Barry of the ExXpress Drivers’ Union; Adolphus Pfeil, a striking express driver, and Bernard Mulligan president of the Express Drivers’ Union, must answer the | questions put to them in the hearing be- fore Master in Chancery Sherman. In addition Judge Kohlsaat ordered that thirty-seven men be called in to show rea- son why they should not be punished for contempt for having violated the or- der of the court by iInterféring with the wagons of the express companies. The questions which the men have been ordered to answer relate chiefly to their | knowledge of certain proceedings at the commencement of the strike, it being the object of the attorneys for the plaintiffs in the injunction proceedings to show that they possessed knowledge of the strike, and, in g large measure, controlled its movement and progress. i, et AN UNION LEADERS INDICTED. Charged With Manslaughter in Connec- tion With Late Tragedy. CHICAGO, May 23.—The Grand Jury to-day indicted twelve men in connec- tion with the death of Charles Carl- strom, the member of the Carriage- makers’ Unfon who died as the result of the beating he received at the hands of thugs hired by the officials of the union, according to their own state- ments. The indicted men are George Miller, formerly president of the union; Henry Neuman, secretary; Charles J. | Casey, business agent; six members of the executive comimttee and Charles | Gillhooley, Marcus Looney and Edward Felley, the three men who were hired by the officers of the union. The indictments charge manslaugh- ter and conspiracy to commit great bodily injury, the autopsy having shown that the death of Carlstrom was due directly to pneumonia. The phy- sicians declared that the disease proba- bly resulted from the injuries he re- celved, but it was still the direct cause of death and the men could not, there- fore, be charged with murder. ———— NASHVILLE, Tenn., May train No. 1 southbound, which e last night for New Orleans over the Louis- ville and Nashville Raflroad, was partially wrecked to-day at the bridge over Rutherford Creek, near Columbia, Tenn.

WHO IN HIS OPPOSITION TO THE PRO- COUNCIL HAS SUMMARILY DISMISSED STEEL POSTAL CAR PROOF AGAINST FIRE Maximum of Strength and Safety Reached in Its Construction. Special Dispatch to. The Call. NEW YORK, May 28.—“It is a thing wholly unique in rallway construction, and, I personally believe, reaches the maximum of strength and safety in a postal car,” was the comment of Victor J. Bradley, superintendent of the rail- way mall service, after an Inspection of the new Erie Rallway postal car at Jer- sey City to-day. The car was bullt from designs pro- vided by the railway management and embodied suggestions as to what a per- fect mall car should be, both for com- fort and safety. It, goes somewhat be- yond the exacting specifications of the Government as to railway postal cars, alike as to strength, utility and comfort. These improvements have met with the approval of the postal officials here and in Weshington. The exterior of the car is entirely of steel. Its interlor fittings, sorting tables, letter racks and all other necessary woodwork are of fire- prooofed wood. It | is. therefore, practically uninflammable. It is sixty-five feet in length, weighs 100,700 pounds and is mounted on standard six wheel trucks. Its under framing is said by builders to be the strongest and heaviest “ever rolled, making it more nearly proof against telescoping than any car ever conmstructed.

Special Dispatch to The Call FOLSOM, N. M., May 2.—John Mec- Minaman, a ranchman living near Val- ley, N. M., was struck by lightning and knocked senseless last evening and was not able to see to-day. He was standing in the door of his house when the boit struck and was waiting for Rolla New- kirk, a boy, to hand him an oil coat for use in the storm. A half-witted fellow who had been stopping at the ranch was behind McMinaman. Seeing the flash, followed by the fall of the ranchman, young Newkirk be-~. lieved the demented fellow had shot the rancher. Newkirk tore through a screen door and ran. In the darkness he ran Into a barbed wire fence, which threw him back, the barbs tearing his clothing. The scared boy plunged into the fence again, going through it. He saw the dim outlines of a tall cactus, which he mis- took for the demented man, and ran two miles to the Hardesiy ranch, where he reported the supposed murder. Hardesly seized a rifle, told the boy to alarm the neighbors and. hastened to the McMinaman ranch. Learning the facts, and that the rancher had been | stunned only, he started back home to head off the neighbors hasten {ing to the scene. He was mis- taken for the supposed murderer, am- bushed and ordered to throw up his | hands. He had no trouble In eéstablishing | his identity and narrowly escaped being shot.

