MANT HANDLER ARE. INPORTED Southern Pacific Claims to Have Nearly a Full Crew Working in Freight Yards STRIKERS REMAIN FIRM No Attempts at Violence Are Made, but Pickets Induce Many Reeruits to Desert —_— An open meeting of the Interior Freight Handlers’ and Warehouse- men's Union was held at their regualar headquarters in the Alcazar building Jast night and the question of the strike mow in progress between the union and the Southern Pacific Com- pany was discussed. After the open meeting an executive gession was held and varibus members { the organization and some of the m the Labor Council ad- meeting, explaining to the n some of the minor issues which some of the members were not entirely clear. The check clerks had been invited to attend the meeting, but only four of them were present. They are not or- entire body held ganized, but the a meeting at noon yesterday and by a vote of 31 to 18 decided not to join in the strike. Another clerks will be heid to-day, at which the question will again be considered. It is stated that since the strike the wages of the check clerks have been advanced from $5 to $10 a month, with a promise that the increase will be permanent. Reports were recejved from the pick- ets stating that freight was piled to the rooofs of all the sheds and that the ut- most confusion prevailed, It stated that three trains of cars with local freight were lying unloaded in the 3 that in the West Oakland v more trains were blocking tracks because there was not room rack them in the yards in this city. y new men arrived last night, but it is said by the union that nearly one- | half of them were induced by the pick- ©1% not to go to work. All of the speakers at the meeting strongly advised the men against the least act of violence and the advice met with hearty responses from the men. The union holds that there are only about 150 working in the sheds and at with such a force of inexperienced ht handlers it will be utterly im- sible to manage the traffic. NO DISORDER OCCURS. At the freight yards of the Southern c, Fourth and Townsend streets, night the only in- that a strike was on were ups of men loitering in the vi- scussing the sitnation. Eight n and two mounted policemen, mmand of Sergeant Mahoney, olled the vicinity of the freight but their services were mnot d into requisition. About 2 o'clock in the afternoon Captain of Police Spillane went to the freight depot and reviewed the situation. As he was leaving he stated that he had no fear that there would be any disorder.

COMPANY SECURING MEN. Apparently - the rallroad company was doing fairly well vesterday in the matter of moving freight. The con- gestion that marked the first day of the sirike was visibly lessened. Only shed tributed, seemed unduly depot brought from three to thirty-five récruits to the men who are handling freight in lfeu of the strikers. At 5 o'clock vesterday afternoon J. C. Wil- | freight | der, superintendent of the yards, stated that he had about 250 men at work, which was about three- fourths of his regular crew. He thought that to-day there would be a sufficient number of men at work to handle the freight, even in the most crowded pe- riods. The new men are fed and bedded in the freight sheds and have no neces- sity to venture out among the strikers. They have been recruited from various places, as far south as Bakersfield and as far north as Portland. Most of them look as thokgh they were farmers. There aré yarious reports regarding the compensation they have been promised. Onme is that they are to re- cefve 50 cents-an hour, with board and lodging and transportation each way from the place from which they came. Another is that they are getting $2 o) a day flat, with board and a bonus of 2% cents for each day they work. The railroad officials refuse to state what inducements have been offereds to the new men. The check clerks, of whom there are sbout fifty, are the most pampered — o ADVERTISEMENTS.

VICTOR, Colo., June 7.—Two hemp ropes knotted with a noose for hanging were lying on a table in the room where the Cripple Creek district Mine Owners’ Association held a heated dis- cussion to-day behind closed doors. The members were greatly incensed by the discovery of what they regarded as the existence of a plot in the Victor Miners’ Union for the wholesale assas- [ sination of mine owners and miners. This evidence was a bundle of forty | marked photographs found by Lieu- | tenant Keegan in the Union Hall. On the back of some of the photographs was the name of James Cochrane, sec- graphs were group | employed in the mines. portant was a group of the night shift jof the Vindicator.

