FRAN SUNDAY TRUCE STRUGGLE IS UNBROKEN Twenty Additional Men Are Sent to Port Costa, but the City Water Front Shows Litfle Activity. DAY of the utmost quiet followed the enthusiasm of Saturday’'s great labor parade. The strike leaders took advantage of the in- action of Sundhy to rest from their tasks, and little was attempted in the way of work even aboard the vessels whose cargoes are being unloaded. The attention of the unions is being di- rected toward arrangements for the cele- bration of Labor day. They feel that the holiday will have unusual significance this vear, and they intend to make of it an- other great demonstration in the interests of the strike. The executive committee of the Labor Council will meet at 10 o’clock this morning to arrange additional detalis of the celebration. Speaking of the general strike situation, Andrew Furuseth, secretary of the Sail- ors’ Union, said yesterday: We enter upon the sixth week of the teamsters’ strike and the fifth week of the general strike as strong and determined as the we went out. As to the results we have accomplished, conditions along the water front and in the wholesale dis- trict speak for themselves.” “Have you accomplished as much as you hoped for in that time?” was asked him. “No, I would not say that. We had hoped for early peace, of course. But it takes two to make a bargain. The -em- ployers will not treat with us. That set- tes it. There is no other course but to continue the struggle and put up the best fight possible to us.” Typographical Union No. 21 yesterday adopted resolutions denouncing Captain Wittman for clubbing the striker Masse. The union decided to increase the assess- ment in aid of the strikers and to partici- pate in the Labor day parade, each mem- ber not appearing in line to be fined $25. Fise < o g SHOTS FIRED AT PICKETS. Several Small Riots Occur on the Water Front. Very little work was done on the water front yesterday. The day was one of rest for every ope but the pickets placed by the unions along the wharves. They were as vigilant as ever and allowed no oppor- tunity to pass whereby they might bene- fit their cause. Only two non-union men were treated at the Harbor Hospital dur- | ing the entire day, and neither of them | were badly injured. The injured stevedores were colored men who have been boarding on the Ohio. They had been ashore overnight and when they went to the fr to get aboard the vessel they were stopped | by the pickets, who sought to prevent their reaching the floating - boardin; house. E. 8. James, one of the colore m drew a revolver and fired two shots into the crowd of pickets, and his compan- ion, whose name is Henry Boose, assault- ed the union men with his fists. A small riot ensued, out of which the | bruised. None of the negroes came badl; ‘While the fight was union men were hurt in progress the police arrived and arrest- ed the whole crowd. James was charged with discharging a weapon inside the city limits and the pickets and Boose were charged with disturbing the peace.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.—Sir Thomas Lip- ton’s steam yacht Erin anchored in Sandy Hook Bay close to the Shamrock II to- night having returned from her trip to Oyster Bay, where Sir Thomas and his party were entertained by the Seawan- haka-Corinthian Yacht Club. Lieutenant Colonel Burbank, commandant of the military post on Sandy Hook, with his family, accompanied Sir Thomas and wit- nessed the race between the Constitution and Columbia on Saturday. They re- mained on board the yacht to-day and enjoyed a cruise on the Bound. The Shamrock was not damaged by the fierce squall that ewept over the bay on Saturday afternoon.

The work of unloading the Californian at Steuart-street wharf was almost com- pleted yesterday. She was about the onll‘(' Vessel along the front on which any worl was done. The steamer Argyll is still at Howard- street Pler 3. Every effort has been made during the last few days to get her ready for sea so that she could sail to- day, but the men worked very slowly, and it is now thought that she will not get out before Wednesday. The Wellington is still unloading coal at the Dunsmuir bunkers. The work will probably be completed to-day, when she will be sent north for another cargo. Twenty men were secured yesterday for | work at Port Costa, and arrangements were made to send them up on a gasoline launch. The usual secrecy was maintain- ed about the point from which they ‘were to start, and it was not known that the launch had got under way until she was seen coming back in tow of another gaso- line boat. It was learned that the boat- {load of non-union men had reached Red Rock, when the engine broke down and they drifted helplessly about until picked up by one of the launches cruising about the bay. | MACHINISTS NOT TO RETURN. Managers and Strike Leaders Deny a Rumor. Rumors were in circulation yesterday | afternoon to the effect that a number of striking machinists had determined - to break away from the tnion this morning | and return to work. It was reported that | a few men would return to the Union and Risdon Iron Works and that a consider- able number would go back to the Fulton | Iron Works. No definite authority could | be found to substantiate the reports and | both the managers of the iron works and the leaders of the machinists denied all knowledge of them. James Spiers, president of the Fulton Iron Works, when interviewed on the sub- ject stated that he knew of no strikers | who intended to return to work this | morning. He assemed that ne expected to obtain a supply of men in the near | future, but declined to state where from. | In speaking of the conditlons existing at{ | the Fulton Iron Works he said: “While | in the past we have made no special effort | to secure men, in the future we intend to let no opportunity to increase our force pass. Secretary McCabe of the machinists emphatically denied that any of the ma- chinists would return to work. He state that all his men were standing firm. Hi | denied that any compromise looking to |the return of the machinists had been made or even considered. i Star Not Protection Enough. gomery avenue, a non-union driver em- ployed by McNab & Smith, was brought | to the Emergency Hospital from Hinkley | alley early yesterday morning in a badly | battered -condition. His right leg was | | broken and his head and face were cov- | | ered with contusions and lacerations. He | said he had been set upon by a number of | fruit wagon drivers, thrown down a flight of stairs and kicked and clubbed. When | placed upon the operating table he| endeavored to conceal trom the searching | officers a policeman’s star which he held |in his hand. He gave as his excuse for | possessing the badge that he wanted *to |Tun a bluff” in case he should be as- | | saulted.

