A roaring wart of exclamations
Ilka this flooded "Billy" Bun day and
"Ma" Sunday at the Auditorium yes
terday moraine, when 1,000 letter
carriers from all over the United
States crowded upon the plaform to
hake hands with the pair, Just after
Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Sunday had ad
dressed the, letter carriers' conven

ana tried to sain "Duiy's" attention k.rig
enough to soil htm a shirt. When
"Kllly" didn't buy. the Mlnaman told
"Ms," en hlrn, handed bar his nerd, and

for the evening revival had been raised
to si.
Take l Peaslea' Flskt,
"Dllly" Sunday told the letter carriers
that he was familiar with their fight tor
a- retirement pension, and that he was
going to take up the fight. "I am
raml.lar with it, and I ant going to
preach It" said the evangelist. A great
roar of applause followed this announce
ment. Sunday told of his base ball experience,
of the catch he made In the field when
the pennant depended upon It, of how he
appealed to Ood. "Oh. Lord. If you" erver
helped mortal man, help me to catch
this fly, and you ain't got much time to
make up your mind."
And in his own Inimitable words,
"There was a big crowd of spectators

Tied sea for the wand of Moses, . I
reached out my band, the bait hit It and

"Ma" Sunday told the letter carriers of
the carrier she remembers best She said
his name was Stevens. He was the man
ho carried "Billy's" love letters to her
many years sgo, "That man told me not
to marry 'Billy Bunday," shs said. "I
asked him why and he said 'Billy was
such a fast runner he would run away
from me. I told him he was simply mad
about It because 'Billy was writing so
many letters that he had to carry. Borne
o( them were actually forty-eight pages
long, and they never said a thing except
how lonesome he was."
' Jt was when Mrs. Bunday had finished
that the crowd rushed up en the stage
just tike a crowd of converts "hitting the
trail."
Part of the resolutions were considered
at the morning session. According to the
resolutions each branch of the national
association Is ta secure all possible data
regarding the new system of reduction of
salaries for carriers In the collection serv

It was also resolved that toe much
power rests In the hands of superiors In
the various offices, and that the associa

ruling that will make a man's Job good
during good behavior Instead of being
dependent upon the wishes If a supertor.
The resolutions endorsed the Ham mil

resolution ta be more considerate of the
health and welfare of employes In some

Amid uproarious applause and some
confusion, caused by an Insistent

question him. the Rrltlsh minister of
munitions addressed a peeked hall of
trade unionists here this afternoon,
striking the keynote of hie speech
with the declaration that the war
had resolved itself Into a conflict be

As between British and German work
men, the minister said he believed the
British were the better.
The trades union congress adopted vtr-
tually without opposition at today's
slon a resolution presented by the Rail
way Clerks union sn the subject of re

"That this congress, being convinced
that the Issues Involved In the present

speeches in support of tns resolution
that It was no part of tha teaching of

man to turn the other cheek to the man
who smites him. One speaker said that
If, when "dear Brother Ft1ts" Invaded
