At the convocation of San Francisco Consistory No. 1, Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Masonry, in the Masonic Temple last night, a class of fifty-one can- | didates, the largest upon which the thir- | ty-second degree has ever been conferred, was initiated in a manner which for per- fectness and impressiveness won the ad- miration of all of the 250 who were pres- ent to witnees the ceremony as performed by the officers, who are as follows: | A. Vorbe, editor of Le Franco-Californien, Frank C. Van Schalck; sub-prior, James A. Wilson; chancellor, Charles W. Conlisk; minis- | ter of state, Harry J. Lask; almoner, Willlam | §. Moses; registrar, Henry Burner; treasurer, Samuel W. Levy; prelate, Robert E. Allan. | marshal of ceremonies, Joseph D. Abrams; ex- |pert, H. D. Grauerholz; assistant expert, George G. Gauld; master of guard, A. J. de | Lamare; steward, John d'Arcy. | This event was followed by a banquet, 2t which the venerable master of Kadosh | presided as toastmaster. After the black coffee had been served Charles L. Patton was called upon for a few remarks. He spoke of the work that had been per- formed, of the lessons that Masonry teach and denounced anarchy and ‘those that aid it” for having laid low the noblest Mason that ever lived. Frank McGowan, one of the class ini- tiated, delivered a short address on Ma- sonry, which he declared teaches loyalty to government and fealty to those who | are at the head of the government, and | declared that there is now a new danger that threatens the nation and that the viper, anarc that is rising from the sewer - of civilization must be crushed. When the time came, he saild, every Mason would be ready to-do his duty in assisting to_crush the monster that is showing its head in this country. - H. Crocker then had a few words to say on the subject of the new hall which s to be erected on the site of Red Men’s Hall, on Post street, for the Scot- tish Rite. The site, he sald, had been se- cured for $110,000, and all but $31,000 of this amount had peen secured. He said that during the day he had received a letter inclosing a check for $15000 as a subscrip- tion to the stock of the new enterprise. “Who signed the check?” was asked from many parts of the hall. Mr. Crocker then said, “John D. Spreck- els,”” and what he sald after that was drowned by the clapgi‘:g of hands and the stamping of feet, wi was kept up for Bev nutes. 14.50 Many Candidates Initi-| Amount of HE week ended uneventfully so . far as the strike situation is con- cerned. The air is full of predic- tions of what will occur early In the coming week, and the employ- ers say that the long-expected break in the ranks of the union teamsters will not be long deferred. On the other hand, the strike leaders say their followers are just as determined as ever not to return to work until their demands are conceded. The following statement was issued last night by George Renner, manager of the Draymen's Association: For the week ending Saturday, September 28 the Draymen's Association reports a satisfas tory increase in the business of its members in nearly every line and a gradual rewrn to the normal state of affairs as they were be- fore the strike. According to figures furnished the association headquartets by its members 2 per cent of the teams and wagons in use before the beginning of the strike are now engaged in transporting merchandise. Some of the firms are employing more teams than they did before the beginning of the trouble and none of them are running under 70 per | cent of the usual amount. The smaller con- | ccrns, as a general rule, have attained a high- er percentage toward a return to normal con- ditions than the Jarger firms, due to the iact that they have been less troubled by fears of | violence, | For the first time since the beginning of the | strike the employers are in a position to exer- cise discrimination In the choice of applicants for positions. A gradual weeding out of in- competent men is going om, and the efficiency of those who are filling the strikers' piace: is increasing. All the firms report that the new | men exhibit as great adaptability to the work as the former employes except in the cases of special lines, which require long experience. They are confident that in a short time all ge eral lines of work will be handled as rapdly and as carefully as they were by the old employes. g Regarded from .the employers' view the situ- ation is in every way satisfactory. Out of 104 wagons in use re the strike by mem- bers of the assoclation our reports show that over 950 are employed. This number could be increased_considerably 1f the state of bus warranted it. Nearly all of the cerns and some of the