Western Operators Are Not Satisfied With Work in the East TIEUP THREATENED Men May Be Calted Out in Chicago or New York Today A serious crisis has been reached in the telegraphers’ strike. The un- ” L | dertow of discontent’ has gathered strength and yesterday broke the banks of reserve. It has been. deter- mined that unless a settlement of the strike is effected by tomorrow satis- factory to the members who are out on strike the executive officers will be asked to take drastic action. This means that a general strike may be declared. The request will be in the nature of a demand, for the men feel that they have the approval of Presi- dent Small as well as the ind sement st the meribership the commercial telegraphers’ union throughout the country.. Thé statement is madé that if the national executive board should at- tempt to force @ settlement displeasing to the strikers, President Small will call out the Chicago employes as the first move in the exténsion of the strike zone. 3 Cattle King Joe Nass of Sanger Wins Bet and Hand of Widow Makes Good His Boast as to His Skill as a Speedy Wooer % SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL FRESNO, July 14.-—Joe Nass, a cattle king of Sanger, 15 miles east of Fresno, and Mrs. Augusta Steln were married today by Justice of the Peace Walton of Sanger after a uniquée courtship. | Incidentally Nass won a large sum of money to boot. Nass had no thought of marrying a week ago. He was rich and a bachelor and had the reputation of being a wo- man hater. He had no soclal aspira- tions until last Sunday.

John C. Moore, who with Thomas Smith of Los Angeles and other prospectors has completed a trip to the ore hearing country, sald that rich specimens were found on ‘the surface. . Many mining men of Tonopah have gone to the new flelds and large areas have been staked out, in many cases on the snow. Travel in that section is hazardous, owing to the rugged coun- try, the deep snow and the danger from snow slides. Dog teams have to be utilized in many localities.” 3 ‘While no shafts have been sunk, rich specimens of various minerals have been found on the surface. It is al- leged that there is a mountain of al- most pure iron and copper in that sec- tion, while lead and zinc have been found in encouraging quantities. One hundred claims have been located al- ready. _ BURNING SHIP TORPEDOED ture of their discussion. Commissioner Neill made no visits yesterday, but sald he thought a settlement was yet ssfble with concessions on both sides. mall sald the time for talking had ended and would not discuss the situa- tion other than to say that hope for peace had not been abandoned. Advices from Chicago, which, next to this city, is vitally ‘interested in' the strike, indicate that Labor, Commis- sioner Neill has failed in reaching. a settlement of the difficulties between the strikers and 'the Western Union and Postal companies. A dispatch says that a strike is expected. there or in New York by Monday night. ‘Further, the dispatch says: gL “It {s known that nonunion. operators are being moved about the country and that several hundred are located in Chicago. The local union has a searching committes in the fleld and the location of every ome known to be able to work a wire is reported at head- quarters. The situation is hourly grow- ing worse in Chicago. General Secretary Wesley Russell of the international union said this afternoon that he ex- pegted word tomorrow that all further negotiations had been broken off and m.e‘,‘ general strike would result.” BENJAMIN COREY KILLED jamin Corey of San Francisco was killed here late this afternoon by be- out into the roadstead and torpedoed her as the only means of saving her from destruction.

H, July 14.~Ben- Phoenix, | v',a,nd .Fate of Third Is UnknownA S ™ Captain A. Pedersen, corhmander of the cod fishing barkentine S. N.. Castle, arrived. in.this port yesterday afternoon, and, hurrying to the Merchants’. Exchange, filed a report of his voyage into Asiatic waters, that. may, develop strained relations between the United States and Russia. He reported that three fishing vessels—the S. N. Castle, the John D: Spreckels and the Fremont—out from San Fran- cisco and fishing in the Q{vaterso{ the:Okhotsk sea, had been over- hauled by the Russian gunBoat Mandjur, commander unknown, and their, papers seized. They had then been‘givenv seven days of grace in which, to leave Okhotsk waters, with the alternative of seizure of the ships and irons for the crews. The' first named two vesels, after waiting until the eve of the sixth day for the Fremont, set sail and were not further molested. ‘Part’ of the Fremont’s crew had gone ashore and that vessel was forced to stay more than the allotted time. As the Castle, which waited until the returning gunboat hove in sight, was leaving, the officers of the gunboat were boarding the Fremont, which still lay at anchor. Its fate and that of its crew are a matter of conjecture. The fishing vessels were not poaching, as they understbod the fishing law, but with their papers gone and their crews confronted with a Siberia prison the captains, after a consultation, decided to return to a home port.

Rumor connected at least halfi a dozen well known persons with the office, but denials were made on-behalf of James D. Phe- Ian, Daniel A. Ryan, E. J. le Breton, H. U. Brandenstein and F. W. Dohrmann. All preparations for a grand municipal house cleaning have been made. The plan agreed upon by the graft prosecutors provides for the election of a succes- sor to Mayor Boxton by the {supervisors at their meeting today. The resignation of |the supervisors and the nam- ing of a new board is to fol- low in close succession. A cleaning out of the various municipal commissions is also planned. In short, the new chief executive is to so change the administration of affairs that Eugene E. Schmitz, sometime occu- pant of the mayor’s chair, will suspect the seneschal at the county jail of having given him a flagon of Rip Van Winkle’s cure for in- somnia.
