Force Again Augmented.
The Police Board nt a meeting held last
e\ ruing dctcrniined to add to the Special
fotce *ix more ?men. Pive more were put
or duty In Hcnrlw. Patrolman Henry
'Thomas, ot tha city force, was brought
?before the beard on the ehnrge of neg?
li.! cf duty in not suppressing ii disor?
derly' demonstration on Welt Mai? street.
He was fleefned guilty of the charge and
? tino Of $25 W?S Imposed.
The peten ems operated by the Cnttl
?p.my ?? tho Main Street line during Hie
rlay we,'0 Wanned by employes of the of?
fices and by slrlke-breukcrs. Among the
? mployes Who went out with a car was
Mr. Frank Cralglc?. MntoMiian Showaller
?mil Conductor .Ton Williams ran the first
car, which canied officials of the corri
y.nnv and police nriiceis from the vali?
ent;'districts, who rode on tho cars within
Hie limits Of their pfcCltlCtS. The trip
of tho first ear run through from Pulton
was safely made, there being no real
molestation? though people crowded to
the doors and windows In the West ??a
nnd in Fulton'; find some of them cried
"scab," but mnrie no active demonstra?
tion. There was a Inrgc and curious
crowd at Seventeenth and Main Streets,
but they were kepi well in check by tho
police. At almost every coiner two or
tliten police officers were stationed, and
"move on" was the order wherever there
was n tendency t<? congestion or the as
t-cnibling of crowds. Altogether thoro
seemed to bo fewer Ullo people on tho
streets. This Is partially accounted for
by the absence of bulletins, Which were
withheld at the request of the Police
Hoard, for tho rouson that they caused
the gathering or crowds of people. All
nlong the business portion of Main Street
everything seemed to be. proceeding
quietly, and while, the cars run during
the greater portion of the day bad few
passengers they run smoothly and with?
out accident or delay.
Electric Light Men.
It. can he stated on tho bast authority
that there Is ilo likelihood of tho going
out of the inch employed In tho power
house of tho company. Even If there were
a strike there it would not affect tho
street lights, but merely tha current
flowing through tho trolley wires. So far
there has been no intimation of ? strike
by the men employed thoro, anil tho com?
pany docs not anticipate having to meet
su?li a contingency. ^
It is stated upon unquestioned authority
that tho four men employed to look af?
ter the trolley feed wires, although mem?
bers of the union, wero requested by the
strikers not to go out. but to remain at
their posts for Ihe protection of life and
JTr?perfy, In tho event I hat a wlro br?So
or fell or nocded repairs. Thus far thoro
has been no report of Interference with
tho wires. Some plugging of switches Is
.reported, and in sonic cases, notably In
Manchester, tho track Is said to hare
been partially covered with dirt. This Is
attributed to the natural accumulation
caused by passing vehicles and the unused
state of the tracks, and not by any effort
to block thom.
The men are conducting thotusclvc3 In a
most orderly manner, nnd tiro not seen
congregated together anywhere, savo at
und near their headquarters Just before
end affcr Their meetings. All reports from
headquarters are that their rnnlts are
unbroken, and the men as determined as
ever to muTrruiln tuo strike.
Running of Cars To-Day.
At the ofllces of Iho company the man-,
igc.ment is chary of statements, not'
curing to do any propesylug, nor to ex-1
press themselves as to tho situation, lest
their statements be construed as boast?
ful. General Manager Huff whon seen by
-ti.'.reporter about 7 o'clock last evening;
simply stated Hint they would continue to
run tho cars. He admitted the company
had some men to man them and could
get mote when needed, but further than
this he did not care to state tho plans of
the company. When asked to say whether
or not an effort would be made to operate
any of tho other linos to-day, ho 'ed
to. he excused from further statemei.
tho plans. While L.ioroughly polite, t.
manager showed clearly that he did not
deem ?t discreet to discuss In detail the
Plans of tho company.
It is understood from other sources
that tho policy of the company is to
maintain tho service as far ae practi?
cable with men temporarily employed,
uutl] the back-bono of tho strlko be
"broken, which Is quietly but confidently
anticipated by them. In that event,
they prefer to employ tho local mon.
3ii short, the company proposes to make
the struggle ono of endurance, behoving
that with Its resources and determina?
tion It can outstay the men. it is prac?
tically admitted that tho company can
Kit plenty of men from a dlstanco. It Is
unid that they hnvo offers of men from
Westes* ??????,??? blocks of one hundred
and ?two?'hundred, to como hero to work,
the men In ?very caso heing nxpcrloncod
trolley lino operatives. Besides this, the
company is said to he receiving appli?
cations from Blebmond men who are
unemployed and from men In other por?
tions of tho State.
Men Expected To-Day,
A largo number of strike-breaker? are
?xpoctod hero this morning, but Just how
many or whence they will conio cannot
ino positively stated. It is reported, how?
ever, that they are from New York.
Whlln tho company-gives no intimation,
of its intentions 10-day, then? uro Indi?
cations that effort!) -will bo mudo to ope?
rate ears on other lines to-day. Man?
chester will probably be ono of iho fields
of operation, truck workers having gone
over that lino yesterday, Owing to the
reticence of tho company no positive
statement of Its Intention!; can bo mudo.
Tho men held Iwo meetings yesterday,
both of which were well attended, and ?it
which reports wore made by the pickets
nnd? committees, and business of , &
routine nature disposed of. They show
the same earnestness and enthusiasm
In their cause manifested at first, ani
there are nowhere, any blgns of waver?
ing. Financial support is still coming
in and tho men are hopeful of securing
ail tlie funds that may be needed. Mr!
Orr, the general nrganUer, was called
? way to Urooklyn on business last night,
but will be bick to-morrow and assist
President firlggii and othor officials of
the local organiinUon In directing the

