Christ is 29 years of age and, accord- ing to the story told Sheriff Frank Bar- | by Joseph Naegele of 421 North Hill street, Los Angeles, his hephew came to his home a féew days after the fire at San Francisco and was received with open arms. Three weaeks later he! eloped with His dunt by marriage. Not only this, but Naegele says that they | his plano for $100 a&nad sold | some of the Houseiiold goods to get money enough to pay their fare up here. A warrant was sworh out for their arrest on a charge of obtaining money tnder false preétenses, and Sheriff | White of Los Angeles and Naegele came | to Oakland and spent several days heré | trying to lecate the pair. -In this, | however, they ware unsuccessful, and they returned a few. diays ago.

Christ says that hée went to the hotel this morning and then learned that his companion, fearing that he had deserted her, had gone back to her home. Z & According to the proprietor of the Merritt Hotel, Mrs. Naegele was a 8ti- | isly daressed woman, apparently ten | vears the senior of her companion, ang| the only remari that the couple caused during theif stay was How such a wothi- {an came to be married to so young | a man. How she will make her peace with her husband i$ a matter that interests Christ very little. He says that she will take care of herself and will give her husband something He won't forget for giving them all the nbtoriety he has.

Sailofs in the coastwise trade are at prosent paid from §43 to $30 a month, according to the ports bétween which they are running. The higher rate is paid on vessels running to what are Knowh a8 oper ports, where the work of loading and discharging fs accom- panied by more risk and inconvenience than at ports which enjoy shelter. With overtime pay the average wage of a coastwise sailor is about 375 a month. In addition te this he is provided with board and lodging. Shortly before April 13 the Seamen’s Unlon demanded an ifcreas of $5 a month. The marine firemen, the cooks and walters also asked for | inereased -remuneration. The Steam- | ship Assoctation of San Francisco. made | up of the owners of the vessels, mostly steam schiooners In the lumber trade, affected by these demands, were di posed to grant the request. Then came the earthquake and the big fire, which wipad out all of the business part ot the city but the water front. NO ADVANCE IN RATES. For a few days following the fire shipping was paralyzed. On all vessels in port the crews were kept on board and fed, and on April 25 the Stéamship Assoclation of San Francisco passed a resolution to the effect that in view of the sudden change in conditions a con- templated- advance in freight rates should be called off, but that wages, overtime agreemeénts and all othér cont- ditions relating to the crews should be undisturbed. The Sailors’ Union at the same time passed a resolution agreeing to charge | no overtime on relief work. and gener- {ally expressing the union's desire to do | its share in lightening the load of trou- ble which had fallen on the community. Things ran along smoathly for a month. | Andrew Furuseth, head of the union, returnéd and a few days ago resur- rected the ante-comflagration demand for increased pay. Thls demand was referréd by the Stefmship Association ot San Francisco to the United Steam- ship and Transportation Association, of which organization the steamship assoclation is an auxiliary. An execu- tive committée commisting of three members 6f the United Steamship and Transportation Assoclation and five members of the Steamship Association of Sdan Francisco was appointed to con- sider the matter. This committeq met yesterday afternoon In the office of Gegrge D. Gray & Co. and decided that under existing conditio it would net be right to accede to the demands. To'A. E. Hammona was delegated th task of giving public expressiom of th commiittee's views. sald Mr. Hammond, felt that the union J was trying to use the calamity which {'had fallen on the city as & leévar for compelling a yielding to their demands. The sailors were taking advantage, he said, of the city’s urgent need, and as a matter of public pelicy the committes deemed it Inadvisable to take any stép which would add one cent to the cost of material for rebullding the eity. Théy would recommend tnat the des mand for increased pay be denied. VESSELS LAID UP. crews of about half a dosen schooners have been paid off and 4sels lald up pending a settlement of the dispute. UnleSs an agreenient is reached it Is likely that not enly some seventy-seven steam schooners will be laid up. but that the entire steamship business of the port will bé suspended indednitely. Theéreé will be another meéting today. Andrew Furuseth said yesterday that | the’ unfons at the various coast ports [decided on April 18 that the increased wage scale should go into effect May 1. Owing to the calamity to San Fran- cisco, he continued, the matter was his home at Abiléne, Kan., today, and held in abeyance pending further ne- apprised of the resolution introdueed | gotiations with the owners. Furuseth in the Senate committee by Sendtor,says he pointed out to the employers Jamd “% Bailey for the expulsion of the Kan- san. 3 To the Assoclated Press Seénator Burton said he did not caré to make any statement at this time. s REPORT THEFTS.