larger on ing business up to their normal capacity have no difficulty In securing drivers or spe- cial policemen. James McNab of McNab & Smith as- serts that his firm is doing more than its usual amount of business. C. W. Baird manager of the Overland Freight Tran fer Company, sald his firm had eigh four teams out and would have the full complement of 100 if business warranted it. The Western Trans Company | claims to be doing its usual amount of business, while the Morton Drayage and Warehouse Company places the business it is doing at 75 per cent of the normal amount. The G. W. Emmons Company places its business at the same per cent- age. The Stetson-Renner Company has almost reached the average of business | done before the strike. F. D. Schuyler, manager of the Independent Employment Bureau, says that all applications for teamsters have been filled with the éx- ception_of applications for men able to drive four-horse trucks and to handle baled hay. A BRITISH CAFPTAIN PLEASED. Compliments for Chief Sullivan fox | Changed Conditions. . Chief of Police Sullivan has received an indorsement of his policy in preserving the peace of the water front from the ROADS LEAD TO PATTOSIEN'S, frich:ioie along the city front. These men have had to pay their full share of tribute to the methods of the union vicket. They them- selves have been stopped, cross-ques- tioned and insulted, and have had their authority over their own men defied. Some of these men have been brutally beaten. To such a pass dld affairs come that Cap- tain Pgitchard of the British bark Had- don Hall appealed to the British Consul for protection. Acting Consul Wellesley | | s | Moore applied to Chief of Police Sullivan | as a step preliminary to making an appeal through his government to the Federal authorities. Suilivan immediately increased the force along the line of docks and adopted rigor- ous methods for wiping out the water front violence committee. Lieutenant Price and a picked squad were intrusted with the task and they did the work thoroughly. With the wholesale arresting of union | pickets, the stream of broken heads which i ad kept the surgeons at the Harbor Hos- pital busy almost entirely ceased. The | midnight robbery became an infrequent occurrence and folks bent upon legitimate Jbuslness are now able to pursue their ways without molestation. Captain Pritchard of the Haddon Hall, who is_also a lieutenant of the British Royal Naval Reserve, was asked by the British captain in port to convey to the | police authorities an expression of the | blessings of the lately found peace. The following is his letter: Bark Haddon Hall of Liverpool, San Francisco, Sept. , 1901, Willlam P. Sullivan Jr. Esq., Chief of Police, San Francisco, Cal.—Dear Sir: I, as master of the above vessel, at the request and with the sanction and approval of several British ship- masters here in port and at present occupying berths along the city front, hereby desire with pleasure to express our gratitude to your good self and your very attentive staff for the care- ful protection accorded during the past two weeks to ourselves, our crews and the floating property under our care and for which we are responsible. When I brought my ship alongside Howard- street wharf conditions along the city front Were such as to cause me frequent annoyance and serious anxlety. When of an evening I left my ship I was subject, both going and coming, to a series of cross-examinations as to my identity. my profession, my rank and the particular business upon which I was bent. This of itself, to say the least, was very an- noying, but on the Ist inst. this unwarranted interference reached a climax. [ Senior Apprentice Hickman of the ship En- o glehor! the eame company as the Haddon Hall, was ordered to report for duty upon my vessel. He accompanied an express wagon en- gaged to transfer his effects to the whart. Tpon his arrival the wagon was surrounded by men, who announced themselves as union pick- ets. One of the number struck the young man | In the face, while the others took possession of his_effe 1 protested against such arbitrary action and matters were looking rather serious | When Police Officer Ingham arrived on the scene and_dispersed the threatening mob. On the ith inst. three of my men were at- tacked on Kast and Market streets. Through his British Majesty's Consul your assistance was invoked. Since then our discharging has progressed on schedule time without interfer- ence of any kind, thanks to the efficient pro- tection furnished by vour officers under Cap- tain Dumnfeavy and to ILdeutenant Price and his night staff, to whom I and all others com- { pelled to traverse the water front after dark owe a debt of gratitude.

