WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1901 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, -_ ___.__,______——————"————i_ STRIKE HURTS ONE RAILROAD Switchmen at Pittsburg Unable to Enlist Sympathy. New Men Obtain Places Va- cated by the Union Members. P O PITTSBURG, Nov. 26.—Judging by ap- parent conditions, the switchmen's strike begun this morning has proved a faflure. The strike was ordered by the Switch- | men’s Union of North America, and the | claim was made early in the day by the union officers that every road in the city, with the exception of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago and the Pittsburg, Cin- cinnati, Chicago & St. Louis, would be tied up completely. i The developments of the day, however, demonstrate that only one road, the Le- | high Valley, was seriously affected. On this road but one crew was at work and the road is badly crippled. The company officials, while admitting that Lt traf- fic has been practically suj say that | within twenty-four hours. they-yill have all the men they need and work will be | resumed as usual. The other roads affected were the Balti- more and Ohio, twenty-five men out; the | Pittsburg and Lake Erie, four men out; the | Pennsylvania, fifteen men out. ,One hun- | dred and fifty would be & high estimate | of the total men who struck. None of | these roads suffered much inconvenience, | because new men were readily secured to take the places of the strikers, and some of the men, upon discovering that the strike order had not been generally obeyed, returned to their places. A meeting of the union was held this afternoon and the claim was made that the strike was a success as far as it had gone, and that within forty-eight hours the members of the union, about 700, would be out. The demands of the SwitCh: men call for the enforcement of the standard scale of wages. It is claimed that the Monongahela con- necting lines signed the scale to-day, but the officials of the other roads say they are more determined than ever not to sign. The strikers have not the sympathy of the othertrainmen”, first_vice grand mi hood of Trainmen, is in the city, and says the members of his organization will op- pose the present movement. Should the condition in the Allegheny | Valley, as it existed to-day, be continued longer than two days more, the mills-and factories along the Allegheny River de- ! pendent on it for raw material will be | compelled to close.

Mackay, president.of the Postal Tel graph Company and >f the recently orga- nized Pacific Cable Company, will be here to-morrow for a week’s stay. While here he Wwill 1ok at available cable landings and listen to any proposition that may be advanced for bringing the Pacific cable ! ashore here. The cabie company has succeeded in getting land grants and tne necessary concessions in Hawali, Guam and Luzon for the cable, and the landing place on the Paclific Coast is all that te- mains to be fixed. y The line of survey from San Francisco to Honolulu and that from Los Angeles form two sides of a ‘riangle, with the iong side on the line of the northern sur- vey. The, saving in expense by running the cable from’ Los Angeles would bde nearly $60,000. Secretary Zeehandelaar ‘of the Mer- chants’ and Manufacturers’ Assdciation sald to-day: o “If the site for the station has not al- ready been selected we: will make a.de- termined effort to have the company bring the cable.to Los Angeles. Tne necessary land can be had at a moment's notice, and there are two or three good places for the shoring of the submarine telegraph. line.” i General Manager Storrer was busy to- day getting data for President Mackay, and will present to-morrow the sum of his investigations. —_——— - Brakeman Mack Expires.

Murphy and who sued his estate for $24,000 for ser- vices as nurse, has compromised with the Union Trust Company, the trustee of the estate. This afternoon Miss Smalley was paid $1500 in gold in court. Her attorney gave a receipt in full and dismissed the case. The suit of Miss Smalley, in which a non-suit was given the estate a short time ago, was sensational. An appeal was pending. ' Miss Smalley; who is a niece of “Lucky” Baldwin, had lived with Mur- hy for three years. She claimed that urphy, who was divorced from his wife, had promised to marry her, and also had Ceclared that he intended fo leave her a good share of his property. When his will was opened it was found, she had been “ignored. and the cstate -given to nephews and nieces.

