SONS NEAR 173 END Boston Employers Are Pleased at Close of the Strike. Governor Advises Delay That Adjustment May Be Complete. BOSTON, March 15.—The labor. situa- | tion in this city after a week of aglta- i ticn and anxiety Is gradually assuming |a normal condition and at the close of | business to-day the great majority of the | freight handlers, teamsters and express- | men who joined out of | strike of the freight handlers of the New | York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad | or. Wednesday and Thursday had returned | to work. As announced by Governbr | Crare just before leaving the State House | to-nignt, the disposition of all parties is to allow a reasonable time to adjust mat- ters, and in the meantime to be patient. Much to the satisfaction of the business | community, freight began to move to-day { end much work was accomplished' in re- | lieving the congestion of freight at the | different distributing points. The State | Boara of Arbitration at 3 p. m. issued the | following statement: “The strike condition continues to im- prove. The coal people are worklng, with | few exceptions. The Clyde Steamship | Company will take back all its men as | soon as the ships arrive. One is expected | to-morrow. The Metropolitan Steamship | Company has fifty-four of their men at |werk and will take many more later. | Nine-tenths of the general teamsters are | at work.” 5 To add to the general satisfaction over the labor situation in Boston came the, word late this afternoon that amother | labor war in the mills of Fall Rivér had | been averted, so that the week closed | with something like peace in the old Bay | State. | The work of reinstatement, which, | through the efforts of the Governor, be- | gan yesterday, continued to-day, but in a { greater degree. Of the 80 men of tke | Bostor. and -Maine road, who struck | Wednesday, 750 were offered thefr old po | sitions by President Tuttle this morning, and he also stated that the remainder | would be taken care of in a short time. | The same disposition was shown at the | beston and Albany offices, where ar- rangements were made to take back the ©ld men at their former wages and at the me time have their work in no way con- | flict with the new men, who are all non- | union. | This was also acceptable to the labor organizations, and this afternoon the men { began to report for duty. The fact that | the general teamsters were at work made | it imperative that the railroads should | complete their laboring forces, as a great | amount of merchandise is now being col- | lected all over the city and hauled to the freighthouses. All the coal teamsters | were at work again to-day, as well as | the piano-movers and the woolhandlers. The lumber yards, however, continued closed, and those old men who sought their places found themselves locked out. The dealers, however, announced that the | yaras would open again Monday and that nearly all the men will be taken back in accordance with the Governor's sugges- tion. There was a little flurry this morning | among the striking men when, upon re- turning to their old offices, they found that at present their services were not required. The men rushed back to their readquarters and for a while indulged {n debate, but the counsel of leaders pre- vailed and the men decided to be patient. that the worst was over and that Mon- day would see a general resumption of | Fusiness. PY ool lefefofofedofododotoh @ Alat THE BARG ON IMMIGRANTS Atlantic Steamship Com- panies Introduce a New System. BERLIN, March 15.—The North Ger- man Lloyd and Hamburg-American Steamship companies have had so much tlie Unit ed States who have been exclud- ed under the American immigration laws that they have now entered into an agree- ment with the Prussian railway officers under which the latter agree to refuse transportation to persons from ~Austria and Russia who fail to meet certain re- quirements. The Russian emigrants, according to the requirements, must have a pass, a steamer ticket to an American port .and $100 in nioney. Austrian emigrants must be sim- ilarly provided, except for the pass. They must also present a certificate from the examining agents of the companies. The Government has laid the emigra- tion report for 1901 before the Relchstdg. It shows that German emigrants for the year numbered 22,073, the smallest num- ber for many years. Of these emigrants 15,516 went to the United States. The provinece of Posen contributed the heav- iest emigration. # Herr Wiegand, director general of the North German Lloyd Company, gave an interview to-day which is calculated to allay the fears of the public lest the North German Lloyd and the Hamburg- American companies become ' American- ized. He assured his interviewers that he had found among New York capitalists that they had never had the slightest in- tention of acquiring the lines. He also sald he ascertained in New York that very few shares of the North German Lloyd Company were held there. He de- clares that if the American and English steamship lines form a trust the German steamship companies will not take part in it. p N Dr. Paulsow, the prominent librarian, attacks the proposed duty on books as aimed chiefly against the United States and England. The bill provides for a duty of 30 marks per 100 kilos on bound books. Dr. Paulsow asserts that the American and English book trade seems almost exclusively hbound books, and that, therefore, books in the English lan- gvage are hit hardest. He assafls the statement made by Count Posadowski- Wehrner in the Reichstag that the export trade in German books to the United States had suffered on account of the American duty, which he declared is’ im- rossible because no duty is imposed on bogks printed in foreign languages. e Nearly Four Millions the Capital. - BUTTE, Mont., March 15.—A special to the Miner from Helena says the Nipper Consolidated Copper Company organized in thé State of New York to-day filed its articles of incorporation with the Secre- tary of State of Montana. The amount of capital stock is given as $3,750,000. The in- corporatoys and directors are: Gifford, A. P. Hefnze and Richard Harvey, all of New York.

