There was no response from any of the

Five arrests were made and thus ended
the first day's attempt to run cars.
MORE RIOTING AT NIGHT.
Several thousand strikers and sympa
thizers chargi J at dusk a wagon load of
non-union men, who had been sent out
from the Quail street barns to repair the |
trolley wires which had been cut during!
the riots of the morning. The wagon!
left the- burn under the eseo.t r>f fifty pa-!
trolmen including mounted officers and'
proceeded 400 yards soutn on Quail streot, i
through a crowd of several thousand j
persons. The wagon had no sooner stop. !
ped for the men to commence work than!
a wild rush was made for them. The j
police were powerless to stop the storm j
of stones and bricks flowered upon the j
non-union men from vacant lots, cross
streets and house taps. The men lay up
on their faces upon the floor of the
wagon and surrounded by the mounted
men who used their clubs on the more
aggressive of the rioters were hurried 1
back to the barns. Two of the non
union men wero injured. Several of the
mob were severely clubbed. Three ar
reets were made.
The first step in the movement to quell
disorder by military forces was taken to
night when the Tenth battalion and Third
signal corps of the national guard as
sembkd at thelT armory. The order
calling out the troops created a profound
impression among the strikers and their
sympathizers and o row da sarrounded the
armory. Later it was decided to order
out the Twenty-third regiment of Brook
lyn.

No Trading- in American Stocks on
I*on<lon Kx<-liaiiK«'.
LONDON", May 14.—According to pres
ent plans, J. Pierpont Morgan will not
go to America just now.
The situation on the stock' exchange
today waa the most remarkable known
as far as Americans were concerned.
There was absolutely no trading, the ar
bitrage people not dealing, and Quotations
were entirely nominal.
The optimism with which yesterday's
settlement of Northern Pacifla waft

hailed comes from the belief that It 1b
only temporary. »
A representative of one of the largest
houses said:
"Unless the Morgans and ICuhn, Loeb
& Co. accept some such arbitration, noth
ing can save the London market from a
serious smash. The temporary arrange
ment, it is believed, may overrun the
next settlement, but not much longer. It
is thought the arbitrators might set a
fixed price. That would prevent serious
failures and meet the views of Zvlr. Mur
gan and Kuhn, Locb & Co."

PRICE OF "PROTECTION"
XEW YOIIK POLICE C4APTAI..VS JOH
WORTH $25,000.
NEW YORK, May 14.—Justice Jerome
has in his possession a check indorsed
by one of the men who are supposed
to be responsible for alleged protected
gambling in this city. Today for the first
time the justice described the nature of
some of the evidence found in the re
cent raid on a place on East Fourteenth
street. He declared that the committ c
of fifteen had found in this gambling
house the memorandum of a large pay
ment of money to a man prominent in
this city, and that this memorandum con
sisted of the check mentioned, which
had been indorsed at time of payment
by the man referred to.
Justice Jerome refuses to be drawn into
answers to questions that would furthea
identify the payee.
The justlco was asked what he
thought the income of a police captain
was. He answered:
"It all depends upon the precinct. In
:me raid evidence was found to indicate
:hat $2,500 was paid. There were ten
gambling houses in that precinct. Multi
ply the amount by ten and you have
(25,000 a year as what could be consid
red a gratuity."
Justice Jerome was asked what
imounts he thought were paid for ap
jointment to a captaincy.
"From $18,000 to $25,000." he said. "Of
course, this i 3 only an investment, and
.he amount they receive are gratuities."

em part of the city that the president
■was approaching. Similar signals re
pealed at intervals told of the progress
of the train along the stretch of track
between the Twenty-sixth street station
and the Third street depot, and finally
the ■ clanging of the engine bell an
nounced its presence in the railroad yards
and near the end of its journey. Then
there was a terrible din. The whistles
of the factories and the machine shops
or the neighborhood were turned loo*c
bells were furiously rung, thousands of
voices joined in the noisy welcome to
the city s guests and a general movement
among the thickly packed humanity in
the streets added to the incident. A few
minutes after the train arrived the pro

vance of the. vanguard - tho cry was
caught up. Block after block, in suces
slon, was soon faced with a surging mass
who broke forth into a vociferous pro
clamation of welcome. i \
The line of march was handsomely dec
orated with flags, bunting and ever- i
greens. At Van Ness avenue President

TOPEKA, Kan., May 14.— Jury in
the ease of Mrs. Carrie Nation, charged
•with joint smashing, this evening returned
a verdict of guilty. The trial was before
the district court, and sentence will ba
pronounced tomorrow. It Is the general
impression that she will be released on
the payment of a fine and costs.
The trial of the case began yester
day. Today the defense had its Inning,
and made no effort to deny the truth of
the accusation. An effort was made,
however, to prove that Mrs. Nation was
insane at the time of the raid. The Jury
was out only a short time. The verdict
is a general surprise, as it was expected
the jury would disagree or bring in an
acquittal. Mrs. Nation was convicted
for breaking into Ed Murphy's saloon
one Sunday morning last February.

