East. DEVELOPMENTS OF YESTERDAY. N the strike situation in this city yesterday there came what is considered to be a deeply significant development. councils of the striking workingmen, on the streets, and in places where men congregate there was a feeling of unrest and uncertainty and of fear that the forces of the workingmen were crumbling and that the end of the trouble was close at hand. These rumors, intangible in themselves and impossible of verifi- cation, would not down, even when they were vchemently denied of the workingmen. whence they came, but many anxious inquiries were made at the wvarious union headquarters for verification. erally distributed, indicates that something, is moving for the termination of the industrial troubles in this The Board of Supervisors authorized the Mayor at its meet- ing yesterday to appoint & committee of five members of that body to arrange, if possible, a meeting between the employers and strikers with a view toward securing peace between The committee, of which Supervisor Curtis is chairman, is vested with power to take such action in the prem- An effort will be made to secure the assistance of the loeal bank presidents in the settlement of the strike. that the influence of these gentlemen will be felt among the em- ployers, who positively refuse to recede from the stand taken by Preparations for a great parade by wage workers on Sep- tember 2 are being made.

MANY SHIPS ARRIVE. Increased Activity on Front Despite the Strike. More vessels arriveu in the harbor yes- terday than on any other day since the commencement of the strike. They are all deep water ships and are loaded v\&&h coal and general merchandise. The major- ity of the men comprising the crews are union men, and their arrival will increase the number of idle men along the front, as it is expected that they will all leave ips. e lhfhseh ritish ship Thalatta, from New- castle, England, laden with general mer- chandise, was the first of the fleet to a_ré rive. She anchored in the stream, as dls also the British ship Harlech Castle, from Antwerp, which got in about noon. The Harlech Castle also carries a general cargo. The barks C. B. Kenney and H. Glade and the four-masted schooners %1. C. Wright and Minnie A. Caine, sugn: laden from the islands, came in shortly after 1 o'clock and anchored in the ream. Tho last named vessels will go to the refinery 1o discharge to-day. _ The American ship John Ena, with a cargo of coal from Newcastle, Australia, also arrived, and was followed by the California from Pisagua and the San Jose from Panama. The two last pamed ves- sels are loaded with general merchandise. Barring the arrival of the fleet of decr- water vessels, there was little change in the condition’ of the strike. The usual number of men were at work on the ves- sels along the front and conslderable freight and coal was handled. The whale- back Titania was probably the busiest vessel yesterday. A large gang of men is at work on her unloading her coal into Rosenfeld’s bunkers and_into the hulk Melrose and the collier N umo. The schooner Alpine is also receiving part of Titania’s load. e British hip King Edward was taken from Oakland to Port Costa yes- terda; She has 1ve§n tied up since the first day of the strike. The Coronado is being loaded ,with a cargo of general merchandise at’Broad- way wharf. It is expected that the work of discharging the collier Progreso will be completed to-day. She will leave to- morrow at noon for Tacoma. Forty men were sent to Port Costa yes- terday to work on the vessels there. They were taken up in Crowley's launches. Eighteen of the men were taken from this side and the rest from Oakland. This is the largest number of non-union men sent up to the warehouses in Contra Costa Cou! since the inception of the strike. were engaged by Menzies & Co. oo e g LEADERS ARE OBSTINATE. Cause of Failure of Federation Media- tion Committee. The executive committee of the Munici- pal Federation, which has been engaged for some weeks in the task of bringing about an adjustment of the strike, for- mally abandoned its self-imposed task yesterday. The efforts of the committee to secure a conference between the em- ployers and strikers proved to be futile, and as the object for which it was pri- marily organized has been defeated the committee will retire from business for a time at least. 