NEW YORK, July 16.—President Rossiter said to-night that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit officials would not arbitrate the strike difficulty with their striking employes. “There is nothing to arbitrate,” said Mr. Rossiter. “The men Wha have gone out came to me with certain demands. I showed them that they already had substantially all they asked for, and would straighten t any injustice. They came in a fighting mood and were not disposed to look at the subject dispassionately.” “How many men went out en strike this morning? “Between 700 and 1000. Not more than 1000 at the outside.” “What about to-morrow ?” “All T can say is that we have enough men to run every single trip to-morrow and will do so if we are not interferred with. The normal conditions will return in a day or two, I hope. Our success to-day in conducting our business in the face of a strike is almost unparalleled.” All the roads with the exception of three, Green and Gates, Halsey and Putnam and the Fulton street lines shut down at 7 o'clock to-night by order of President Rossiter. The three mentioned continued rynning until midnight, wk they were ordered to stop. President Rossiter said he would open the lines again at 5 o'clock in the morning. There was some trouble to-night with a large number of people that had taken the trolley car during the day for Coney Island by way of Ulmer Park. They were let out ac Ulmer Park, and being unable to either get to Coney Island or to return to the city proper for many hours, remained there and several small disturbances were the result. General Master Workman Parsons spent the greater part of the day in Brooklyn and a considerable portion of the afternoon was in confer- ence with Messrs. Delehanty and Webster of the State Board of Mediation and Arbitration. Mr. Parsons said to-night in the course of an interview: “This strike fetotetedefedetol @) feed was one that could have been avoided. We are satisfled with the showing we have made. I think to-morrow will see a paralyzed condition of traffic that will make the people of Brooklyn realize the strike is strong enough to speak for itself. They are running no cars in the suburbs and are making all the show they can in this city.” Mr. Parsons had the sanction of the Knights of Labor, and the men will receive the moral and financial support of that organization. % E‘ x DOOOO OO i1 I-t-iviirlelelofoonforlosfoooforforfo Sfesfecfeeferfefeferfeesfesfecfesfesfeiecfesfesfesfosfesiesieimiieie i 0000 EW YORK, July 16.—Another | trolley strike is on in Brooklyn. down Flatbush avenue, whence it ran | to Coney Island.

July 16.—The steamer Tees, which reached here early this morning with sixty-one miners from Dawson and $150,000 in gold, brought news of another tragedy on the treacherous waters of the Yukon about two weeks ago. Through the wrecking of a scow on which they were journey- ing to Dawson eleven prospéetors found a grave in the waters of the northern river. The story of the casualty was told by arrivals from Atlin. They say that on or about July 8, a party of eleven, after a short stay in the almost barren gold fields of the Atlin District of British Columbia, left for Dawson on a hastily thrown together scow. All went well until Taku Arm was reached, and here the strong winds which cantinually sweep across the waters, drove the scow on a rock. It broke up in an incredibly short time, and the eleven men were thrown into the water. Their struggles to reach the shore were futile, for the fast running cur- rent swept them from the rocks. None reached the land, the whole party find- ing death. Of the dead gold seekers the names of but,five could be learned. The remainder were unknown. Those known to the arrivals by the Tees | were: 4 MR. AND MRS. MILLS of Van- couver, B. C. MRS. CLUNIE AND DAUGHTER, who recently kept the Cripple Creek Restaurant at Skaguay.

