SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM ABLE TO HANDLE BUSINESS Claim of Telegraph Companies at San Francisco, . San Francisco, June 2.—The situa- tion in the telegraphers’ strike re- mains unchanged, with everything peaceful around the main offices of the companles. The formal notice of the Western Union and Postal Telegraph gompanies to their striking operators to return to work was ignored by the men, as was expected. None returned to work and the chief operators and officials of both companies are busy working at the keys themselves. The company officials said that the refusal of the men to return severed finally thé bond heretofore existing. Superintendent May of the Western Union declared that his company was engaging men, but would not say how many. He said they were coming from all directions and that normal conditions would prevail soon. The officials of both companies claim they are but an hai an hour behind in their work all the time. The gov- ernment business was belng handled, it was sald, without any delay at all. Although meéssages are being han- dled with reasonable promptness so far the companies refuse to take them except subject to indefinite delay, ow- ing to the fear of interference with the wires. TAFT AT SAGAMORE HILL Discusses War Department Affairs With the Presldent, Oyster Bay, L. I, June %3.—Secre- tary of War Taft during the day pald his first visit for this summer to Pres- ident Roosevelt’s home at Sagamore Hill to discuss Cuban, Philippine and other affairs affecting the war depart- ment. This Is the first opportunity the president has had of conferring with the secretary since Mr. Taft’s extended Western trip. “I just ran down to make a bet with the president that Yale will win from Harvard,” said the secretary in a jok- ing manner as he stepped from the train. “Seriously,” he added, “I have a number of matters to go over with the president—Cuban, Philippine and others—all of which are at present in that state where a definite announce- ment cannot be made concerning them.” The secretary was taken in a tour- ing car to Sagamore Hill, where he had luncheon with the president. In the afternoon he left for New Haven to take part in the commencement ex- ercises of Yale university. MANY NOTABLES ATTEND. Luncheon in Honor of Mark Twain in London. London, June : 3.—The finest tribute which Mark Twain (Samuel L. Clem- ens) has received in England was the Pilgrims’ luncheon in his honor. The hosts numbered 150, many of whose names are known both sides of the il Atlantic. Two notable speeches were made, that of Chief Secretary for Ire- land Birrell, introducing Mark Twain, which was classic and full.of humor, concluding with a tribute which brought the company to its feet with prolonged cheering, and Mr. Clemens’ reply, which was largely humorous. The presence of Mr. Birrell and many other members of parliament was particularly complimentary, be- cause in order to attend they were obliged to absent themselves from one of the most important and most inter- esting debates of the session. The committee in charge of the luncheon was obliged to refuse the applications of nearly 1,000 persons of prominence who were anxious to attend. CAUSES MUCH COMMENT. Intention of Government to Assist Japs in Damage Sults. ‘Whashington, June .}—Some com- ment having been excited by the in- structions to United States District Attorney Deviin to assist the propri- etors of the Japanese establishments [in San Francisco in the prosecution of their suits for damages sustained through the mobbing of their places it is explalned by some of the officials that this rather anomalous linking of the national government with a pri- vate plaintiff is brought about through a desire on the part of this govern- ment to redéem its pledge to the ef- fect that the Japanese In America shall enfoy all the rights guaranteed to them by treaty. The necessity of vesorting to this course of action is d-precated and it is said that the out- eome will be an appeal to congress, probably at the next session, to pro- vide by law for the removal from state to federal courts of all issues involv- Ing the treaty rights of resident aliens. CIRCLES OVER NEW YORK Big Clgar-Shaped Airship Makes Suc- ~ cessful Flight. New York, June 2 .—A big cigar- thaped airship sailed acrdss the bay. from Staten island, ciroled around above the high office - buildings in Brooklyn and then swept across East river and alighted gently in the’ midst of a crowd numbering thousands which had gathered in Battery park. A few moments later the operator set the, machinery in motion again and the ship rose tn an altitude of about 500 feet and started northward over the pkyscrapers of Manhattan island. The ship was in charge of Lincoln Beachy. After passing over Manhattan Mr. Beachy sent his airship out over the East river toward Long Island sound. Iy some manner he collided with a spindle which marks a ledge at the Sunken Meadows,” his airship was badly damaged and he was thrown Into the water. He was rescued by a boatman when much exhausted. UNREST I THE Y WINE GROWERS REMAIN FIRM Despite Surrender of Thelr Leader the Federated Committees Decide to Maintain the Civic Strike Through- out the South of France. Paris, June 27.