3 The failure of the committee to solve the strike trouble by securing conces- sions from both employers and strikers and thereby ending the controversy is attributed by several of the members to the unreasonable obstinacy of Michael Casey and Andrew Furuseth, the princi- pal strike leaders. These men absoluteiy refused to negotiate with the Employ 4 Assoclation in any manner whatsoever unless the employers consented to recog- nize them as leaders of the strikers and conduct_all peace negotiations through them. The result was a failure to reacn an agreement and a consgequent settle- ment of the trouble. ““We sought in every way to bring about peace, but failed,” said Joseph Roths- child, a member of the committee, yes- terday.. “We had the affair nearly closed Saturday, and had it not been for the per- sistency of Casey and Furuseth, both of whom_were determined that no negotia- tions for peace would be considered unless the proposals were offered to them per- sonally, the strike might now be ended. “The mplovers’ Association aséured us that any committee of the strikers wouid be welcomed. the sole condition being that neither Casey nor Furuseth be identified with the committee. The em- ployers wished to treat directly with their employes and not with the léaders, with whom they had nothing in common.” This condition was not agreed to, both Casey and Furuseth declaring the adoption of such an agreement virtually meant the betrayal of their followers. I told them if they were honest in their avowals of sincerity and desire for peace they would consent to the proposition. They declined to give their consent to the plan and ne- gotiations were accordingly declared off.” Attorney Rothschild stated further that there was no probability that another of- ficial meeting of the committee would be held. In view of the attitude of both parties to the controversy such a meet- ing not only would be without result but an absolute waste of time. MORE MEN SECURED. Forty-Two Mechanics Take Jobs at Union Iron Works. The working force at the Union Iron Works was increased by the addition of forty-two men yesterday. One of this number was a union molder, who went on strike in May last. The greater part of the remainder are machinists who re- cently arrived from the East. The others are mechanics, who will work in the ship ynrt;:' and in other departments of the works, President Henry T. Scott was jubilant at this increase in his working force. He sald yesterday that the men were given work without questions being asked. =k I have been informed that several of the men are old employes, who went out on May 20,” he said. “The others are from the East. We expected to get a few men to-day, but did not count upon se- curing as many as we did. The prospects for the future are most promising. I think the failure of the machinists’ strike at Kansas City will have A beneficial effect here. The ‘question is one of endurance here, and I thitk we are in a position to hold out 2s long as the striker: The officials of the Iron Trades Coun- cil deny that forty-two men went to work at the Union Iron Works. They admit a few men were secured, but that the num- ber is insignificant. The strikers, they said, are firm and will hold out to the last. PRy et BREWERS DECLARE WAR. Action of Nationai‘;ssocisfion Will Not Affect This City. A dispatch was received in the city yvesterday announcing that the National Association of Brewers at New York had declared war against the National Union of Brewery Workmen, and that hostili- ties would commence on September 1, with a lockout of some 20,000 men. News of such -action has not yet reached the brewers of this city, who are afiiliated with the National Associa- tion. The relations between the brewers and their employes here are of the most amicable character, and it is believed that the action of the national body will have no_ effect upon the brewing inter- ests in_this city. Rudolph Mohr, secretary of the Brew- ers’ Protective Association, said yester- day that the reported action of the na- tional body would not, in his opinion, have any effect upon the brewers in San Francisco. He had not received official notifieation of the reported lockout on September 1, and until he was better in- formed he did not believe the subject worthy of serlous consideration. _— WORKERS ARE ASSAULTED. Several Injured Men Treated at the Emergency Hospital. The physicians in attendance at the Emergency Hospital had numerous cases to attend to yesterday of unfortunate non-union workmen, who were the vic- tims of assaults at the hands of striking teamsters and others, who beat them when they found them unprotected on the streets. Neles C. Johnsen and Samuel Hagen, two men who saw fit to g0 to work at the Western Sugar Refinery, were set upon by eight men at Fourth and Folsom streets and brutally beaten. In addition to receiving several lacerated and con- tused wounds about the head Johnsen re- ceived serious internal injuries, which may result in his death. After being treated by Dr. Boskowitz for his internal injuries he was placed in bed in the hos- pital to await further developments. Hagan, who was with Johnsen, escaped with a lacerated wound of the face ana several contusions of the head. Both men had been at work in discharging a cargo of sugar. F. O'Neil, a