The plot was arranged and a special train was standing on the Florence and Cripple Creek tracks to carry a body of men who were ready in Cripple Creek, awaiting a signal. Alfred Miller, former Marshal Michael O'Connell and Thomas Christianson were regarded as ringleaders in the | rioting of yesterday and they were | marked for lynching on that account. The failure to capture Christianson was the only reason the plan was not car- ried out. The other two are still in v and awaiting the decision of the citizens' vigilance committee as to their fate. — { FRIENDS OF FOREST IN SUPREME SESSION Some (‘hnn‘es:"l‘m;—l\'ew Officers to Be Elected This Morning—Re- ception and Ball. The Supreme Lodge of the Friends | of the Forest met in eighth annual | session yesterday in Mission Opera | Hall. The session was called to order iby Supreme President Mrs. Lillie A. | Dygert. All the gupreme officers, | past officers and delegates from the | several lodges of the order were pres- ent. The entire morning session was tak- en up in hearing the report of the su- preme president, which shows that ‘durlng the last twelve months there has been a building up of the lodges. A very creditable increase was made in that line, as well as in finance. The | report shows that the order is in bet- ter condition than it has been at any {ume since its institution. The order | has been fortunate during the last | year in having but two deaths. | At the afternoon session there were !a few changes in the Jaws, one to the | effect that the supreme chaplain shall be elected before the supreme secre- | tary and treasurer instead of after these {officers. Another was that no dele- gate who has not become a past pres- ident of a subordinate lodge shall be eligible to the office of supreme pres- ident. The others were minor changes. It was decided that the election for | officers shall be held this morning im- mediately after the reading of the minutes. Last evening there was a reception | in the social hall of the opera-house to | the supreme officers and delegates, | which was followed by a ball given the local lodges and under the direc- tion of the supreme officers, who act- ed as the committee of arrangements. of dances, and the many that attend- ed had a very enjoyable evening. —_———————— Eats Pills and Dies. George Spingula, a six-year-ol@ boy residing at 1226 Kearny street, ate some pills that he found .and died in great agony a few minutes later. He was playing with little Joe Faricello in the rear of a house at 1222 Kearny street, and found a bottle containing some red pills. He thought he had found some candy and ate several, then proffered | some to his friend. The other bov re- fused to eat them. Within a few min- utes little George was writhing in pain. Dr. Burke was ‘hurriedly Ssummoned from Montgomery avenue and Green street, but the boy was dead when he arrived.-- The physician said that the lad . had been poisoned, presumably with strychnine. —————— Postoffice Changes. The following changes in. his de- partment were. announced yesterday by Postmaster Fisk: Sophie Wer- theimer and G. L. Sullivan, appointed from the civil service list as clerks at $600 a year; resignations of Kate Dickson, money order and registry de- partment, and J. H. Paulson, clerk, accepted; Thomas P.

Stable Proprietor and Two Non-Union ‘ Men Given Hack Drivers’ Privileges. At a meeting of the Board of Po- lice Commissioners held last evening three permits for hack drivers were granted. J. H. Marlin and Alexander Rice, both non-union men, were given licenses, and James H. Mitchell, pro- prietor of the Stanford Stables, was accorded the right to handle the reins, Eight applications in all were pre- sented. Three of the applicants failed to respond to their names. Two more were found to be unqualified and their requests were rejected. The Hackmen's Union did not make any protest, but each applieant was put through a form of examination similar to that adopted at the last meeting of the board. Commissioner Drinkhouse, who acted as chairman, asked the men reasonable questions, but to have answered all of Commis- sioner Hutton’s queriés concerning small and outlaying thoroughfares a man might be classed as a walking directory.

