STEELWORKERS’ STRIKE WILL SOON BE SETTLED Billion-Dollar Trust Arranged a Conference Which Means End of Strike Is Near. PITTSBURG, July 6.—The strike of the American Sheet Steel Company and | American Steel Hoop Company mill em- ployes will probably be terminated next week. Arrangements were made in this | city to-day for the holding of a joint con- ference in Pittsburg between representa- tives of both companies, which are mem- bers of the United States Steel Corpora- | tion, and representatives of the Amalga- mated Steel, Iron and Tin Workers for ad- Jjusting the existing labor troubles. The agreement to meet in conference means virtually a settlement of the strike, inas- | much as the operating officials of the hoop and sheet companies would not have con- sented to meet the workers’ committee un- less there was good prospect of immediate | settlement, and it may be accepted as a ettied fact that all the mills now idle will be in operation by the last of next week, and that the strike, which tnreat- ened the steel industry generaily, will be averted iIn its incipiency. It is stated on g£00d authority that the conference will be eld early next week, probably before ‘Wednesday, and assurance is given that a settlement of the trouble will be speedily effected. The operating officials of the steel companies will meet the workers’ committee, and as the question involved 18 not one of wages, but the extension of organization control to so-called non- union plants, an agreement is likely to be readily made. Some minor differences also exist in the | tin plate trade, and representatives of the American Tin Plate Company and the workers will meet to adjust these. The United States Steel Corporation has arranged terms with the Amalgamated Association for the union mills of the Nationabl Tube Company, the American Tin Plate Company and one plant of the National Steel Company, with a prospect of a settlement at its other plants in the Youngstown district. The scale for the South Chicago and Joliet plants of the Federal Steel Company has been arranged, and can only be terminated by one side glving ninety days’ notice of a desire for a change. The other plant of this com- pany, the Bay View Works, is operated | under a special scale, and no_trouble in reaching an agreement is anticipated. The only trouble the big corporation has with the Amalgamated Association is with the American Sheet Steel Company and the American Steel Hoop Company. A statement to-night from a prominent Amalgamated official as to what brought about the proposition for a conference gives as the reason the fact that the American Tin Plate Company was glven notice last week that if the steel hoop and sheet steel scales were not signed by the manufacturers by a certain date, naming a day in the close future, the Amalgamat- ed Association’s president will be instruct- ed to enforce the authority given him by the constitution to call out union em ployes of the United States Steel Corpor- ation. The enforcement of a general strike ordered by the Amalgamated Assoclation would mean that 80.000 men in union mills | would be directly affected. e I a2 20 2 Y - WALL OF ICE BLOCES GLACIER BAY’S ENTRANCE Avalanches Due to Earthquakes Are Constantly Sliding Down the Mountain. PORT TOWNSEND, Wash., July 6.— The excursion steamer Queen arrived from the north to-day. Her officers re- port Glacler Bay one mass of ice and that vessels can approach to within no nearer than fourteen miles of Muir glacier, an ice jam from thirty to forty feet high extending across the bay. Ac- cording to Pilot Thompson, such a jam has not been known since excursio steam- ers started on the northern run fourteen years ago, and he attributes it to several severe shocks of earthquake last winter. These shattered the immense ler and ice cakes are sloughing off faster than the tides can carry them out of the bay. The ice floes in the channels are greater than ever known before. —-——— Captain Wilson Insane. SAN RAFAEL, July 6.—William D.

SHOT BY MAN WHOM HE ADJUDGED INSANE Idaho Probate Judge Receives Fatal Wound While Seated in His Office. SPOKANE, July 6.—Probate Judge J. C, Brady of Kootenal County, Idaho, was fatally shot by a crazy man named Henry ‘Wilmbusy at Rathdrum, Idaho, last night. Brady was seated in the probate office when Wilmbusy entered and fired at close range, the ball entering below the right eye and fracturing the base of the brain. ‘The murderer turn e rned out the lights and Wilmbusy was adjudged insane four years ago by Judge Brady. This preyed on his mind. He escaped several times and was recommitted, but th was allowed to remain at ll.rx:. gt b Receives Fatal Wound. STOCKTON, July 6.—John Garvin, aged 30 years, was accidentally shot in the stomach last evening at the ranch of ‘Wash Trahern, the horseman, and will probably die. Mr. Trahern was handling a small rifle belonging to a boy who was visiting the place, when it was discharg- €d, the ball entering Garvin's abdomen.