teamster who owns the horses and ‘'wagon he uses, while driving along Market street was set upon at Fourth street by three men, who mounted the seat- and pulled him down, beating him in 2 most brutal manner. He had several lacerated wounds dressed at the hospital. In addition to the superficial injuries received, O'Neil is likely to los the sight of one eye, into which some blunt instrument was 'thrust. Aniceto Gomez, a non-union worker re- siding at 122 Taylor sireet, was badly beaten by strikers at Fourth and Town- send streets. No provocation was offered. Gomez’s injuries consisted of laceratea and contused wounds of the head, face and bod Paul Carsegran, who s employed by the Overland Freighit Transfer Compans as a “lumper,” was assaulted by five men last night at the corner of Fourth and Harri- son streeis, where he was walting for a car. He was knocked down, kicked and beaten until T head =nd face were one mass of contusions and lacerations. He was taken to the Emergency Hospital by Officers Carroll and Ward, where it was found that one of his ribs was broken. Cassegran resides at 620 Golden Gate ave- nue. J. Ryerson and F. Bolles, two non-union men, were assaulted last night as they were leaving a Unlon street car at Buchanan sireet and severely punished. T‘hn{ were treated at the Emergency Hos- pital. A small sized riot was caused at the Humboldt Evening School, on Golden Gate avenue, last night by a number of non-union members of the classes, who voiced their sentiments in the hearing of several strike eympathizers. A fist fight, in which a number of black eyes and bloody noses were inflicted, was only end- ed by the appearance of a police officer. No arrests were made. o e Boxmakers Still Firm. The Boxmakers’ Union held a meeting last night at B'nai B'rith Hall and decided to impose a fine of $ on any member who does not march in the parade on Labor day. Reports were submitted to the ef- fect that the members of the union were all standing firm, that the managers of the various factories were making no ef- forts to resume operations, and that the merchants and factories were being sup- plied with boxes made in the interior of the State. The reports stated that a num- ber of the box factories were running, but that their entire forces consisted of the managers, their sons and in some in- stances the clerk; —_——— Stevedores Remain Firm. The riggers and stevedores held a largely attended meeting at 32 O'Farrell street last night, and a resolution was adopted declaring the intention of the union to remain on strike until the fight between the employers and strikers was determined in favor of the latter. A rumor was current yesterday that the stevedores intended “to return to work at once and to withdraw from the City Front Federation. This was alluded 1o at the meeting as a report started by the eamployers in order to produce a break in the ranks of the strikers. The stevedores were addressed by Andrew Furuseth and Michael Casey, and both were loudly cheered. =Labor Parade Monday. 5 NCOURAGED by their recent pa- rade, the labor unions are pre- paring for a magnificent turnout on Labor day. The committee in charge of the arrangements met yesterday morning and decided to send a circular to every union in the city, re- questing it to participate in the parade. The majority of the unions have already signified their intention of turning out’in full strength, and a number of unions have placed a fine of $5 on any member who does not appear in line. The cele- bration will not be held merely to display the numerical strength of the unions, as was done on Saturday, but it will partake of the spectacular. Bands will be inter- spersed' all through the line of march. At the conclusion of the parade appro- priate literary exercises will be held in Mechanicg’ Pavilion. In the evening a ball will be given for the benefit of the men who are out on strike or who are locked out. The circular which will be sent to the various unions reads as follows: SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 2, 1901. To the Unions of San Francisco—Dear Sirs and Brothers, Greeting: The San Francisco Labor Council hereby invites vou to take part in the Labor day celebration to be held o Monday, September 2. The "celebration. will consist of a parade, literary exercises and a ball. The parade will start at 10 or 11 in the fore- noon «definite hour to be announced later), The literary exercises will consist of speak- ing, recitations and music and will be held at the Mechanics' Pavilion after the conclusion of the rarade. The ball will be held at the Mechanies' Pa- villon in the evening, commencing at 8 o'clock and closing at 1 a. m. The literary exercises will be free. Ball tick- ets will be 25 cents; ladles free. The ball will be given for the benefit of' the union men on strike or locked out.

