ANACOSTIA RAILWAY More Trouble Between the Company and the Men. PROPOSED REDUCTION OF WAGES Mr. Griswold Writes to Citizens of Anacostia. THE ROAD’S FINANCES The affairs of the Aracostia Railway Company, £0 far as the relations between it and its employes are concerned, have for the third time in less than eight months reached a critical stage, and a tie-up or a@ reduction of wages will, it is belleved, in all probability take place in the near fu- ture, pessibly within the next twenty-four hors. 2 The readers of The Star will remember that from time to time during the past two ov thiee v.eeks it has been mentioned that there appeared to te trouble ahead for the erployes of the railroad company, and that period seems to be speedily approaching. It is understood that during the last few days President Griswold of the railroad company has had conferences with a num- ber of citizens of the town who were prom- inent' in the movement in support of the strikers several months ago, and that he has convinced them that the road is not atle, from its receipts, to pay the men the present rate of wages, $1.50 per day. It has also heretofore been stated by those In a position to know that the stock- holders have never received a cent of dividend on their investment—a cundition of affairs which is not calculated to en- covrage those who have their money lock- ed up in the road, and it follows that if the employes of the company are to continue to receive the pay they have done since the strike was settled, elther a floating debt must be created or the stockholders must provide the means from their own re- sources to make up the deficiency between the receipts of the road ‘and the amount Tecessary to pay the men. Change in Sentiment. Should the Railway Union refuse to al- low the Anacostia drivers to accept a lower rate of pay and another strike result, it 1s believed the relative positions of the com- pany and its employes will be entirely dif- ferent from what they were on the previous occasion, when, in order to get the road so that it could resume operations, a large num! of citizens, said to be 100, signed a letterwhich was sent to Mr. Griswold, pledging, in case he granted the increase of pay asked by the men, for the ensuing few months, that if by October 1 it was found after examination of the company's books by Messrs. George F. Pyles, a lead- ing merchant, and Julius W. Tolson, the postmaster of the town, that the company was not able to continue the rate, the sign- ers would do all in their power to assist Mr. Griswold in carrying out any policy in re- lation to this part of the company’s af- fairs that he might feel disposed to adopt. Mr. Griswold's Letter. Last evening a number of those who had signed the letter received a circular, of which the following is a copy, from Presi- dent Griswold: ANACOSTIA, D. C., October 1, 1895. My Dear Sir: During the July tie-up of the Anacostia line the writer had the honor to receive from one hundred citizens of our town a letter, stating their views as to the result of deferring to the wishes of ouf employes as to the scale of wages, and requesting that !t be tried to a period not later than October 1. In every particular and not violating ‘e- gal requirements, the company has hved up to your request. The result has not been what we all hoped for, and believed wculd be, and it will be necessary in the near future to adopt some changes in the menagement. While the writer does not at this writing recall all the names of the one hundred, he believes every citizen of Anacostia at heart desires the success of its car line. Upon it in a measure depend the desirability of every home and much of the future prosperity of our village. The better our facilities for reaching the city the Tgore worth our houses and the more easy to get the money to pay for them. We also need facilities to reach the goternment departments, etc. It may not have occurred to all that to pay an extra fare would amount to a tax of about $34,000 a year on our real estate; to a re- duction of about $2 per month on the rent of each house, if only one member of the family rode per day. No one is more de- sirous than the company to do all it can for Anacostia—self-interest calls for that. In the near future the owners of the road expect to adopt a system of rapid transit. In the meantime it will do its best to de- serve your support, trusting you will give it, so that there may be no back-set, but Anacostia be ready upon the return of prosperous times to take the place that belorgs to her—the most prosperous sub- urb of Warhington. Very faithfully yours, A. GRISWOLD, President. The Road's Side. President Griswold was not in his office when a Star reporter called to see him today; but a prominent business man of this city, who has been in conference with Mr. Griswold in reference to the impending trouble, said the situation of affairs is as follows: “From statements made by M Griswold, and which will be borne out by the books, the road is going behind at the rate of between $300 and $400 per month. When the company agreed to advance the wages of the men to $1.50-per day, which was the incurring of additional expense of about $30 per day, or $000 per month, it was expected that the receipts would at least pay the current expenses. “The first month that the new rule was in operation the receipts exceeded the ex- penses by not quite $50, but each month since then they have fallen behind between $00 and $400, as already stated. “As the stockholders will put up no more money, it follows that the present rate of pay cannot be continued. Mr. Griswold says he can by waiving his own salary of $150 per month pay the men $1.25 per day, and this rate he is willing to pay until March 1 next, when, if the receipts shail justify it, he will restore their pay to the present figure. Meanwhile, every man now in the service of the company will be re- tained so long as he does his duty. “I know for a fact that there are now on file in the office of the railroad company ap- plications from over one hundred men of- fering to work for $1 per day from now un- til next spfing. Some of these are experi- enced car drivers, while others are young men who during the summer and fall have been employed on farms in Maryland. “Mr. Griswold much prefers, however, to keep his present force, and it is hoped by those most directiy interested that the Pro- tective Street Railway Union will give its eorsent to the Anacostia employes accept- ing the compromise sum that the company is willing to pay. “President Lawrence of the union has been, or will today be, asked by some of the citizens of Anacostia to use his influ- ence in this direction. “Should these overtures fail, no other course remains but for those now running the cars to strike and have their places taken by others, or that the road shall be tled up for an indefinite period.” ae Gen. Dugan's Funeral. The funeral of Gen. James Dugan, whose sudden death occurred at the Forrester House in this city Sunday evening, took place yesterday morning from the resi- dence of Capt. H. E. Burton, 1000 9th street northwest. The pallbearers were members of Phil Sheridan Post, G. A.

