Union Iron Works to take the place oi
the strikers, arrived tonight in two di-
visions. The first of these, composed ol
eighteen men, was approached on the
Oakland boat by delegates of the
strikers, and seven of them were per.
suaded to repudiate their contract with
the Union Iron Works and join the ranks
of the strikers.
The fecond squad, consisting of men
for the Fulton aud Risdon Iron Works
were landed at the Folsom-street wharf,
and the third squad, for the City
Iron Works, at the Second-street wharf
They we're all placed inside the foundry

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
SACRAMENTO, March Isl. j. Lagele
member of the Republican city centra
committee, this morning filed papers il
proceedings to contest the recent cleo
ton OF Mayor Comstock. The contestant
alleges on information and belief thai
Eugene J. Gregory received the highes
number of votes, but that the City
Trustees on March 18th canvassed the
returns and declared w. D. Comstock
duly elected. The grounds of the con-
test to the right of Comstock to hold and
exercise the Office of Trustee are based
upon alleged misconduct in each Of the
fifteen precincts as follows:
1t is alleged that the boards of officers
in every precinct counted and tailed
ballots for w. d. Comstock for the Office
OF First Trustee, upon which the name of
Comstock did not appear, and refused to
count and tally ballots for Eugene J..
Gregory upon which the name of said
Gregory did appear.
The contestant alleges that by reason
of the malconduct of the several boards
OF election, w. d. Com6tOck has been un-
lawfully, fraudulently and unjustly de-
clared the duly elected First Trustee of
Sacramento, and for the same reason Eu-
gene d. Gregory has been unlawfully,
fraudulently and unjustly deprived
of his certificate of election to
the Office. 1t is further alleged
that Gregory received higher and
greater number of votes cast at the elec-
tion than did Comstock, and that Greg.
ory is entitled to all the rights, privileges
and immunities of the office of First
Trustee.
Judge Van Fleet, after reading the
complaint, made an order that a special
session of court be held on Monday
April 9TH, at 10 a. m, to hear and deter
mine the contested election, and that
citation issue to respondent as re-
Quested.

In the Mountains.
SACRAMENTO, March 1S.-The rain thai
began last evening came down without
intermission all night, and this morning
brought no prospect of clearing. The
rain was unlike anything known in
March before. in that it Was steady
downpour, with none of the showers that
generally characterize the month. In
many places in the valley the fall was
very heavy, and there was rain at every
point in Northern California where rec
ords are kept. There was rain and snow
in the Sierra Nevadas last night and to-
day, but the fall was relatively mild for
that region. Eight iEches of snow fell

rotary plow reached Truckee this morn
ing and was put to work at once in seven
feet of packed snow on the siding in

toned at Emigrant Gap, and the cyclone
is at Cascade. Thus equipped, the rail-
way company has the utmost confidence
in its ability to cope with all the sno "
that may fall.
