Running Cars.

(United Presw Staff Correspondent)
PITTSBURGH. Pa., May 10.
Pittsburgh tonight was in the grip
<Jf a street car strike which has ser
iously affected business, made traf
fic© conditions chaotic, and indirect
ly caused injuries to more than fifty
persons.
Not a trdlley car wheel has turn
ed hero since midnight Friday when
3,200 motormen and conductors
walked out on strike because offi
cials of the Pittsburgh Railways
company refused to grant them a
wage increase.
Both gldes of the controversy to
night issued statements defending
their stand. Representatives of the
rnrmen claim they are justly on- |
titled to Increased wage®, Officials I
of the company stated a wage in
crease could not be granted without
an increase in fares.
Strikebreakers began arriving in
town tonight and an effort wi'l be
made to restore trolley service Mon
day morning. Five hundred men are
being recruited to operate the cars.
Mayor Magee Immediately called!
the city council Into session. The
council passed an ordinance appro
priating $25,000 for the purchase of
riot guns gas grenades and tear
gases. This equipment will be sup
plied to the police in order that they
may quell any possible dlsprder.
Meanwhile Pittsburghers tonight
were looking cm the strike as a nov
elty and taking their inconveniences
good naturedly.
Thousands walked, other thou
sands rode In any conveyances ob
tainable, and sill other thousands
yemaincyl at home unable to get
nny transportation and living too
far from the downtown section to
walk.
Every mode of transportation,
modern and ancient, has been called
upon to meet the emergency. Auto
mobiles. buses and trucks are oper
ating as "Jitneys"—but are collect
ing 25 cent fares. Even several
horse drawn buggies aro seen on
the main thoroughfares. *
Automobiles and trucks jam the
streets. The congestion is beyond
the power of the police.
More than a score of persons have
been struck and injured by whizzing
machines.
As the result of a traffic jam in
the new Liberty tunnel, a tube for
pedestrian and vehicular traffic
which connects the south and down
town Pittsburgh, forty persons wero
overcome by carbon monoxide gas.
Motorists caught In the congested
tunnel failed to turn off their en
gines and deadly fumes pervaded
the air. Those overcome were res
cued by firemen, policemen and a
rescue crew from the bureau of
inlnes. Ono hundred other persons
staggered from the tube ill from
the gas.
Several of the gas victims were
taken to hospitals, but' the majority
of those overcome were revived by
pullmotors and ammonia fumes.

Roosevelt Admits That
Relative Strength
Has Declined.
WASHINGTON, May 10.—In a
recent report submitted to the house
naval committee today. Assistant
Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt ad
mitted that the American navy has
fallen to a relative position of four
as against five for the British fleet,
as provided In the naval limitation
of arms t ready.
“If five ahd three represent the,
present strengths of Great Britain
and Japan, respectively." Roosevelt
said, “then the United States would
appear to be approximately four.”
Roosevelt explained that this ratio
did not take into consideration,
strategically- located and well ;
equipped naval bases which add
greatly to the sea power of a notion
and does <iot Include the relative
strength of the various merchant
marines.
The report was in answer to a
request by Chairman Butler for an
explanation of, recently published
statements that the American navy
had dropped to one in relation to
five and three for Great Britain and
Japan.