Ludwig Busse, proprietor of Teu~ tonia Hall, on Howard street, was de- prived of his liquor license by the Po~ lice Commissioners last night. Busse, when charges of permitting minors on his premises where liquor was served were brought against him, made as- sertions that Commissioner Reagan had trumped up the charge because he refused to insure his property with the Commissioner. When the case was called last week Reagan produced positive testimony to prove thnt’ Busse's assertions were false, that he' did not even solicit the insurance and when it came to an issue the saloon- man falled to produce any testimony in support of his contention. The Civil Service Commissioners addressed the Police Board to the ef- fect that medical examinations for po- lice officers who desire promotion will not te held hereafter, as the aspirants, if physically capable to remain in the department in’the lower rank, must certainly be for the higher, the duties, so far as police matters are concerned, bemg the same. DETECTIVES LOOKING FOR ST. FRANCIS GUEST Young Parker’s Dishonored Checks Lead to a Request From the Hotel for His Arrest. A. D. Parker, until recently a guest at the St. Francis Hotel, is being sought for by the police. He is a voung man, said to be well connected in the East and registered at the hotel from Chicago. Shortly after his ar- rival he ingratiated himself into the confidence of the hotel management through the medium of several local men of prominence and then pro- ceeded to cash his checks at the hotel office for small amounts. A few days ago he’left the hotel and later the checks were réturned from the Eastern banks on which they were drawn with the information that no funds were deposited there to Parker’'s credit. Yesterday the management of the St. Francis placed the matter in thé hands of the police and an officer was detailed to round up the young m4n,” who has been spending much of his time in the tenderloin district. Up to a late hour last night, however, the police had failed to find him, but they were hot on his trail and expect to land him in jail to-day. —e—————— { CHURCH FOLK PLAN FOR , THEIR ANNUAL OUTING Members of Star of the Sea Parish Will Make Merry at Shell Mound Park on June 15.

They were at ¥ischer’s Theater to see “U. 8.,” and the comedians of the company took advantage of their presence to hurl happy allusions at them which amused the audience and’| the theater party in particular. When« ever one of the party received a pal- pable hit the other members joined in the “joshing.” The theater party was compesed of the following members of the club: i - Edward H. Hamilton, W.

AN e VICTOR, Colo,, June 7.—Two more names were added to-dav to the list of those killed by the Independence dy- namiting. They are George S. Hender- son and Fred Buckley. It is believed that the bodies of several others were blown to atonis and the remains are in the mass of flesh and bones at the bot- tom of the hole made by the tremen- dous charge of dynamite. ' Apart from a few small fights in con- nection with the rounding up and ar- resting of union miners no -outbreak has occurred in this district to-day. Two local militia companies and a small’ army of’ armed deputies under Sheriff Edward Bell are in full control of the camp. Though there has been no turbulence to-day, there is an un- dercurrent of feeling which bodes ill. Secretary Clarence C. Hamlin of the Mine Owners’' Association to-day de- clared that 200 prisoners now held in the armory in Victor will be run over the hills and warned never to return. There i8 a minority element that want to hang N. W. O’Connell, former Mar- shal of Victor, suspended and under arrest; Alfred Miller, charged with having started the riot which resulted in the killing of Roxie McGee at the mass meeting in Victor yesterday aft- ernoon and several other leaders. No hanging will take place, however, in all probability unless resistance is offered by word or action of the prisoners. It would require but little to result in a wholesale hanging. Virgil King, a union leader, and fifteen others arrested in Cripple Creek to-day, were taken to Victor and deported. The Victor Record was.censored by a special committee appointed by the Sheriff before publication was per- mitted to-day. i Several boys, playing in the neigh- borhood of the hole made by the ex- plosion at Independence, to-day found a portion of a cheaply made British bulldog revolver. The weapon con- tained one empty shell. The bloodhounds jn charge of Hugo Pfalmer of Trinidad to-day traced the assassin who killed the Findlay min- ers to a mile beyond Clyde station, a distance of twelve miles. There the scent was completely lost. It is be- lieved by the detectlves working on the case that the assassin took a bug- gy at that place and proceeded along the old stage road to Colorado Springs. The Coroner’s jury visited the scene of the explosion to-day, after which an adjournment was taken until 2 o’clock to-morrow afternoon, when the taking of evidence will begin. — NIGHT OF KEEN ANXIETY. Excited Throngs of People Crowd Streets of Victor. VICTOR, Ceolo., June 7.—Excitement ran at a High Ditch last night, although no sensational incidents oecurred after the riot of the afternoon. From dark until dawn the principal streets were almost as crowded as they were during the day by thousands of men and wo- men, who had assembled from all parts of the camp in the belief that darkness would invite further bloodshed. Their expectations, however, proved to be groundless. Aside from the occasional arrest of a union agitator by the military author- ities or the Sheriff’s deputies and the otcasional shriek of a Krag-Jorgensen from some dark, secluded spot in the foothills the night passed quietly. All night, however, the streets of the city and the footpaths leading to and from the mines were watched closely by the troops and the deputies and every few minutes a hard-faced miner was brought in and placed in the armory, which is under heavy military guard. Mayor French said yesterday that in his opinion no mare troops are needed here. “Company L, now on duty, consists of sixty men,” he said, “and the num- ber can be increased to 100 if neces- sary. Besides these soldiers we have a force of armed deputies. The civil authorities have perfect mastery of the situation. Should the military turn over their prisoners to the civil author- ities there will be no lynching.” “The Western Federation of Miners will be banigshed from the district,” declare the mine owners. “It has not been proved that the dynamiting was done by the federa- tion,” retort union men; “we have a right to remain here.” Both sides express a determination to fight to the bitter end. Business is practically suspended in Vietor and conditions in Cripple Creek are Iit- tle, if any, better. All saloons are closed by order of the authorities. Many merchants have closed their stores and all who can are doubling or trebling their insurance. . By order of Mayor French the Fire Department has stretched a line of hose from a firé plug at the corner of Victor avenue, under Third street, to the armory for the purpose of dis- ersing the crowd without resorting 0.the use of arms. There are now 200 union miners in the bullpen and others are being rounded up. +* THE DAY’S DEAD. + Santa Clara Ploneer Dies. SAN JOSE, June 7.—George Anderson Smith, a ploneer resident of the south- ern end of the county, died at his home at Madrone on Sunday.