Columbia Proves Speedy and Independence Is Badly Beaten. NEWPORT, R. L, July 6.—An unquali- fied victory for the Constitution—an over- whelming defedt for the Independence; a most commendable showing for the old champlon, the Columbia—is the record of the first day's contest of the big sloops in the Newport Racing Assoclation’s series. From the firing of the starting gun, which sent the yachts off to windward in a light easterly breeze, the Constitution held her rivals. At the turning buoy she was a little more than two minutes in advance of the Columbia, while the In- dependence was hull down to leeward. | But it was on the run home that the new Herreshoff .yacht showed her greatest strength, beating the Columbia over eight | minutes in the fifteen miles down the wind, and when the new champion of the America’s cup swept across the line the Boston yacht was over seven miles astern. 7 Owing to the lightness of the wind there { was no brilliant or dramatic scene to chronicle. The race lacked the charm | that attends a scupper breeze, but it was full of interesting if not exciting events, nevertheless. Failure of Independence. The chief incident of the contest was, of course, the failure of the Independence to meet the expectations of her adherents. That she was a failure in the weather conditions that prevailed to-day cannot be gainsaid. At no time during the con- test to windward did she show any weatherly qualities whatever. She did not point as high as her opponents, nor did she even for a brief interval demonstrate that she possessed a fraction of the speed which she seemed to have shown when sailing by herself. That she may be vast- ly improved is possible, but that she pro- foundly disappointed her friends to-day cannot be concealed, for in light winds her excellence was chiefly supposed to rest. When she got fairly out into the open sea she pounded heavily in the southwest swell, and the more she pound- ed the more she seemed to lose headway. So far as the Constitution’s success was concerned it was no more than was ex- ected of her by those who have watched er keenly since her launch. Handled splendidly and with rare judgment, but not in the least better than the Columbia, her superior size and bigger sail plan told. e boasts of some experts that Nat Herreshoff had reached his limit when he designed the Columbia are not justi- fled by to-day’s race. Whether the Colum- bia will beat the Consiitution in hard weather remains to be proved. The Columbia was safled in a_m meriterious manner from start to finish. All the arts of the professional sea jockey were practiced by Barr, the sailing mas- ter, and E. D. Morgan, the manager, to overcome their vastly ' abler opponent. That they should have kept the inferior boat so close to her superior antagonist in the race to the outer mark was a won- derful plece of work. That the Constitu- tion Is by far the better all-round boat, let it blow high or low, is hardly to be doubted after her showing to-day. Record of the Contest. The following table shows the record of the race in figures: Elapsed Corr. YACHT h. Time. Time. Constitution 06 Columbia. .. Independence *Did rot finish 12:12:00 * within time limit. Thus on corrected time the Constitution { beat the Columbia by 9 minutes 49 seconds over the whole course. On the first leg of the course, the beat to windward, the Censtitution beat the Columbia 1 minute 59 seconds. On the run home the Consti- tution beat the Columbia 9 minutes 8 sec- ords. The Constitution won by 11 minutes 7 seconds on elapsed time. The Constitu- tion allowed the Independence 43 seconds and the Columbia 77 seconds. Time at the outer mark: Constitution, 3:43:35; Colum- the manager of the Constitu- | tion, came ashore at the vacht club in| his launch just after 8 o’clock this even- ing. When asked if he had anything to say about the victory of his boat, he simply stated that all on board were thor- oughly satisfied with her performance. The Constitution is all ready for the sec- ond race on Monday. remain at her moorings to-morrow and her crew will be given a rest. The Independence arrived back in_ the harbor about 8 o’clock, nearly an hour after the other two yachts had caught thelr moorings. Crowninshield left the yacht at that time, being taken ashore in a launch. Soon after the Independence was _moored Lawson went aboard from the Decatur and had a chat with Captain Haff. No one one the Boston boat wouid talk for publication. Chapman, private secretary for Lawson, said that no one aboard had any comment to make. He added that the Independence would be ready for another race on Monday. No one on board the yacht seemed depressed over the poor showing of the vacht, all ltre:iflng the matter as the resuit of hard uck. . Losses by Wilbur’s Fire.

