THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY AUGUST 26, 1901 BRISK SCRIMMAGE IN SIGHT ' FOR SACRAMENTO’S MAYORALTY Four Candidates Will Try for the Honor and Bitter Battle Is Expected at the Capital. s~ ACRAMENTO, Aug. 25.—The polit- d ical parties have filed the neces- S\ sary petitions for the approaching £ primary election and the various factions have entered upon the 1 alty battle in earnest. Interest just w centers upon the probable line of ac- n of the present Mayor, George H. e THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. ey e e —_— That he has won the enmity of Colonel J. B. Wright and the other Republican powers is no longer & matter of doubt. The Republican Central Committee has, in sccordance with the evident intention to shut Clark out from renomination, de- cided to apportion fts delegates to the convention by the two Assembly Dis- tricts embraced by the city, instead of by the nine ward boundaries.

TACOMA, Aug. 2.—A murder is re- ported to have been committed on the Yakima Indian Reservation, within six miies of North Yakima. Charley Honne- | washe is missing and the Indians say he | was killed and his body was thrown in the Yakima River. A torn hat and a | bioody handkerchief are the only relics | of the missing brave. John Smut, an | Indian, is accused of the murder. A posse of the murdered man's friends has gone into the mountains to which Smut escaped. They have taken pro- visions for an extended stay and declare | that Smut will be hunted down and| either hanged or tortured to death to answer for his many misdeeds. The of- ficers of Yakima County are endeavoring | 1o persuade them to turn Smut over to | the law if they get him. | Two years ago Honnewashe and an In- | dian interpreter known as Charley Ike | testified in the Federal Couri here that | Smut had sold liquor to the Indians. It being his first conviction he escaped with a light sentence. Later he threatened to kill both Honnewashe and Ike. Not long after the latter was murdered at Puyal- lup. Smut was suspected, but no direct evidence was obtainable. It is believed he has also killed Honnewashe out of revenge. Fishermen Find a Child’s Body.

The body was floating when first seen about two hundred yards ea: of the place of drowning, in some keip which was tangled in her hair, no doubt helping to prevent the body from rising to the surface sooner.

ALAGKAN LAN FOR GOLONISTS Efforts Are Being Made to Open Millions of Acres. B ey Epecial Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, Wash., Aug. 25.—The Pacific Coast Company has in contemplation a scheme which, if carried out, and desired changes are made in the land laws of the United States, will result in the peopilng | Finns and will be of Alaska by Norweglans, Swedes, and the entire country made self-sustaining. This scheme provides for the opening | up of millions of acres of low land along the southeastern coast and the interio- of Alaska and permitting homeseekers to occupy them and develop the agricul- James G. Woodworth, trafic manager of the Pacific Coast Company, has had the matter in hand for some time. He says: “No conscientious agent of a_ transpor- tation company would, under the present laws, hold out to homeseekers any in- ducements, for it is only possible for an Alaskan settler at present to take up land under what is known as ‘“squatters’ rights,” and consequently his title would be insecure. With general land laws ap- plied directly to Alaska, more land offices established, and base Iines surveyed at the expense of the Government, home- seekers will flock to the North and the Swede or Norwegian will find himself in a land, the climatic conditions of which are identical with those of his native country. It is only a question of time when this will be accomplished and our company will do and 1= doing all that is possible to bring about-this result.” Strikers Picketing Despite Injunctior CHICAGO, Aug. 2%.—Striking machin- ists of the Allis-Chalmers and the Gates Iron Works continued picketing the plants to-day, despite the temporary injunction issued by Judge Kohlsaat. It is rumored that five imported machinists who ven- tured outside the plant were waylaid and severely beaten by the friends of the strikers. Former Governor J. P.

The Demo- crats are considerably in the minority, but with the almost certain prospects of & four-cornered fight they are hoping .for victory. The onlf' Democrat who has thus far announced his candidacy is James H. Devine. He is a present City Trustee, and, although his ward is Republican, it returns him to the municipal board time after time. Devine is considerable of a pamphleteer and his treatises on the water question, with frequent attacks upon the newspapers, are treasured among local literary achievements. He is a man of independent fortune, has the reputation of being strictly honest, and even those who rail at his radicalism are free to admit his popularity with the masses. Ex-Senator Frederick Cox, who has for some vears served with distinction upon the State Board of Agriculture, has been mentioned as splendid material, but it is thought that the Democrats will not be able to induce him to accept the nomina- tion. Position of Colonel Wright. It is rather an interesting fact that while Colonel J. B. Wright has been deposed as the Southern Pacific” division superintendent the belief is general in this city that he is still rendering the company service in a political way and that, with the retirement of President Hays, it will be only a matter of time when he will be reclothed -1n_the fullness of his former authority. The famous oil land suit which Mayor Clark brought against him has not been decidéd vet, but the rupture which it occasioned has not been patched up and Mavor Clark Is feeling the conse- quences of his going into court. As to the Mayor's chances in the event of his running independent, his friends declare that they are better than those of any candidate whose name has been put forward. With four candidates in sight the coming Mayoralty election promises to be the liveliest ever witnessed here. Several millions of dollars will, it is ex- pected, be expended in public’ improve- ments the next few years, and there is an ambition to shine as the Mayor of the new Sacramento.