Details Recounted In Letter Received
From Rector Who Launched Work
Here When Casper Was Village
Turning back the pages of church history in Casper
to the time the first congregation was assembled, a let- i
ter recently received by the Rev. Philip K. Edwards, rec-1
tor of St. Mark’s Episcopal parish, review the success of
the first church building venture here and should prove an
inspiration to congregations that are now engaged in fin-,
ini'ltltr < ~n n rm. _ .1 ... ..... ...
incing new building programs. The
letter comes from the Rev. John E.
Sulger, rector of Bt. Stephen’s
church at Terre Haute, Ind., who
organized the first church here with
the assistance of public spirited
citizens. *
The time dates back to pioneer
.lays when the Rev. Sulger was arch
ie aeon of Wyoming and Idaho under
Bishop Talbot, and the Incidents
mentioned in the letter will forever
be linked with church history in
Jasper.
"I note In the Churchman that a
new St. Mark’s church at Casper
has been contracted for costing $112,-
JOO,” says the Rev. Sulger:
“As on o who planted tho original
St. Mark's at Casper, I write to
»ffer you my sincere congratulations
and felicitations. This will be u
notable achievement, and the in
fluence of such a church, and Its
Rector, will boos wide range
throughout lhat section of tho
country.
“I wish that sometime I might
be able to see your new -structure.
It-would be of great interest to mo.
When I recall the occasion of my
first visit to Casper, and then re
flect what tho intervening years
have brought to your splendid
people there, it seems almost Impos
sible. I wonder if you know the
story? It may be of interest to some
of your people. It i H this:
“I had been building a church at
Newcastle, and. Incidentally, over
looking the construction of a church
at Sundance, when I was obliged to
go south to Cheyenne. I happened
to pick up from a seat In the cars
a discarded copy of the Casper "Der
rick," in glancing through which I
noticed an appeal by the editor ad
dressed to “any church” to come
into Casper and erect a building,
promising the united co-operation of
the citizens there. I telegraphed him
that I would be with him three days
later, and to arrange a meeting for
the night of my arrival. This pro
gram was carried out, and I was met
at the train by Mr. Butler, the then
editor of the Derrick, and by Mr.
Alec Cunningham, whom I had pre
viously met at Douglas. Mr. Cun
ningham was In charge, I think, of
the Deforrest Richards store. These
gentlemen, with others, formed a
committee to greet me, and after
supper at the little hotel where I
was given tho bridal quarters,
(which were only distinguished from
other rooms by having cheap lace
curtains at the windows) we-together
went to the outskirts of the town to
a little, old cottonwood log school
house, totally Inadequate to accomo
date the crowd. Before beginning
the service, the suggestion was
made by someone that we should
transfer the meeting to the new
Court House, which was then being
built, but which had not yet been
finished. Thither wo went. Planks
Were brought In for seats, and a
melodian was borrowed from a bawdy
house, and every saloon, as well as
other places of business and Occupa
tion. closed—and tho whole popula
tion camo to the court-room. I re
call that I occupied the rostrum with
two dogs, one on my right, and the
other on my left. I used leaflets
for the service which were distribute
ed contain!* gthe words, also, of
some old fr dar hymns, like “Rock
of Ages,’ 1 “Nearer My God to
Thee." I .el that In all my ex
perience, i have never conducted
such a service as we had there! It
Is something upon which I look
back with Infinite satisfaction, and
as the greatest privilege of my life.
At its dose, I stated how I happened
to be there, and the purpose of my
coming. I also made clear that I
was there to see whether the citizens
were In earnest in desiring to erect
a church. And that, if so, Bishop
Talbot would assist them, and that
I could safely pledge him to pay
1300.00 on tho new building. Mr.
Cunningham nnd others circulated,
thereupon, a list to be signed by the*
people, stating the amount they
give. And in the course of a very
few minutes, w<> hud more than
enough to cover the cost of the small
structure which was the first St.
Mark's. I think tho sum secured
was $2,300.00. I have often alluded
to this occasion as tho tlm« in which

took Immediate charge. They let

CHICAGO, (United Press)—Al
though "losing" nev/-born infants
in hospitals Is such a rare hap- i
penlng us to merit considerable
space in newspapers when such '
an error occurs, hospitals of tho
United States and Canada con
stantly guard against such a mis

One of the latest methods of
identifying babies Is a modifica
tion of the well known fingerprint
system of the police. Instead of
taking prints of the tiny fingers
however, the hospital authorities
make impressions of the feet of
the new-born baby on birth cer

and sealed with the official seal
of the institution. •
An increasing number of hos
