At many places early risers were out to welcome the cars and their crews. The fine weather contributed to the complete enjoyment of the occasion, and as the hours passed the traffic in- creased to phenomenal proportions.

With the exception #f a few of the executive com- mittee, who showed up in the morning, the place was deserted all day. A few discharged employes, who are expecting reinstatement under the terms of agree- ment with the company, lounged about the headquarters and discussed with one another their chances of reappointment. Fortunately ‘there .are only thirty-five employes who were dismissed because of their union affiliations, and ‘these will. be reinstated as soon as a proper investiga- tion of their cases can be made by the CHURCH FOLK -~ MIAKE BATTLE Lively Time Over an Election in Fresno Edfice. FRESNO, April 27.—There was much excitement here to-night in the Armenian Presbyterian Church, and it required the sepvices of four members of the Fresno police force to suppress it. The trouble grew out of the dissatis- faction of a part of the congregation with the pastor, the Rev. George H. Fillan. In the congregation there are twelve ex-min- isters of the gospel, all of whom are as- pirants for the position of pastor, and who are alleged to have stirred up feel- ing against Filian. The occasion of to-night’s trouble was a called meeting for the election of a pastor. The entire congregation, num- bering about 500, was present at the time set for the meeting, at 6:45 o’clock. The Rev. Mr. Wyman of Tulare, head of the church in this district, was here to con- duct the election. Everything went along smoothly enough untii it became noised about that several persons.had-bought stock in the church the day previously, in order to vote at the election. Filian's _friends arose, one after another, to challenge voters, and each time learned that the challenged person was a -stockholder. Filian’s chances began to appear doubt- ful. G. H. Arkelian, one of the deacons of the church, and a supporter of Fillan, arose and said that he was willing to write a check sufficient to entitle every supporter of Fillan to vote, and walt for the money to be repaid. Almost every- body in the house was up in a moment and all tried to talk at the same time. During the babel of voices the secretary of the church shouted above the noise something regarding the finances of the church and a Filizn supporter responded by calling him a liar. Blows were exchanged immediately and then the row commenced In earnest. Men and women alike joined in thé fight, be- laboring each other with thelr fists- and knocking each other about the room. In anticipation of trouble four policemen were on hand, and they, after consider- able trouble, drove the belligerent church members out into the street. But this did not stop the fighting, the Armenians con- tinuing thelr quarrel on the street. Filian, the minister, concluded, when the fracas commenced, that discretion was the better part of valor and disap- I}“red' Nobody was seriously injured. he warring factlons were admitted to the church a few at a time until the elec- tion was completed. The result was a victory for Fillan, with . a majority of forty-one votes. —_— SOCIETY WOMAN HURT BY A RUNAWAY TEAM SAN RAFAEL, April 27.—Mrs. Clinton Jones of San Francisco, who is spending the summer in Ross Valley, had a narrow escape from death to-day in a runaway accident and was serfously injured. Mrs. Jones was out riding in the after- noon. The team became unmanageable and her coachman, E. Collomore, was un- able to control the fractious animals and they ran away. The occupants were thrown out of the trap and Mrs. Jones had her shoulder dislocated. She also sus- tained other injuries. Mrs. Jones is promi- nent in San Francisco soclety and is the wife of Clinton Jones, an insurance man. directors of the company. President Cornelius of the local branch of the Amalgamated Association of Street Railway Employes of Ameriea was un able to leave his home yesterday by rea- son of illness. Cornelius had, a hard ume of It during the strike, and the re- sult of nights spent about the headquar- ters. was a severe cold. He was confined to his bed, but nevertheless he was able to say that no matter what happened to him the carmen’s union would be on deck forever. He expressed delight at the out- come of the strike, and said that its ef- fect would be a powerful stimulus to or- ganized labor for vears to come. WARNS CHINA OF THE CRISI3 Viceroy Yuan Shih-Kai Pleads for Immedi- ate Reforms. TACOMA, Wash., April 27.