The Lumber Clerks’ Union, which is affiliated with the Building Trades Council, has refused to accede to the demands of the longshoremen and in| consequence the latter were ordered out on strike this morning to compel the employers to force their men into the longshoremen’s organization. Busi- ness Agent' N. T. Nelson says that the in the right and that its members are prepared to stay out until the Lum- | ber Clerks’ Union is brought to terms.

ALAMEDA, Feb. Burglars and thieves continue active here, despite the efforts of the police to prevent their illegal work, and reports of robberies nd housebreaking are of daily and n tly record.

In most of these thefts the work has been done while the mem- bers of the household were absent.

She was spoken on that date by the steamer Lady Mildred fifty miles east of Cape Otway. The windjammer was under easy sail, and Captain Wil- llams of the Celtic Queen reported that { all hands were suffering from fever and ague contracted in the Central Ameri- can port and for the time being were unable to handle the sails or otherwise assist in the navigation of the vessel. The Lady Mildred's offer of assistance | was refused, but Captain Willilams asked that his plight be reported. It is! now more than a month since the Celtic | Queen was spoken, and no word has been received of her arrival at Wal- laroo. e S A Sailor Discovers Leak. Norwegian bark Rokeby Hall, which put in here February 2 in distress, is ready to resume her voyaging. Since her arrival marine surveyors and ship carpenters have searched in vain to locate the fous leak which let in enough water to keep the pumps constantly busy. It was declded the veseel for a furthe have been done had not one of the liscovered that the calking had fallen lumber ports and left open for the inpouring of the green was the l¢ and a handful ghtly home has put the 1l into seaworthy condition The crew uite a chink Thi, river, keby H of oakum leaking F again. > Diver Finds One Blade Gone. A diver made an examination yesterday of the steamehip Sierra’s propeller and that one blade had been snapped off close to the hub. So far as could be seen this is the full extent of the damage sustained by the liner in her encounter with whatever sub- marine obstacle she struck on Sunday night The Sierra was taken to Hunters Point yes- terday afternoon and this morning. with the hull clear of water, a careful survey will | be made, a rew propeller put on and what- ever else may be found amiss will be repaired. 1t is thought that clinging to hull wheel may be found some clew as to the nature of the obstacle that crossed the liner's path. Whether log, derelict or whale, however, the amage done to the steamer eems to have been slight, et Will Be a Total Loss. The last report received from the ship Henry B. Hyde, which went ashore February 11 at Dam Neck, ten miles south of Cape Henry, was ‘that the vessel was burying herself in the sand and appeared to be a hopeless wreck, The passing of the Henry B. Hyde removes another familiar sailing vessel from the fleet baving a home port at San Francisco. The Hyde was built in 1884 at Bath, Me., and had all the grace of hull and spar for which the American buflt ship has long been fa- mous. She was owned by the California Shipping Company, of which W. B. Mighells is president. This company carries its own ‘| insurance and no vessels are maintained in Letter condition than those flying either the private flag of W. B. Mighells or the bunting sign of the California Shipping Company. When wrecked the Henry B. Hyde was on her way from New York to Baltimore to load coal for this port. g - Will Tow to Antwerp. The British #hip Matterhorn, which left here September 1% for Antwerp and reached Dover a few days ago, damaged through having col- lided with the steamship Lake Michigan, has been surveved and will be towed to her d tination. Although extensive the damage all above the water line. . Dinner on the Astral. A dinner was given on board the Standard Oil Company's ship Astral last Saturday in honer of that vessel's being the first ship to dock @t the new San Pablo wharf built and controlled by the Rockefeller interests.

