SERVICE STILL VERY POOR Less Than One-third the Average Daily Number of Cars Are in Use and These Are Not Well Patronized. Probability of a*General Strike -of Union Men as a Sympathetic Move Grows More Remote. . Philadelphia, Feb. 26.—No serious disturbances occurred to mark the seventh day of the street car strike, More cars are being run than at any other time since the walkout and the determined attitude of the police au- thorities to suppress rioting has pre- vented further attacks upon the non- unijon strikebreakers. Traffic, however, is still far from normal. Ordinarily more than 2,500 cars are In daily use. The largest number reported -to have been-in op- eration since the . beginning of ‘the strike was 744 during the rush hours Thursday. The union declares these figures are too high. The limited number of cars in op- eration were not well patronized. Sym- pathy with the striking motormen and conductors and fear that the attacks on the cars might be resumed at any time caused thousands of -persons to continue riding in wagons and other improvised conveyances. The elevated and subway line, however, was oper- ated to its--capacity. The railroads, which have increased their schedules for stations within the city limits, continued to do a thriving business. The probability of a general strike of the 100,000 union men in sympathy with the street car men grows more remote daily. Definite Action Postponed. At a meeting of the representatives of the Central Labor union, Central Trades and other unions action on the sympathetic strike was postponed un- til Sunday, when a great mass meet- ing of all labor leaders in Philadel- phia will be held to determine finally whether the 100,000 union men and women shall strike. It was decided that, if a general strike should be called, Ro terms would be made with the street car company’ until it had resumed the sale of six street car tickets for a quarter. The union men believe this will be a popular move and will gain sym- pathy for them. As soon as the strike leaders were notified of this action they sent a set of resolutions signed by President Driscoll and Secretary. Barron of the Street Car Men’s union to the Central Labor union and the Building Trades council declaring the car men had the situation well in hand and did not be- lieve a general smxe would be neces- sary. The officials of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company “announced their success in running cars at night and said they would gradually in- crease their daily service until its nor- mal conditions thad, been restored. * RULER OF TIBET "DEPOSED Chinese Government Issues Statement on Subject.