W'GOVERN READY ~ FOR CORBETT Feather-Weights Meet To-Morrow Night at "Hartford.’ —— The Champion Rules Strong Favorite Over the Den- ver Boxer. NEW YORK, Nov. 26.—After eight days’ training for his battle with “Young Cor- bett” of Denver Thursday night at Hart- ford, Terry McGovern took a ten-mile run in the vicinity of Jerome Park this after- noon. Despite the fact that it was freez- ing cold, with a strong wind blowing, he covered the distance in ninety minutes. When he reached his training quarters he was examined by a physician, who de- clared the little champion in perfect trim for the coming contest. B Several persons have informed him that in “Young- Corbett” he will meet the toughest and most rugged opponent of his ring career. He replied to several Questions as to how he felt: “I never felt .better in my: life, and while I have taken no chances and have ‘worked into the best condition I feel con~ fident of the result. They tell me Cor- bett is a two-handed, swift, rushing fight- er of my own style, and I hope he is, for then neither he nor 1 will have any ex- cuses to make when the end comes.” McGovern tipped the scales at 122 pourds to-day. With a road run to-mor- row he Wlll.gnish his training and break camp, leaving for Hartford to-morrow afternoon. He expects to reach the ring- side welghing not more than 124 pounds. Among the sporting men here very little betting .is_being done. McGovern back- ers are offering bets of 2 to 1 on their man, with few takers. Among the sport- ing resorts on upper Broadway some of the sports are making what they call gambling bets on the result, taking odls of 5 to 2, but the prevailing price is 2 to 1 on McGovern. ; HAR! RD, Conn., Nov. 26.—Young Corbett,” who has been working faith- fully four weeks to prepare for his bout with Terry McGovern, put the finishing touches to his training this afternoon be- hind closed doors. lLarge crowds have watched his datly practice and somewhat hmdlcapged him. ~He requested to-day that all be excluded except his trainers, He boxed seéveral hard rounds with Char- ley Sieger and went through his usual practice, which was preceded by an eight- mile run on the road. A physiclan again examined ‘Corbett to-night and pro- nounced him-to be. in fine condition. To- morrow he will take light exercise. POSTOFFICE ATTACHES .

Herculean Once More Fails to Get Away From the Barrier b e 3 OTHING but a plain, everyday _card, one that bore all the ear- marks of one hard to beat, was offered visitors tc Oakland track yesterday, but, notwithstanding, it attracted a fair attendance. There was nothing bordering on’ the miraculous to chronicle. Probably tie dead heat finish between Diderot- and Dunblane at tke conclusion of the third event was the most noteworthy occurrence. Diderot in the betting ruled a 7 to 10 favorite, and the first part of the race was clearly out- footed. Later on, though, while Ransom astride. Forkford - was busily engaged bumping and oiherwise caressing O’Con-| ner on Dunblane, Woods moved up sev- eral holes with the first choice. Forkford drew out of the play not far from the wire, and the judges de:lared a dead heat between Dunblane and Diderot. For his plainly apparent rough riding tactics Ransom was fined 350 by the officials in the stand. The track was heavy and almost hold- ing enough in places to pull the plates from the feet of the equine racers. Her- culean, a 4 to 5 favorite, was again unfor- tunate in _getting left at the post. St. Sever and Mocorito, {wo other prominent choices, proved disappoiniments. By actual computation Sugden, favorite for the first number, a seven-furlong sell- ing affair, must have been at least an hour and fifteen minutes the better horsz. Spencer, who had the mount, was practi- cally left at the post, but caught the bunch before three furlongs had been cov- ered and won almost easing up. Canejo led Rinaldo out for the place. Seven two-year-olds started in the five- furlong sprint following, and it looked an ogen betting - proposition. .- Louwelsea showed a trace of her cld form, and with Bullman in the saddle downed the favor- ite, St. Sever, with little to spare. The ‘winner closed at odds of 7 to 1. Undoubtedly the smartest betting race of the day was the miie and 100 yard run, with Sea Lion, Horton, Goldone and Wyo ming as starters. Each of the quartet re- ceived more or less support, and at post time there was no pronounced choice. The going though suiled Sea' Lion, and after leading throughout he fairly barked in two lengths before Horton. A dozen lengths back Goldone disposed of Gaylon Brown’s old horse for the show. ‘With rculean again on his bad beha- vior and left at the post, Imperious had nothing to beat for the mile and a six- teenth purse. At odds of 4 to 1, Birken- ruth had him in front from the start, win- ning but half-easy from Bob Palmer. Spencer scored his second win of the afternoon- with Hohenlohe in the closing seven-furlong jaunt. Mocorito, the favor- ite, died away to. notning after a spell of it out in the lead, and the Elmwood farm horse then downed First Shot two lengths ridden out. Track Notes. Gill Summers is again the owner of Herculean. After the big chestnut was Aaimed from a race on Monday by H. C. Ahlers, Gill paid an alvance on the price and retained his horse. | Birkenruth and Spencer * divided the saddle honors, each piloting a pair of winners.