L W | representatives of commercial organi- | the ithe Sacramento Valley Development { Francisco. | He promised to appoint a committee | to co-operate with the | San Francisco secretaries mentioned in ! cial bodies came from | Committee to | of $30,000 that it was found necessary | to raise; | tables; | St. Louis included Sacramento, Sola- | and probably Shasta. 000D PROMISE San Francisco and Interior Hold Conference Which Has a Very Favorable Outcome B e MONEY NEEDED FOR SHOW All Commereial Bodies Will Help to Raise Sum Wanted to Provide for an Exhibit —— Representatives of the executive com- mittee of the Sacramento Valley De-| velopment Association secured a prom- ise yesterday from presiaents and other | zations in this city of support to raise the money needed to adequately install the collective exhibit of the Sacramento Valley counties at St. Louis. What the committee wanted was to get San Francisco to contribute the sum of $6000 to have the Sacramento Valley counties put in shape to place a great exhibit, to publish 100,000 coples of a Sacra- mento Valley book descriptive of the eniire valley, to have representatives at St. Louis for every one of the Sac- ramento Valley counties and to meet #uch other expenses as may arise and are not already provided for. It did not need much argument to convince those that were present as | representatives of the San Francisco commercial organizations that to ad- vertise the Sacramento Valley properly | at St. Louis was advantageous to San Francisco. Action indicating this was taken very soon after the meeting was fairly in motion. The first actual subscription to aid Sacramento Valley came from Arthur R. Briggs, who agreed to put| up $25 personally. He said that lhe; California State Board of Trade, of which he is the manager, could not do- | nate any money as a body, but that it | would help all that it could. Before | the meeting adjourned it was voted to; have a committee of the secretaries of | the commercial organizations, who are | Messrs. Fletcher of the State Board of | Trade, King of the Merchants’ Asso- | ciation, Friedlandef of the Merchants’ | Exchange, Scott of the Chamber of Commerce, Bancroft of the Manufac- | turers’ and Producers’ Association and | Smith of the San Franctsco Board of | Trade, go around with a committee from the Sacramento Valley to call | upon San Francisco merchants to get subscriptions. This is to be done at once. As soon as convenient the boards of directors of the commercial organiza- tions of the city will be called together to take such action as they may see fit. GREEN GIVES FACTS. General W. S. Green, president of Association, said that he expected that | the co-operation of the commercial bodies of the city would result in rais- ing me money. It had been con- sidered that $6000 was the share of San The Sacramento Valley be- ! gan only thirty-five miles from San| Francisco and was therefore in the door vard of San Francisco. The commercial advantage of having the Sacramento | Valley known to the world as well as| were Los Angeles and the countles In | the south of the State was apparent and San Francisco would appreciate it. ‘What Los Angeles was to the southern countles San Francisco ought to be to the counties in this part of the State. | { | committee of the foregoing. The initial motion to have action taken by the San Francisco commer- Andrea Sbar- boro, president of the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Association. An in- vitation was extended by Mr. Sbarboro on behalf of the Caiifornia Promotion use the committes's rooms as headquarters in the work to be undertaken on behalf of the vai- ley. Mr. Sbarbore said that he would request of Mr. Jennings, the executive officer of the promotion committee, to lend assistance. Remarks were made by A. A. Watkins, who presided; G. W. McNear, General W. 8. Green, Secretary Beard of the Sacramento Valley Development Association and J. G. Martine, commissioner for the | city of Sacramento to the St. Louis Exposition. EXHIBIT IS EXTENSIVE. Some of the facts that wére stated were already of common knowledge. It was set forth by the speakers from the valley that the city of Sacramento had subscribed one-third of the fund that the valley show sur- passed any that had ever been a tempted of a similar kind, the bulk being in processed fruits and vege- that the counties that would make the collective valley show at no, Placer, Yolo, Yuba, Sutter, Colu- sa, Butte, Glenn, Tehama, El Dorado Those present were W. S. Green of Colusa, Secretary Board, C. F. Foster of Tehama Caunty, J. G. Martine of Sacramento, John Reith Jr. of Wood- land, R. M. Green of Oroville, H. P. Stabler of Yuba City, State Senator Diggs of Marysville, Fred M. Buck of Vacaville and, from the commercial bodies of this city, Messrs. A. A .Wat- kins, Arthur R. Briggs, A. Sharboro, Rufus P.

Charles Zinkand, proprietor of the Cafe Zinkand, must live up to his agreement to purchase from Helen M. Pattegson and others a block of land in Anselmo Valley. Judge Seawell so decided yesterday, giving judgment for the plaintiff in the suit brought by Mrs. Patterson against the restaurant man to enforce a contract. In May of last year Zinkand agreed to purchase from the Patterson woman and others a block of land in Anselmo Valley for $25,000. He paid $1000 down and then refused to complete the pur- chase, giving the excuse that he had found that the title to the property was defective. —————— Prisoners Perish in Burning Jail.
