‘ REMEDIES TO AVOID STRIKES, Board of Arbitration Listens to Suggestions from Both Sides, STATE. SHOULD OWN ROMS Connelly Says that’s His Plan for Legislative Action. NORTON WANTS NOTICE GIVEN. Ten Days, or Even Five, Would Do to Act In, He Says—Wire Cut. ters Known to Him. The first witness before the Board of Mediatior. and Arbitration which met at 10 o'clock this morning In the Hotel Bt. George, Brooklyn, was Master Work- man Martin E. Connelly, of b, A. 1%, K. of L. He came before the Board at 11.90. President Purcell stated theobject of the meeting, which was to ascertain the causes of the strike and what sug- gestions could be offered as to legisla- tive remedy. Connel.y said: “Before £ say anything, I shoule like to know if the President of the Brooklyn Heights Company has given his evidence yet." President Lewis's testimony, taken yesterday, was read to Connelly. As ulready published, it was to the effect that tne Company refused to allow its employees to dictate the way te run the road. “As far as the strike is concerned,” said Connelly, “It would never have oc- curred had not the Brooklyn Heights Company toeked out a number of electricians.” He said the evening before the strike was ordered, the men were asked If they would take the place of motormen on Monday, They refused and were locked out, Then the companies refused to make the contract asked for. President Purcell asked: “Have you any suggestions to make as to legisla- Uon to remedy these strikes?" “I would suggest that the people own and control the “allroads in the State of New York,” replied Connelly. “1 should like to see the city of Brooklyn own the roads.” Connelly then proceeded to go into the details of the contract, but President Purcell cut him off. Connelly charged that the companies had violated the law by requiring and accepting more than ten hours’ work from their men per day. ‘The law of 1892 makes that a misde- meancr punishable by a fine of $500 for each violation. The State authorities, fhowever, made no attempt to enforce it. Thenext witness was John H. Giblin, He is the Secretary of D. A. 7. He cor- roborated Connelly as to the cause of the strike, und added that the companies were trying to abolish $2 cars and replace them by $1.50 trippers. Also that the companies refused to arbitrate, He sug- gested that a law should be passed to make arbitr: tion compulsory, He was asked by President Purcell if the men would accept such arbitration. He replied that they certainly would, He urged that courts should render decisions on strike questions at once. If this had been done in the present case the strike would have been settled long ago. W. H. Holcombe, a member of the Executive Committee, of D. A. 7%, testl- fied that in his opinion there were three causes for the strike—the violation of the State Ten-Hour law; the refusal to advance skilled labor men as motormen to $2.25 a day from $2, and the “tripper” difference, to wit, asking men to per- form work by waiting without pay. Mr. Holcombe, as President Purcell re- marked, mude the most practical sug- gestions of any made for legisiative re- Nef. He strongly favored a legislative act making all differences between com- panies and thel: employees subject to compulsory arbitration, and he believed the men would accept as final the de- cision of the arbitrators, But, he sald, labor should also be repre- sented in the Board of Arbitration—dis- sension would otherwise ensue. He sug. gested that in addition to he three origi- nal members of the State Board of Medi- ftion. and” Arbitration, when arbi fration came up, each side of the matter to be arbitrated should be empowered to pelect two. representatives, making the fotal Board seven In number, thelr decl- sion tfaeae Joti N. ridge, of the De Kalb avenue line, called next. He was given tue privilege of submitting his views both 48 to causes of the strike and legislative amendment in writing to the Committee. President Benjamin Norton, of the At- Jentic Avenue line, was toe next wit n He gave as the cause of th strike the attempt of the employees to Gictate how the lines should be run and how the men should be paid. AS a legislative suggestion, he sald, a bill should be passed requiring the men | yD notify the companies ten days before pet intended strike for an increase of aren “The companies sould also be Tequired to give the men ten days’ no- tice of any reduction in wage: SFwitmw cen days" notice. ves, with ve days’ notice, Ww etary five days poly employee on our fin he said. ve turned away men, to-day, and we have more applicants than we G8 We places to “There ought also to b restricting the represe' Ibbor orgunization jt wer emipio} in “our empl this organization formed’ that they wou thing to do with a sirll have joined, and since the have been told to out and work half of our old men pickets oF stay wt home under fear of | lng killed, 4 dared, would ne He gney, oad bud were deterred b threat eeutting on his system of roads had ee done by thirty-five of the road's betrmployees.

