Street Car Strike at Indianapolis All
But Won Militia Sympathizes

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 7. The
streetcar strike here seemed all hut
won this afternoon. In the wny of
better conditions it was recognized
that tho men inicht not cct nil they
wnnt, hut it wn practically ccrnin
Ihnt they would get what they asked
arbitration.
The traction company nssumed the
linucbtic-t of attitudes nt tho begin
ning of tho struggle. His men did
not wnlk out. President Robert T.
Todd declared, of their own will, hut
becau-c tlirv were coerced info doing
so bv outside agitntors. He swore
lie would never accept arbitration.
Within twelve hours not n wheel wns
turning on his system. All efforts to
tnovo cars failed, and ns n result of
them four men were killed, thirty or
forty injured and scores arrested.
Militia Called Out
Finally Governor Ralston called out
the state's entire national guard. Not
many more than half of the militia
men answered the call. They poured
into tho city on five special trains
yesterday afternoon. Having called
them, the governor hesitated to uso
the soldiers. He delayed his procla
mation of martial law, held tho out-of-town
troops in tho city's outskirts
and shut the local companies up in
the statehouso basement. The sol
diers were wild with indignation over
their treatment.
They sympathised openly, loo,
with tho sinkers, and it was clearlv
doubtful if in n clash' they couM be
induced to fight tho traction com
pany's battle.
Mllltln Sympathetic
In tho meantime, under heavy
pressure, tho company had consent
ed to submit n proposition to the
strikers. If tho out-of-town officers
of their international union would

wero immediately disbanded, Presi
dent Todd snid he would take nil for

conditions, nml at tho end of thirty
days consider individual grievances,
submitting them to tho state public
utilities hoard's arbitration, if the

Before Governor Ralston, as ref
eree, the strikers rejected this offer
todny without even slopping to dis

proosition. They would waive union
recognition for tho present, Ihey
