Baker Swears to Charge Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, March 2. With a pistol in his only hand, T. C. Lane, a maimed brakeman of the Southern Pacific Company, came out of a lively melee in the office of Division the railroad at the Oakiand mole Mon- d4y afternoon and to-day he was ar- rested on a charge preferred against him by A. W. Baker, an assistant su- perintendent under Palmer, who Laue says attempted to throw him out of the office. The accused man was ar- rested this afternoon, but was released on bonds about 10 o’clock to-night. There was a dispute over the amount of wages he was to get and Lane went mer in regard to the matter. He did not find Palmer, but found Baker. Lane says that his complaint met with scant courtesy from Baker and that he was very shortly ordered out of the office. He refused to go and says that he was attacked by Baker and that when he showed flght a second man came to Baker's assistance. With but one arm and attacked by two men he says that he drew his pistol and made them stand back while he made his retreat. Lane says that he is the vietim of duplicity and ingratitude. When he met with the injury that cost him his means of a livelihood he says that hc | was promised a good job on the road in another capacity if he would bring no action for damages against the com- pany. He says that after he had re- covered he was sent down to Tracy, where he has been doing work | that at the regular rate paid for such work should have brought him ‘about $80. Instead of this he was given $3). Baker, when seen this evening, re- fused to talk. Lane is well known in West Oakland and has always been considered a man of good character and habits. He lives with his wife and family at 1032 Chester treet and those of his acquaintances who know him well are surprised at seeing him get into any such trouble.

Several Firms Refuse to Sign New Agreement, and | All May Be Called Out e Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, March 2. The butchers employed in the mar- kets of Kohler Bros. and G. A. Rothamel went on strike this morning. The butchers’ union has put the mar- kets on the unfair list and pickets have | been posted in front of them to enforce the boycott. The cause of the trouble is the refusal of the proprietors to agree to the new schedule of wages presented by the union, which calls for a $2-a-week advance in wages. The new schedule was presented to Kohler Bros., who are the proprietors of the Buffalo Market, at Twenty - second street and San Pablo avenue, and the Excelsior Market, at Twenty - fourth street and Telegraph avenue, and to G. A. Rothamel, who runs the Pacific Market, at Twentieth street and Tele- graph avenue, yesterday afternoon by Business Agent T. E. McGovern of the butchers’ union, and both firms re- fused to sign the agreement. McGovern at once called a meeting of the executive committee of the union. and the men were ordered to quit work this morning. Five men were called out at Kohler Bros'. mar- ket and three at Rothamel's market. The old schedule of wages for jour- neymen butchers is $16 a week. It is said that several other firms have re- fused to sign the agreement, and it is feared that a general strike may be ordered to enforce the demands of the union. —_———— TRAIN SEVERS MAN'S HEAD FROM HIS BODY Card in Pocket Shows He Was a Plumber and His Name Was J.
