Number of Cars arid Passengers Is Increased: Fewer Cases of Lawlessness
Only Disturbances Occur on
the Mission District Line
A Mordicai, a Time Keeper/ Left Lying
Unconscious by Assailants '
One hundred and twenty-six cars
*vere operated by the United Railroads
yesterday, traffic being conducted over
eight lines, and there was an Increase
of 25 per cent from the day before in
the number of passengers carried. Sev
eral acts of. violence were committed,
the most dastardly being an attack on
A. Mordical, a time keeper in the em
ploy of the United Railroads, at Four
teenth and Mission streets, a few feet
from the labor temple, where President
Cornelias and the executive committsa
of the carmen's union have their head
quarters. The victim of the lawless
clement had to plead. with the howling
mob of assailants for his life. As It
was, Mordical was tieaten into an un
conscious state by the murderous
sang.
At the office of the general manager
of the United Railroads last night few
.' other cases of rowdyism were reported.
! The list of the day's casualties was
i Ftnall and the attacks made on cars
i were sporadic. A revolver was dls
; charged at a Ilaipht street car from a
: building in Market street near Sixth,
but the bullet did not strike the target.
An airgun was fired from the window
of a residence in Mission street, be
, twi'en Fourteenth and Fifteenth, but
no one was injured. In neither case
xvas any arrest made.
Today the lines \u25a0which were operated
yesterday will be continued, and traf
: lie will be opened on the "loop" line,
! •which runs from the Chutes to Fillmore
t street over Fulton, Stanyan, Hayes,
. 3>evif;adero and Turk, returning over
; O'Farrell and Devlsadero. This . line
i runs in Fillmore street for three blofks
fand its cars will be the first to operate
ieven to that extent in the retail center
of the uptown disrict- . "**
MOB IS MURDEROUS
The attack on Mordical occurred late
In the afternoon. He alighted from a
Mission strert car at Fourteenth and
was immediately surrounded by a gang"
of striking carmen and hoodlums who
were loitering near the labor temple,
iseelns the belligerent attitude of the 4
men Mordical dodged into a saloon and
was followed by the crowd, which
threatened his life because he had
ridden- on the car. The time keeper
was into a rear* room of the
ealoon, where he begged for his life
and explained that lie was a' railroad
employe. But the gang would not be
appeased and stood ready, to rush on
its victim when he was slipped from
the room by. a friend who hurried him
away in a wagon.
The mob was not to be cheated of Its
prey and gave pursuit. Mordlcai was
caught again, beaten senseless and left
in the street, bleeding and unconscious.
No one came to his aid. and when later
he regained his faculties he made his
way to his home in Devis&dero street,
where he is now confined to bis bed."

Variety of Suggestions for Car
Strike Settlement
LW EREWITH are printed more of the many. communications in
M. X -which the public has responded to The Call's offer to publish,
in substance at least, any reasonable and decent suggestion looking to
the termination of the car strike. The Call assumes no responsibility
for these suggestions — -that belongs to their authors, for which reason
no such letter will be printed without the signature of the person who
wrote it. 0i
ADVOCATES REGULATION*
Editor Call: The appointing of a committee
«f oO representative citiz«is from the various
Interests centered here is a very Intelligent way
to arrive at a just decision. The work will be
to establish a fair rat* of Interest on Invested
eapitiiil fend bonrs and pay>for the/ employes that
will Compare' favorably with those obtained in
tnaDUfacturing and mercantile purxa it*, as these
are Uie fields of industry that the city must
uli imately depend on for permanent prosperity.
The Burping of profit* tuat wonld undoubtedly
be left after paying all filed charges and dper
a t in? expenses should revert to the city treas
ury to trip repair the streets and Veep them In
pwper condition.
Let the committee art Itwlf to the task and
render a report. The fdrce of public opinion will,
compel the carmen to accept Irs findings.

FAVORS CALLIXG TROOPS
Editor Call: - It Is a fart that the ears of San
Francisco «ibll rewinie service at onee 1 If ade
quate protection was given. ' It Is further a fact
that tbe police department, ; even with a most
favorable attitude on its part toward the sup
pression of violence. Is inadequate, to deal with
the situation. Tbe constitutional right of the
company to operate Its ears is not to be ques
tioned. The denial of this right by 'mobs Is .a
fact. The code provides that the governor shall
Interfere when applleatioo is mad« by properly
ronstitated and specified authorities. .Where Is

SUGGESTS PUBLIC TRIBUNAL
r > Editor /Call: I have read with- considerable
interest the many, articles , in . your excellent
paper relative to the manner In . which the
present streetcar strike should be settled: These
articles \u25a0 were not without merit, , bnt : most . of
them breathed the spirit of. war which Is provo
cative of strikes rather than - of ,. tfeace. Suffice
it •. to ; that none of the articles -I have' read
contained the. true solution of,the question.' The
only way to settle the question ; is to have -: a
tribunal elected by the people to pass upon all tiie
di*pnt*s between, the unions and their employe*,
wbere^both sides may present their jtrlevancps

" The special committee of supervisor*

tracks: into a Urolley system.. Of this
amount $100,000 would payfor 12 car*
and "the .system, could be"; ready/ for

former would cost $25,000. . . '.:.:."
'Hunt figured tho'cost of reconstruct

large cars at $216,000. and J150.Q00 for
a power house equipment. There wouM
be sufficient* money' available to buil»l
the trolley system, but $400,000 addi

build' the conduit* system. wMch would
take at least a year" to, complete. The
,Weßtinghouse compahy^made a rate <»f

pany, agreed to build for 14.500.
Relative ta the claim of the company
to the roadbed, Gallagher said that it
.would - lie "only as to ' the amount of

from . using its own streets. The com
