STRIKE OF THE LINEMEN

SMALL 1)1 NT I H 11 E AT LAFAYETTE PARTLY SETTLED Hi COl'XCIL. Milton Bank President May Be Prosecuted New and Enlarged Industries Brief Run on a Bank. Special to th- Indianapolis Journal. LAFAYETTE. Ind.. June 2D. Electrical workers employed by the Lafayette Telephone Company went on a strike to-day, but at a conference this afternoon it was decided to return to work, the groundmen being the only ones still out. For some time there has been a question as to what hour the men should report for duty in the morning. It has been the custom of the linemen to report at 7 o'clock and get their tools and material. The company desired that the men be at work by 7 o'clock, coming down earlier to get tools and material. The men refused to do this and to-day Manager Friberg would not allow the men to return to work until an understanding was reached. The fifty men employed by the company sat on the courthouse s'airs and awaited developments. Later the electrical workers held a meeting and a committee was appoint- 1 to meet with the manager. It was decided that the men should start work at 7 o'clock, the company agreeing to have ail preliminary work done by the wagon men. Another meeting of the union was held and the men decided to return to work tomorrow. All the men belong to the Electrical Workers' Union and receive 12.50 a day for nine hours' work. The groundmen asked for a nine-hour day and the request was not granted. They will remain idle. FEARS OF A COlXTRYMA Cause a Brief Run on a National Bank1 at Martinsville. Special to the Indianapolis aournal. MARTINSVILLE. Ind.. June 29 The First National Bank of this city suffered considerable annoyance to-day when it opened for busines. by having a run of an hour or two of small depositors for what little money they had on deposit. The run was caused by an innocent country deposl tor, who came to town about 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon and went to the bank to make a deposit. Banks here formerly closed at 4 o'clock, but have been closing at 3 o'clock each day for two years past, but the depositor did not know this. When he stepped up to the bank door Saturday and saw the placard "closed." and asked a bystander what it meant that the door was closed, the bystander said, "have closed up," meaning for the day. The man wanting to make the deposit took it that the bank had suspended and the report started from this. After the matter was explained to the countryman's satisfaction, it was too late to recaH it, for the report spread rapidly and was freely talked of all day Sunday. Depositors were In town early from the country, and could not altogether be persuaded that all was right, and a small run occurred that lasted for an hour or two, but of no great proportions. In the neighborhood of $10,000 was withdrawn, but the bank had about $90,000 available cash, and more if need be. Business men of the city responded quickly and aided in trying to quiet the fears of those who had deposits and were successful in stemming the tide after a little time. Many of the heavier depositors during the two hours of the run made heavy deposits, which soon assured the timid ones that the bank was not regarded at all shaky, and the bank this afternoon was running along in its usual normal condition.

This gift is a passage of scripture; it is my sacred mojto, and reads thus: M 'Trust in the Lord and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land and verily thou shalt be fed. " 'Delight thyself also in the Lord; and He shall give thee the desire of thine heart. " 'Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him; and he shall bring it to pass. " 'And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday'. "Beloved, some of you have come long distances to kneel with us in sacred silence in blessed communion, unity of faith, understanding, prayer and praise, and to return in joy bearing your sheaves with ycu. "In parting I repeat to those dear members of my church, trust In truth and have no other trust. To-day is fulfilled, the prophecy of Isaiah 'and the ransomed of the Lord shall return and co.m- to Zion with stones and everlasting Joy upon their heads, they shall obtain joy and gladness and sorrow and sighing shell flee away."