COPYISTS MAKE CAAVE CHARGES Say They WereRemoved for Refusing to Pay Assessments. —— Mark Bartlett and Frank H. Urmy, for- merly copyists under Recorder Godchaux, filed affidavits with the Civil Service Commission yesterday alleging that they were dismissed from their positions be- cause they refused to contribute $50 each to Godchaux’'s campaign fund at the last election. .Both men were appointed in April, 1900, from the civil service eligible list of copy— ists. Jrmy was discharged on ‘the 9th inst. and Bartlett lost his official head yesterday morning. In his affidavit Bart- lett alleges that he was compelled to contribute $1 each month to a charity fund in the office and $2 50 monthly to pay a messenger who was not provided for by the Board of Supervisors. He also con- tributed $5 to pay the fees of an attor- ney to defend four copyists who were ap- pointed, \but not from the civil service list, after the Superior Court decided that the Recorder’s office was exempt from civil service. Bartlett further alleges that he was as- sessed $1250 to pay the salary of a copy- ist, W. H. Garnett, whose demand was held up. Bartlett swears that he saw a copyist named Fleischman pay an install- men: of $1250 on the campaign assess- ment. @ Bartlett says he sent a communication on Monday to Godchaux requesti the return of $2250 which he had contributed to the various funds. Frank Urmy in his affidavit corroborates the statements made by Bartlett. Recorder Godchaux says he knew noth- ing of any campaign assessments being collected among his men. So far as the contributions for charity are concerned, dchaux says it was a voluntary matter of the employes. THis was also the case with the other contributions. The Civil Service Commission decided to | refer the complaints to Mayor Phelan, with a recommendation that he exercise the power conferred on him by the char- ter to remove municipal officers. The charter provides: . “Any officer of the city and county who shall, while in office, accept any dona- tion or gratuity in oner or other valu- able thing either directly or indirectly from any subordinate or employe or {rom any candidate or applicant for any posi- tion as employe or subordinate under him shall forfeit his office and be forever de- barred and disqualified: from holding: any position in the service of the city and county.’ The Civil Service: Commission will con- tinue the investigation of all the offices and report its findings to the Mayor.

The Congressional party that visited the Philippine Islands on a tour of investiga- tlon returned here yesterday. The mem- bers, with the exception of Congressman John W. Gaines of Tennessee, left last evening for the East. Congressman Gaines in an interview saldi “We left New York for the islands Julg 10, and left Marila on our return on the transport Sherman October 16. We struck a rock off Moji, and after making Yokohama took the Doric. I do not wish to express an opinion on the question of the Filipinos being capable of self-gov- ernmert until after I read the civil and military _reports that are now on the way to Washington. There are many in- telligent and educated Filipinos. ‘hey were soldiers in the insurgent army, and most of them are now holding high offi- cial positions under the civil governme: The military men are opposed to the civ government, saying that it has been in- augurated too soon. “Governor Taft is the right man in the right place, and he is doing the very best he can under t%? existing_circumstances. General Luke tight ‘is his able assist- ant. Slavery still exists in Jolo and I called the attention of the military au- thoritles to_it. Slavery also exists in the Hawallan Islands, and we may expcet trouble from both quartérs. “The island of Palawoan, which was recently bought by an American syndi- cate of which Prince Poniatowski is the head, will also cause trouble for the| United States authorities in the near tu-“ ture.

Out of an estate valued at $9696, left by Larus Ericksen, who died at theCoso House in December, 1500, his two palf brothers and a half sister, who livé in Germany, ‘will recetve about $5000. The balance will 80 to Attorney Martin Stevens, Public Ad- ministrator Boland and Attorney M. C. Hassett if their claims are allowed. At the time of Ericksen’s death Miss Annie Armstrong, a seamstress, living at the Coso House, presented a will in which she was named as Ericksen's heiress, Judge Troutt appointed Martin Stevens attorney for the absent heirs and a con- test followed, the will being refused pro- bate. The estate was then turned over to the Public Administrator, who for his labor now claims 3504 87, while M. C. Has- sett, his attorney, asks to be allowed a similar sum for advising Boland. Stevens cllalma $1500 is a reasonable fee for his serw vices. The applications for these exorbitant fees were filed in the office of the County Clerk on the 16th inst., when the petition for aistribution was presented. The papers came to light only yesterday, however, when Judge Troutt agreed to hear the pes titions and pass on the claims to-day. ————— CHARGED WITH CONSPIRACY.—William Johneon was arrested for burglary yesterday afternoon by Officer C. D. Staples on complaint of Willlam Cox, who pointed him out as the man he saw ransacking his mother's rooms at 37 Minna street earlier in the day. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. STERILIZED BARBER SHOP.