—The steam- ship Braemar brings news that Viceroy Yuan Shih-Kai is pushing vigorously at Peking for reform. He has urged the Empress Dowager and Emperor to use the strongest measures possible to com- pel the high authorities of the various | provinces to commence the reforms re- peatedly ordered in the Imperial decrees. He frankly told the Empress that the whole empire is dissatisfied with the pres- ent situation and that a bona fide inaug- uration of reform and government en- couragement of mining and other indus- tries would not only better the lot”of the common people but also enable China to pay off her foreign debts and would eventually enrich and strengthen her. He predicted that unless these measures were speedily taken universal rebellion against the present dynasty would com- mence within thirty months. His éarnest manner convinced the Empress of the gravity of the present crisis. She Is re- gcrt;d to have wept and wrung her ands. Viceroy Yuan Shih-Kal has obtained the consent of the throne to establisn a chief arsenal and foundries for the manufac- ture of small arms and artiilery at Techou, near the border of Shantung. The removal was made thither from Tientsin because of the capture of the arsenal in the latter city two years ago by the for- elgners. A secondary arsenal will be maintained at Tientsin. The works at ‘Techou will be on & mammoth scale and their product will supply -the northern armies of China with complete equipment in the way of firearms. COLUMBIA PROMISES BIG SALMON SEASON TFish Now Being Caught Are Very Large and Hatcheries Show Results. ASTORIA, Ore., April 27.—The salmon season, which commenced on April 15, promises to be a most successful though the supply of fish is still Ilimited. The fish being caught this year are very large, and nearly the entire supply is at present sent to the cold storages. The | canneries are operating only on a small iscale. The limited supply of fish in the early part of the season Is due to a re- markable condition of affairs. The opera- tion of fish traps and fish wheels makes it impossible for early fish to reach the spawning waters, with the result that the run of fish is becoming later with each succeeding year. Salmon spawned in April return in that month three or four years later, just as fish spawned in August re- turn in that month. The efforts of the State officlals are now directed to indreasc the supply of early fish, and it is thought the plan of hatching salmon in March and April will have the desired effect. The State hatcheries have done remark- able work on the Columbfa River. Last season the supply of fish was a fallure un- til the great hatchery run of salmon made its appearance in the river. The run last- ed three weeks, during which time the ganneries were blocked. Marked salmon turned out by the hatcheries in previous WITH ALL CAR LINES IN FULL OPERATION THE CITY PRESENTS ITS NORMAL ASPECT > S. W. Huff’s Selection as Manager. Is Popular. The exclusive announcement by The Call yesterday that Slaughter W. Huff, genefal manager of the San Francisco and San Mateo Electric Railway, was to succeed E. P. Vining as general manager of the United Railroads was welcume news to hundreds of the carmen of the ! last-named system, to whom Huff is well known. were questioned yesterday, said that un- der Huff's could depend upon fair and manly treat- ment. During the Vining regime, they declared, their lots were miserable, and they welcomed a change of masters as a veritable boon. The fact that Vining was to be superseded was received by the men with marked approval. The men say they are satisfled with their victory. They assert that so long as the company keeps its agreement they will abide by theirs. When grievances arise they will be adjudicated by a com- mittee of the union acting in conjunc- tion with a like committee of the direc- tors of the company. This is a condi- tion that has never before presented ft- self in their case, and the men think it will be fruitful of great good, both for the company and themselves. The directors of tne United Railroads wore their accustomed smiles yesterday. All expreésed themselves ~as satisfied with the outcome. Mayor Schmitz could not be seen yesterday. He spent the greater part of the day at the house of = friend in an effort to recuperate. The busy days passed by him during last week told upon him greatly, and it will be scme days before he will be thoroughly him- self again. Meanwhile the public is rejoicing with the union carmen over their victory, but all express the hope that the last strike of the kind has been seen here. vears were taken daily, proving conclu- sively that the run was due to hatchery work. MOTHER-IN-LAW DENIES STORY OF A SHOOTING SAN JOSE, April 27.—Marshall Maxwell was treated at the Receiving Hospital for & bullet wound in the breast, which, while serfous, is probably not fatal. Maxwell says he shot himself acciden- tally, but his mother-in-law, Mrs. Miller, says he either tried to shoot himself or was shot by his wife, as she found them struggling {n the yard when she was at- tracted by the shot, though she knows of arrel.

