A trip to Alaska was neces- sary. Before this agreement was reached Attorney N. Soderberg, father of Walter H. Soderberg, was retained as the attorney of the Swedish Cove- nant. He conferred with Dr. Johnson and it was settled that the hearing of testimony before the arbitration board should take place in Chicago and not in Alaska. The hearing was begun early in February last and tes- timony was taken up to March 19. A t volume of evidence accumulated. urviving Eskimo boy went on and what he had to say There were three ar- bitrators—David F. Lane, who was selected by Hultberg; R. A. Pence of Pence & Carpenter of Chicago, repre- senting Johnson, and Judge Hiram F P Gilbert of Chicago, who was elected by the other arbitrators to sit with them, according to the agreement reached in Alaska. ‘The decision Iis without appeal, so says Mr. Soder- berg, and the property now belongs without doubt to the Swedish Evan- gelical Covenant. Associated with N. Soderberg as counsel for the covenant were Frank F. Quinn. of Peoria, Ill., and Harris Williams of Chicago. e e ——— Petitions in Insolvency. Petitions in insolvency were filed yesterday in the United States District Court as follows: Mario Lorenzini & Co., liquor dealers, San Francisco, lia- bilities $15,401, assets $5928; the prin- cipal creditors are Swiss-American Bank, San Francisco, $2878; L. Bal- dino & Co., Italy, $4485; Pletro Rigot & Sons, Italy, $1266. N. P. Kooser, broker, San Francisco, liabilities $26,. 251, no assets. The principal creditors are J. W.

Anna Held and her show girls will | not monopolize the gorgeous costum- j ery in the ‘Columbia Theater this ev: i ing, for there is llkely to be both va- i riety of bright coloring and richness of material in the garments displayed by the occupants of the upper boxes, all of which have been reserved for his | imperial Highness, Prince qu Lun of China, his suite, Chow Tszhi, first sec- retary of the Chinese legation at Washington, and the officials of the local Chinese consulate. The bright- eéss of the stage pictures will be en- anced by the brilliance in the boxes. It is appropriate that Anna He!d's engagement at the Columbia should close so auspiciously, for in the en- tire history of that playhouse there has been no attraction that gave such unqualified satisfaction to all classes of theater goers. To the management its artistic suctess assures the clever comedienne a rousing reception when she again comes to San Francisco. —_————— Danish Society Gives Ball.

Hope of Averting a Strike | COMPANY REMAINS FIRM [Ne Reply Made to Carmen’s ‘ Overtures—Conference Is | to Be Continued To-Day ey In a final effort to secure the conces- sions sought without recourse to a ! strike, the officers of the Carmen’s Un- |ion, accompanied by W, D. Mahon, | president of the Amalgamated Associa- | tion of Street and Electric Railway | Employes, yesterday conferred with the ; officials of the United Railroads. The | session lasted more than two hours, but | no material results were attained. | Those that met in the offices of the | United Railroads were: Manager Chap- | man, two directors of the company and ; David Young, representing Brown Bros., financiers of the road, on the one D. Mahon, President Cor- | side, ana W. { nelius ana Secretary Bowling, appear- | for the Carmen’s Union, on the | ing other. The conference opened in Man- | | ager Chapman’s office shortly after 2 | o'clock. President Mahon took up sepa- | rately the ¢ argued the justice of each. He stated | that the carmen sought an amicable adjustment of the points at issue, and | asked that th. United Railroads give the demands of the men further con- | sideration,. asserting that the union was ready to meet the company half- | | way. j COMPANY STANDS FIRM. | At the conclusion of Mr. Mahon's ar- gument, it is authoritatively stated, the company declined to make a reply, but it is said agreed to again meet the rep- resentatives of the Carmen's Union on Monday to hear whatever further they had ‘to say. The attitude of the company, is taken | to mean that the reply of Manager | Chapman to the recent lengthy state- ment issued by the Carmen’s Union is the final declaration of the attitude of the United Railroads versy and that no concessions will be made the carmen. That a strike is now even more probable than hitherto *is | generally the belief of those in close touch awith the on,, despi the hopeful feel; press . the | officers’ of the ‘Carmen’s Union. The conference came to a close ‘at 4:30 o'clock. David Young then pr ceeded with Mr. Mahon to the apart- | ments of the latter in the Grand Ho- tel, where a brief conference was held, | the nature of which.was not made pub- | Me. HOPES FOR SETTLEMENT. “We are very hopeful of adjusting the | difficulty peaceably,” said Mr. Mahon | last evening. “'At the conference to-day | we presented the justice of the con- | cessions asked by the carmen, and were accorded a very pleasant reception by the officials of the United Railroads. The' conference was adjourned until Monday, when further consideration of | the difficulties will be had. Beyond | that there is nothing of importance to | divulge.” | ““Are you hopeful of an amicable set- tlement?” was asked. “Yes, we are,” replied the interna- tional president. “It is my belief that both sides are anxious to get together in the matter and avold further com- plications—-at least that is the purpose of the carmen, and I am sure the offi- cials of the United Railroads are dis- posed toward peace. As the situation | now stands, there will be nothing done | by either side until Monday.” Manager Chapman declined to dis- cuss the conference, stating that there was nothing the company cared to make public. Sillogaliy WAITERS GIVE RECEPTION. Large Crowd Attends Opening of New Turk-Street Quarters. To find standing and moving accom- modations for over 1000-. persons where 6500 would be a crowd was the quandry that presented itself to the committee having the arrangements for the housewarming reception given by the Waiters' Union at its new quar- ters on Turk street last night. The rooms on both floors were handsomely decorated for the occasion by a pro- fusion of handsome bunting. Pots containing live plants were tastefully set in positions along the hallways and around the rooms, which lent a charming effect to the surroundings. In opening the evening’s entertain- ment President George B. Benham of the Labor Council made a short ad- dress of welcome to the invited guests, after which dancing was one of the features of the evenimg’'s entertain- ment for such as could manage to squeeze themselves into waltzing po- sitions in the large dining-room. Light refreshments were served by willing hands tg all. Those who were present will long remember the housewarming given by Local No. 30. A strike of the Bakers' Union threatens unless the master bakers agree to the new schedule about to be presented by the union, which will be ! offered on or before the first of next | month. The proposed schedule calls for an increase of $2 a week over the present |rate. This measure is objectionable to | the master bakers and it is thought | they will resist the demand. Should this occur there will be a shortage of bread in the homes of such of the people as depend on- the bakers’ wagons for their daily supply.