The Ohinese Attack on Japanese Ends iu Defeat Turks Still Oppress Unfortunate Christians in Armenia. YOKOHAMA, Jan. %.—A despatch received here from Gen, Nodau gives details of the fighting which occurred between the Japanese and Chinese troops at Hai-Cheng on Jan. 2 He says that the Japanese waited until the Chinese were but 600 yards away and then a large portion of the Fifth In- fantry Brigade. with a battalion of the Nineteenth Infant supported by three batteries of artillery, charged and turned the Chinese left flank. The enemy fled in confusion towards New- Chang. Chinese prisoners state that the Chinese attack was conducted by Gens, Chang-Shlng and Iku-Tang. The Chinese numbered 20,000 men. OMciat despatches from Yung-Cheng- Ker state that the second batch of Japanese transports completed the land- ing of the troops by noon on Jun. 22. The enemy made but little resistance. During the afternoon of Jan, 21 heavy firing was heard in the direction of Wel-Hal-Wel and the Japanese out- posts in the evening reported seeing the flashiag of electric lights. TOKIO, Jan. 26—Gen. Nodau reports that 8,000 Chinese troups. commanded by Gens. Sung and Chang, are in the vicin!- ty of Ying-Kow Gen. Heu has occupied Neu-Chwang, and the Chinese yesterday renewed the attack upon Hat-Cheng, and were repulsed after a short engage- ment, HIROSHIMA, Jan. %.—A despatch from Admiral Ito announces that the Chinese warships are atill lying In the harbor of Wei-Hal-Wel, and he adds that the Chinese forts and torpedo boat: opened fire on the Japanese fleet on Jan, 21, but without effect. The fring mentioned in the despatch from Yung-Cheng-Ken undoubtedly re- fers to tne ineffective cannonade an- nounced by Admiral Ito, and the elec- tric lights which the Japanese outposts in the direction of Wel-Hal-Wel must have been those of the Chinese warsiips and forts which were turned upon the Japanese fleet. —. NO MERCY FOR ARMENIANS. Confirmed Pernecutions Continue. CONSTANTINOPLE, Jan, %.—The Court of Cassation has confirmed the judgment of the Court of Erzinghiam, by which twenty-four Armenians were condemned to death and thirty-four others were sentenced to Imprisonment. The declaion of the Court of Cassation has caused strong feeling among the Armentana. LONDON, Jan. 26.—A despatch to the Speaker from Constantinople says that persecutions of Armenians in Armenia and in Asia Minor are proceeding as vigorously as before, adding: ‘The Turkish newspapers are evidently under ordens to keep up the excitement, and it Is extremely difficult to get inform: tion from the interior. Even Consul: despatches have been opened in the past, and very few Armenians are al- lowed to come to Constantinople, The Sultan believes that Burope will not actively intervene. “One contingency, however, gives the Sultan anxiety. If the present crisis is prolonged it 13 not Improbable that there will be troubles in Macedonia in the Spring, and {f they are serious Bulgaria, Greece and Servia will in- evitably be involved and the Eastern question wiil be raised in its most acute form.” Ribot Tells Faure He Can Form a Cabinet. PARIS, Jan, 26.—M. Ribot saw Presi- dent Faure to-day and informed him that he believed he could now form a Cabinet, taking the portfollo of Minister of Finances himself, with M.

QUESTIONS WOMEN ASE Owner of Doo Birch Saye Carter| Mere Auswered with Uood Sound Reason. Why do people say that Lydia FE. Pinkham's treatment, especially her Vegetable Compound, effects cures be- yond the physician's skill? Because of the fact that a wo- man best under- stands a wo man’sills, What man ever suf- fered a single pang like unto woman? Man works from theory only. Why do tens of thousands of women write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., telling their most secret thoughts ? Because they know that their letters go straight to the hands of a Woman, are opened, read, and answered by a woman, who as a woman has made woman's ills a life study, and because she never fails them, and cures cases which the doctor eannot. The lady who asks that the following letter be published, gives concisely the uniform expression of gratitude con- tained in thousands of other letters in Mrs. Pinkhain's possession. “For eight years I suffered with neu- ralgia of the womb, backache, severe "JTo-morrow's _GuNDay pains all through mybody, and kid- Ney trouble. None of the doc- tors did me any good. I took twelve bottles of your Vegetable Compound, and cannot thank you enough + for the relief I found. “T am now well cured of all those pains, I should advise every woman to take Lydia E. Pinkham’a Vegetable Compound who has any female trouble, Thad a friend who was to go under an operation. [ advised her first to try the Oompound, She did, and is now so much better and stronger she has given upall thoughts of the operation.” — Mrs, M.