Lack cf Proper Steamship Connection Proves a Big Drawback. WASHINGTON, April 27.—Frederick | Emery, chief of the bureau of foreign | commerce, made public to-day another | extract from the volume entitled “‘Com- mercial Relations of the United States | During 1901,” which is now in press. It deals with the trade of the United States with South America last year. American coal linds a steady and ever- increasing market in brazil, but our ex- port trade to Brazil, it is sald. never will reach its proper development so long as our merchanaise has to seek foreign rot- toms. It is pointed out that if a line of modern steamships were operated be- tween New York and Brazil there would be no lack of return freights in coftee, rubter and like products. American hard- ware, also, It is stated, has earned a rep- utation for quality and finish which places it beyond competition. 1t is a notable fact that many young Brazillans are coming to this country to complete their careers of learning, where- as until recent year: the. better class from that couniry were sent to Por- tugal,” France or Germany to acquire their literary, professional or scientific training. Now English is being taught in_some of the higher schools of Brazil. In the Argentine republic the Ameri- can goods making the greatest headway are tools and implements, cotfons, hats, shoes and speciaities. A banker in Ro- sario recently reported that for the half year ended June 30, 191, the increase of transactions between his house and the United States had been 131 per cent, and he understood that other banks had sim- ilar experience. But while we are mate- rially increasing the aggregate of our trade with Argentina, here, also the ab- sence of direct steamship connection is a _handicap. In Chile, where lumbering is the chief industry in its southern provinces, prac- ticaily all of the wood is cut by mills of American construction. All of the ma- chinery used in the production of flour also comes from the United States. On account of the political disturbances in Colombia imports from the United States have increased only slightly. The imports from all other countries have re- mained stationary. United States trade with Eucador shows | a_gratifying increase, due to purchases for the Guayaquil-Quito Rallroad, better and quicker communication, lower freight | rates. and the coming of American com- | mercial travelers. “Our trade will stead- | ily advance,” it is stated, “but an isth- mian canal alone can give us the van- tage ground we should occupy.” ENORMOUS CIRCULATION OF THE CURRENCY REPORT More Than One Million Copies Are Being Mailed to People Inter- ested in Finanece. WASHINGTON, April 27.—The majority report ofi the House banking and cur- rency bill is being circulated to an extent probably without precedent. Chairman Fowler of the committee reporting the till when asked to-day as to the extent to which the report was being mailed said: I am sending the report to 1,026,818 persons, classified as follows: 135,159 clergymen, 126,- 564 physicians, 83,687 lawyers, 95,000 teachers, principals -and professors, 16,225 banks and | bankers, 21,000 newspapers and periodicals, 108,401 manufacturers, 32,600 jobbers and 410, 000 farmers. The reform of our filnances and currency is, to my mind, the most Important question uow | before the ‘American peoble; especially are those who use their credit or the borrowers of money, the true buflders of our nation, deeply and materially interested. Convinced as I am of this fact, I deem it my first duty to do everything in my power to bring to the at- tention of the people full information about a subject which I regard as the most vital Question of our time. This enormous circulation is being accom- plished by contract covering the foregoing ad- dresses. FLAMES IN A FACTORY RENDER HUNDREDS IDLE GLENNS FALLS, N.

The fire started in the clothirg store of Webb Brothers, on Glenn street, and thence spread to the | large plant of the Joseph Fowler Shirt and { Collar Company, occupying the upper story of nearly the entire block. Fanned by a high wind, the flames next commu- nicated to the neighboring buildings. Tha | destruction of the Fowler planc | throws nearly 800 operatives out of em- ployment and 200 more will be out of work temporarily.
