Philadelphiai March 10. Despite the
excitement created last night by the
"shooting up" of one oftha principal
thoroghfaree by a trolley carload of
alleged strike breakers from St. Louia
there were no serious demonstrations
against the trolley ears in operation
early to day.
C. 0.. Pratt the organizer, of the car
men, denounces we attair, wnicn oc
curred on Frankford avenue snd result
ed in three men and a 14-year-old girl
being taken fo the hospital suffering
from bullet wounds received when the
trolleymen fired from the swiftly mov
ing car into the crowd. He said it was
the usual last resort of the Heeperate
strike-breakers, who, finding everything
quiet, shot up a town to indicate trouble
The victims of the bullets are not seri
ously hurt. !
Although many lines were running
today without any sign of trouble much
apprehension was fell; as to the out
come of the feeling stirred up by last
night's attack. The police are trying
rto fix the blame for the reckless gun
play. It is alleged that the strike
breakers', on learning that one of their
number had been injured by a stone
thrown while -he was operating a car.
decided to get revenge and took out a
trolley without the permission of the
company. Running down Frankford
avenue, they shot, into every crowd
they saw and quickly returned to the
barn by a cross-over switch. Notwith
standing Director of Public Safety Clay
declared the general strike feeling is on
the wane, the labor leaders declare they
are steadly gaining ground. Many
meetings of unorganized worker are
being addressed by prominent labor
organizers daily and nightly.
Many converts to the cause of trades
unionism are reported, some of the
special dispensations are being with
drawn by the union, and it was declared
that 600 bakers would today join the
strike.

and says he found the people in fine
spirits everywhere he went, except in
the case of the cotton mill men. These,
he says, are depressed over the situa

price of cotton, the low prices they are
receiving for their outputs of cotton
yarns and the steadily decreasing mar
ket for their products. Dr. Dixon de
clares that he found the milt men re

Board of Health Hold Meeting to
; Decide Whether to Quaran
tine Against Oriental.
' Yesterday afternoon the Board of
Health met at the sity hall for the pur
pose of investigating the advisability of
quarantining this city against the town
of Oriental in Pamlico county,, where
smallpox is now raging.
1 After .discussing the matter the
Board finally came to the conclusion
that to send two physicians to that town
and let them investigate the true state
of affairs and report same to the. Board
before any action was taken, would be
the best plan. After this question was
satisfactorily decided Drs. Primrose and
Patterson were chosen as the two phy
sicians to investigate, and they will
leave for that place this morning.
There see.ns to be a faction there be
tween the people as the following let
ter from one of the hea'th officers there
plainly shows:

Board of Health Gentlemen:
A very regretable state of affairs ex -ist
in Oriental. A political and physi
cian's fight. Brother argued against
brother, neighbor against neighbor, not
for the safety ofhealth and life, but to
see who shall win seems to be the clam
or. I am doing ajl in my power to try
and keep peace and harmony within the
ranks, but I find it hard to please any
or all. If I do, I offend. If I do, I
offend. If I do not I stid offend, not so
it places me in awkward position. I have
been abused for not quarantining the
town. I went to work Monday to at
tempt to quarantine all houses with any
contagious diseases, whatever they may
be. I find great opposition from the
faction that wanted quarantine. They
oppose absolute quarantine not allowing
any one to pasg in or out the, house
K(when coming indirect communication)
In one. case their physician and the fam
ily, forbade us entering the house, lock
ing the door, and even forbade us put
ting up q larantine flags. We want to
be honest and fair, and want to use ev
ery precaution to prevent the city of
New Bern quarantining against us, as
it will be an inconvenience to us an,d a
lack of a great many dollars to New
Betn trade and interest. I wish to ask
you what y u require of us to prevent
being quarantined against. Your rep
resentatives were in the town of Ori
untal today, but I was not notified of
their c;ming and was away. It seems
to me they should have notified the
town commissioners and myself and our
health officer, and held a c-msultation
and gone to the homes of the affected
: persons and examined them, and seen
: if they were properly quarantined to
i meet the demand of New Bern. In
stead of that they went with those
whom were making the fight against
the town board hsalth officers etc, and
pronounced the cases examined small
pox, aud improperly quarantined. Af
terwards our health officer and one of
the aldermen sought them out, and
found them and got them to examine
returned home Tuesday morning after
a few days visit with relatives at this "ther cases and discuss the matter of