UISUN, July 16.—Peter Olsen, pro- prietor of the Union Hotel at Birds Landing, was shot and per- haps mortally weunded at 9 o'clock this morning. His assail- ant was Harry H. Burtt, a recent ar. rival from Rio Vista, who leased the hotel part of the business from Olsen. The shooting took place in the street, near the store of Bird & Dinkelspiel, and was witnessed by seven or eight persons. Olsen received four wounds, one through the body below the stom- ach, two flesh wounds on the hip and a bullet in the knee. The weapon used was a cheap self-acting revolver that carries a 38-caliber cartridge. There was some misunderstanding between Olsen and Burtt and the latter concluded to terminate his lease on Monday. A dispute arose over the dis- position of two sacks of coal and Olsen took offense at the remark made by Burtt that there was ‘“nothing but thieves in Birds Landing.” He shook his fist in Burtt's face, and, according | to the version of an eyewitness, “was shot down like a dog.” Immediately after the shooting and while his victim lay bleeding and groaning on the ground, Burtt walked coolly across the street to the hotel porch, drew a new supply of cartridges from his pocket and reloaded his smok- ing weapon. During the few minutes that intervened Henry Bird rushed into the store and called the operator at Col- linsville by telephone, telling him to send Deputy Sheriff W. C. Jones there at once. Hardly had Mr. Bird concluded his message when Burtt, with pistol in hand, rushed through the small crowd on the street into the store and took possession of the premises. He stood in a deflant and threatening manner, warning those outside not to step in- side the door. He then walked to the rear of the building, took down the | telephone and called up the Sheriff’s of- fice at Fairfield, telling the officer that he would surrender to nobody but the Sheriff. While he was calling first one office, then another on the line Officer | Jones was- eushis,way.to the scene of the tragedy and just four- teen minutes after leaving Collinsville he arrived on the ground, having run his horse the entire distance. He was met in front of the store by an excited crowd which by this time had increas- ed to about twenty-five. Lynching was freely talked of, but Mr. Jomes, who is known throughout the State as a fearless officer, succeed- ed in quieting the villagers temporarily. Despite the protests of those without. he walked into the store without even displaying his own revolver and took the desperado into custody. He placed handcuffs on Burtt's wrists and at the assassin’s request took him over to the hotel to talk to Mrs. Burtt before leav- ing for the County Jail. Ten minutes elapsed before they were ready to start and by this time loud talking was being indulged in on the street. Threats of lynching were heard on all sides and when the prisoner was led out to the buggy Burtt was the coolest man in the crowd. Jomes lost {no time in getting his prisoner away from the excited residents. While the attention of most ~° the crowd was attracted toward the assail- ant, Olsen was not neglected. Imme- diately after the shooting he was car- | ried to his home, about forty yards down the street, and as soon as the telephone could be reached Dr. W. S. Makemson of Rio Vista was summon- |ed. - He arrived shortly after noon. Everything possible was done to relieve the unfortunate man and an operation | failed to locate the bullet in his body. | Dr. Makemson says there are but slight | chances for M en’s recovery, the | principal danger being that blood pois- | aninz will result from the body wound. | Peter Olsen has been a resident of Birds Landing and vicinity for the past fifteen v and stands well in the | community. He has a wife and two children, a girl eight years of age and a boy of four. Shortl~ after being placed in the County Jail, Burtt was seen by The Call correspondent. He refused to make any statement in regard to the shoot- {ing, his only reference.to it being that it was done in self-defense. He said his full name was Harry H. Burtt. that he was a native of Anderson, Shasta | County, where his parents resided, and that he was thirty-one years of age. Burtt is a married man. He refused to have his photograph taken. saying he did not wish to have any additional notoriety. He is a person of slight build, blonde hair and mustache, is five feet six inches in height and weighs 135 pounds. His complexion is very sal- | low and he has the appearance of be- | ing addicted to the use of opium. After his arrival in Suisun Officer | Jones gave additional facts in regard to the man. He said that during the two | hours' ride together Burtt had little to | say about the shooting or the causes that led up to it. In regard to his past | history, he seemed somewhat communi- | cative, and told of having been arrested in -Stockton on . a charge of forgery comnmitted in Woodland. ‘He also spoke of having had some trouble in Sonora while conducting a saldon in that town, | but would not give any details. He re- | marked to the officer while on the way to the jail: ' : “You acted very funny, Jones, to come into the store without.a pistol in your hand.” Jones answered: “I did not need a pistol’ to take a little fellow like you,” whereupon Burtt remarked: “I am a dead shot and can hit the | size of a man's eye at twenty yards.” | " Jones says that Burtt is a person of | remarkeble nerve and dispiayed a cool- | ness at the time of the arrest that was remarkable, He asked to have the | handcuffs removed and the’ pistol re- | turned to him before leaving Birds | Landing, and said he would stand the | crowd off.
