The Brewers' Protective Association has refused the demand of the men for an increase of wages and has notified them that if they do not report for work this-morn- ing at 7 o’clock non-union men will be employed in the strikers’ places. This was embodied in a note addressed to the Brewery Workers’ Union. The strike of the workers i8 caused by the refusal of the Brewers’ Associa- tion to increase the pay of the men from $20 to $22 a week and grant them 75 cents for overtime. There were sev- eral minor points, among them the hir- ing of apprentices, and both sides agreed on everything but the wage schedule. Each side showed apparent willing- ness to settle its differences, but acted as if jealous of the other. The Brew- ers’ Association placed a proposition Le- fore the unlon that they should resort to arbitration to settle their differ- ences. The brewers suggested that a man from e: side and the two selected third, so that the committee, with should be chosen should choose a the understanding | that all should abide by the decision. The brewers agreed that if the decision should be against them they would pay | the increased wages from the date of the beginning of the strike. The work- ers seemed chary of this proposition on the ground that the time of settle- ment would be prolonged and by osition was rejected, The association had already reached an agreement with the Beer Drivers’ Union and the Bottlers’ Union to give them $2 more a week and 50 cents over- time. The drivers authorized their committee to sign such an agreement, but on hearing of the action of the striking workers they reconsidered their action. In the meantime bottlers and drivers communicated with the international union at Cincin- nati to ask whether they shall join the season of four weeks. striking workers. Up to a late hour last night no answer had been receiv- ed.

SAN JOS July 19.—Gladys Martin, a young woman well ‘known in San Francisco, shot and tried to Kill her- self this morning after a quarrel with her companion, James McCormick, night bartender at the Crystal Bar sa- loon, on San Fernando street. The bul- let entered her left breast, inflicting a painful but not serious wound. ‘When McCormick closed the saloon at 1 o’clock this morning the woman, who is also known as Gladys McCor- mick, accompanied him to their rooms in the Nevada House, on South Second street. After enjoying a lunch the cou- | ple quarreled, the woman accusing McCormick of losing his affection for .her. Running to a trunk, she opened it and getting a revolver she placed | the muzzle of the weapon to her breast and pulled the trigger. The bullet struck a bone and imbedded itself in the left side, over the ribs. Gladys Martin, it is said by the po- lice here, gained considerable notoriety in San Francisco twe years ago by shooting at an Italian interpreter in a courtroom there.

SAN RAFAEL, July 19.—A happy little romance was abruptly ended to- day when Judge Sewell, presiding for Judge Lennon, annulled the marriage | of Lee Gilpin and Margaret Kelly, both of Oakland. Gilpin and Miss Kelly were married despite parental objec- tion on June 26, in this city. Mrs. W.°B. Gilpin, mother of the groom, came to San Rafael a few days ago and brought suit to have the mar- riage annulled on the ground that her son was only 19 years of age when he secured the license. Mrs. Gilpin ap- peared before Judge Sewell to-day and upon her testimony the marriage was annulled. ——— Construction Train Is Wrecked.

