TROUBLE FEARED
Between Union and Non-Union Sailors
at Los Angeles

Between Union and Non-Union Sailors
at Los Angeles
Los ANGELES, Cal, May GA special
to the Herald, from Redondo, says that
last night conflict occurred between
union and non-union sailors at that
point.
For some days the union sailors have
been endeavoring to get the non-uniOn
sailors of the Halcyon, which is tied up
TO the wharf, with no success. Last
night Captain Price, of the Halcyon,
became aware of the matter and had a
constable and several deputies on board
the vessel, armed to the teeth. The
crew were aboard. The union men APP
peared, twenty strong, and demanded
that the non-union men come ashore;
they refused. The union men en-
deavored TO board the vesse' and the
crew fired q volley over their heads.
Another attempt called forth another
volley. The union men then departed.
The union sailors, 1t is expected, will
make trouble not only with the Haley
on's crew, but with those of the other
vessels now at anchor, all of which
have non-union men on board.

INSPECTING THE COUNTRY
Officials of the Everett Land Company
on Tour of inspection


on a Tour of inspection
A special train consisting of one Wis.,
consin Central coach, Charles l.. Col
by's private car, drawn by an engine
of the Everett d Monte Cristo road,
passed through here yesterday with "a
party of capitalists making an inspec.
ton of the country.
The party consisted of f.. b. Bartlett,
director of the Everett Land Company
and vice-president of the Pacific Steel
Bardge Company; Schuyler Durgee,
general manager of the Everett Land
Company, aud Henry Hewitt, presi-
dent of the Everett Land Company.
They came from Everett over the
Great Northern, and from Sehome
junction went over the Bellingham
Bay ~ British Columbia TO Sumas,
where they again changed TO the Se-
attic, Lake Shore n Eastern and went
TO Suohomish, to continue from there
up the Everett IL Monte Chnsto road,
which now extends out from Everett
thirty-One miles and comes to an ab-
ruPt end ia a deep canyon, which is
the center of the proposed shipping
point for all ores in the district. at Is
the intention If the owners of this
road" Mr.. Hewitt said, "io build across
the mountains from point on the
Skykomish to the Skagit val
ley and continue up the Sauk
valley to the Lake Chelan mines. We
have already found an available pass
and propose To place all the mines in
that section within easy reach Of the
smelters we are building in Everett.
The grades will be in our favor when
bringing out ores and we can transport
ores to our smelters cheaper than they
can be placed at any other Oh the
Sound. We have located extensive
coal deposits on our property and have
first-ciass fuel in sight, which can be
placed beside our furnaces for less
money than any manufacturing plant
on the Sound now pays for fuel"
When asked what was the particular
object of this trip, Mr.. Hewett replied
" We are looking for anything that
may be made u valuable tributary to
Everett, and will try TO turn toward
our city everything that your enter.
prising business men have not already
laid claim to as tributary to the Bay"
After short trip about the town the
party departed for Sumas, under the
care Of Superintendent BraniD, Of the

ABOUT n WOMAN
A Gun Brought Into Play to Enforce

A Gun Brought Into Play to Enforce
an Argument
An exciting affair took place on
Ocean dock as the City Of Seattle was
about TO leave yesterday morning, ia
which two men quarreled about a
woman who was frequently mem
toned, and one accused the other Of
running away with his wife. Words
were abandoned as Inadequate, and "a
gun brought forth to enforce the argu-
ment, at the sight of which the other
man made rapid escape toward town.
The man who exhibited the gun went
ON board of the steamer, which left at
once, and it was impossible to ascertain
whether he was the lawful owner of
the wife, or was the party eloping with
her. None Of the employees about the
wharf knew the parties to the quarrel,
and it was impossible to obtain their
names elsewhere, although they are
said to be Blue Canyon miners.
