Van Bergerni, a former pianeer of this city, ! who for many years had been living in Germany. Mr. Van Bergen is well remembered by the old-timers. He came around the Horn in his own ship with his father in {1849 and settled in San Francisco. Fore- seeing a great future for the village, he and a friend started in the liquor | business on Washington street under the firm name of Schaefer & Van Ber- gen. Later Van Bergen conducted the business alone. He was also interested | in_the old Bay Sugar Refinery. Mr. Van Bergen established the liquor house now under the name of N. Van Bergen & Co. Originglly it was con- ducted under his own name, but later | he sold out to his brother, and the! house is still running under the broth- er's name. E In 1863 Mr. Van Bergen's health was impaired by a sunstroke while he was | in the mento Valley, and he went | to Germany. Since then he has spent much of his time abroad. He made | his last trip from this city to Germany | in 1591 | Mr. Van Bergen was 86 years of age. A widow and seven children survive | him. One son, Henry, resides in this| city, another in w.

CAUSE OF SUIT Swain Company Seeks In-! junction Against the Acts of Union Representatives COURT ISSUES ORDER| Members of Organization to| Abandon Boycott Pending Hearing of Firm’s Action | BT T The F. A. Swain Company was boy- cetted on October 3 by the Bakery | lana Confectionery Workers' Interna- | tional Union, Local No. 24, and yester- | | day; resenting the attempts of the or- | ganization to impede its business and intimidate its employes, the-firm ap- plied to the Superior Court for an in- Junction. Judge Hebbard issued a | temporary order restraining the union | men from continuing the acts com- | plained of pending the trial of the case. Swain's bakery is at 209 Post street. On October 2, it is alleged, represen- | tatives of the defendant union, accom- | panied by a committee from the union | | of Bmlesmen of Bakery Goods. called | | on the management and demanded the | discharge of three delivery drivers, | 1 who had been expelled from the sales- | men's organization. The three men | | were giving perfectly-satisfactory ser- | | vice and the firm declined to comply. | | Next day the boycott was declared and | the unton men were ordered, to strike. | Since then, it is alleged, uhion rep- | | resentatives and pickets have congre- | | gated at the place of business and have scught to force the non-union em-! ployes to quit their employment by | threats of bodily harm. One of the | phrases attributed to - them is: | “If you do not quit this job we will | | beat your brains out.” Besides way- | laying non-union men, the pickets are charged with frightening customers | and having already damaged the ! plaintiff's business to the amount of | | $500. | —_—————————— | Prices Are High at Fairbanks. | | SEATTLE, Dec. 7.—A special to the | Post-Intelligencer from Valdes states | that George M.