SHOWNIN THE UPPER HALF OF THE ILLUSTRATION, ES- TABLISHED A NEW COAST RECORD IN THIS EVENT YESTERDAY IN THE IN ¢ DUNN, WHO IS .ALSO SHOWN HEREWITH, WON TWO GREAT RACES. B e . DAY — W. i — The cardinal colors of Stanford Uni- versity y waved in triumph yesterday on the athletic field at Palo Alto in the twelfth intercollegiate meet with the University of California. For ten years the best the Stanford men could do was to tle the wearers of the blue and gold. On the other occasions the score, with but few exceptions, was.a’' top- heavy one. Stanford turned the tables last year, winning by a score’of 64 to 54. They improved upon this yester-- day by rolling up a total of 69 points to their opponents’ 53. In the fourfeen events the .brawny athletes from Stanford finished first eleven times, while ‘Berkeley * could place but three winners over the tape. Dunn of Stanford wen the 220 and 440 yard dashes. Holman, the Stanford captain, accounted for the half mile and mile runs, while Lanagan proved the cleverest of the timber: toppers, taking both the hurdle évents cleverly. Dole performed up to expectations in the pole vault, establishing a new coast record of 11 feet 8% inches. 0. E. Hyde, another Stanford man, ralsed Plaw’s former.shotput record'of 42 feet 8% inchés to 45 feet 6% inches. It was announced that this was ‘an American intercollegiate record. This is possibly an error, as the latest list of records credits F. Béck of Yale with a put of 46 feet, not 44 feet 8% Inches. as the programme announced. The University of ~California was strong in second and third place win- ners and had a slight lead in points until the broad jump wag reached. Stanford, took all three places in this event and assumed the lead in com- petiticn for points. Berkeley won the relay, but the Stanford team increased its lead by taking the hammer throw and‘the pole vault. Berkeley started. well, Abadie repeat- ing his victory of last year in the “hun- dred,” which he won in 10 seconds. He barely ' breasted .the tape in front of his ‘team mate, Snedigar. The Berke- ley men showed the greater endurance in-the' trying two-mile run, the three contestants to finish the distance wear- ing the blue and gold colors. Hackley established a new coast record in this. CINDER PATH IS HEAVY. ‘The hammer throwers are nat up to the class of Plaw, the record holder.

The track was slightly heavy, owing to some showers during the morning, otherwise a number of. new. marks would surely have been established in; the running events, especially in ti mile. Referee John Elliott and the other officials performed their duties acceptably and there was no drag in the programme. . More than 2000 spec- tators filled the stands and cheered on their representatives to mighty deeds. The officials were: Referee, John Elliott; timers, Colonel Edwards, Dr. Angel, T.- A.