The arrests were made at the instance of Sheriff J. F. Bradley of Es- meralda County, Nev.,, who holds war- rants charging them with embeszzle- ment. Both men were returned to the City Prison d the Goldfield authori- tles communicated with. ‘When first taken into custody Young and Burton were not disposed to discuss the bank faflure. They said they were about to return to Goldfield, and their rallroad tickets were in their possession. It was Burton’s intention to apply for a receiver immediately upon his arrival home and to straighten out the affairs of the bank as far as possible. The pris- tution are sufficlent to cover its liabilities soon. To the action of Cashier J.

Many of them were depositors in the Goldfield Bank. They took their money with them, as they needed it in making locations and purchasing property. In this manner about $25,000 was drawn out in a few days and our funds began to run at low tide. It can be easily understood that a bank in that section of the country does not carry any large amount of cash. There are no secure vaults and the region is too isolated. YOUNG WAS HONEST. “Matters looked serious last week and Mr. Young came to this city to ne- gotiate .a loan with the First National Bank of San Francisco.

The sale was conditional and Young will make no effort to shirk the responsibility of the debts. He is a man of considerable wealth and will see | that creditors will be paid dollar for dol- {lar.

I sim- ply represent Mr. Young in his personal affairs and do not understand how I have been dragged into this matter. The two notes referred to in the dispatches were never cashed and were given by mining companies in payment for legal services. It may be that I am charged because 1 | overdrew my account to the extent of | $1100. This can readily be made good, as it was an error by Boals, and the money should have been charged to other per- gons.

Mrs. Burton, who is a helpless inva- 1id, denies absolutely that Burton had any connection with the bank, except as a depositor. The report of the com- mittee flatly contradicts her. Deposit- ors were found to-day who placed ap- proximately $500 in the bank last Sat- urday.

A year ago A. G. Munn turned over the | management of the hotel to Jackson and | | kept only a general supervision over his work. The place prospered, but a few months ago there was a decided falling off in the receipts. Then a guest left the hotel and the books showed that he owed a large amount for Board and Munn wrote to his mother in the East. The | money was sent and was received by Jackson, but no credit was made upon the books. A second letter was sent and the reply fell into Munn's hands and disclosed to him that Jackson, his manager, had re- ceived the money and pocketed it. |LAST OF THE BOUNTY SWINDLERS CAUGHT | |Gang Alleged to Have Rob- | bed Western States Out | of Big Sums. | DENVER, May 23.—With the arrest in this city to-day of James Rumsby and his | father-in-law, James Riggles, police of- ficlals believe they have captured the last of an alleged gang of bounty swindlers, | who are sald to have operated in Utah, Nevada and Wyoming, and through whom the State of Utah alone has been swindled out of more than $§100,000.

DXCLUSION LW 5 THREATENE Interests in the North and Sonth at Work to Secure Modification of the Aet BOYCOTT CAUSES ALARM Feeling Exists That Student and Merchant Class Should Be Treated More Liberally Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING, WASHINGTON, May 2.—Pacific Coast interests will have to hustle to prevent interference with the Chinese exclusion act when Congress meets. There is a movement among certain commercial elements m the North and South that is gradually forming itself into a demand for Congressional quali- fication of the present exclusion laws. The South is thoroughly frightened at the threat of a boycott on American goods by the Chinese, as the greater part of the shipments to China are cotton. Thers is also a decided feeling of sympathy for the so-called “student and merchant’ classes of Chinese among Northern repre- sentatives who reflect the bellef of their constituents that China is being harshly deait with by the United States. It was learned to-day that specisl re- ports on the subject have been ordered by the Treasury Department. The Gov- ernment has taken the matter seriously enough to make it the subject of specfal study. Secretary Metcalf of the Department of Commerce and Labor hes made a re- quesi upon the State Department, with which it has complied, that the Mexican Government be asked to assist the Ameri- can immigration inspectors on the Texas border In their efforts to prevent the wholesale smuggling of Chinese across from Mexico into the United States. The Secretary bases his request upon a report from T. F. Schmucher, inspector in charge at El Paso, Tex. This shows that in Juarez, Mexico, across the river from El Paso, there are three Chinese firms or companies engaged in this smuggling. ——————— OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST New Postmaster Appointed and Pat- ents Issued to Residents ot the Golden State.