BAKERSFIFELD, July 6 —The investiga- tion of the Kern County course ot study has resulted in Superintendent of Public Instruction T. J. Kirk ordering grade by grade the reinstatement of the textbooks provided by the State and Insisting that the long list of other books in the manual as adopted by the Kern County Board of Sducation be properly designated as sup- plemental to the lawful serles. The board was instructed to have the manual pla- carded with slips in accordance with the changes required by Superintendent Kirk and a certified copy sent him to Sacra- mento. Superintendent Doub insisted that there ‘was no intention on the part of the board to violate the law, and agreed to conform to the request cf Mr. Kirk. The investi- gation was prcceeding without feeiing on either side when Attorney S. C. Smith, who represented Mr. Doub, arose and said that he considered the investigation on the part of Mr. Kirk an insult to the citi- zens of Kern County. He declared that Kirk “rubbed it in” by ordering each se- ries labeled as supplementary books. Grove L. Johnson, who represented the Allied Printing Trades Council, replied with a sarcastic and bitter denunciation of Attorney Smith’s course. There was no effort made on the part of Mr. Kirk to be harsh in his dealings with the board. He merely requested that, if the board were not contemplating any vio- lation of the law, the manual be so re- vised that the general public, as well as the teachers and pupils, would be able to understand just what was meant. Attorney Johnson said after the meet- ing that the parties he represented would not be satisfied with the mere statement on the part of Mr. Doub that the law would not be violated. ,He was of the opinion that there was an effort to over- throw the State textbooks, as was evi- denced by the fact that the schools of this county had not for the past year taken the State series into consideration.

MARYSVILLE, July 6—Judge Davis, sitting in the Superior Court of this coun- ty, handed down an opinion this afternoon for the contestant in the estate of Alfred Fuller, deceased, transferred from Butte County for trial. Suit was brought by William_Fuller, the son of Alfred Fuller, and an_Indian woman named Jenita, with whom fuller lived from 1870 to 1875 at the toll gate near Sonora, in Tuolumne Coun- ty. Fuller later lived in Chico, where he died two years ago, leaving an estate of Much_criminal and civil litigation fol- lowed Fuller’s death. Dr. Rodley of Chico is now serving a term of ten years in S8an Quentin for having forged a will which he produced as the last will of the dedd man, naming Mrs. Minnie Houseworth of Chico as the principal legatee, and him- self and John Garner of Chico signing the alleged will as witnesses. Garner con- fessed and Rodley’s arrest and conviction followed. Mrs. Houseworth and Garner are now in jail in Oroville awaiting trial at the fall term of court. The important findings of the court are that the claimant is the son of Alfred Fuller and that he had been held up to the world and received into the family of the deceased as such. The defendants will appeal to the Supreme Court. e Suicide’s Identity Unknown.

STOCKTON, July 6.—The Warehouse ‘Workers’ branch of the Stevedores’ Union met to-night at Union Hall. The strike situation was discussed and the men de- cided to stand by the union. President Harrison of the Farmers’ Union and Mili- ing Company held a conference to-day with several old employes of the company who had walked out with the other strik- ers,-but no agreement was reached. Grain continues to come in, with but few men to handle it. Unloaded barges are still lying in the channel; more grain is ar- riving in cars, and more is expected, by both rail and water. There is nothing new in the plumbers’ walkout. They are determined not to submit to the demand of the boss plumb- ers that they purchase certain tools, and the boss plumbers are determined that the plumbers shall not be allowed to come to work until they do purchase them. In the meantime the apprentices are doing the work, assisting the boss plumbers. It is rumored that the laundry em- ployes, who have a union, intend to strike for higher wages and better terms. ————— There is a vast coal supply in Australa, which is almost unworked as yet.
