Unless Agreement Is Reached To-Day, Men Will Walk Out To-Morrow. R There is a strike pending among the warehousemen at Crockett and the towns between that place and Martinez. The grievance committee of the Bay Counties ‘Warehousemen's Protective Association submitted an ultimatum last week to their employers, asking for $3 for a nine- hour work day, and time and a half for overtime. The warehouse owners met last Thurs- day and refused to grant the demand. They offered their employes thirty cents per hour, straight timé, with no extra pay for overtime. The owners’' schedule was to go into effect to-morrow if wcceg‘;ed. The warehouse employes met iday night and decided to refuse to accept the owners' schedule. Unless some agree- ment is reached to-day the men will all be called out to-morrow. The threatened strike will involve 512 men. The employes’ demand was sent to the following firms: California and Hawaiian Sugar Refin- ing Company, Grangers' Busjmess Asso- alfour, Guthrie &<Co., G. W. & Co., E. J. De Pue and Girvin & Eyre. The agreement which the firms refused to sign is as follows: Gentlemen: The grievance committee repre- ting the Bay Counties Warehousemen's Protective Assoclation, an organization com- prising the majority of the men employed in your warehouse at vallejo, and affecting those employed at piling, sack sewing and truck- ing, grader men and at recelving and ship- ping, beg to submit the following schedule of wages and hours of labor, and urgently re- quest that the same become effective Monday, July 15, at 7 a. m. . SCHEDULE. The time which constitutes a day's work shall be nine consecutive hours, from 7 &. m, until 12 m., with one hour for luncheon, and from 1 p. m. until 5 p. m. After 6 p. m. and before 7 a. m. shall be considered as over- time and charged for at the rate of time and one-half. Between the hours of 7 a. m. and § p. m. shall be considered as regular time and the amount charged therefor shall be $3 per nie hours' labor; Sundays and holidays to be considered overtime and charged for at the rate of time and one-half. Fractional portion of regular time to be computed at the rate of 3213 cents per hour, and overtime at the Tate of 50 cents per hour. No man shall be dismissed from service be- cause of his connection with this organization, and no man shall be discriminated against on account of serving on grievance committees of the organization. In makjng these requests we are actuated only by a‘desire to protect our membership and The hours now worked and the id do not in any wise compare with those in other sections of the country for sim- ilar work. We are under heavier living ex- penses than those employed as dock and ware- house men in San Francisco, where the wages are far in excess of what we ask. Again, the work along the bay shores of this county is never as steady as that in San Francisco, which diminishes the chances of providing proper support for our families and to educate our children to properly enter the field of hu- man_ endeavor. We trust, therefore, you will see that we are enduring wrongs that must be righted, and the committee would be glad to have you or your authorized representative advise them of your concurrence in or rejection of these re- Quests before 7 o'clock Monday morning, July 15, 1901 _ Respectfully submitted, A.

Efforts to secure the assistance of the visiting Epworth Leaguers in the cause of the continuance of the present Chinese exclusion act are to be made by the San Francisco Labor Council. If possible the leaguers will also be initifted into the| mysteries of local boycotts directed against two firms—Sanborn, Vail & Co. and Johnson’s restaurant. A committee from the executive committee of the coun- cil will seek a hearing before the conven- tion in order to exploit the views of the labor organizations. No definite plan of action has as yet been developed. It is proposed to use eir- culars if personal solicitation and ad- dresses will too much interfere with the programme of the convention. In addi- tion to this, every member of the council is expected to use his personal influence with all those visitors with whom he may be acquainted. Another matter of local import, the clos- ing of Butchertown, is algo in the hands of the executive committee. H. W. Hut- ton has been engaged as counsel to prose- cute the matter, first through the Board of Supervisors and later through the courts of the State. According to Secre- tary Rosenberg, the franchise granted the wholesale butchers to maintain the abattoirs in their present location was obtained about the year 1869 for twenty years. Subsequently by ordinance of the Board of Supervisors the time was ex- tended. It is claimed that this ordinance may be revoked at any time. Should that fail under the charter a demand will be made for a referendum vot® on the ques- tion of its removal. Action on the matter will be requested at the meeting of the Board of Supervisors on Monday. Officers of the Labor Council for the ensuing year have been named as follows: President, W. G. Goff; vice president, M. Casey; secretary and business agent, Ed Rosenberg; assistant secretary, H. Gallagher; financial secretary, P. H. Coyle; treasurer, W. E. Walker; sergeant at arms, . Johnson.

