Pierce of the Amer- ican Federation of Labor spent several hours yesterday in consuitation with the executive committee of Journeymen Butchers' Union No. 115, all attempts to restrain the de- sire of the workingmen to accept the de- mands promulgated by them nearly three weeks ago and accepted by their employ- ers were futile. At the close of the day's business it was announced that only two shops carried the union card, around the display of which the whole controversy resolved. No exciting situation marked the close of the journsymen butchers’ meeting. | They met at the Turk-street Temple and | there discussed the situation. The an- | nouncement that four shops had been | closed because of opposition to the will | of the wholesale dealers who had been | supplying them and that the same fate | would be meted out to others had the ef- fect of causing the hauling down of union cards except in two instances. Both of the men who held out are located in la- boring disiricts and have becen making | displays of piacards. . | “The “change in conditions was effected | very quietly. The wagons of the whole- salers went around between 4 o’clock Fri- afternoon and 10 o'clock yesterday ot k;l union card?”’ the driver, who generally accompanied by a trusted representative of the supplying firm, would ask. If the reply was *yes” the driver would e me the card or I'll have to drive on. The cards were handed in promptly, ot display the union card. Al- though the matter was practically settled by the prompt action of the wholesalers, pickets were out during the busy hours of the evening, because the men directing the strike had other matters to consider. Although the working butchers' head- | quarters was deserted last night and the | executive committee had a long session in a_private residence, an acknowledgment of defeat was not generally admitted. A meeting will be held again this afternoon se Turk-street Temple, at which it is | of the expected formal announcement men advised to apply for work at once. “Only two butcher shops now display the union card,” said Isaac Frohman, at- torney'for the executive committee of the Wholesale Butchers' Association. 'We expect a surplus of workmen to report for duty on Monday. All who are capable may find places, as there is no animosity between the men and ghe employers. We thought they were ill-advised in their ac- tions, and while all other demands had been agreed upon there came a sudden stumbling block. This has, happily, been removed, and now all' is harmony. Mr. secretary of our association, who has been at Butchertown each day, that the slaughter-houses are run- ning full handed and that meat supplies { will be delivered at the usual hours. It} is safe to v that the strike has reached its climax.’ i A number of the striking butchers went | out to Butchertown yesterday mornng and were met by Henry Moffatt, the only Wholesaler who happened to be there. The men were received pleasantly and the limited courtesies of Butchertown were extended to them. A most jovial disposi- much to do with the settlement of differ- ences. Tt Was reported that a humber-of cattie dealers, atiracted by the strained situa- tion, were in the city. Some talk has been indulged in about the organization of a stock company to erect a union slaughter-house and _work would at| once proceed on this plan. None of the ! leading retall butchers approached wou!d! admit that they were about to become interested in such an enterprise. WILL CLOSE THE YARDS. NEWPORT NEWS, Va., June 15.—Su- perintendent Post of thé Newport. News -building and Drydock Company to- day announced his ultimatum to the strik- ists. He gave it out officially that if the strik- ers do not return to work by 8 o’'clock Mcnday evening the entire plant will be Up to the present time between 2000 and | 2500 men have been laid off owing to the strike of the machinists. The yards give Canadian Pacific Rail- way Employes Va- cate Their Positions ANCOUVER, B. C., June 15.—Two strikes, each affecting directly over 4000 men, one formally de- clared and the other serlously threatened, are features of the troubles of labor in Western Canada. The track and bridge constructing gangs on the Canadian Pacific Raflway have al- ready gone on strike and are quitting work to-night all the way across the con- tinent. The threatened strike is that of the Fraser River fishermen, who are at a deadlock with the canners on the ques- tion of price. Now that the strike of the trackmen has become &n accomplished fact, the feature of the affair is whether the engineers and conductors will join in the fight. The en- gineers’ organizations have not passed upon the question of whether the track- men can rightfully be organized as skilled labor, but even if no decision is come to