—The government’s hope that the return of Marcellin Al- bert, the leader of the wine growers’ movement, to the South after his in- terview with Premier Clemenceau would result in a change of attitude on the part of his followers has been blasted. The federated committees have decided to maintain the civic strike and the “redeemer” or “apos- tle,” as he is variously termed, has no alternative but to surrender himself to the authorities in accordance With his promise to M. Clemenceau. Never- theless, the excitement in the dis- turbed territory coptinues to subside and the government believes that, barring some unfortunate incident which may again inflame the people, the latter will gradually come to their senses and realize-that a prolongation of the present situation will only in- crease their misery. The government now apparently is as much concerned over the insubordination manifested among the troops as the unrest of the wine growers, for in spite of the ef- forts to minimize them the new out- breaks show that Breaches of Discipline are oceurring in the army daily. The government is now awakened to the necessity of dealing with the de- moralization engendered by the so- cialist anti-military propaganda and the press commends the decisions of the government to exile the mutineers of the Seventeenth infantry and to postpone indefinitely the bill provid- ing for the abolition of courtsmartial in times of peace. The position of the cabinet grows increasingly difficult and M. Clemen- ceau’s sole object seems to be to weather the storm until the summer vacation of parliament affords a breathing spell. The government has announced that it will prosecute the members of the eneral Federation of Labor who signed the manifesto felicitating the Seventeenth infantry upon their mu- tiny and inviting their comrades In the army to follow their example. STUDENTS LEAD AGITATION Confusion in Portuguese Situation In- creasing. London, June 27.—Delayed advices from Lisbon dated June 24 say that the students are now leading the rev- olutionary agitation in the Portuguese capital. On the evening of that date gendarmes dispersed a meeting at which the “Marseillaise” was sung and many persons received saher ‘wounds. The confusion of the national situa- tion is increasing. The consensus of conservative opinion in Lisbon is that England should interfere before either revolution or absolutism precipitates a fatal struggle. Vienna, June, 27.—The crisis in Por- tugal is followed closely here. The contingent chances of Duke Miguel of Braganza in the event of a revolution are watched with the greatest inter- est. Interest in the situation so far as imperial circles are concerned probably centers chiefly in the effect which a republican triumph in Portu- gal would be likely to have in Spain and on the dynasty there. There are reports that Austria and Spain are both bringing pressure on King Carlos to change his form of government to appease popular indignation with a view to preventing trouble, which they believe would not be confined to the limits of his kingdom. NICARAGUA MASSING TROOPS Threatening Conditions Prevall In Central Amerlica. Washington, June 27.—The state de- partment advices by cable from vari- ous points in Central America indicate the continuation of threatening condi- tions in that quarter of the world. American Minister Merry reports from San Salvador that the Nicarag- uan government is massing troops at Point Cozguina. It Is stated also that Nicaraguan forces have appeared on the north coast of Honduras. It is supposed Guatemala and Salvador are preparing to resist what they expect to be a fresh attack from Nicaragua. CROKER WINS IRISH DERBY His Horses Run First and. Second In Blg Event. Dublin, June 27.—Richard Croker’s Orby, winner of the:English derby, won the Irish derby. Mr. Croker’s Georgetown was second. Seven horses started. Big British Cruiser Launched. Glasgow, June 27.—The armored cruiser Inflexible, sister ship of the Tndomitable and Invincible, of twenty- five knots speed, -was launched at Clyde Bank during the day. She is of 17,250 tons displacement, is 530 feet long and cost $8,500,000. Her main battery consists of ¢ight 12-inch guns and her armored helt is six inches thick. £ MILWAUKEE TRIPLE TRA Rejected Lover Kills Sweetheart, Her _Father and Himself. Milwaukee, June 27.