Representatives from the Iron Trades Council had a conference yesterday morn- (ing with members of the conciliatory committee. A modification of the demands heretofore made will probably be submit- ted within the next forty-eight hours. The matter is now under consideration, and while the local council has the power to adjust the matter, advices as to the course to pursue are anxlously awaited from naticnal headquarters. The iron-molders, twenty-five in num- ber, employed in the Eureka Foundry, on Beale street, and the Liberty Foundry, on Main street, have been ordered out. It is claimed that these foundries were doing work for “‘unfair’” shops. The Hackmen's Union has elected the following officer: President, Michael W.

Me- Cabe, president of the Iron Trades Coun- cil, a'lengthy statement reviewing the his- tory of the struggles of the machinists and other ironworkers has been issued. The statement is prompted by the pro- posed conciliation programme which it is now being attempted to carry out in this city, and contains no new facts relating to the controversy.

WAR DEPARTMENT INCLINES TO BE LENIENT WITH STRONG Uselessness of Court-Martial Is Apparent, as the Captain Wants to Leave Army. Captain Putnam Bradlee Strong, who is sojourning in this city with Lady Francis Hope, wife of the heir to the Duchy of Newcastle, is likely to be court-martialed and dismissed in disgrace from the United States armv. When the liaison of Captain Strong and Lady Hope was exposed the military man at once sent his resignation by telegraph to the Secretary of War, fearing expul- sion from the army at the hands of the authoritfes. Secretary Root accepted Captain Strong’s resignation immediately, but on learning yesterday that the gay soldier was gullty ®f conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman the War Sec- retary at once withdrew his acceptance of Captain Strong’s resignation. The ‘protector” of the ex-burlesque singer and dancer, May Yohe, whose mar- riage to Lord Francis Hope placed her in line of succession to the coronet of a Duchess of England, will be called upon by the Secretary of War to forward by letter the reasons for wishing to discard the shoulder straps of an officer of Uncle Sam'’s army. At the French restaurant on Geary and Stockton streets the couple have given strict orders that no one is to be allowed to even approach their rooms.- The host and the well trained garcons shrug their shoulders when any inquiry is made for Captain Strong or Lady Francls Hope. Captain Strong sent his valet to the Palace Hotel yesterday for his mail and telegrams. It is understood that one of the telegrams was from the Secretary of ‘War, who, in addition to notifying Cap- tain Strong that his resignation had not been accepted, also ordered him to re- main in San Francisco on waiting orders. Trouble Looms Ahead. Lady Francis Hope is booked to sail for the Orient next Wednesday on the Nippon Maru. If Captain Strong attempts to de- part on the same vessel he will be guilty of -desertion from the army in the event that the orders to remain in this city are not countermanded by Secretary Root. The flagrant violation of social ethics by Captain Strong and Lady Francis Hope is attracting the attention of the Pacific Soclety for the Suppression of Vice. The friends of the couple informed them yes- terday of the arrest in this city some years ago of the wife of a well known millionaire of Southern California and the man who accompanied her to this city. The possibility of being taken in a patrol wagon to the City Prison and charged with adultery has made no change in the menage maintained by Lady Francis Hope and Captain Strong. They are known as husband and wife at the restaurant to which they fled after being ejected from the California Hotel.! Lady Francis Hope did not leave her apartments yesterday until the afternoon, when she accompanied Captain Strong for a drive to the park in a closed car- riage. The friends of Captain Strong are say- ing that he was very much amused when he read an account in a morning paper as to Lady Francis Hope being identified by her displaying the famous diamonds of the Hope family. May Yohe when she married Lord Francis Hope was not pre- sented with any of the famous Hope jew- els. They are heirlooms and are in the custody of the Duke of Newcastle, the elder brother of May Yohe’s husband. The gittefln! gems worn by Lady Francis ope in this city may possibly be replicas of the famous Hope jewels. Lord H ‘when he went into bankruptcy did not sell the family pictures, for the good rea- son that he did not have the paintings to sell. He did seil some paintings that were bequeathed to Lim by the late Duke of Newcastle, who purchased them during his lifetime. Throws Away