PITTSBURG, Aug. 25.—Some remark- able changes in the condition of the strike ridden mills of the United States Steel Corporation are promised for the present week that will alter the aspect of affairs considerably if carried out. It was sald on good authority to-day that before the end of the week those plants that have been operating on single turn would be run will full force and for the usual three full turns each day. Men enough have been engaged for this purpose, the offi- clals say, In spite of the claims of the strikers that the companies could not get enough men to operate their plants, and the managers of the various mills say they will be ready with all the skilled men required to start up the machinery and turn out a heavy tonnage. The most interesting situation is in the Star mill of the American Tinplate Com- pany here. This plant was until this sum- mer considered as doomed. The Tin Plate | Compary had, it is said, decided to aban- | dor the mill 'and move the machinery elsewhere. Since the strike has come upon them, and it was demonstrated that the operation of the mill with non-union men was possible under the protection of declded to keep this mill goihg, make ex- in -its equipment and make it a permanent fixture of the company. The most significant feature of this plan has been carried out during the past week. This consists of fitting the mill in the same manner as that of the Monessen, Pa., plant. The former eight mills have been changed to four double mills. Other improvements have been added that will give the plant a larger capaclty, Increase its force of men and make it one of the most modern of all the tin plants of the country. Skilled Workmen Smuggled In. ‘With the completion of these improve- ments the company will be prepared to place a sufficient number of men in the plant to work the fcur double mills, three full turns. This is said to be expected to take place during the yresent week. Be- | fore Saturday, according to Superintend- | ent Piper of the Star mills, the plant will | be operated to its full extent. Referring to the present condition of the mills Mr. Piper said: “‘We received eight skilled men early this morning. J. R. Philipps of the com- pany accompanied them to the mill, and it was not until after they were in and comfortably settled for the night that the strikers discovered their presenc | Those men are of the best in the trade and will enable us to move the plant on a better basis than before.” Outside of the Star plant to-day a large number of strikers were on picket duty. They were qulet and orderly but had their eyes and ears open for any signs of new- comers. The peculiar feature of tne strike about the Star plant is the good feeling displayed between the strikers and the manager of the plant. When the strikers were told of the claims of the officials of the Star mills they denfed that there were as many skilled men at work as was claimed, and said those who were in the plant were sent there from the Monessen plant, which was being crippled in order to ac- complish this work. Strenuous denials were also made regarding alleged deser- tions from the Amalgamated ranks to fill the positions offered by the corporation, and it was said that it would be impossi- ble to obtain men enough to operate the plant without settling the strike. Theré was no c! e in the situation regarding the tube mills to-day. Former employes remained away from the plants. It is understood that the officials of the National 1ube Company have practically determined not to start these plants for the present. Everything at McKeesport is reported quiet. Pickets are around the Demmler tin plate mill in large numbers, but they are orderly and are determined to be on hand all night, as they believed an at- | tempt would be made to start the plant in the morning. While the fires are light- ed and the mill apparently in readiness for a start, the officials will not say just when the attempt will be made. Further Peace Proposals. In furtherance of the ‘‘peace” pro- gramme, which is sald to have been In the course of preparation for several days, it was given out to-day by one on the inside and one who should know, that | the Amalgamated executives have con- | sented to have certain propositions made to the officials of the United States Steel Corporation through members of the con- clliatory committee of the National Clvic | Federation, which proposals are expected to bring about a settlement of the great strike. Those interested in the matter were in waiting all day for word to pro- | ceed with the programme as outlined at | the conference of Amalgamated execu- tives and the conciliatory committee of the Civic Federation last Friday. The propositions which are to be taken to New York carry certain conditions by the Amalgamated Association which it is hoped will pave the way for the reopening of direct negotiations between the asso- ciation and the company. The proposition | carries much of the terms under which President Shaffer and his advisers stand willing to settle. What these terms are and the mode of | their presentation are carefully guarded secrets. There is alone the implication that they contain concessions of such im- portance that those in interest expect the corporation to drop its adverse attitude and reopen negotiations. The proposal contains nothing looking to arbitration. This mode of settlement was walved on the. advice of the Civic Federation men. £ While the conferees were discussing plans the Amalgamated men were shown the impracticability of _sympathetic strikes by the miners and other organized men affiliated with the American Federa- tion of Labor. Shaffer’s Action Questioned. The action of President Shaffer in abro- gating the wage contracts with the Fed- eral Steel Company, covering Its Western mills and in other instances, was ques- tioned. Messrs. Mitchell, White and Jenks | spoke of the importance of strict obsery- ance of wage agreements as contracts by the labor unions. President Shaffer main- tained his position to the satisfaction of most of the conferees. It has been reported that the conferees | disapproved the move in abrogating the | Federal Steel Company contracts and told | President Shaffer so with unmistakable | emphasis. Of this, Lowever, Secretary John Wiliiams said to-day that during the conference he had heard no adverse criti- | cism_by the Civic Federation conferees | on the attitude of President Shaffer in | this matter of contracts. SKILLED MEN WALK OUT. Carnegie Company’s Mills in Law- renceville Crippled. PITTSBURG, Aug. 2%.—It was stated to- night that when the lower union mills of the Carnegie Company in Lawrenceville were ready to start. the officials discov- |/ ered they were short about sixty of the skilled men who_had been wdrking theve up to last night. As a result two of the roughing mills were idle, the twelve-inzh mill crippled, the plate mill was operatin; only about half the number of heats, an the nine-inch mill is still out and will not be operated. The skilled men; it is said, quit work only because they were mem- bers of the Amalgam#ited Association and obeyed the orders issued to them. All those who remained at work in the mill are understood to be receiving full pay, whether the plant is operated full or not. Ten-Ride Tickets on the Coast Linec.

