Strikers Vote to Stay Out in New Jersey Rail Row
In Jersey City the railroad insurgents voted to stay out over seniority rights after leader Edward McHugh failed to secure action from the Railroad Labor Board. Staten Island trolley service could halt Tuesday if Richmond Light and Railroad Company does not reach a wage agreement following the Albany setback.

Bills Raising Trolley Fare Are Defeated in Assembly
In Albany on April 22, the Jenks and Crews trolley fare bills were beaten in the Assembly. Only one New York City member, Assemblyman O. J. Smith, voted for the two measures while George A. Forbell of Kings voted for one bill but switched on the second. Charges of railroad lobby influence were voiced on the floor as Speaker Sweet ignored calls to curb lobbyists. The first bill failed 66 to 77. the second failed 61 to 78 after Forbell shifted. Assemblyman Edmund Jenks urged reconsideration but faced resistance from Assemblyman McCue, who argued it would aid rail interests. The reconsideration motion passed 88 to 54, with only one absence. The bills would have allowed municipalities and traction firms to raise fares or permit the Public Service Commission to set higher fares after failed negotiations. The session’s late introduction and sparse debate are blamed for the bills’ demise.
