If No Settlement is Reached By March
25, It it Predicted That a Struggle
l^ay Come, the Like of Which Has
Never Before Been Seen.
^Newcastle, Pa.—The State Feder
ation of Labor officials have ordered
the Philadelphia unions to make an
other effort to secure arbitration with
the Rapi«i Transit Company. Falling
in this, all state labor will be called
out in fifteen days, March 25.
The governcrr will be asked to take
a hand. If this fails, the* committee
lecommends that the executive board
take up the matter with Senators Pen
tose and Oliver, and ask their aid in
briDoinfi^ About a settlement.
If the senators are unable to bring
gbout a settlement the committee will
appeal to President Taft. If settle
ment is not reached through these
channels the committee will then noti-
fy every local union in the state to be
ready to lay down their tools within
the next fifteen days.
General Strike Spreading.
Philadelphia.—The general strike is
spreading. Several thousand workers
went out as the result of the State
Federation of Labor action in calling
for a state-wide, strike. Labor offi
cials declared that between 145,000
and 150,000 men and women had left
their shops and offices. General en
couragement was manifest as a re
sult of the action taken at Newcastle
that may ultimately bring on a strug
gle of national scope. Both sides are
prepaHng for the greatest struggle be
tween labor and capital that an Aiper-
ican state has ever seen. The unions
are devoting their energies to forming
the workers, whether organized now
or not, into a compact body. At the
same time the employers are making
preparations for the contest.

New Orleans.—In denying the re
ports of thp demoralization of General
Estrada’s forces in Nicaragua, letters
received here by Consul General Rich
ard Sussman, of the revolutionary fac
tion, state that men, ammunition and
supplies are being rushed into the in
terior to Generals Mena, Charmoro
and Natuty, and that there is no lack
of enthusiasm among the followers of
the cause
is as
strong today as it was months ago,
when the glorious victory at Rama
was attained.**
Among the Central American col
ony, however, d^ded skepticism of
this optimism is expressed and the
complete victory of Madriz, in accord
ance with press dispatches, is be
lieved in, with the exception of cer
tain irreoonciliable partisans of the
insurgent movement