PATRICK’S CHURCH JUBILEE CELEBRATED BY PARISHIONERS Solemn High Mass, Vespers, and Sermon by Bishop Montgomery Comprise the Ceremonies. T. PATRICK'S chimes rang out a glad Te Deum early yesterday morning, when at the break of day was celebrated the first mass that marked the commemoration of that church’s golden Jubllee.. Bven at that early hour thousands.crowded the edifice and on knees in suppliance bent prayed that its centennial jubilee might be duly celebrated. Each mass, and there 3 B~ were many celebrated during the day, concluding with a solemn high mass at 11 o'clock, found the church thronged With earnest and devoted worshipers. St. Patrick’s is the second of the paro- chial churches of the Catholic faith in this city to celebrate a golden jubiice. Mission Dolores has the credit of more than a century of existence, but the church of St. Francis d’Assissium ante- dates St. Patrick’s by two years. So St. Patrick’s is intimately associated with the early history of San Francisco, and 1its parishioners, some of whom worshiped in the old church, found added religious fervor in the celebration of yesterday. Rarely has a more distinguished body of eccleslastics been gathered within the sanctuary rails, than was assembled at the grand solemn high mass that was celebrated at 11 o'clock. His Grace Arch- bishop Riordan was present, participated in the mass, and gave the papal benedic- tion to the congregation that filled every nook and cranny of the spacious edifice. From Los Angeles came ' Right Rev. George Montgomery, Bishop of the dio- cese of Monterey and Los Angeles, to preach the sermon. Other _dignitaries were: Very Father Vuibert of the Sulpician % president of St. Patrick’s Theologleal Seminary; Very Rey. John P. Frieden, S. J., president of St. Ignatius College; Rev. Father Heverin of the Catholic Unive: sity, Washington, D. C.; Rev. Father 8 llvan of Halifax, N. S. Raphael, 0. F. M., Clancy, O. P. Beautiful Decorations.

Rev. P. J. Cummins, the third pastor of the church in its fifty years of existence, was the celebrant of the mass. He was assisted by Rev. John W. Sullivan of St. Patrick’'s Seminary as deacon, and Rev J. Doran, also attached to the seminary, as sub-deacon. Rev. P. E. Mulligan, sec- retary to Archbishop:Riordan, was tne master of ceremonies. Rev. P. Scanlan, chancellor of the archdiocese and pasic® of Bt. Joseph's Church, and Rev. W. B, O’Connor, pastor of St. Mary’s Church of Stockton, were the deacons of honor. Father Scanlan was attached to St. Pat- riek’s Church in 1865 and Father O'Con- nor was assistant from May, o Rev. T T March, 1572 The acolvtes were: Thomas Trodden, J.

Bishop Montgomery’s Remarks, *“The celebration of this golden jubiice,” said Bishop Montgomery during the course of his sermon, “should be ose of pride and joy to the people of this parisn. St. Patrick is not alone the apostle of Ireland, but 13 the patron saint of your parich. You should remember that you are not celebrating any ordinary event. You are not merely celebrating nfty vears of parish life, but are celebrating the oc- casion that permits you to be partakers in the greatest of God's living truths and principles. Tt is the value that comes to the Christian soul from the light in which it shines. ““This is the life and the spirit of grace. The principal attribute of the Catholic Church is her unity, and is also one oi ifs chiet characteristics. Wherever it is, it is & power throughout the world. “The goepel is God's will. For fifty years that gospel has been workinz In your midst for your salvation. The caurch Las always been and is coexistent with God himself, and the fact that you are incorperated in that great and mys:ic body of the church makes this day all the more memorable to you. " “The church in her full membarship is made uc of the church militant, the church suppliant and the church triumpn- ant. As the church militant she is opposed o the powers of darkness. As the church suppliant she represents the sinner, bex- ging at the throne of mercy, that her children may be spared the pains of purgatory or the torments of hell. “God made his first covenant with Adam, renewed it with Noah, reiteruted it with Moses when he led his chosen reople out of the wilderness, and later with his apostles, for the Catholic Churs has Leen the same through all days and all generations. These attributes have ail been handed down to us by his divine scn. l thai gives t Ard it is a remembrance of these facts to-day’s celebration its greatest significance. ~ Fifty years are but a smali cycle of time in the history of a & church that extends back to the begin- rirg of the world. 1 Urged to Co-operate With Pastor. “In the fifty years of this church’s ex- istence we have seen the close of the latter half of the most remarkable cen- tury the world has ever known. It is| remarkable for many things that will | redcund to the greater honor and glory of God, and it is also remarkable for advanced knowledge in things material and natural. But in all these things we | must rely on God. God has given man intelligence to enjoy them, and upon him and the use he may make of them must | end his future havpiness. “The church is not a dead body. It speaks with an infallible certainty.” The son of God and redeemer of mankind has said to his apostles, ‘You havé not clothed | me; I have clothed vou. Go. ye therefore | and teach all nations, for I will be with | you all days even to the consummation | of the world.' You for fifty vears have been participating in these blessings. For fifty vears, day by day, you have been benefited by this spirit of grace. Each week and sometimes every day you have assisted here at the sacrifice of the mass. Some day you may be brought here to | have the last sad rites of the church per- | formed -over your dead temement, Co- operate with your devoted pastor in all | things spiritual and temporal looking to | your welfare, but of all things look care- | fully to the Christian training of the| vouth of the parish.” Solemn vespers were sung in the évening | by the same choir that performed in the | morning.

