may bo, leaning over toward the operatives. The genial pall of calmness silently o'er tlio waters, as It; wore, and tho snickor ot tho haokman only ripples the surface.

But oil tho name tho cl.oors of tho temple Of Jsimis liavo buen thrown open, and tbo sinister countenance of tiio douhlc- facotl god Is. exposed once moro to light. Tho car men say Trru TKUUTNK'K account yesterday morning was fiilr and equare, only that tho committee who first waited on Superintendent, Reado woro om- ployosof tho Street Car Company, and there were no members of the Federated with them then. They also claim that Cuperintondcnt lleiuio was apprised oC tho real character of tho Union when The regular morning shift was on hand at a. in.

yesterday, with expectation In. their and dinner palls in their hands, ready for work. Superintendent icoado WHS up bright and early also, Ilka tho convcntlozuil bird after tho very unconventional -worm, although he had not retired until 1 a. and a THIHCNK reporter disturbed bin rest after that. A cornrnlfcteo waited on Super- Iritcnflont Kcfide at the power house and politely the men's HICADXNK8S TO riKTPBN to work If the company would accede to thoir rcqiiOHts.

Tho oHidnl as politely dc- cllnrjd. which settled tho mutter. It, wua abrmt 7 o'cloclc before the cars began to run out into the crLsp morning air, and by that tl'tno Uie regular hands had gathered at the town clock corner. Tho novices; who took 'the holm appeared scared, apparently afraid lost tho cars would run with thorn arid climb tho nearest telegraph polo. Kut tho hoHSOH arifl other ernployeosi wero on deck arid they were tit homo.

Tho appoar- undo of tho cavuicsulo was greeted with arid shouts that made tlio situaclou re.seinblo tho temple of Diana at Ephosus on a memorable occasion. One motormun was a regular man, and ho was welcomed with a whoop of displeasure that mado the CJOCK throw up both hands and cry "Oheoso it!" CbloLof Police Young had an ample force of mon both at tho power honso and at tho corners; but they had nothing to4o. 4. IJOX1SN CARS IN AI.L wore run out (m tho different lines except tipon Second South street, ami five zebra cars sallied forth, for the Third South and Fifth South street routes. Thoro woro throe or.

four to cause on tho cars, ancl they and tho "scabs" woro troutod to salvo after salvo of vocal artillery. Stilt, no ovOTt act, as Is known, was committed. Tho now men wero nervous and looked though they preferred engagements olse- wiiore, and oven Bow Campbell himself gob fio'o'xoitod that ho ran a car around one of 'tlio town cloclc, curves so recklessly that ho narrowly.escaped knocking tho hotu-t out of a team. For this Undo Campbell was arrested and fined in'tho Police Tho cash was paid up ancl ho wont; back to work. But the mon wore not Idle.

They struck out across lots and boarded curs In seriatim, wrestling with tho now operatives in persistency of persuasion that if by tho church, would Christianize-, 'Palfc Lake. In a month. They succeeded in enticing away eleven mon, and made good' later a promise to supply- thorn with tho nocosHiirics of life, which the mem said woro all they wore working for. Thou the car drivers wore "Influenced," and they came driving their arks 'up Main to tho barn arnlct the cheers of tho crowds. Later in tho day tho day the number oE electric cava wero Increased fifteen, and they: ran reasonably well, so 'that tho public did not appear to bo s'orl- Inconvenienced.

The strikers hold a rousing mooting at noon In Federated Trades whoro the. situation vrus considered and tho 'boys resolved to stick it out. Jt was decided to offer t-ho street-car company 330 men to police tho tracks if the company feared any trouble. A TuturjNM reporter found several of the principal strikers later, and they said they had boon udvlsocl to wait unMl Fn-lr and Conference time, as they then woitld have tho company In a hole. But tho men had decided they did not want to cripple "tho railroad company or injure it In any way; They aa.kod yOB StMPJjH JUSTICE And "believed tlio logic of Events -would bring this about.

They acknowledged, influencing now moti, but claimed that what they did was lawfully done. If violence been resorted to they could in few minutes so destroy tho electric connections Jn tho cars an to lay thorn all up throo weeks. Furthermore, tlio mon whom thoy had got away wero Instrnctod to run their cars into tlio bavn so us not.to blockade tho, streets. It was also stated that in yesterday noon's mooting $30 had boon raised in a fow nj'liiutoB to help out tho uowest-additions to thoir ranks. A At r.

p. m. tho Car Men's Union all turned out-on parade preceded by tlio Liberal Band. Tho men nunibored count, and marched by twos, 1 neatly dressed in unlforni, untl looking, as au admiiiitK Irishman fluid, "the -folno lads that thoy are, Buro." The boys had two American flaw and trausparenofes reading thusly: will not'oloan tho cars." did not make demand; wo only mado a request." "We ask tho public to boar patiently vritih us In tho batfclo for our rights." for the protection of the towpany as well as ourselves." "Our cause is just." caution tlio public against iridlrig on he curs Incompetent men," arg ready to resume our duties when tho company accede to our reasonable ro- Vjucst." "Street Cai-Mou's tlnion." Tho colutnti started from. THB corner, marched up West First South and Malu streets, and oountcr: marched on Main, East First South, Second South and as fur south as t.hc OUCt House.

