Urns ware affected to soma extent Com mutara this morning In many cases took the atraat railways or buia to avoid the cruih at tha railway atatlon and In thu tubes, wher tha elevator men caused trouble by Joining- tha strikers after work ing for two hours. London's elaborate underground system Including the Metropolitan District rail ways had difficulty In operating because ot a strike of the men at one station, East ham, through which no trains could pass. Thus at times trafflo was hald up for a considerable period. The union leaders this afternoon ex . leased themselves as satisfied with the re sponse to the strike order. They claimed that 200,000 men had quit work. Two Hundred Thousand Oat. James Henry Thomaa, labor member of Parliament for Derby and Assistant Secre tary of tha Amalgamated Society of Rail way Servants, Issued a statement In which he aaserted that the strikers had almost paralysed the whole railway system of the United Kingdom. Tha government proposal for a royal commission was considered by Joint com mittee of the railway societies during the forenoon, but the men did not change or altar their position, that the managers must deal directly with them, in th slight est degree. The Great Western railroad and the Great Central railway appeared to be the most seriously affected. The officials of the former lines candidly confessed their Inability to afford the usual service, but elalmed that the modified schedule which was drawn up when the strike threatened was working smoothly. Troops were In oontrol of their London station at Padding ton while the police and troops guarded tha signal boxes and locomotive car works. The Great Western has four principal route covering In a general way the terri tory from Dover and London to Liverpool and connecting the ocean ports with Lon don, South Wales, the midlands and the west of England. It possesses the largest mlleuge of any railway In the United King dom, the company owning ,527 miles of road and partly owning 244 miles more. Oav Train oat Great Central. Only one train oama In over th Great Central railway this morning. This road operates IM miles. Its branches reaching out to Liverpool and Manchester. The other lines were getting their trains In and out of th city and those running to the south coast were selling return tick ets, though they abandoned part of the sub urban service In order to maintain more en the longer lines. Many roada succeeded during the night In clearing their lines of perishable freight by keeping their freight trains running. at passenger speed. The conditions In the provinces were somewhat more serious than In and about London. F.arly In the day word came from Birmingham that West F.nglsnd was com pletely cut off. Psssenger trains on the Midland railroad In other directions were running aa usual, but freight trafflo on soma branches had been stopped. There was some disorder at Birmingham. At Manchester business waa at a stand still, aa the teamsters were atlll out to day, while at Liverpool the chaoa waa com plete. With the exception of a few Incom ing trains all were late, the train service at Liverpool being practically suspended. The three passenger atatlons In that city were besieged with passengers.

Legg made a medal score of 76 for the eighteen and Magee 78. Neither man played a spectacular game, both playing carefully for every hole. Magee produced the only thrills of the match when he rsn down two putts, one for thirty on No. 4 and on for thlrty-flve feet on No. 6. Magee started off poorly, getting I for one, 1 for two snd 6 for No. t, but after that he settled down and no more sixes appeared on his csrd. The last four holes of the first nine were halved by the pair, but Legg was already I up on Magee when they reached the sixth. The last nlna was played even, Magee pulling himself out of a bad hole on nine by a beautiful approach . shot. His game all through th day would have been easier for him perhaps and probably pro ductive of a better score but for the fact that he was driving wildly. Magee.

TENDENCIES 0F BILLBOARDS Missouri Sopreui Court Declares Them a Menace to Health and Morale. A billboard decision that Is likely to be come historic has been handed down by the supreme court in Missouri. This was an appeal taken In the caae of the Gunning company against the city of St. Louts. The Issue at stake waa an ordinance regu lating very severely the construction, re pair and erection of advertising signs and . billboards. The opinion, which Is written by Judge A. M. Woodson, says In part: "There Is but one virtue connected with this entire business, and that Is the adver tising Itself. This is a legitimate and hon orable business, if honorably and legiti mately conducted, but every other feature and Incident thereto has evil tendencies, and should for that reason be strictly regu lated and controlled. The sign-boards and billboards upon which this class of adver tisements are displayed ar constant menaces to th public safety and welfare of the city; they endanger the public health, promote Immorality, constitute hid ing places and retreats for criminals and all classes of miscreants. They ar also Inartistic and unatghtiy. While ad- vertlalng. as before stated, is a legitimate and honorable business, yet the evils Inci dent to thla class of advertising ar nwrt numerous and baa In character thaa ar those incident to numerous other busi nesses which are considered mala In se; and which for that reason may not only be regulatfd and controlled, but which may b entirely suppressed for tha public good under the police power of th state. My , Individual opinion la that this class of ad vertising as now conducted la not only subject to control snd regulation by the police power of the state, but that It might be entirely suppressed by statute, and that, too, without offending against either the state or federal constitution."