OVER, Eng., Aug. 25.—Mr. Hol- bein, who yesterday, the anniver- sary of Captain Webb's swim from Dover to Calais, started from Cape Gris-Nez (between Boulogne-Sur-Mer and Calais) in an at- tempt to swim to Dover, narrowly es- caped drowning. He covered the course to a point within six miles of Dover and then collapsed after ha.vlnf been in the water twelve hours and forty-six min- utes. The tug which accompanied him took him from the water and brought him to Dover this morning. He was carried to a hotel in a seml-conscious, precarious state, and subsequently, on the advice of his medical attendants, was removed to a hospital, where he lay for some time in a serious condition. It was found that hms salt water. To-night, however, he had recovered and announced his intention to renew the attempt. His exploit was very remarkable, con- sidering the roughness of the sea, and has established a record. He found it impossible to take solid food and sub- sisted mainly on raw eggs. He also took hot milk from a feeding bottle. He swam with a powerful stroke, alternately on his back and on his breast, making a 00d pace. The first six miles from Cape ris-Nez were covered in two hours and twenty-five minutes. Much of the time he swam with his eyes closed, owing to the irritating effects of the salt water. Instructions to Holbein were shouted through a megaphone, and powerful acetylene lamps were lighted to guide him. At the end of the sixth hour he was swimming well, but he began to complain the rocks at Cape Gris-Nez, but not men- tioned before. After 11 o'clock he was once lost for five minu’ a big wave having swept over him. He kept going steadily, but during the tenth and eleventh hours a westerly tide drifted him much out of his course and it was evident that the heavy seas were having a bad effect. During the twelfth hour his stroka weakened considerably, and he seemed unable to grasp the directions given him. Twice he turned completely around. At 4:20 a. m. it was decided to take him out of the water. He was turning like a top and hopelessiy biind. Allowing for his zigzag course, it is es- timated that he swam _sixteen miles. ‘When he was taken from the*water Dover was about five miles north-northeast.

Assistant Secretary Tighe Arraigns South Chicago Steel-Workers. CHICAGO, Aug. 25.—The only visible result of the mass meeting of trades unionists and sympathizers held in South Chicago to-day was the declaration of one skilled_worker, that he would not agaln enter the mill until the strike was settled. The steel workers, whom the meeting was designed to report, were not present in appreciable numbers. Assistant Scretary Tighe of the Amal- gamated Association was the principal speaker and denounced former members of the association in South Chicago, “for deserting their union under the guise of living up to a contract.” Tighe contends that the contract of the steel workers has been rendered nugatory by the encroachments of the steel trust, and that it was the duty of the Chicago steel workers to join their fellow unionists in the East, in a battle where, he said, the very existence of the Amalgamated Assoclation was at stake.- Capture of an Alleged Murderer.