a Coronet. Lord Francis Hope squandered a for- tune of $3,000,000, and is at present depend- ant on the bounty of his brother, the Duke of’Newcastle. In the event of the present Duke dying without issue Lord Francis Hope would become eighth Duke of Newcastle, with a princely income and the superb country seat of Clumber, ‘Worksop, Notts. In deserting Lord Francis Hope for the society of Captain Strong, May Yohe has lost her chance of one day becoming Duchess of Newcastle, one of the proud- est titles in England. ope | posed his marriage to May Yohe, but there was a reconciliation after a time. There is no possible doubt now that Ltlit!'d Hope will soon divorce his actress wife. ‘When Mayor Strong of New York died he was rated as a millionaire. His estate was appraised. however, at $125000, o which amount Captain Strong, his son, re- ceived ahout $30,000. In the few months that have elapsed since Captain Strong secured his inheritance he has lived at a rapid gait, and it is generally stated that his means are almost exhausted. ‘Whether May Yohe will dispose of her jewels in order to maintain her relations with Captain Strong is a doubtful ques- tion. She has always been fond of the pleasures of life, and many men have lav- ished fortunes in entertaining her, She is known to have objected seriously when she married Lord Hope to using his fam- ily motto on her stationery. The motto of the Hope family is “Loyalty knows not shame.” A Washington dispatch says: The War Devartment does not desire that Strong_ should complicate his case by any ill- advised action. He may be able to make an explanation, the officlals say, which will be entirely satisfactory and which will admit of his retention In the service. The department does not, of course, desire the retention of any officer guilty of scandalous conduct, but there is certainly a disposition to be lenjent to- ward Cantain Strong. There is no intention to appoint a court of inquiry to make an in- vestigation, nor is it proposed to hold a court- martial. The uselessness of a court is appar- ent when Caotain Strong stands ready to sever his connection with the army. It was the understanding of the department that financial matters connected with his father's estate were the cause of Captain Strong’s action. His exnlanation, called for ¥y, Secretary Root, will now be officially filed with other papers regarding his military career. Strong and his companion left the French restaurant last night, having se- cured private apartments. They departed in secrecy. Seoae LEAVES HUSBAND FOREVER. Lady Francis Can Hardly Hope for Reconciliation. NEW YORK, July 13—There is no doubt in the minds of the friends of Lady Francis Hope in this city that she went to San Francisco with Captain Strong two weeks ago. She had previously made up her mind to sail for England to accept overtures for reconciliation which had been made by her husband. All who knew her were aware of the fact that she and Captain Strong had been iInfatuated with each other ever since they met in Paris several years ago. Captain Strong continued his attentions after she returned to this country last November, and Lord Francis finally went to England, leaving his wife here. The Duke of Newecastle, Lord Francls’ elder brother, cdme to this country and tried to patch up the differences. Lord Franeis returned .soon afterward, having sold Deepdeem in Surrey, an estate which he had inherited from his mother. did not meet him, though he had asked her to do 80, and he joined his brother at the Savoy Hotel. After a_trip through the South with the Duke of Newcastle Lord Francis returned to England. Recently it was announced that he had written to his wife, offering her a final chance to return to him. She was strongly advised to accept the offer, Captain Strong himself agreeing that it would be the wisest thing she could do. Lady Francis gave up her apartment on July 1, and told all her friends that she was going to England. She was to have saiied two weeks ago. Her friends fear that their presence in San Francisco to- gether has not only seriously affected Captain Strong’s career but has also pre- vented any possibility that the),flopes will make up their differences. Dead Man Was William Scott. SANTA CRUZ, July 13.—It is now learn- ed that the real name of George Linden, who was found dead at Boulder Creek a few days ago, was Willilam Scott. In early days he was a conductor on the San Francisco and San Jose Railroad. Aft- erward he was a policeman in San Fran- cisco.

Detective T. B. Gibson found Bert Pot- ter, a teamster, at his home, 348 Clemen- tina street, yesterday morning and brought him into court. He was sworn and denied that he had made the proposi- tion to the woman to “fix” the case for $20.