Lawyer Moss’ Intemperate Language Proved Raiher Expensive. There is no appeal from the decisions of the judges cf the Police Court, but today Lawyer Jorn A. Moss made an appeal in the rature of a speech when Judge Kimball fined three of his clients, and his speech prcved rather expensive. William Mahoney, Patrick Moore and Michael Harrington were his clients, and they were charged with disorderly con- duct. Several policemen figured in the case, us well as a number of other witnesses, and when the defense had been heard Lawyer Moss made a lengthy argument and sat down. He was confident that he would win his case, but hardly had he taken his seat when Judge Kimball took a hand in the matter, mentioned the points in the proof and said, “They are fine] $5 each.” | This came in the nature of a complete surprise to the Anacostia lawyer, who was soon on his feet. “I say boldly, openly, courageously and defiantly,” he shouted. “that there is no legal evidence in this case to sustain the charge.” ‘The case has b Kimball told him. “I'll be seated torted the lawyer. Judge Kimball would probably have let the matter pass without further notice had not Mr. Richardson, the prosecuting attorney, called attention to the language, | and then Judge Kimball fined Mr. Moss $10 | for contenipt. “That's all righ "i go in the cock.” Just then Lawyer Peyton stepped for- ward and paid his fine, and the usual apol- ogy in cases of this kind was not made. This amount, together with the $15 fine, made a total of $25 for the District. ——_— DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. read: when I get said Lawyer Moss, Congress Heights School.

NEWS AGENCIES “SCcooPED.” Exclusive Announcement in Europe by the Associated Press, LONDON, October 2—On= of the lead- ing features of all the important Eu- ropean papers today the Asso- ciated Pr exclusive dispatch from Havana, teliing of the loss of the Spanish cruiser Cristobal Colon. No other news agency on this side of the Atlantic had any details of the disaster, dnd the Associated Press dispatch was the first news of the affair which the Spanish’ minister here re- ceived. Naturally, the st f'the wreck of the cruiser created much excitement in official circles in Madrid and elsewhere. A representative of the Associated Press was informed. at the Spanish ministry today that it was not until after midnight yes- terday that the Spanish minister of ma- Admiral Beranger, reseived a cable age direct from Havana in every way confirming the story of the Associated Press, which had been cabled to Madrid many hours 2heud of the official report. This great “scoop of the Associated Press, following so closcly upon the beat waich it scored in the story of the sinking of ee Spanish cruiser Barcastegui 0 n colis- off Morro Castle at tbe eatrance of the or of Havana, has gttracted muea at- tention. More Exclusive News. NEW YORK, October 3.—Another his- torical beat was Scored by the Asociated Press yesterday, and repeated this morning in the full details from Constantinople di- rect of the sericus rioting there, the killing of about two hundred Armenians by the Turkish police, the arrest of about five hun- dred Armenians, the alarm of the Turkish gcvernment and the measures taken to pre- vent further disturbances. The AssociatedPress had exclusively the first news of this outbreak Monday, and yesterday afterncon sent out about 700 wcrds of the details from Constantinople, following it up with about 1,500 words of additional matter, direct from the scene-of the disturbances last night. The newspapers of the United Press, yes- terday afternoon, did not have a line of this matter, and this morning they had not a word direct from Constantinople, having to be content with extracts from London newspapers, which published the Reuter dis- patches previously sent to the Associated Press. It would be diflicult to point to a more glaring example of the ineffi , the Associated Press had ex- yesterday afternoon, the state- ment of Sir Halliday Macarthy, counsellor lon, showing Then ag: that China seems to have duped Great Britain in the matter of degradation of the Viceroy Pre: of Szechuen, and the Associated ss had exclusively, yesterday, the full y of the-panishment of Prince Henry of Prussia. ——_— Transfers of Real Estate.