and a special eonimlttco of tho Central
Trades mul Labor Council, constituted
with ?? view of securing on adjustment
of tlio diff?rences between tho company
and Its striking Cmployo?, Was without
results, and but confirmed tho belief that
Ilio company wan unalterable In its atti?
tude in the mutter. The company firmly,
but politely, declined to recedo in tlio
.slightest from its well known portion.
After being fully assured that there was
no prospect of arbitration or of any fur?
ther negotiations, the members of the
committee shook hands With the ofllclals
and departed,
The conference was held in the office of
General Counsel Miles M. Martin, of the
company, nnd wa3 attended by General
Manngcr Huff, President Sltterdlng, Su?
perintendent ,Northrup, Mr. Martin nnd
Assistant General Counsel A.B. Gulgon
on tho part of the company, and by tho
committee, Messrs. Sidney Cate?, John
D?nloavy, "W. II. Mullen, John Krause
and William Shepherd.
Mr. Donlcavy for the committee stated
their mission clearly nnd fully. Tho com?
mittee un behalf of tho laboring people
of tho community and tho merchants and
business mon had como lo confer with
tho company In an effort to secure somo
agreement looking to a resumption of
street car service. Ho referred to the
great Inconvenience nnd hardship to the
public and tho serious loss to the mer?
cantile and business Interests of the city
resulting from tho strike, nnd exprossed
tho hope that something might bo done
to offect a settlement of tho existing dif?
ferences. Tho committee did not represent
tho striking organization, but the com?
munity.
Mr. Huff, on tho part of tho company
expressed his pleasure and that of his ns
soclates fit tho friendly feeling mani?
fested, declaring that he was glad to see
tho delegation and to confer with them.
As to further negotiations, Mr. Huff gains
tho commlttoo no ground to hope for
that. Ho reiterated tho well known posi?
tion of tho company .In .the negotiations
fading to the strike. ? "Wo have given
the men a chance to get back if they will
avail themselves of lt. Wo can do nothing
more," was his conclusion.
Mr, Shepherd' thereupon Impressed thp
fact that lie and his associates wero not
present In the Interest of the strikers,
but of tho entire community. The mer?
chants of tho city aro losing money and
nil tho lines of business were feeling the
depression Incident to the suspenslclv of
car service He again expressed tho hope
that tho differences might bo adjusted, to
tho satisfaction of all concerned.
Mr. Huff replied, In substance: "I want
to say, gentlemen, that wo appreciate
tlio spirit that brought you hero and tho
Interest manifested, Tjut wo cannot
chango tho position wo have taken? We
have considered this matter thoroughly,
nnd we are doing what wo bollevo to bo
to the Inforcete of tho company nnd of
Ilio community. We declino to rc-arbl
trato 1ho questions between ourselvce and
our former employ?s, for tliey are not
our irnployes now,"
Mi Donloavy, on the part of the com?
muti S, then asked the direct question
wlietfcer or not tlioy were to understand
that there was no hope of arbitration ns
? means of securing m settlement of th?
differences between tho mon nnd the
company.
Mr. Huff ns5\irert the committee firmly
nnd decisively that this was Just tho
Bttu.rtlon.
This ended the conference, which had
consumed hut twenty minutes or less.
All the statements and tho entire pro?
cedure wore fonimi and polite, and the
chairman of tho eommlttco, Mr. Cntos,
expressed tho thanks of tho commlttoo
at tho courteous reception and hearing
tendered them.
The rommltoo then retired, Thus ended
what appetii'? to he the last erfort to