On June 9, 1851, the first mass was cele- brated in the district now embraced in St. Patrick’s parish, whieh was .then bounded on the north by Pine street, the waters of the bay on the east and south and what is now Larkin and Ninth streets. on the west. A room on Market street was fitted up as a chapel, and Rev. John | Maginnis, who had only a few days be- | fore arrived in the city, acted as pastor, a position to which he was later for- mally appointed by the late Bishop Ale- many. By the first Sunday in September a tem- porary structure was erected on what is now the site of the Palace Hotel. In'the | following November the parishioners by a unanimous vote decided upon St. Pat- rick as patron of the parish, and on De- cember 22 the little chiirch was dedicated. Some months later additional land was acquired and five sters of Charity opened a school and orphan asylum un- der the patronage of St. Vincent. In June, 1854, a larger church and or- phan asylum were built. The growth of the city made help for Father Maginnis necessary, and among those who assfsted him in the early days were the late Rev J. F. Harrington. former pastor of St. Francis Church, and Rev. Michael King, astor of the Church of the Immaculate (glce tlonlhig(s)zakmn& n June 1, .

Father Grey remained in charge un- til about two years ago, when he was suc- ceeded by Rev. P. J. Cummins, formerly of St. Charles Church.

SACRAMENTO, Aug. 25.—At an early hour this morning Police Detectives | Fisher and Fitzgerald arrested Harry Hammel, allas Harry Horner, who is said to be one of the most dangerous criminals in the State. Hammel is a safe-blower, and a charge has been placed against him of having shattered the vault doors of Holbrook, Merrill & Stetson's establish- ment in this city Sunday night last and etting away with $226. gHanflg‘l’nel was released May 13 from Fol- som Prison, after having served a five- | year term for burglary committed in Los | Angeles.

Opening the postoffice door they found the room filled with smoke. The robber. pistol in’ hand, ordered them to stand back. Weller grabbed at the pistol and the robber sought to discharge it, but the hammer was stopped by Weller's thumb. escape. The police and detectives this afternoon discovered a safe-breaking outfit in an alley here, where Hammel is thought to have planted it. It contained drills, dyna- mite and an electrical apparatus. Hammel was coming out of this alley when ar- rested this morning. On his person were a logded revolver and some dynamite cartridges. Detective Fisher to-night said there was no question that Hammel was the man who committed the San Mateo County robberies. After the Holbrook, Merrill & Stetson robbery, Fisher visited San Mateo Ceunty, and in company with Under Sher- iff Henry Bucks called on all the parties who had seen the robber and obtained from them descriptions which fitted Ham- mel perfectly. Detective Fisher had a photograph of Hammel with a number of others. He asked the parties to select the man, and they all picked out Hammel’s | picture. Amons those who thus positively identi- fied Hammel was Deputy Postmaster George Weller and Hotel Clerk Thomas Burns, who had the face-to-face adventure with him in the San Mateo postoffice. City Marshal Wallace saw a man hastily leav- ing the town just after the robbery, and before he had teen informed of it, and he recognized this man in the picture shown him of Hammel. A milkman who saw the robber escaping also jdentified him in the same manner. The detective claims that he has all of Hammel's movements traced up to the present. Mis room here has been searched and further incriminating evidence found. including revenue stamps of the number and denomination_ stolen from the Holbrook, Merrill & Stetson safe, and putty such as was used in the safe-cracking. Hammel declines to make any statement WESTINGHOUSE SECURES & OONTRA(»J?WFBOM YERKES Will Build the Engines and Genera- tors for the Metropolitan Dis- trict Railway Enterprise.
