ing the document over quickly he noted
that it was as much death warrant
as a confession of perjured testimony.
The retraction opened with conteS-
sion that Doolittle had sworn the lie
of Joe Gregory away and that remorse
was guiding him to self-destruct1on.
He takes leave of his family affection
ately. asks that they take his last word
in life and believe his confession, and
when they read it he would no longer
be living Any search for his body
would be useless.
After the signing of the confession
the conspirators bound him hand and
foot and placed him among the camping
traps near a clump of pines. Leaving
him thus, they withdrew some distance
and engaged in earnest conversation.
Doolittle, making up his mind that
death was coming soon, looked quickly
about for some means of escaping. He
felt close to his hands. which were
Iashed behind his back. the camp
hatchet. He succeeded in working it in
such a way with his pinioned hands
that he severed one of the cords. free
ing one hand, and soon liberated him
self. Then began a wild race for life,
in which he outstripped the a,ssassins.
Rrophy is relative of Gregory's s
father and undoubtedly is an instru-
ment in the hands of interested persons
who are seeking Gregory's pardon. Doo-
little is en- route to Weaverville, the
county seat of Trinity County, to con-
suit with the authorities there.

ROSS|TER'S LIFE

strike and It's probable outcome, Chief
Devery said: "This strike should never
have occurred. The men will surely
lose. They are not organized and
think the whole matter will be adjusted
inside of twenty-four hours.
Police Commissioners Hess and York
were at the Municipal Building shortly
after noon and were soon joined by
Commissioner Sexton, Chief Devery,
Deputy Chief Mclaughlin and Presi-
dent Rossiter Commissioner Hess, in
addressing Mr.. Rossiter, was very
plain spoken in his remarks and reit-
Grated his statement of yesterday as
to the advisability Of considering the
strikers claims.
The State Board of Mediation. to
which the grievances of the strikers
were presented last, week by the exec
utive committee of the Knights of La
bor. held a long conference with Presi-
dent Vreeland to-day. After the con-
ference the board issued a statement in
which it said: Mr.. Vreeeland's posi-
ton makes it clear to the board that it
will not be possible, in the present
status of affairs, to have recourse to ar
bitratfon. and the board does not, there
fore. deem it advisable to take further
action at this time. ;"

San Joaquin No. 2, have arrived and
their hands joined the strikers.
1t was rumored late in the afternoon
that an attempt would be made to take
the Jacinto up the river with a crew
from Stockton, but if such was the in
tention it was reconsidered.
A barge belonging to the company
and loaded with sacks of grain stuck
in the middle of the river this after
noon and an offer of, it is said, four
cents sack to transfer them to an
other barge found no takers.
The difference between the men on
the steamer Apache and it's owners has,
it is said, been adjusted and the crew
returned to work. Theirs was not a
demand for more wages, but for
shorter hours.
The striking deckhands are having a
glorious time. The water front is lined
with drunken men and individual and
free fights are of common occurrence.
AS yet nobody has been seriously in
jured.
Whether the strikers will gain their
point or whether they will return TO
work on the old schedule can only be
surmised. The Queen of Yukon, q
down-the-river boat, is here and is do
ing a big business.

Round Valley Man Foils
ASSaSSinS.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

COVELO. July 17.-Excitement Is
running high throughout Round Valley
tonight and fears are entertained that
another war of factions is about to
break out Authoritative reports have
reached here that Sheriff Bergen of
Trinity County is now on a still hunt
not twenty miles away from Covelo,
and that numerous arrests are to be
made in connection with the Littlefield
lynching of several years ago.
These reports were substantiated to-
day. when Augustus Zaccarini, a busi-
ness man of Round Valley, returned
from a hunting trip twenty miles north
of here, just over the Trinity line. Mr..
Zaccarini brings news Of the compul-
sorry retraction of a statement made by
a witness in the lynching case Frank
Doolittle and Walter Clark, two half
breed Indians, were the chief witnesses
against Joseph Gregory when he was
convicted of completely in the Little
field lynching. Gregory is now serv
ing a twenty-year sentence in San
Quentin Zaccarini says a man named
NJ J. Brophy and two others, whose
names are unknown, were spending a
few days hunting and fishing on Red
Mountain Creek, near the .Doolittle
homestead, ostensibly for an outing.
They made numerous visits to the
Doolittle household, making purchases
of milk and eggs, and in this way es-
tabliShed an acquaintance.
On Saturday last Brophy urged Frank
Doolittle to join them and act as guide
to their party as far north as Mad
River. and offering to reimburse him
literally for the trip. Doolittle accepted,
and they arrived at a desirable camping
ground on the north side of the noun
tain. near Mad River, at 6 O'Clock
While Doolittle was engaged with the
duties about camp the conspirators
withdrew short distance from camp
and separated each approaching the
camp from different points.
When Brophy was within few feet
of Doolittle he presented a loaded pis-
tol and demanded that Doolittle attach
his signature to a retraction of all his
testimony offered in the case wherein
Gregory was convicted. Doolittle ex-
claimed that he could not do such a
thing and be a man. Brophy cooked his
revolver and prepared to fire. Then

make an investigation.
Shortly after they had left the station
the proprietor of the store telephoned that

