The war will be made on the Iron League, the agsociation of employers in the structural iron industry. Not only work on -all big new buildings in this city, but many, large contracts through- out the country will be affected. The emergency committee of the Bulld- ing Trades Employers’ Assoclation to-day appointed a special committee to resort to | measures of aggression and défense in dealing with the striking housesmiths. The committee will decide on a date for a meeting at which a general lockout | probably will be ordered. Additional strikes against the mason | builders who have subjet fireproofing con- ! tracts were ordered to-day. The strikes | ordered are in disobedience of resolutions adopted by the last two national conven- tions of the Journeymen Bricklayers' and Masons' International Union prohibiting bricklayers from refusing to work for any subcontractor who receives fireproofing contracts.

The answer | was read just before the convention | authority to issue such a supplemental | call was serfously questioned, and advised the convention to get legal advice on the matter. The reply will be considered by a | special committee of the convention. Delegates of the Long:horemen’s Union and the Seamen's Uni'wn, international bodies which have been guarreling as to | the jurisdiction over certain kinds of | workmen for some time, occupled most of | the day in discussions. Yt was decided to | have the two unions arpoint an arbitra- | tion committec and settjs the matter be- tween themselves. The dispute betwee&n the Brewery Workmen's Union and tfe Engineers’ and Firemen's unions was sfttled by the en- gineers and firemen bdng permitted to | join their respective unigns without detri. | ment to them as union fmen. | There has been conf'derable political | talk during the past weck, and from what | | | | | is said In the conventlo\ it now looks as | though there will be biit two changes in the officers this year. 'Chese will be the retirement of Fifth Vice Preslient Kidd and Eighth Vice President Spencer. It is possible the election of officers will be reached to-merrow. Notwithstanding the fact that on Mon- day it was decided to I:0ld the usual an- nugl banauet, it was dnnounced by the | entertainment committce to-day that the | decision had been revorsed, and for the | first time in the histoy of the federa- | tlon the convention w.il adjourn finally without a bnscuet. President Gompers’ “eport was again before the convention ‘at this morning's session, and the foliowing_ resolutions were unanimously adojited: Recommend- ing the exclusion of Chinese, Japanese and Korean labor frov: this country and its possessions: prohibiting the employ- ment of child labor; jnstructing the exec- utive council to select nne labor organiza- tion against which an injunction has been granted, employ competefit legal talent and carry the case. to the United States Supreme Court to test the cqnstitutional- ity of the Injunction !aws new in force; pledging support to the striking printers and recommending the calling of a meet- ing of the International Women's Labor League to ad&n differences sald to exist in that beneffcial auxiliary of the feder- ation.

Views were ex- several members which in- dicated a sharp division as far as the situation was developed. There is fur-| ther indication that a majority of the committee will favor a measure giving | the Interstate Commerce Commission | more power, which means in some form | control over rates. It seems to be quite well understood that three Republicans| and enough Democrats favor such legis- lation to insure a rate-making bill being reported. Informal discussions among the Re- publican members of the committee show | that apprehension is felt that if a bill| should be reported by Republicans and | Democrats against the wish of a ma-| jority of the Republican members, it would create a division in the party that will work disaster in the future. Those Republicans who favor rate-making leg- islation assert that the way to avoid a rupture is to support a conservative in line with the recommenda- tions of the President. Some of the op- power over rates exvressed the hope af- ter the adjournment of the meeting to- day that when the views of the Presi- dent have been set forth an agreement can be reached by the Republicans upon a bill which can be reported and passed without much frigtion. { At future meetings, beginning to-mor- row, each member of the committee will Le given an opportunity to state his views in regular order. During the discussion to-day, Senator Foraker expressed the opinion that it would be sufficient to meet the present situation if the Inter- should be autherized to take cognizance of com- plaints, bring suits to enforce the laws in the United States courts and if ali District Attorneys be empowered to Senator Dolliver said he believed that the movement for control of rates had progressed to. the extent that legislation short of giving some tribunal of the Government such power would not be satisfactory. Senator Newlands, after the committee adjourned to-day, said: “I have no doubt that a measure for railroad regulatien -providing fqr the prompt determination of freight rates where disputes arise between shippers and communities on the one hand and the carriers on the other will be passed during the coming session. But I look for prolonged consideration both in the committee and the Senate and the pub- lic will probably grow impatient over the delay. “Individually, I believe in comprehen- sive action on the whole question of transportation by means of a national in- corporation act, covering the-incorpora- tion of new companies, as well as the consolidation of old ones, guarding striet- ly against overcapitalization, preference: rebates and discriminations and compell- ing an automatic but gradual reduction in rates as the total business of the country increases by a limitation of divi- dends.” e ————————— San Jose Loses Pioueer Woman.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 22.—Mrs. Frieda | Shultz, wife of an electrician in _the | employ of the Pacific Electric Com- pany of this city, was shot in the back of the head with a double-barreled shotgun and instantly killed this even- ing at her home near First street and Wellington avenue, as the result of the careless handling of the loaded weapon by her little brother and sister: Mrs. Shultz was engaged in cleaning the house, and as she was moving the ar- ticles about the children were playing with them. The shotgun was picked up by one of them and the two began a tussle for its possession. In some manner both barrels of the gun were discharged, the contents striking Mrs. Shultz in the back of the head and she féll to the floor, dying instantly.

Twenty-five of them were caught in nets by firemen as they were dropped from a third-story winflow by a teacher. Rena Drouin, years old, was taken to a bospital, suffering from the ef- fects of fright and inhaling smoke, but it is thought that she will recover. All the pupils, except those on the third floor, who escaped by means of the net, m hed out of the building in good order when the alarm was given. Sister Mary, one of the teachers, and her twenty-five pupils, who were on the third floor, could not get down the stairs on account of the dense smoke. The teacher led the children yto the windows, beneath which the fremen stretched a net. Under the sister’s di- rection the girls climbed out over ti® sill and were assisted to drop and were caught safely in the apparatus held by th: firemen. After the last child had been cared for Sister Mary herself reached the street by means of a ladder. The fire was caused by an overheated furnace. The damage to the building was slight. —_——————— Unable te Find Bedy of Fireman. REDONDO, Nov. —Efforts to re- cover the body of Fireman C. C.