Tho streets wore moro or loss crbwded, and it was evident on'oueh that was with the' mou. Kxpresalons of eHCoxu-agoinont woro fro- iijuontly heard, with offers to', contribute, and when tho boys got through they were in bettor spirits thin ever. Tho 'Drum Corps wero to huvo turned jbuts but word tnxrly onouglu oyor, flag was clipper! insaluf.o the procession went by. President Malln of union congratulated the on their appaaranco, and advised the imornlng shift to bo on-haud in the morning ready to gof-tb work if' tho oompainy will grant thoir i M'CTOST2'S YJGRSIOK. Presidont of the Railway Company, Mr.

W. was seen last evening by a and asked to his version of the -iv! He stated at once that he thought the company had the right ol control of its r. property U- Tho omployees who havo struck understood the- conditions under which tthey- service pi the 1 were recoive-' at rato -of, day nine hours each. to that they arc clean the "cars; the facts are: TJBtjtulrbtl to clean the theimotbr, under tho floor and switch boxes at oaoh.end of tho oars; hut oxccjofl one-hall this.

to. withdraw from onr service. company has equal right to employ others to take their place. These employees cannot expect the incn who have put their into this enterprise to abdicate, tho control of their Own. property ancl turn it over even to a union.

The ostensible pica is HO trifling that It is "hard to believe it Is sincere. It looks to tho. company as though tho real object was to compel from us a formal recognition of this labor order and its dojiiarkls; arid only tho good God knows where it would stop If Jt once begun. If our employees have a real grievance thoy will ilnd us as ready and willing. to treat with them 'as any company on "earth.

At the street, car oStico last night everything dark ancl nothing could bo ascertained Jn that quarter. At tho powerhouse no ono was present except three or fonr night employees who talked in four or five different languages and said nothing ot any moment. Three or four now men loitered around tho doors but would say nothing except they would work as long as thoy-woro let alone. Ono of them vouchsafed the information that ho "brobosod to stick owut as ho vas bcrfcgly sadlsfiod." The hackmcri (lid a thriving business last night, and many a faro collected from people who did not want to walk to tho out- of the city. It was learned last nlglit that somo of thorn were raising tho price of faros, but this was 'vigorously denied by Kuvoral who asserted that If anything of tho kind wan going on they knew nothing of It, and thoy had no advanced fares.

Professor.Millspaugh is still working day and night almost, trying to got the public schools Into working order. Ib is a very difficult undertaking, made all tho more so for the want of seating accommodation and proper seating.furniture.

The opening day 2SG2 pupils enrolled, ancl since then abont'500 more havo been re- celved. And there, are more to Where are we to put them? is the question asked by Mr. Jlillspiingh and tho teachers. In several districts tho schools are simply overcrowded. Negotiations are going on for renting- rooms'.

In what was'known as the Seventh, Eleventh, Nineteenth, and Twenty-first as there is neither room jjoi: seating capacity iu the school- Louses proper. There is some complaint coming from parents about the pupils being sent to schools outside of -their neighborhood when thero aro schools at hand. Professor Millspaugh wishes to explain the'reason for this. For the in the city's history an effort is to, have the pupils and classes'graded as is done in other cities, but with the present facilities this is impossible unless the pupils aro divided. In one sohoolhouso.the highei- grades are mostly taught, while in the next one the pupils aro nearly all probably.

Tho are. distributed among tho former schools and aro sent to tho latter. It is impossible to teach all the in one overcrowded room. 'Th'fsso inconvenieriocs to tho pupils Mr. Millspaugh expects to" have' soon-remedied.

Young vs. P. L. Williams, contest for a seat in the City Board of from the Fourth precinct, Suit Lake. Judge Zane yesterday delivered the following opinion: a suit brought bv thn nluintitT to contest the election of defendant to.tiie oilier of school trusMP of the fourth municlpixl proc'uict of Salt Luke City.

It appears from the evidence that on the Mlh of July last a school election held in ilm various wards of Salt Ljiko Citv to cbct to constitute tho schooi' boiml of tlio city. JFcssrs. Richard W. Young and Parley L. Williams, -wild Alossrs.

Pypcraml Ijippnuni'worc candidjitos in that ward. The formur two for the long tfirin. two years each, nnd thc.liiUar two for Iho short torm, ono year each. It appears that in this municipal p'reeinc-t' there were GSO votes cast, for-the various candidates, the same number boing cast for tho candidates for the long term as- for the short term. Of these received 3-'l and YOUIIR 330, Thoro were two polling places.

At the second, whore it is charged tlui fraud occurred, accord inj; to Iho returns, Williams received 15-1 votes and Young Tho contest aliases that a number of votes, about 'twenty as he estimates it iir his were castfor him and not put in tho box by the judge who received the votes, but that votes with his opponent's nanio upon them were substituted and put in. It appears that Williarus's majority was two, mid if three or more votes that wore actually do- 'liyerod by tlie voters to the judge for Yoinig were not dropped in the box, and three others for Williams wc.re dropped in the box, of course that would elect Mr. Young. At this second poll there arc-.

Moreover, from and Utah Northern points, tho rato. has fluctuated between $10, $12' and $14. Under tho new order of things the rato is cut.

down to $fi. This is tho heaviest concession the Union Pacific has made to Salt Lake. Tom Potter wouldn't cut the rates, and it seemed as though the -'cities of tho plain" hud an immortal cinch on us.
