EXTENDING SD ATRRET CARS TO CITY LIMITS, ‘The property-holders und residonta on Madl- son street west of Western avenue are renew- ing the agitation of the project to huve the West Division Street-Rallway Company extend its tracks to Central Park. For tho past two or three years theru faa been o steady current of public opinion in that direction, and at times {t hus evinced iteclf-throngh the medium ot | that Indispensablo adjunct of popular rizhts— the mas+mecting. Naturally enough, the stated perlod for a reagttation of the matter havingar rived, the youd peoole ont on the pralrie got. together Monday eventing at Unton Hull, corner of Stadlson street and Catlfogila avenue, to de. Aberate and resolve. “Phis meeting was ongan- ined by ealling upon Mr, Branch to Peale, ond by ahlfting the duttes of Secretary upon Mr. 1. Everett. It waa hardly necessary to dw upon the objevts of the mecting, and so that part of the busluess was quite brief, ‘Then was there a number of mations, wll of which were carried bnantathisls. One of these motions ex- pressed it ous the seme of the meeting Uhut the railway company should ex. tend ita Madison” street Ihe tu. Central Fark, und that the fare should — not exceed tive cents for the entire distance from State street to the park. By snother motion, ucammittee of Ove was appointed to sce the property-holders on Madison ptreet from the rest Eastern crossing to Central Parl, and persuade them to give the right of way for an iinproved steam wtreet-car now being uset on Market street, Pliladelphia, ‘There was a pro- tiesou Wo ihe effect that the railway company shonld operste the steam street-cara on the vuminoy, strap rail, the fare not to exceed vente. By etill another motion, it was cided that if tho strect rallway company would not extend tts line of horae-cars to the park, oF operate the fuproved street-car on the strap-rall plu ate fare not tu exveed 5 centa, thoee present would pledge thelr patronage to any omnibus line that sight be started on Mad- ison street. In order, probably, to ace how big a lever this Great will be, by the laat: motion of which apy record was made, a comuitttes of tlve was appointed to sce what prospeets of starting an Gmibus ive on Madhon street to Central Park were. ‘The ugitatory then adjourned to mect agaly on the 3d of eptember, when the several committees ure expected to report tho results of their labors. oe meeting probably grew out of the resulta C) 4 CONPEHENCE between the property-holders snd Mr. J. Russel! Jones, Peesident of the West Division Strect- Ral company, which was held at the lat- ollice some me last week. The confur- was scarcely a3 satisfactory as reyards ree sults as the Comuilttce of vropertv-hoiders could desire, They stated their reasons why they beleyed the Company should extend ite Une, and walted for Mr. Janes’ reply.

If steam were to be used, Mr. Jones wanted a Trall, to which the Committee de- murred. dn conversation with s Taiscum reporter yesterday, Mr. Jones stated that it was slmply mpusebie to run bis cars out to the park forone fare. It would not pay, Although that portion of the city was Using gradually diled up, there were not yet enough people out these to make the scheme pay, and of those whe did. live there very few, If any, did spy éhort riding, most of then travellu the whole dis- tance. If there was any prospect of short rhling,{t might pay. There wae another difli- culty in the Way of tunning the horse-vars out: the danger to which peopte would be exposed in crossing the Great Eastern tracks. ‘Trir, the Yonth Site cars had to cross the Burlington tracks: but In thelr case there were only one or two tracks to croes, While his cars would bave to: crosa six. Of course tt would bea very nice thing for people Siving out on the prairie fire or six miles toride down town for 5 cents, but until there were more of them, and more prospect of some appreciable revenue accruing to the Company to offset the additional ex- pee such a thing did not ecem to be practica- THEN THERB WAS ANOTIRA DIFFICULTY. There were the proncrey-hahlers ‘on Lake stree! who of couree wanted the line extended on thal street. The Madison street folks were just ns strenuous for an extension on thelr street, Tho Madison street people de- eplaed the. Lake street people. and the Lake street people — entertatned a precisely similar feeling tor thelr Madison street nelehburs, The Company's charter favo It the right to ran on Lake and Madison streets throuch the Town of Cicero, but with these two different Interests to please how was the Company to proceed! Ie still hoped that some arrangerient would be agreed upon by which that portion of the city would have Letter uc- commodations, but at present the only prac- ticable way he could ave out of the afilicuity was to employ the dummy, as he had sugzest- ed to the Cominittee. And even in that cose it would be necessary to secure a permit from the Council to use steam on the street, and at resent there wasn prejudice against {te use. The West Division Street-Hatlway Company do- aired to do all tt could for the accommodation of the people in that part of the city that was consistent with a due and proper regard for ite own Interests, and be hoped as ho said before, that an agreement could be had which woul suit all parties. GAS. QUITE UNCENTAIN. With o view of getting at the status of the gas question from the Company standpoint, a Tninune reporter yesterday called upon Vrest- dent Watkins, of the South Side Company. ‘That gentleman stated that he knew very little about it, as he had been out of town, Several months age he accepted the roposition of $1.05: per thousand, which iat been made by the Gas Committee. This dguro waa cqual to @13.11 for each lamp. post fn the elty per year, and he was confident that nv elty in the United States was lighted so cheaply. So far as the resolution which was raseed by the Council suine few weeks aco was voncerned, he kuew Ittle about It. He hat never expressed any Inclination to accept it, as he bad once before given his terms tu the Gus Committee, and accepted their proposition! Would he charge for the gas consumed since May Lat $1.05! He uid not know, He had not set sentin any bill In fact, be didn’t know hut what he ‘would make the city a pres- ent of “the bill, as it seemed to be quite poor, How much did he think the Uil] now amounted tof He supposed it would foot up about 330,000. It did not nnonnt toa great deal. He didn’t know but what his company wouldaend in no bill whatever, Would he turnish the reporter with gas on the same termad Mr. Watkins laughed at the address of the question, go did the Secretary of the Com- pany, and the reporter acted tkewise. ‘Phe an- awer was lost in cuchinatlons. What did he think of the resolution introdced in the Coun- ef offering to pay €1.25¢ Ue didn't think any- thing abuut it. ‘The movements of the Alder- men were so cecentric ho did not bother his head about them, In short, Mr. Watkins avem- ed inclined to fmpress the reporter with the idea that he had offered his ultimatum to the celts, and hiv didn’t caro whether they accepted it or not. A SMALL SIZED STRIKE was Inaugurated yesterday at the North Side Gas-Works. It svems that on the outbreuk of the rerent labor troubles the ‘retort men’? asked Prestdent Watkins to advance their wages from $2 to $2.25 por day temporarily, eo they could announce to the mob that thelr am-- ployer was not a hard-hearted, soulless corpora- don, Mr, Watkins complied with the request. and the advanced wages continued in forca until Monday, when ho notitled the men that it woula be diicontinued and the old wages restored. Promptly at 6 o'clock yesterday morning the “retort” men”. struck in a body, and left the premises, though they did not go eo far away but what they could seo What was going ou. Mr. Watkins was Lnmediately informed of the strike, und, ac curspanted “by o force of other employes, pro- veeded to the works. Cuata were taken off, and all hands commonced emptyjng and Alling re torts, ‘The strikers becaine {nten disgusted at not being linmediately coaxed to’ return, aa they had fondly hoped, ond after standing out ntew hours came to the concluston that they had acted foolishly, and returned to work, So. peace reigns un tte North Side, and the etty will not be left In durkness, NOT ON HAND, CLAUK STREET M88I0N, At No, 302 Clarit street, between Van Buren and Harrison, and fa the midst of a regular rookery of saloons, pawn-rhops, and nezro dives, there has been located within the past few weeks what ls known: ux the “Clark Street Mbylon.” As explafucd by its founder, Mr, Frazer, of the YM.

