On the question of wages there has never been any trouble, both sides having been willing from the first to submit that question to arbitration. Sandals With Bow wear.

BUDAPEST, Nov. 21.—In the lower house of the Diet to-day Premier Tisza, replying to the speech of the Austrian Premier, Baron von Koerber, in the Reichsrath yesterday, said that the Austro-Hungarian ausgleich did not exist. The Austrian law differed in many points from the Hungarian aus- gleich law, but the common affairs of the halves of the monarch were man- aged on the basis of the provisions of | the Austrian law. Count Tisza declared that an exclusively Hungarian law modifying the common affairs had in any case the force of law. The asser- tion that Hungary desired to prejudice the principle of parity between the two states was a ‘“‘misrepresentation of facts.” D —— ‘Will Cut Wages Ten Per Cent.

Special Dispatch to The Call. = | SANTA ROSA, Nov. 21.—As a result | of the storm which has been ragirg in this vicinity for three days past, the Southern Pacific evening passengsr train came near being ditched yester- | day on its return to this city. The tracks near Schellville were un- der-water and the flood water stretched | out for a great distance on either side.y | Engineer George B. Clark ran into the | | water and suddenly his engine lurched | and seemed to settle. He applied the | air quickly, but the rails being wet the | | locomotive slid along until it ran on to | | solid ground and righted itself. consternation occurred among the pas- | sengers in the coaches when they fol- lowed the engine into the depression. | No one was injured. Numerous landslides and washouts are reported, the most serious one be- irg near Occidental. Fully an acre of | earth fell from a hill there during the rain yesterday morning and blocked traffic. Mail Carrier Frank Smith did not reach this city until noon to-day, | whereas his schedule calls for his ar- rival here Friday evening at 6 o'clock. The landslides and washouts were re- sponsible for his delay. ‘When he discovered the slide near Occidental Smith essayed to reach this | city by another road, but found it in worse condition than the first one. Reaching the laguna west of this city this morning he was unable to cross | that stream and was compelled to re- turn and come around through Sepas- topol. He departed on his arrival here at once for Occidental, his nchedula[ calling for a round trip daily. It is not certain that he will be able to make the journey, as other slides may have | taken place. Creeks and streams all over the coun- ty are rurning brimful and doing con- siderable damage. A large hulkhead in Banta Rosa Creek has been torn loose by the force of the water. The water was 8o high in the vicinity of the Napa line of the Southern Pacific Railroad that it was necessary to annul two trains on that branch to-day. ETNA, Nov. 21.—A big storm in the Salmon River mountains flooded Scott Valley, Siskiyou County. The United States mail coach from Etna to Yreka | tipped over in Kidder Creek and the stage driver and one passenger nar- rowly escaped drowning. The mail and express were recovered. It has been raining since Noyember 5. | REDDING, Nov. 21.—This region is experiencing a wonderful storm. Rain has fallen steadily for seventy-two hours. The precipitation for that pe- riod measures eight and a half inches. The stage from Bieber, Lassen County, due here last evening, has not yet ar- rived. The stage from Weaverville, Trinity County, managed to get In last night, although late, by selecting .a new route to escape the storm. The rainfall for the season is fourteen inches. The passenger train from Portland to San Francisco, due here at 10:30 in the morning, did not arrive until noon. It 1s learped that for an hour it was held by a landslide two miles north of Kes- wick. NAPA, Nov. 21.—A heavy rain fell and Friday night and the Napa River is out of its banks at present. The water was over the railroad track near Yountville yesterday. 7The rain- | fall for twenty-four hours up to 7 o'clock this morning was 1.45. This makes a total for the season to date of Great | 7.05 inches. At the same date last year 10.64 inches h: fallen. SAN RAFA Nov. 21.—The rainfall in Marin County has been the heaviest in years, yet the storm has not been nearly as severe upon pedestrians and imals as former ones. For the last three days the rainfall in San Rafael averaged three inche: other parts of the county ® The rainfall throughout the State was much lighter yesterday than on Fri- day and last evening the indications were that a general clearing up was close at d. The rivers in the north- ern half California were somewhat higher than normal, but there is no danger of an overflow anywhere at present. Professor McAdie of the Weather Bureau stated last night that the storm was going slowly east. No rain fell in the south. The average rainfall in the State yesterday was about a quarter of an inen. During the entire storm 2.80 inches of rain fell in San Francisco. The weather Is grad- ually becoming warmer and the winds are very light. Favors Ceding Isle of Pines.
