(United rrM ltrt W1r.)
Philadelphia, March 1 2. With hank
ing and financial Interests , keeping
hands off, with President Taft and hi
advisers understood to agree that they
cannot, intervene, undwUJi the strikers
and official both claiming victory, the
car and general striken in Philadelphia
oem far from settlement tonight,
Ruslness Interests ant civic organlta
Hons are bringing to bear every bit of
pressure tney can exert to force a set
tlement. The strikers still maintain
their willingness to arbitrate, but the
Philadelphia Rapid Transit company,
which brought about the monster gen
eral strike by refusing to treat with
the men, still obstinately refuses to ac
tept wrbltration.
The committee of 30 .representative
business men from various civic bodies,
seeking to effect a settlement, has r
quested C. O. Pratt, strike leader, and
Krancla Brown, transit company attor
ney, to meet them in an effort to find
some middle ground upon which arht
' tratlon may bo attained. Pratt has sig
nified his willingness to attend.
Kfforts to get bankers and financial
Interests to bring pressure to force the,
car cumpany to arbitrate will probably
fall. Financial men are unwilling to be
en mo Involved
It Is conceded that Philadelphia busi
ness men are losing millions dally as a
result of the great general strike. Even
those plants where the men are still
working report big orders canceled by
out-of-town merchants, which eancella-
lion has caused much loss.
Grand Campaign of Organizing.
If the tie-up continues another week,
UOO.OOO men will be out, strike leaders
declare. They declare no further effort
will be made to get out big bodies of
men until the arrival early next week
r trHlned natlfmal organizers.
"We want to be able to organise these
nonunion men Into unions as soon as we
net them," they declared.
Textile, hosiery and yarn manufac
turers employing 30,000 men closed their
plants this week, to reopen Monday, with
.the threat that unless their employes
returned then . they would close down
until fall. They declare their spring
business will be ruined by a tie-up now.
Serious consequences are expected If
the unions carry out their expressed
plan to force every employer of union
labor In Philadelphia to sign new and
higher wage scales unless the street
car strike is settled by Monday. fc,m
ployers of thousands of men on strike
lire willing to take their men back at
the present scale, but would resist
demand for higher wages.
.Mayor Rayburn announced this even
Ins that he was not opposed to arm
tration. He said he hoped it was pos
slble. but he would have no hand In it
Georsre 11. Karle, one of the city's rep
resentatives in the transit company, said
he had once tendered his ivsignatlon so
he could fight for better wages ana
hours for the men, but that Pratt's
union broke faith and he had withdrawn
his resignation and would fight to the
last
President Murphy of the Central
Labor union said tonight that the strik
crs had sufficient aid to prolong the
strike. The Central Labor union of Chi
.ago, he said, would give $50,000 a week
St. Louis $30,000 a weeK, ana san r ran
clsoo $25,000.
The strike leaders will concentrate
ti.i.ir cffrirtM next week nnon CramD'S
shipyards, the Mldvale steel works and
the Pencoyd iron works, employing in
all 50,000 men on the open shop plan.
Thev (inclaip thev have rot out so many
men at Disston's big saw works that the
plant will nave to close xuonaay.
Injured Passengers in Interur
ban Wreck Forced to Pay
for Rides and Berths.
Inhumanity of Oregon & Washington
railway trainmen la strikingly brought
out In & statement made by J. Gordon
Turnbull, a consulting engineer of Port
land, who aided in the rescue work fol
lowing the wreck of two interurban
trains near Auburn, Wash., Thursday
night.
Mr. Turnbull was on his way to Port
land on the Oregon & Washington train
which was flagged, and which carried
six of the wounded passengers of one
of the interurban trains to Tacoma,
"Our train was flagged by one of
the men who was a passenger on the
interurban train which ran down the
freight train," said Mr. Turnbull. "At
the point where the wreck occurred
the Railway and Interurban tracks run
side by side.. The. passenger, who had
eeveral ribs broken and was suffering
intensely, forded a stream neck-deep to
reach tne railway tracks.
"Several passengers, myseir among
them, took the six7 more seriously hurt
passengers to our tram and made them
comfortable. Then the train started
for Tacoma. On the way the train
auditor compelled the wounded, one
of them a woman, to pay their fares
charged them for the berth" In which
they were placed. Three of the wound
ed were crazed with .path.. Neverthe
less, the auditor made them pay their
farts."

Professor B. P. Stout, as He
Professor B. P. Stout, the singing re
vivalist of 1a Angeles. Cal.. who has
been holding services at the Taylor
Street Methodist Episcopal church, has
demonstrated beyond measure that
music is a key to the soul and an nid
in the realization of self Impurity.
During the week he has successfully
touched the Inner chord of thousands
who crowded the edifice.
"Prbfeesor B. P. Stout, singing re
vivalist" Is all that a revivalist Is not
expected ro be, and his methods are dis
tinctively not the methods of the re
vivalist. He Is not an orator. Neither
Is he a singer of extraordinary ability.
He Is as business like in his oratory
ns he Is In his singing.
The methods of the singing revivalist
are peculiar and unique. His body Is
plump, and his ruddy face, set off with
a moustache, radiates cheer and Joy
iality. In personal appearance, he Is
the replica of President W. H Taft
and the smile of the executive is his,
too.
He is a living paradox. Unlike pic
tured revivalists he is not dignified,
but neither is he undignified. He al-'
most bustles about the service. He
has a "get together personality.

He Is the personification of energy. He
sways and swings his ample body with
the swells of the music. He moves con
tinually. His body seems the pulse of
the song.
Magnetism of person and energy of
purpose Is the secret of the revivalist's
success. His personality draws. He
goes upon the pulpit and seems, with
sweeping gestures, to fight for souls.
His Is a belligerent campaign against
the devil, a warfare for righteousness.
He Is battling, but pleading. He la
positive, not negative. He denounces
sin. but expends more effort in praising
Ood.
The effect tf lts magnetic personality
on the auditors Is worthy of note. His
art is forcefullness and he compels the
audience to participate in the singing.
Then he leaves them to the spell of
the music.

New York. Marth 13.- The long and
far-reaching search for Miss . Helen

fortuno of William Hloodgood of this
city, came to an unexpected end this
afternoon when, by a strange accident,
she wax found dead In the waters of
Lake ( 'a rasa I Jo. less ,nan a mile from
the cottage where she had been living
in Lakewoort, N. J.
The fourth day of the exciting pursuit
of false clues wa coming to a closu
when William Pendel and John Haughty,
two boatmen employed by Bloodgood
to search the lake, heard cries for help

one of the fashionable Lakewood
hotels.
The boatmen put out In a skiff and
about 30 yards off Tine Point they res

the overturning of his rowboat.

These boatmen had been dragging the
lake with grappling Irons for two days
sod believed they had covered every
fool of the bottom, but now. with tho
disturbance of the water at this parti
cular point by the capsizing of Cassel's
boat, the body of the girl was disen
tangled from the weeds at the bottom
of the lake and came to the surface
They towed the body to tho Kissing
bridge, a narrow span across the inlet
to the lake, which, according to all
theories, was most likely the place from
which Miss Bloodgood leaped to her
death a few minutes after her estte
from the cottage. The body was clad
In only a wight robe which Miss Mac
Arthur, one of the nurses said she wore
when she leaped from the window anil
fled in the dawn of last Wednesday

would be of service to an enemy, and
to transfer all the troops and resident