TUE WORKINGMEN, ABRANGING FOR A MASE-MEETING, Some forty or lity workingmen, including rep- resentatives from the Shoemakers’, Stonecut- tere’, Coopers’, Corpenters’, Molders’, and Print- era’ Unlonsand othertrades, held a meeting Man- day evening in Muskell Hall, South Deoplaines street. Repreeentative Heury F, Sheridan pre- aided, aud Mr. John Meiitvery, of the Stone- cutters' Union, acted as Secretary. It had not been coutemplated to hold such a mecting, tho Labor League haying issucd ny call for: it, and the proceedings were somewhat faforinal in their character, after conalderable discussion, a series of reso- Jutions were uusuimously adopted, and It was voted to hold a mass-mecting of workingmen in Market Square Tuesday evening, Aug, 21, when the resclutions will be submitted tur rati- Heation, The object in view is to thoroughly organize for the fall election, and to put a tufl Workingmen’s ticket Ja the Held. . Associations and cluts will be formed in every ward aud township, and it fa hoped ‘that a full Stute — orzanization van bo perfect- ed with Uttle delay, The members of the ditfereut trades hold that they have little or nutuing to expect from either of the great pulit- {eal parties now tu existence, and therefore muss work for themselves. Plenty of promises are periudically inade thems Just before election, and fonvenieutty forguttess as soon as the. strugile ig aver, ‘The resolutions agopteil embody thu platform of the Workingmen's purty. The remonctiza- ton of | atlver, aud ite isus io sufficient quan- tity tu uect the requircucats of busluess ts deinanded, but the Grecnbackers get no ea- couragement.

The workiogmen claim that tt is perfectly practi« cable to so divide up the labor of pridoners in penltential iustitutions that no one trade should be swamped by competition. Another plauk uf the plutforia relates to the fmpruve- mneut of water-courses throughout the State, which ts dedoed aa a matter of urgent neceesity, aud a callig made on the General Government, to assist iucarrying vo this work.

Smythe, of No. 171 West Twelfth street, has. 9n exhibition ina shop In the rear of that piace a motor of novel construction, and for which he antlelpates great things. Le has been at work ,%pon the motor for nearly three years, and obt. Uned a patent on it July St Iast. The patent is for “an improvenient in tos tors,” and the « peclitcations set forth that the machine consists of an iron frame-work on the lower part of whi. this adrum round whicha curdorchainiswon wd. Then there area number of connecting cog-w heel atrabged in the main frame with pulleys c ver which the cor! passes, The power fs turnie bed by means of weights suspended by the cot. A lending feature of the invention Is a pecu Varly-constructed rtotted lever, by means of wit th the paves ie applied tothe machinery, The general explanation of the whole affair fs that by means of a cont towhich aweicht Is attached, passed over a drum and through a cunabination of pulleys, power Is obtained, ‘The machine which Mr. Stnsthe has now on view fs ouc-fourth the size whieh itis intended to manufacture.