Two Men Speed Rifle Bullets at Each Other at Short Range. Empty the , Magazines in Their Weapons Before They Yield to the Effects of Their ‘Wounds. | Special Dispatch to The Call. RENO, March 16.—A duel was fought in Purdy this morning at 10:30 o'clock with | rifles at short range, and both contest- ants are dead. The quarrel was over a triffle—a bit of ground worth no more than the powder the fighters burned in killing each other. The principals in the duel were A. A. Smith and Reese Evans. The former was commonly known as ‘‘Brundage” Smith and lived In the country north of Reno for ‘many years. He was a well-known character. The other duelist was a mere boy, a son of the late David Evans, who once kept the Antelope station. For the past year the two had been quarreling over a little strip of ground. Fences were torn down and re-erected. The quarrel culminated this morning, when Evans went to Smith's cabin, armed with a Winchester. Smith had a similar weapon, and after a brief dispute both began shooting. Each man is said to have emptied the magazine in his rifle. Although they were at close range nearly all the shots went wild. These probably were the ones fired after the men were fi‘st wounded. Smith was shot twice through the body nd had one arm shattered. He lived only |a few minutes. Evans received a ball through his left lung. Word was sent Lo | Reno and Drs. Woods and Lewis went jout. Evans had lost so much blood that | it was impossible to bring him to town. | He dlea at 9:30 o'clock to-night. | Both of the fighters were well known in | Reno and each had a number of friends. L e e e e o e ol PORTO RIGANG ~ MAKE PROGRESS Governor Hunt Pleased With His Recent Tour. SBAN JUAN, Porto Rico, March 15.— Governor Hunt and his party, who have been visiting coast towns of the island, returned to-day by automobile from Guayama. The Governor expresses him- | self as delighted with his trip and as be- ing particularly gratified with the excel- lent spirit of the people and the gerierous, enthusiastic reception accorded the party. Everywhere the party stopped banquets, balls and other entertainments were given in their honor. The Governor says he did not see many idle persons. He also says the crop of sugar in the island is heavy and the coffee crop satisfactory, and that in another year these crops will reach a normal condition. New tobacco flelds are visible on all sides. The health of the people is good, the Governor says, and the Inhabitants ap- pear more thirfty than at any time in the past. ‘The main impression gained by Gov- ernor Hunt is that the responsibilities of government are better appreciated. It is wonderful, he says, what appreclation there is now among the people of the tremendous power to make their own laws. Less bitterness is shown in indi- vidual politics. The Governor says the largest cities of the island will shortly float bonds, and are approaching the questions of municipal improvement with intelligence and caution. ““Progress,” says Governor Hunt, “is the best word with which to sum up the isl- and’s condition—progress in education, commerce, agriculture, health and satis- faction.” Farewell Sermon to ‘““Bluecoats.” LONDON, March 15.—The Bishop of London, the Right Rev. Arthur Ingram, will preach a farewell sermon to-morrow to the “picturesque blue-coat boys,” who, after the Easter vacation, will leave the ancient Christ's Hospital in the heart of the city and go to mew quarters in the country, the opening of which King Ed- ward is expected to attend. The ab- sence of the bareheaded, skirted boys in the London streets, where they have been familiar for centuries, will mark one of those many changes which are now so rapidly doing.away with old London. chid b Early Trial for Campbell.

Demand Is Made for In- formation About Trans- port Service. WASHINGTON, March 15.—The House devoted to-day to private pension bills, passing 229 bills and clearing the calen- dar. This is the largest number of pen- sion bills ever passed by the House at one session. Earlier in the ‘day a resolution was adopted calling upon the War Depart- ment for information concerning the Gov- ernment transport service between San Francisco and the Philippines. Late in the day Minor of Wi rising to a question of personal pri denounced a published statement regard- ing the Speaker was not a shadow of truth in the article. ‘When the House met Parker of New Jersey reported back from the Commit- tee on Military Affairs the resolution in- troduced by Richardson, the Democratic leader, a few days ago, calling upon the Secretary of War for the reports of cer- tain army officers who examined into the transport service between San Francisco a substitute be adopted which calls for the facts relative to this transport ser- vice instead of the reports. many cases, freely expressed opinions, which it might be unwise to make public.

Minor followed the reading with a state- ment denour i ly and unqualifiedly false. Never by -act, word, deed or intimation, he said, had the Speaker attempted to change Minor's po- sition relative to the Cuban question. Speaker Henderson added that so far as the article referred to him, the averments made by Minor were absolutely true, as there was not a word or shadow of truth in any statement made in it. Immediateiy following this incident the House, at 3:30 p. m., adjourned. OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Changes Made in the Postal Service and More New Pensions Granted.