OMAHA, Neb., May 14.—The county at
torney Is making strenuous efforts to
hold James Callahan, the alleged kiJ
naper of Edward A. Cudahy Jr., on
charges of perjury, and the attorneys for
the defense are sparing no effort to se
cure his release. Tomorrow Callahan
will be arraigned before County Judge
Vinsonhaler on the perjury charge, and
the date for his hearing will be set.
The defense will ask for a dismissal of
tho case and discharge ot the prisoner
on the ground that the charge was d-s
--posed of on his acquittal by a jury In
his recent trial for abduction. The
charges of robbery and grand larceny,
Btlll pending In the district court again-t
the prisoner, 'will come up this week, and
will doubtless be dismissed as there is no
disposition to carry these counts further
in view of Callahan's acquittal in his
first trial.

in part:
"I wish at the first to thank the gov

to the order and its auxiliary while here,
also the local order, city officials and
* people generally 'for the interest shown
in our behalf. We have never received
better treatment, and that is saying
much.
PAST WORK REVIEWED.
"Our past as a labor organization has
been one continuous and never lagging
'. effort to advance the interests, improve
the conditions and elevate the standing
of the railway conductors. On the
whole, our efforts have been crowned
■with grand success. Wo find continually
new conditions to deal with and new
complications to face. We have, how
ever,- accomplished a grand and a great
work in securing and maintaining higher
rates of pay, shorter hours for a day's
work, pay for extra service, more favor
able and considerate rules of employ
ment, more stability and security in posi
tions, and in materially assisting in se
curing legislation affecting a great reduc
tion in risks attendant upon the calling,
and protecting the right of the employe
to recover from the employer for per
sonal injuries resulting from negligence
of the employer, or from incompetency
or carelessness of fellow employe. With
the bonds of fraternity we have bound
together 25,000 earnest, loyal, upright
men, all working to one common good
purpose. Fraternity means brotherly
love. It means the essence of the golden
rule. It is the hand-maiden of charity,
and l/ well entitled to go hand, in, hand
with the three graces, of which charity
is pronounced the greatest. This frater
nity leads our members to feel a deep

not exhaust the fraternal interest In each

PLANS FOR PRESENT.
i "Of our present I will say: Cur record
j in the labor world is an open book. Our
I crder stands today In the foremost ranks
lof effective, square-dealing, l>. slnpft.i
--i like I rbi r organizations. We have 'tho
I confidence of our members, the res ect
of our employers and of the public, and 1
the friendship of our sister organiza
> tions. Our order is in a more healthy J
; and vigorous condition than ever before
I in its history. its membership was nev
• cr so large or so earnest. Its Influence
! for good was never so strong."
i "Much has been said from time to timo
! of the peril which threatened labor cr
: ganizations and laboring people from tho
1 attitude of the federal judiciary, which
: has been held to be a standing" menace.
Decisions have been made by federal
, judges which seem to be unfair to the mi
i teresta of the workers; but as the causa
j of liberty had its Koseiusko, its Wash-*
| Ington and its LaFa.vette, co the ravsa
i iif Justice nnd industrial freedom has its
O.UlwtTi, its Hallett, its Riner. itn 1 Tar
lan and its Woolson. It Id not visionary
to predict that the future w(lll see 1 .b »r
organizations on equal terms with incor
porated capital, legal entitles in the
I courts of the land

I heai t of the mountain for the mineral

therein. Me will drive our drill of or
ganization with the sledge of education;
and as a reward for earnest, fmU.f.l la.
bor, will wrest from the future the good
we know it holds and which Is legitimated
j ly the property of him who can work it
out." ■■■_>■■■
Much more was said by the grand chief,
end .when, he concluded there 'wao an
j outburst of applause which left no doubt
j as to the popularity of the speakf.r.
MRS. MOORE SPEAKS.
As seemed most fitting, the next speak
er represented the Ladles' aux.liary.
Mrs. J. IT. Moore, the grand president,
! Is a woman of pleasing presence, and at
} the same time a forceful personality
I which is brought much in evidence when
! she talks. She has a strong voice, and
i knows how to handle It. In behnlt of
I the auxiliary association she thanked
; the governor and the mayor' anil tlia
| people of St. Paul generally for the many
I courtesies that had already been cx
i tended to both branches of the order.
j Among other things, she said that to bo
; a true woman is to have a wealth of
power, and she knew the auxiliary asso
ciation was exerting a strong influence
for good all over the country. She th.
took pains to return a few compliments
, to the governor who looked extremely
happy at this particular time.
FIREMEN SENT* GREETING.
Frank P. Sargent, grand master
Brotherhood u,t Locomotive Fir men,
was the funny man of th/ even'ng. Hl*
address was short, sweet and to tha
point. lie first referred to a comparison
made by the governor between M in -
sota, Rhode Island and me other of
the New England states, saying it ml.'nt
be true that Minnesota was large! thin
j Rhody. but the governor had fo:go t>
I mention Vermont. If U.alt state wia
honed out, he thought, it Woull !• b's
j ger than Minnesota. Then he t<-ld c f the
good time ho had been having ever »liioj
the conductors had arrived. He t-ai.l "n«
hfid been busy shaking hands w.th oli
• friends the past two or thr*e da a anl

; hazy past had helped him al rig— from