The negroes were recruited in' | Bast St. Louis and other points farther | south. ‘When the train stopped near the low- er end of the Swift plant, a few pick-| | ets were about and a large number of strikers quickly gathered and watched i the men march into the house. The | strike leaders declare that they had in- formation that these men were com- 7 ing and were hoping to intercept them |and persuade them to return, but the thirty special police officers guarded the negroes so closely that they could not get near to them. The leaders say also that the number of negroes im- ported is greatly exaggerated by the Swifts. Another eonsignment of thirteen ne- | groes arrived by trolley car from Oma- | ha this afternoon, assigned to the Armour plant. When the car stopped opposite the Armour plant a crowd of 500 persons had gathered and the po- lice were powerless to prevent the | negroes being spirited away. Only one | of the gang got into the works. The packers this morning notified the | committeemen that if police protection | were sufficient they could handle 1500 cattle and 6000 hogs daily. A special meeting of the Livestock Exchange men was accordingly called and a comi- | mittee a inted to wait upon the Fire | and Police Commissioners. This evening the committee met the' cummissioners, who decided to make an effort to supply further protection. It is reported here that the mechani- cal workers in Kansas City and Sioux | | City will not go out to-morrow, if or-| dered, as they are satisfied with their present wages. In Omaha the new scale was adopted for the firemen quite recently, but the best information 1s that if the strike is ordered the men | will walk out to help the general move- | ment. I LR CRISIS WILL COME TO-DAY. CHICAGO, July 19.—The crisis in the stockyards strike will, come to- morrow afternoon. The allied trades unions in the stockyards, which are certain to become involved in the con- ‘ troversy if it be not soon settled, held a conference this afternoon and at its conclusion a letter (was sent to the | packers asking for fjolm conference between representatives of the strik-| ers, the packers and the allied trades, to see if a settlement could not be! reached. To-night there was nobody | who would say that the packers would | agree to the conference and it is im- possible to say with certainty that the ' | meeting will be held. | Arthur Meeker, manager of the Ar-| mour Company, speaking for the oth-| er packers as well as for his own es- | tablishment, said that he would send a reply to the letter in the morning. He declined to say what the nature of the reply would be. | Bread and ice are to be distributed | !to needy families in the stockyards! | district. In this way the packers are | | to help the wives and children of the | ! strikers. This plan was announced by | Arlhur Evans, attorney for Swift & , in the following statement: i 'n having come to the notice of the | ‘packen that the families of their for- ‘mer employes, now on strike, are in| need of bread and ice, Superintendent | | Crosby of the stockyards station of | the Chicago Board of Charities was | mmediately notified that a carload of ce and 1000 loaves of bread were at this disposal for distribution daily among those in need of help, with the understanding that further assistance of the same character would pe ren- dered if necessary.” Weary of the turmoil and hardships encountered while struggling for a liv- ing in the face of strikes and lockouts, | sixty-two familles of the strikers left | Chicago this afternoon to return to | Austria-Hungary. There they will re- | ceive less pay, they say, but their em- | ployment will be more steady and de- } | void of peril. | —_— MAYOR IS AUTOCRATIC. ST. PAUL, July 19.—With the excep- tion of the repudiation by the Butchers’ Union officifls of nominal control of the blockade at the Swift packing plant, there was little change in the situation at South St. Paul to-day. The women stenogranhers and several of the leading officials of the Swift Pack- ing Company were the only persons al- lowed to pass the picket lines, and all efforts to recruit the force of men who have been in the plant for several days were apparently successfully resisted. The retirement of the union officials was evidently brought about to head off the threatened injunction proceed- ings against them. The move, how- ever, had little effect on the vigilance of the pickets and.the persistence of the blockading forces, except that it less conservative. General M. D. Flower, president of the Unton Stockyards Company, was | peremptorily ordered to leave the vi- cinity of the Swift plant to-day by | Mayor Lyttle of South St. Paul | Flower had angered the Mayor by | remonstrating on account of the lack of | deputies, whereupon the Mayor resent- ed Flower's “hot-headed interference,” and ordered him out of town. Flower did not leave. One of the strikers was arrested for suggesting that the crowd lynch Charles Fitch, former Mayor of St. Paul and now president of the South St. Paul Commercial Club. At a conference held to-night be- tween the Governor and a committee of strikers, it is said, the strikers prom- ised to declare the blockade off to- MOrrow morning. made their attitude more defilant and DIES IN SHAFT 0F UNION MINE Pl fgahe Employe Enters It to Learn Extent of Damage Caused by Fire and Is Suffocated GAS FILLS THE TUNNEL Three Other Men Are Over- come, but Are Rescued and Resuscitated by Physicians Special Dispatel to The Call. | VIRGINIA, Nev, July 19.—It was de- cided to make an sttempt this after- noon to examine the Union shaft through the drain tunnel on the 160-foot level, and Joseph| McDonald, Jack Richards, William | | Byrne, Sol. Martin and George Wil- liams were assigned to the task. The | men had proceeded but a short dis- tance into the shaft when McDonald | uttered a cry of distress and Foreman Jones and others rushed to his assist- ance. A strong odor of gas told too plainly what had happened. McDon- ald was hurried out Into the air, but life was extinct. Richards, Byrne and Martin next succumbed fo the deadly gas and were dragged into the air with great difficulty and at great risk to the lives of those who effected their rescue. Physicians were quickly summoned and they adopted heroic measures to revive the men. After a long struggle the asphyxiated men showed signs of | life and soon afterward regained con- | sciousness. It was thought that no danger lurk- ed in the tunnel and the men went into it confidently. The gas was generated | by the fire of last Thursday. The death of McDonald is particularly sad.