—Because an en- raged lover could not brirg about a reconciliation between himself and his Bweetheart he shot and killed. the girl and her father and then himself. The dead are: 3 Andrew s Feine, twenty-five years; Elsie Volkmann, nineteen years; Frank Volkmann, forty-five years. Feine and the Volkmann girl had quarrelled. Volkmann sided with his daughter and Yhis enraged Felne. Two nights ago he called at the Vojkmann fhome and as he was leaving he told Volkmann that he was coming back and when he did something was going to drop. When Felne appeared again he had a large 388-caliber revolver strapped around his waist. He opened i/ fire on Volkmann, who fell dead be- hind the bar of his saloon. Just then her upstairs, overtook her and shot her in the head. She died at the emer- geuney hospital. Feine then leveled the ~revolver at his: own head and fired. He died instantly. SHOOT AT CROWN PRINCE Mungarians Fire on Servian Heir as He Rows on River. Berlin, June 27.—The Tageblatt’s Belgrade correspondent telegraphs that Crown Prince George of Servia narrowly escaped death while rowing alone on-the river, Having approached the Hungarian shore the customs offi- cials commanded him to stop and per- mit them to examine his boat. This the prince refused to do and started for the Servian shore, which he safely reached amidst a shower of bullets from the officials. Two Run Down by Traln. New Prague, Minn,, June 27.—Con- rad Carl, a German farmery. and James Stremalk, a Bohemian, were instantly killed here by a St. Louis passenger train while crossing the tracks. Both men were terribly mangled. One of the bodies was found with both feet cut off and-the other was lying with the cowcatcher of the engine crushing in the head. MAY DEPGSE KING CARLOS Portuguese Aroused by Despotic Act of Ruler. London, June %.—A correspondent of the Tribune says in a letter mailed from Lisbon June 19 that King Carlos’ throne is in imminent danger of being bwept away by the rush of a great democratic wave, swollen suddenly to dangerous proportions by the act of despotism which he permitted on May 1.. The people do not forget, the cor- respondent says, that last year the king condemned Premier Ribeiro’s at- tempt to dissolve the cortes and they tontrast his attitude toward a conser- vative premier with the curious illog- ical license he has given to Premier Franco. < The general feeling of the country is one of advanced liberalism and a repetition of autocratic bungling can only have one result today in Por- tugal, the writer says, namely, the deposition of the king and the estab- lishment of a republie. SURVEYORS NOW AT WORK Hill System to Be Extended to Cali- fornia Water Line. San Francisco, June 26.—That James J. Hill has not abandoned his plans for extending his gigantic rail- way system to the California water line is again Being evidenced in the movements of several parties of sur- veyors which are now operating in Northern_ California and Western Ne- vada. Within the past few weeks rep- been in this city and Los Angeles in connection with the latest develop- ment in Hill's California terminal project. The latter is a survey for a line from a point in Humbolt bay to Gazelle, a distance of 150 miles, and from the latter point it is contem- plated to build a line eastward to Winnemucea, Nev. The survey of the route between Gazelle and Winne- mucca has been practically made. MARK TWAIN AT OXFORD, American Author Recelves University Degree. o Oxford, Eng., June 27.—With thirty men distinguished in politics, arts, sciences or letters, including Premie; Campbell Bannerman; Lord Chancel- lor Lore.burn; the speaker of the house of commons, Mr. ‘ther} Gen- eral Booth; Rudyard Kiplihg and the archbishop of Armagh, the Most Rév. William Alexander, Mark Twain (Sam- uel L. Clemens) received a university degree in the Sheldonian theater, the scene of many notable gatherings, which was crowded with university dignitaries in their robes of office; students and many visitors, incliding Ambassador Whitelaw Reid and nu- merous other Americans. Lord Cur- zon of Kedleston, changellor of the university, presided and did much to enliven the proceedings, which or- dinarily, with the exception of the un- dergraduates’ chaffing, are rather dull: Mr. Reid was cheered on-entering the theater, but an ovation was re- served for Mark Twain, who certainly was the lion of the occasion. Every one rose when he was escorted up the aisle and he was applauded for a quarter of an hour. Ambassador Reid received the degree of doctor of civil laws, as did General Booth, the warmth of whose reception was only exceeded by that accorded to Mark Twain. - Wisconsin Insurance Bill. Madison, Wis., June 27.—The assem- bly has passed the bill as reported “from committee relating to the elec- tlon of directors of mutual life igsur- ance companfes, which provides that policyholders may vote by mail, proxy or person. ‘The bill permits a ballot for every $500 of insurance or interest in the election, according to. the amount of insurance.