STRIKR IN HENRICO

In tha County Court of Honrlcr? yester?

Up to this tini? ihero has bocn no dis?

arrest of one man yesterday, Any Im?

erroneous. In the majority of cases the
utmost quiet has prevailed and tho olii

little for them .to do, save ?trull around

to the same effect.
At all tlio different place?, however,

from tho Irresponslbles who ate always

Threw Cigar in His Face.
A little thing that occurred In tho coun?
ty jail ofllco yesterday Is illustrativo of
Ilio opinions hi which some of Iho strike
fynipatliizerH hold tho olllccrs who arrest
men for abusine tho strike-breakers.
Just outside ??? city limits In the
West-I'Tnd, a man hoarded a car and
tried to argue with the inotminan about
tho propriety of running a cor during.a
fitrlko. The motormnn told lilm to gel
olT, which he did but after a little while
he was on the street ho proceeded to
heap abuse upon the head of tho motor
man. Johnson, a city otllcer, Jumped oft
the car nnd made for the offender, who
declared that he was In tho county out of
the jurisdiction of the city police. At this
point, it is said, a county olliccr placed
tho man under arrest.
Johnson went to the county jail with
his inai/, where the latter Was lined $2,50
by Squire Lowls. Friends 'quickly pro?
duced tho money, expressing sympathy
for the prisoner, Johnson gave him ?
cigar. Barely hud ho dono so, however,
when ono of tho sympathizers snatched
It from the man's mouth and threw It
full Into tho face of the ofllccr, with Iho
statement that ho was there to follow It
ii)i with something further It necessary.
Confusion prevailed for a while, but the
fellow was grabbed and hustled Up-stalra
and kept away from tho officer. John?
son Indicated a desire to swear out ?
warrant, but so far as is known, decided
afterwards not to do so.
Horse Sympathizers.
It's a funny thing, but two horses took
It. Into their heads to assist the sirlko
sympathlzers yesterday,? nnd they did
It more effectively than two men could
have done.
Mlko Kelly owns two mighty steeds,
who have never been known to balk be?
fore. Yesterday they wero pulling a
wagon at Twenty-first and Main, near
the courthouse, when the first of the
strike-breaking cars cimo along. The
horses got Into tho middle of the trick
and stopped, mid vigorously applied
whips could not moke them budge. All
the while tho cat? stood there, unable to
movo a peg. The team tad to he un?
hitched and dragged off. ) It took four
policemen to do it.
POLICE OFFICER FINED
Mr. Thomas Did Not Suppress Disor?
der?More Policemen.
Three hours and a half woro consumed
last night by the Police Commissioners
in executive session.
Two matters were disposed of In that
time, one of them, tho appointment of six
additional special policemen; tho other
the Imposition of a line of $25 upon Po?
liceman Henry Thomas, on tho charge of
neglect of duty.
It took very little time to elect the
specials and they wero promptly sworn
In by City Clerk August and assigned to
duty.
Tho hearing of the evidence in tho case
of Officer Thomas consumed much time.
There wero more than twenty-live wit?
nesses, the most of them being for Mr.
Thomas. Tho speculo charge was prof
forred by Mr. A. J. Staude, a West-Kml
merchant, whoso place of business is lo?
cated near tho scene of the trouble on