Seventeenth-street station Immediately
dispatched two officers to watch the IN
coming cars. just as they reached / Wen

the dummy of passing car with his
clothes covered with dust. Suspecting
that he was one of the robbers, the police
men hailed the car and drawing their re-
volvers, ordered the suspect to surrender.
He feebly replied that he was shot and
was on his way to seek medical assist
ance. The man was Ravino. He was
bleeding profusely from the wounds in

officers 70 assist him to the City and

The doctors found that the wound in his

What nobler, better ambition can young
couple have than to live loving, helpful
lives, and then, in a green old age, look
back over life that has been mutually
self sacrificing useful and successful? The
one great stumbling block that stands be-
tween most married couples and this ideal
married career is ill-health. If both hus
band and wife would take proper care of
their health there would be more hale
hearty and happy old people in the world.
If, when a man suffers from the little ills
of life, he will resort to DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery the chances are that he
will avoid the big and fatal illnesses. This
great medicine gives a man healthy
hunger, facilitates the flow of digestive
juices, invigorateS the liver, purihes and
enriches the blood and builds firm, muscu-
lar, healthy flesh tissue.
It is an old saying that women are hard
to kill. There is some truth IN this, as far
as the majority of illnesses are concerned.
There is one class of disorders, however,
that quickly undermine any woman's gen
eTal health. No woman can retain her
strength who suffers from weakness and
disease of the delicate and important or
gans that make wifehood and motherhood
possible. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton is an unfailing cure for all disorders
of this description It acts directly on the
sensitive organs concerned, in a natural,
soothing way 1t makes them strong,
healthy and vigorous. 1t prepares them
to bear the burdens of maternity. 1t is
the greatest of nerve tonics. The woman
who uses it will bear healthy, happy child
rem, and live to a ripe old age.

masks, which completely covered their
features.
Early this morning Captain Gillin had
all his available men searching in the
vicinity of the hold-up for trace Of the
robbers. It is believed, however, that i'm
mediately after the shooting they boarded
a car and came to this city. The ser
vices of several detectives at the Central
Station were also enlisted with instruc-
tions to do all in their power to appre-
hend the murderous pair.
Lavari describes the man who shot Ra-
vino as being about feet 10 inches in
height and weighing about $50 pounds
His companion was a trife shorter and
did not appear to be quite as heavy. In
case they are arrested he says he will not
be BILE to identify them.
There is a suspicion among the police
that the men had carefully planned the
hold-up and expected to make big haul.
Their object in firing into the ceiling when
they entered was to intimdate the pro-
prietor, they think. into giving up his
money and valuables without any resist

STRIKE OF DECKHANDS
ON UP-RIVER STEAMERS
Men Demand an Increase Of Salary
and Shorter Hours of
Labor

SACRAMENTO, July 1.-THE deck
Bluff. Jacinto and Varuna, belonging
to the Sacramento Transportation
Company, struck last night for higher
wages. They had been receiving $40 a
month and board and now want $50 a
month. They claim that their hours of
labor are too long. AS a result of the
strike those steamers are laid up. The
companys agent here says he will be
able to secure other men to take the
places of the strikers. The strikers
thus far have been quiet and orderly
and this morning were paid off. The
steamer Dover is expected to arrive
from up the river to-day and it is be-
lieved that the strikers will attempt to
induce the deckhands of that vessel to
join them in their demand for increased
wages.
There is also trouble on the Southern
Pacific steamer Apache, which is
moored to wharf below this city on
account of the low water. The deck
hands would have quit last night, but
were induced to remain over until this
morning. Some of them have already
left and the outcome is matter of con-
lecture. The men have not made a de-
mand for any definite increase in
wages, their principal cause of COM
plant being that they are overworked
The Apache will be able to leave for
San Francisco with the men who re-
manned at work.
Besides the steamers tied up when the
strike was declared. two others of the
-cQmpanys boats, the Dover and the

the company was not living up to the
agreement Several conferences were
held, the latest about a week ago, and 1t
was then announced that everything
was satisfactory or would be as soon
as the company had been given ample
time to adjust schedules and arrange
the runs. The presence on cars of the
non-union men who were retained after
the settlement of the strike was still
a bone of contention, however, and a
crisis was reached yesterday, when, as
claimed, a number of union men were
discharged for refusing to go out on
cars with non-union men.
A meeting followed last night, and at
8 o'clock this morning the decision to
strike was reached. All the lines were
tied up from o'clock until after s.,
when the operation of the Euclid ave-
nue. line with non-union men under po-
lice protection was undertaken. Cars
were run at five-minute intervals on
that line until evening, but no attempt
was made to move cars on other lines.
Henry A Everett, president of the
company, issued statement this even
ing in which he said the terms of the
agreement with the strikers had been
strictly adhered to, but that 1t was i'm
possible to inaugurate all the reforms
promptly because of the continued in
reference with the non-union crews,
and he holds the union men directly
responsible for this. He attributes the
present strike to a feeling of disap-
pointment on the part of the union men
because the non-union men have not
been mobbed and beaten out Of the
company's service. He says that he
will operate the cars if he is given
police protection. Protection has been
promised by Mayor Farley. and it is
said that the militia will be called out
if the police are unable to preserve
order.
There has been little disorder to-day,
and nothing of a serious nature