Bell, accompanied by a detail of staff officers, is on his way to Cripple Creek bearing Acting Gov- ernor Haggott's proclamation of mar- tial law for that district. He has in- structions to use his judgment as to the need for issuing the proclamation, and, if he decides that conditions war- rant it, to place the gold camp under the reign of the military for the sec- ond time since the strike of the miners began last August. General Bell traveled on a regular Colorado and Southern train from Den- ver to Colorado Springs. At the latter place the adjutant general and his es- cort entered a special train and pro- ceeded to Cripple Creek. The framing of the proclamation was the result of an- appeal -from Sheriff Bell of Teller County for troops, declaring that a state of insurrection existed in the Cripple Creek district. The appeal 52 “You are herebv advised that there is in existence in Teller County, Col- orado, a riot, and that mobs of men are acting together with intent to com- mit felonies and that-violence is being offered and attempted and threatened as well upon the persons of said county as upon property, and that organized mobs are by force and violence break- ing the laws of the State of Colorado and are threatening to continue to break the laws of the State of Col- orado, and the civil authorities of said county are unable to suppress the saia tumults and riot and are unable to disperse saild mobs, and are unable to prevent the threatened violence to per- sons and to property; that numerous citizens of said county have request- ed me to demand such military protec- tion as may be necessary to prevent violation of the law. —_— OUTING FOR BENEFIT OF YOUTHS' DIRECTORY Proceeds of Picnic at Schuetzen Park ‘Will Be Devoted to Fund of the Institution. A dircular letter by the Most Rev. Archbishop Montgomery has been read in all the Catholic churches of the city urging the people of the va- rious parishes to come to the assist- ance of the Youths' Directory and to bear in mind particularly that the ex- cursion to Schuetzen Park next Sat- urday is for the aid of the charitable work of the directory. Archbishop Montgomery is deeply interested in the work being done by the church for poor children and the directory’'s record for the last year, in which it has rescued gnd found homes and oc- cupations for more than 700 destitute boys, commends it to enthusiastic pop- ular favor. Rev. Father Morgan reports that nearly 5000 tickets have already been disposed of and that orders are rap- idly coming in. Twenty-four athletic contests for prizes will be held at Schuetzen Park and 200 gate prizes will be given. The programme . of amusements in general will be com- plete and will contribute great en- joyment. One of the features will be an Irish jig and reel contest for the championship of the Pacific Coast, and the best Irish dancers in the State will take part.
