Special Dispatch to The Call.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct 1S.-At 8:3O a. m. the German imperial yacht Ho- henzollern, accompanied by the Ger man warship Hela and the Sultan's yacht Izzedin with the Turkish Imperial Commission on board, and followed by a number of special steamers chartered by members of the German colony or conveying sightseers, appeared off Old SeragliO Point, and the guns of the bar racks thundered a salute. The Hela fol- lowed with a return salute and the Turkish batteries ashore and the guardship off Tophaney promptly re- sponded.
 The Hohenzollern anchored at S:45 a. m. off Dolmabagtche Palace, with the Heretha and Helva above and below her. Soon aftepward the Emperor and Empress entered the Hohenzollern's longboat and were rowed to the palace landing station, where they were re- ceived by the Sultan, who was sur rounded by a brilliant suite.
 The meeting between the Sultan and his guests was most cordial. The Sul- tan warmly shook hands with the Elm peror and Empress and, offering his arm to the Empress, led the way to pavilion off the palace, where the party had brief rest.
 Emperor William engaged in an anil mated conversation with the Sultan. the Grand Vizier and other members of the Sultan.s suite.
 The route from the Dolmabagtche Palace to the Yildiz Palace was cov- cred with red carpeting and lined with troops in new uniforms, prominent among them being the Sultan's body guard and the imperial body guard, in new white uniforms embroidered with black, white helmet. and having a waistband of Germany's colors. The whole made a magnificent display. Standing a little apart from the crowd were large gatherings of Turkish women who coupled a slope facing the Dolmabagtche Palace. In the rush of the people to secure points of vantage they climbed trees, railings and posts
 The Sultan has presented to Emperor William a magnificent sword and to the Empress a diamond necklace of almost priceless value. He has also authorized a German syndicate to construct com mercial post at Haidar, opposite Con- stantinople. a concession long sought by German promoters.

HAVANA, Oct 18.-The two commits sions are to-day as far as ever from an agreement concerning the date of the final evacuation of Cuba. Last week the Spanish Commissioners announced that it would be impossible to withdraw all the troops before January 15, which date it was then believed would be agreed upon.
 Misunderstanding arose, and now the commissions are so far apart that an agreement between them seems gn- likely Colonel Girauta to-day told me he thought the matter would be re- ferred back to the Governments in Washington and Madrid.
 The Americans will make final at tempt to reach an understanding by arranging an informal conference be- tween General Butler and General Par rado. These two will meet with nc one present save two interpreters, and many subjects will be discussed with more freedom than could be permitted in formal session.
 It would seem unfair to charge the Spaniards with double dealing, and the Americans place no confidence in the reports from Paris that Premier Sa- gasta has ordered General Blanco not to evacuate Cuba until the Philippine question Is settled. The Americans point to the complete plan of Cuba's de- lenses placed inrtheir hands by General Blanco, as cabled yesterday, as evi- dence of honorable intentions.
 More than that the Spanish troops are evacuating the island as rapidly as possible considering the ships at their command The Americans first as- sumed control In Santiago, and since then evacuation has been going on from east to west. Havana will be the last point under Spanish control.

PARIS, Oct 18.-In the Paris edition of the Herald on Sunday was published a communication giving the result of the University of California architect ural competition held at Antwerp. Eleven competitors received prizes. The plans will come up for final Judgment before an international jury which meets in San Francisco.
 Mrs. Hearst is at present in Paris and the correspondent of the Herald saw her on Monday in the hope of ob- taining some idea of the scope of the plans and cost. J. B. Reinstein, regent of the University of California, who represented the institution at the Ant werp competition, presented me to Mrs. Hearst and explained my errand.
 You really must not ask me about anything" exclaimed Mrs. Hearst. T do not want to talk about the matter. MT. Reinstein will tell you everything" !"
 But Mrs Hearst" I said, will you not give me in few words an idea of what you propose to do and an es- innate of the cost?"
 Ask MT Reinstein; he will tell you everything" were Mrs. Hearst's last words.
 Mrs. Hearst always refuses to be in- tervieWed upon what she. does or hopes to do," said MT. Reinstein. "She is ex- ceedingly reticent in regard to her gift to the University of California.
 ITO B. R. Maybeck, instructor of architectural drawing, belongs the credit of originating the scheme. Then Mrs. Hearst came forward and made it possible for the idea to be developed She has selected as trustees to carry out her wishes Governor James H. Budd of California, Professor William raT nf fo onff1f oV,6 e.If MT. Maybeck was granted a years leave of absence. He and visited all the principal cities of the United States seeking information rom the best known men in educational circles. A meeting of architects and artists was held in New York at which the project was discussed and at which about two hundred and fifty gentlemen were pres ent. MT. Maybeck then came to Flu rope, visited all the great seats of learning in the British empire and on the Continent. l joined him here and then we returned to San Francisco and arrangements were made for the com petition which has just been held at Antwerp"
 will Mrs. Hearst give all the money needed to carry out the plan?" I asked
 "Oh, no. While Mrs. Hearst is a great friend of the university there are others who intend to assist at this work"
 About how much money will be re- quired?"
 Tt Is impossible to state any amount. can say that the State of California has set aside $1,0000 900 for the buildings. Generous friends of the university have promised the funds necessary to erect several other buildings and Mrs. Hearst in addition to furnishing the money for the new buildings for schools of mines and for the endowment of it's faculty will present the institution with one or more additional buildings"