Thursday morning-, when the first cars
run out from the sheds were stoned by
a crowd of several hundred people.
At tho time of tho greatest disorder Po?
liceman Thomas was on duty in that vi?
cinity. A crowd of from threo to four
hundred people had gathered, many of
them women and children. Tho greatest
hubbub was created nnd confusion pre?
vailed. Pocks and other missiles were
thrown at tho cars and several of tho
passengers wero struck) one lady, Mrs.
Shoppard, of-Floyd Avenue, being sharply
hit on the arm. .
ONE AGAINST.3TUNDRB3DS.
It was from this disorder and confusion
that tho charge was preferrod. Mr.
Staude stated that Mr. Thomas did not
oxert himself in suppressing the trouble.
Ono of the witnesses said tho officer nt
ono timo stood for several minutes In one
place, while the depredations woro going
on, without making an effort to stop
them.
Another witness, a lady, said that she
saw from tho front of her homo a quan?
tity of trash thrown from a window upon
one of the cars and sho thought that the
policeman should have seen it and mado
?? arrest of tho g;ullty party, as lie was
nt tho time standing nenr the spot,
Othor witnesses testified along tho same
lines.
On the. other hand the witnesses Intro?
duced by Mr. Thomas all testitled that he
was quito active In ids efforts to avert
a riot and to quell tho disturbance. .
Ono of thorn suld that he had been told
that the policeman ? atterit'on was'de?
tracted from one point to ?mother, ho that
In tho contusion the roc)?.? could be
tlitcwn ? ibout detection.
In Mr. Thomas' statement bo said that
ho was tho only ofllccr on duty in tho
neighborhood at ??? time, and that fur
two blocks tho street was crowded
densely with men, women and children,
lie Haw no violent outbreaks, nor could
ho, in his loneliness, detect any of tito
violators of tho law.
TI 113 OKFICIOR'S STA.TK.MWNT.
"There was a great commotion at the
timo," ho said. "I did evorytlilng i hat
could bo done by ope man against bov
crul hundred people. Tho rocks anil
other things were thrown from hohlml
me, and when I went to investigato ono,
another outbreak would occur In a dif?

canient I was In 1 Immediately sought
reinforcements from the station house,
and 'phoned for help. In a short while
other policemen came up, but tho oars
liad passed on, nnd tho crowd was com?
paratively calm. '
"I saw no oun throw tho eggs and tha
refuse on Ihn cats. Had I seen thetn I
would most corti?Inly have arrested tho
offender?,"
'It was (v case of ono man against hun?
dreds, and the reason was that no sails
factory understanding had been reuuhud
between tho department and tha com?
pany. Captain, Whltlock had detailed
throe men to Main Street, from Fjrst lo
Irfimhardy, und the rifrangili of his force
was In reservo on Broad Street. ThU
arrangement was effected because It wiia
tho understanding; on the part of tho
po)|co that tho first cars would bp run
down Proud fcilrcot. *
Ah soon as It waa known that tho earn
were running on Main 'Street tho ri?
serve hurried to that section, and tho
troubla was stopped to a great extent.
After a lung and careful consideration,
the board reached tho conclusion that the.
allargo against Policeman Thomasjhad
been sustained, and. he was flnofl JiT.

As a result of the hearing, und upon tho
testimony of tho.witness wlui said sho saw