Labor day is our day and let us use it for our enjoyment, for our benefit. We remain, yours for union and progress, by order of the as the Labor day committee, W. H. GOFF, ED ROSENBERG, Secretary. Chairman. Soste Bankers Will Assist. A report was current yesterday that the aid of the presidents of the local banking institutions would be invoked by business men, who believe that their in- fluence will be considerable in securing a settlement of the strike. Several bankers who were questioned vesterday said that while there had been no action taken by them as a body rela- tive to the strike, they were, neverthe- less, willing to do all in their power to bring about a settlement of the diffi- culty. They had little hope of accom- plishing anything, however. inasmuch as other influential bodies of representative business men had failed. It was ad- mitted that the strike was not conducive to profitable banking business, and that the necessity for decisive action of some kind may result in bringing the dispute to a close was imperative. LA A e Striking Painters at Work. OAKLAND, Aug. 26—With the excep- tion of the firm of Cobbledick Bros., the mester painters of this city to-day ac- cepted the terms of the agreement made Friday in San Francisco with the Paint- ers’ Union, carrying the new wage schedule of $350 a day. The striking workmen returned to their jobs this morning. The journeymen painters have agreed that no member shall accept a contract on_his own account without Jjoining the Master Painters’ Assoclation: The steam schooner Mandalay is being discharged at Adams' docks by a non- union crew, as is the steam schooner Crescent City at Derby's yards. The four-masted schooner Muriel is lying at the Puget Sound Lumber Company’s wharf awaiting a non-union gang. ————— Rumor of Withdrawal Denied. There was a rumor along the water front last night to the effect that the marine firemen had held a meeting at which it was decided to withdraw from | the federation and return to work, and that they had appointed a delegate to so notify the other unions. So persistent was this rumor that Police Sergeant Blank telephoned it to police headquarters as a fact. At the union beadquarters, how- ever, it was denied most emphatically that the men had held any meeting or that they conterildplated any such action. Pickets of the Marine Firemen's Union were last night posted as usual. Wittman’s Case Continued. The case of Police Captain George W. Wittman, charged with battery upon James Masse, a marine fireman, was called in Judge Cabaniss’ court yesterday morning. _The courtroom was "crowded. Captain Wittman asked for a continuance till Thursday, as his attorney, John A. Hosmer, would be engaged in fhe Superior Court until then. Attorney John J. Bar- rett, who represents the prosecution, of- fered no objection to the continuance ana it was granted. B ‘Will Support the Federation. The Marine Painters’ Union held its regular weekly meeting last night in Teu- tonia Hall and decided that, although its union is not affiliated with the City Front Federation, it will stand by that organi- zation until the adjustment of the strike. At the solicitation of a committee from the Brotherhood of Teamsters financial support was voted to the striking team- sters. ADVERTISEMENTS.

PAY NO LIGENSE - TOTHE COUNTY Sacramento Saloon Men Await High Court Decision. Loose Construction of New Law Shuts Off Source of Revenue. Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, Aug. 26.—The retall liquor dealers of this city, acting on the advice of their attorney, Elwood Bruner, still refuse to pay the license demanded by the county. They declare they will not pay until the Supreme Court shall have passed upon the case sent up from Los Angeles to test the law passed by the last Legislature, by which, it is claimed, retail liquor dealers who pay revenue to incorporated cities for pur- poses of police regulation, are exempt from paying county license. Attorney Bruner, representing the Re- tail Liquor Dealers’ Association of this city, was before the Board of Supervisors to ascertain whether any action would be taken to force the collection of county licenses by bringing suit. Mr. Bruner said that each member of the association stood ready to pay his license tax, provided the Supreme Court decided the suit of ex parte Firman in favor of the county. Mr. Bruner said he desired to put the money within the reacls of the county in case the Supreme Court decided In its fa- vor, and that he and the District Attorney had agreed, subject to the action of the Board of Supervisors, to place the license money in the national bank of D. G. Mills | & Co., subject *o the demand of the coun- ty in case the Supreme Court should de- cide that it is entitled to the same. Mr. Bruzer, when asked for an opinion, said he believed the casc would be decided against the counties, and that until the law was repealed by the Legislature the coun- ty would derive no revenue from .any sa- loon that pays a city license. It was for that reason that he fell it his duty to ad- vise the people he represented to refuse to ray the tax. After much discussion the Supervisors decidcd that they should be guided by the advice of the District Attorney, who was requested to submit a_written opinion at the October session. Until ihen ncthing will be done 1> compel payment of the li- censes. Sacramento is only one of a number of counties that are expetiencing this same trouble owing to the loose construction of the new license law. ADVERTISEMENTS. BRADFORD QUICKSILVER MINE SAN BENITO C0.

B. SMITH. ! Mrs. T. B. Smith, hospital matron, Oma- ha Barracks, writes from 2327 N. Clark street, Chicago, Ill., as follows: “Peruna seemed to be the favorite tonic among the soldlers at the barracks. If they were weak or convalescent after an fliness it would build them up and restore thelr strength in a very few days. I used it myself last fall for a ver{ severe back- ache and bearing-down pains and found that three bottles completely cured me."'— MRS. T. B. SMITH. Peruna is the favorite tonic not only among soldiers, but among all classes of Any one weak or convalescent after an acute illness will find Peruna to hasten their recovery and help them re- gain_their usual strength and vigor. !

It cures by stimulating the ap- petite, strengthening the digestion, quick- ening’ the circulation and producing an equilibrium of the various functions of the body. Mrs. Anna Miller, Stoneville, Ohilo, writes: “If it had not been for Peruna I would have been dead now. I am stout and hearty; I would not be without Peruna for anvthing.
