McDonald’s Office—Ar- bitration Is Accepted on Both Sides, butaFirst Strikers Must Ratify It. Meeting Was Attended by Represent- atives of the Central Federated Union, Which Undertakes that the Men Shall Return to Work, Differences to Be Adjusted Afterward. An agreement was reached this afternoon between the sub-contractors om the subway and the Central Federated Union representing the striking excavators and rockmen. The meeting was held in John B. McDonald's office. . By this agreement, which remains to be ratified by the strikers, they are to return to work and the question of wages 4s to’ be submitted bo arbitration. It is believed that the men will all be back at work in lorty-elght hours, The sub-contractors are not working in harmony. The Degnon-Mc- Lean Company was not represented at the meeting. Mr. Degnon refused bo treat with the Central Federated Union committee. He is in favor of ‘Alling the places of the strikers unless they return to work without nego- Mations, His company has 6,000 negroes at work in Maryland building the Western Maryland Railroad, and could import 2,000 without difficulty. Whe negroes would work for $1.40 a day. A meeting of the Interborough Compa: which is to operate the Pubway in connection with the Manhattan was ‘held this afternoon, md reports concerning the strike were made by Mr. McDonald. What dotion was taken could not be learned. BROOKLYN TROUBLE A MISUNDERSTANDING. Investigation showed to-day that the trouble among the Italian Iabor- ers of Brooklyn yesterday resulted Jargely from a misunderstanding. ‘There are rival organizations of the men, one the American Federation of Wabor, with headquarters at No. 143 Hudson street, and thé other the ‘National Labor Association, with headquarters at No. 74 Troy street.” Edson Lawrence, President of the latter ‘body, ‘called out his men. ‘The American Fedératfon, which has three times as many members, thought the order came from their own officers and they obeyed it, too. When they found they were mistaken there were confusior and quar- Subsequently the Federation also ordered a strike. reis. ‘violence yesterday ‘were surprisingly quiet to-day, due possibly to the vigor- ‘ous treatment that was accorded them by the police. Another deterrent to violence was the axivice of their leaders, who counselled them at all their meetings last night to remain at home until the strike Is settled. The subway and all public works in the boroughs of Brooklyn and the Bronx were under police guard to-day. The police were ready for business. They wore their old clothes, carried nightsticks in thelr hands and loaded revolvers in their pockets. A few of the strikers returned to work In the Bronx. The Italians in that part of the city were more concerned about the affairs of their union lo-day than about getting others to quit work. It was rumored about their headquarters that one of their leaders had fled to Italy with $7,000 of the $18,000 fund they had raised for strike purposes, If this {s true it will break the strike in the Bronx. Inspector Titus said that if there had been a defalcation it had not been reported to him. There was no trouble to-day {n this city and the police said they did not believe any would occur. TROUBLE AT THE BIG DAM. A successful demonstration by several hundred Italian strikers before [,,> the diggers and shovellera who reported for work at the Muscoot Dam to- Bi day was the first labor disturbance of the day, The laborers at work on the dam for Contractor John B, McDonald |> had announced their satisfaction with the wages paid and said they would not strike. But the strikers, who have harassed the McDonald contracts, especially along the subway, said they would drive the men from the trenches, and they appeared at the dam several hundred strong shortly before 7 o'clock. The first laborers to start to work were hooted and howled at. A few stones were thrown, and as the number of laborers increased a leader in the \crowd of strikers shouted a phrase ip Italian and a dash was made upon the works. Before the yelling and maddened mob the laborers dropped their tools and fled, Then the strikers sent up a shout ‘of victory. Word was sent for the police. The strikers became aware of this and, not wishing to mix up with the police, who, following the riots of yesterday, were ready to use their weapons, the strikers disappeared down the valley. When they haa gone some of the frightened laborers were inducod to return to their work, Of all the Italians arrested during the rioting in Brooklyn not one wan unarmed, and most of them carried sillettos, while the others had revolvers Gina nealttance of the pollse that the conitbetare hover ce ei ee oe tilling to take the places of the Ttallans, Store have bean able to And men CANFIELD PLANS WOULD STOP A TO SAIL IN JUNE. | NEEDLESS WASTE, eave England for Saratoga] Prope 10 | for Non-Paymen’ mand oe Ready rersne eecire ere Tala is Cont Be the cal The city is paying $10,000 dollars a LONDON, May 5.—It Ls not true that The striking <«owvators and rockmen who sought to win thelr point by | * | and the attendance was up to the large Richard Canfield sailed a week ago for ‘America.