JUDGE HAMMOND
 ENJ0INS STRIKERS
Declares They Must Not Restrict or Molest Workmen Who Have
 Taken Their Places.

CLEVELAND, Oct 1S.-Judge Ham, mond of the United States Circuit Court granted the application of the American Steel and Wire Company for an in- junction against the, striking wire-draw- CTS to-day. The injunction is a blanket one and applies to all the defendants named in the petition and to any others who may hereafter interfere with the employees of the company.
 : The court held that those seeking em> ployment in the place of strikers have rights which labor unions and strikers are bound to respect, and that one of the rights of every citizen is that of un- obstructed access to the place where work is to be done and over the streets and highways and usual approaches to such place, and that this freedom of access is not at all inconsistent with the rights of strikers sto use the same streets and highways for the lawful conduct and maintenance of their strike by peace> able entreaty or argument with men in- tending to supplant them in employment. The injunction granted restrains the strikers from In any manner interfering with the operation of the complainant's 8 mill and from molesting or intimidating or threatening those desiring to work at the mills; also from congregating about and picketing the mill or the houses Of the employees for the purpose of intimi- dating.

STRENGTHENING THE
 FORTS OF GIBRALTAR.
Spain Is Pronting Ky Her War and Using It Pretext to Strength
 on the Forts There.

New York, Aug. 12..-A dispatch to The Tribune from Gibraltar says:
 The reports circulated by the Span ish authorities at Tarifa to the effect that troops had been sent back from Car nero and adjacent ports to Algiracas, whence they were being drafted to their homes, are without foundation On the contrary, measures for defense actively continue and the 7600 men who garrison the line of forts from San Roque to Car. nero and Guadalmina have just been re- inforced by an entire regimento of noun tain artillery, with 40 guns and are en- camped on the heights about San Roque.
 The armament of the three batteries recently completed at Punta Carno and on the Isle of Verte consists for each battery of four quickfring Ordonez guns of 15 centimetres cahber and two 24-cen. timeter caliber Ordonez guns. Twenty. five or 30 guns of smaller ca1ihor, utalso of the Ordonez pattern, are ill pasg near the water batteries, apparently waInng to be placed in position.
 To military observer it is perfectly evident at the Notifications recently completed by the Spanish engineer of ticers and now receiving their armament are especially directed against any of fensive movement from Gibraltar The Spanish government is thus not only taking serious precautions against any possible Anglo American combination near Gibraltar, but is profting by the last days of the American war to finish the formidable line of works confront ing Gibraltar, which, if done in ordi- nary times of peace, might be interpret ed as a menace to England and cause demands for an explanation.

T0RKEFS ARMY MAY
 CAUSE TROUBLE
Spanish Towns Selected For Their Elm. barkation Are Indignant and Are
 Afraid of Disease.

New York, Aug. 12.-A dispatch to The Tribune from Corunna via, Hen. dave says:
 Great dissatisfaction prevails here, at Vigo and Santander, that these points should have been selected for the san ltary camps to receive General Toral's Santiago army. Exaggerated reports of yellow fever and other diseases that the troops are likely to bring with them nave caused almost a panic among the ignorant population.
 The fort of Corunna remains absolute. iy defenseless, and at Yigo there are only two gunboats, the Halcon and Ha- bana. All the commercial towns of the Oantabrian coast are completely at the mercy of any hostile cruiser, for not even torpedoes or submarine mines have been laid.
 The population of these northwestern provinces is absolutely opposed to the continuation of the war under any pre-. text whatever, and this is especially so Ill the seacoast towns, which would un. doubtedly surrender at the very first sight of an Americon warship, i'll order to avoid bombardment. The people in the towns and in the country have an ad- equate food supply and the cost of liv- ing in this part of Spain is no dearer now than before the war.
 There is no increase in the charges at country inns and hotels. General dis content against the government is no. ticeable, but the people have neither lead CTS nor money to assume active hostility.
 Meanwhile the attitude of the army is anxiously observed, for in the popular belief it is now the army alone which controls the situation.