Charles Rowland and Axel G. (farlsnn.! , who were indicted by the Grand | Jury Friday, were arrested yesterday and | aken to the County Jaifl. They were re- each, | Rowland is accused of robbery commit- | ted on Special Officer A. Cochrane and the case has been before Judge Cabaniss. It was on his calendar yesterday, but as he | had not been officialiv notified of the ac- | tion of tae ad Jury he continued it | untit October 3. There is another case of | robb gainst Rowland before Cabaniss. | Carlson 1 rged with assault to mur- der for shooting at Special Officer Furey on the Oceanic dock. His case was before | Judge Fritz, and stricken from his calendar vesterday owing to the action of the Grand Jury. Robert Ellis, a striking teamster, who ' was arrested en a charge of assault to | murder, appeared hefore Judge Cabaniss yesterday and the care was continued for a week to give the police a chance to ar- rest three other strikers who are wanted for the same offense. The complaining witness is Thomas Costello, a non-union teamster for Magner & Scott. On Sep- tember 17 he was dragged from a buggy by four men snd struck over the head with a bottle. He identified Ellis as one of his assailants. FIRED UPON STRIKERS. Special Officer Morton Resents At- | tack With Revolver. | Much excitement was caused at the corner of Third and Tehama streets by the firing of two pistol shots at 5:30 o'clock last evening. The trouble was caused by a quartet of strikers in the St. David's House, who threw bottles at 1 Officer Morton, who was guarding ieamster in the employ of the Union ansfer Company, and who fired his re- er twice at the window in which the strikers were clustered. The St. David's House is at 715 Howard street, and it has also an entrance on Tehama street. While the special was conducting the teamster past the rear of the building four men appeared at a win. dow on the second floor and hurled sev- eral bottles at the teamster and his es cort. The latter drew his revolver and fired quickly without, however, hitting any of the men. An attempt was then made to enter the building, but before the | door could be unlocked the men had fled. They are known to be reckless characters | and they will be arrested on sight. H USES CLUB ON SALOONKEEPER. Harry Rosseter Arrested on Com- plaint of Strikers’ Champion. Harry Rosseter of the firm of J. T. Ros- seter & Co. was arrested yesterday on a warrant sworn to by Con Donahue, a sa- loon-keeper, charging him with an assault to commit murder. About a week ago Rosseter was leaving the company’s coalyard, at 524 First street, when he was attacked by a gang of strikers. Drawing a club Rosseter, who a short time ago was appointed a special policeman, charged his assailants | and soon put them to flight. Donahue, who conducts a saloon contiguous to the | scene of the fight, went to the rescue of the beaten strikers and was_ himself | knocked out, receiving an ugly gash in | the head. After waiting until yesterday | Donahue appeared before Judge Fritz and swore to a warrant for the arrest of Ros- | seter. The latter was at once released on | $2000 bonds. A short time ago Rosseter was attacked l by a gang of strikers. who endeavored to break his arm. He managed to free him- self from them, but not until they had | severely injured his wrist. PICKETS MAKE AN “ARREST.” Quartermaster Gillen “Does Time” at Union Headquarters. John Gillen, a quartermaster employed by the Pacific Mail Company, asserts that he was on Friday ‘arrested” by union pickets and taken to the headquarters of the City Front Federation, He was de- tained there from 5 until 11 o’clock p. m. Prior to his ‘“arrest” he and two ship- mates were attacked by unlon plekets. The others got away. Gillen was again attacked near the door of the Mail dock when returning from his incarceration, but the appearance on the scene of Cap- tain Anderson put his assailants to flight. | Samuel Batten, chief steward of the steamship City of Panama, was held up Friday night about a half-block away from ‘the Mail dock by a band of union pickets. After cross-examining him_they refused to allow him passage along Bran- nan street and ordered him back to the dock. Unarmed and outnumbered, he was obliged to obey and compelled to spend the night on board ship. | Bty Assaults on Non-Union Men. Matthew Paulson, a teamster in the em- ploy of the Unicn Transfer Company, was the victim of a brutal assault at Second and Harrison streets at 6 o'clock last night. He was returning to the stables of the company, and while passing under the Harrison street bridge some hoodlunis on the bridge hurled several missiles down upon him. He was struck on the head with a stone_and suftered a laceration of the scalp. He fell unconscious, and on being | picked up was taken to St.. Mary's Hos- pital, where his wound was dressed. Leé Moody, a driver for the California ‘Wine Association, was viclously assaulted about 11 o'clock last night at the corner | of Golden Gate avenue and Market street | | by a crowd of striking teamsters. Moody and a friend nad just turned into Golden Gate avenue when he was struck by one of three men who were following him. He turned and ran through the crowd, across Market street and into a saloon’ at the corner of Sixth and Mission streets. One of the same gang followed him and knocked him in a heap in a corner of the barroom, besides tearing down some of the furnishing. The striker escaped. Moody came here from San Jose. | George Keeran, a lumber piler, was at- | tacked by a crowd of strikers at Sixth and Folsom streets at 11 o'clock last night. He was beaten almost insensible. Both his eyes were closed and four scalp wounds Inflicted. His assailants accused him of being a non-union teamster and after beating him they robbed him of a $35 gold watch. While Keeran was being beaten he saw another gang beating a non-union man but a few yards away. —_— Unemployed Stranger Is Beaten. * Patrick Sullivan, a laborer, who recent- 1y arrived here from Boston, was another ADVERTISEMENTS.