on this point the engineers may refuse to haul trains over roads which are unpro- tected by inspection of section gangs. This is probably the way in which the trainmen’s brotherhoods would act and al- low the trackmen and the company to fight out the .question of recognition be- tween themselves. The question is now, how long will the strike last? Canadian Pacific officials claim they are not in ‘the least concerned. They say they have all the section bosses working and these foremen will take charge of gangs of [talians who will make up the section gangs, along with the men who will necessarily become dissatistied with the strike. But the men themselves declare that ‘they have plenty of money in the headquarters treasury and can car- ry on the strike for an unlimited time. In British Columbia about six hundred men quit work to-night. There are over 200 bridge builders in this number. The trackmen will have the supvort of simi- Jar organizations in the United States, as the union is an international one, all branches being affiiiated. But the Cana- dian Pacific Railway heads of depart- ments seem to rest easily in the bellef that the majority of the men will return to work upon the advanced rate of wages being offered by the company during the negotiations, after they have satisfied their consciences by turning out at the de- mand of the order. Affairs are in a strained condition be- tween the fishermen and canners. After a series of haif a dozen joint meetings this week, the canners agreed to offer ten cents per fish during the rush of the sal- mon season as the highest price they could possibly afford. To-day the central union of the fishermen, representing near- ly 400¢ white men, met and unanimously decided to reftse the offer, holding out for twelve and a half cents. The canners will not pay a cent higher and the fisher- men say it is folly for them to work at a lower figure. The Japanese are as yet un- certain, and will probably-8e out in the event of a strike to fish for whatever they can get. MACHINISTS FILE PROTEST. DETROIT, June 15.—The Detroit branch of the International Assoclation of Ma- chinists to-day forwarded to President Angell of the University of Michigan a protest against the plan cf certain De- troit employers of hiring undergraduates of the university to fill the places of the striking machiniste. . The protest says: “We, as taxpayers of the State of Michi- gan. protest most strenuously against the unds of the State being used to educate the sons of well-to-do families to take our places, when we are making an effort to place labor in a position to have and use more of the leisure which the modern industrial system. if properly adjusted, provides that it should enjoy. “We most_earnestly request you to use vour best efforts to dissuade the students from pursuing a course which would re- flect discredit on the good name of the University of Michigan.” —_———— Trapper’s Oll cures rhezmatism and neuralgia.

The wife has conferred with her attorney, and as soon as the pa- | pers can be prepared they will be filed in the Alameda County Superior Court. “We have been separated more than a vear now,” sald Mrs. Olcese-Borlini at her nome in Oakland yesterday, “and as that is the statutory time required for people to be separated before divorce proceedings can be begun, I have decided to begin suit. As for Mr. Borlini, I don’t know where he is and have not heard anything ) of him for a good many months.” | Mrs. Olcese-Borlini is the daughter of | Mrs. Margaret Olcese of 1030 Sixteenth street, Oakland. As Miss Olcese she was a leader in Oakland society. When she | married Alfred *Boriini a year ago the | | wedding was deemed one of the most I notable of a_series -of society weddings | and was celebrated with great pomp. | But hardly had the sound of the wed- | ding beils died away before it got abroad | that young Borlini_ was a defaulter and | that his bride, having discovered the fact | firt, haa separated from her husband and | gone back to the home of her mother. | The matter became public when Borlini ‘was charged with peculations of money by his employer, the London and San Francisco Bank, with which institution he had been for many years. He had con- fessed his_crime to his bride while they were on their wedding tour, hoping that her'well-tp-do relatives would come to his assistance; but when she found she had been deceived she left him. Borlini was then comnelled to confess his shortage to his employers. Through the influence of friends he escaped prosecution. It was openly charged at the time of the mar- riage that Borlini had deliberately wedded the young woman in -the bellef that his shoriage would be made good after he had become her husband. ————————————— Yosemite Valley via Santa Fe.
