A LONG FIGHT.
Failure to Settle San Francisco
Strike Presagss Bitter Battle.

San Francisco, Aug. e-Negotlations
for a settlement of the labor troubles
having resulted in failure, the indica-
tions now are that the strike will not be
ended until after a bitter and protracted
struggle,
Mayor Phelan's closing statement of his
services as mediator shows that the EN-
ployers' association decline TO re-employ
their men unless the latter will agree not
to go on sympathetic strikes or use sym
pathetic boycots.
AS an Offset the employers say they
will not discriminate against employers
Of Union labor or against Union en-
ployes. Neither side Will yield the points
at issue and the mayCg therefore consid-
ers the negotiations closed.
That the San Francisco Labor Council
evidenced by its course i'm en-
tering the contest for the first time and
calling out the sand teamsters. II was ex-
pected by many that the council, which
controls about 25.000 men would order a
general strike but this will not be done
al present.
Andrew Furuseth, secretary OF the Sail
ors union OF the Pacific and one OF the
strike managers, says that for the pres
ent, at least. the strike will not be extend
ed beyond San Francisco and San Fran
cisco bay.
Shipping in this port remains pretty
well tied up, although some of the big
steamship companies are keeping up work
on the docks. lodging and boarding their
non-union employees on board vessels
which have been converted into tempor-
airy hotels.
Gov. Gage has been in the city for
two days watching the progress OF events
In the labor troubles He came expressly
TO be on the ground In the event OF any
emergency arising requiring his presence
and has declared his intention to act as
mediator between the employers and
the employees should his services be de-
sired.
About 500 journeymen painters are on
strike for increased wages and the iron
workers are still out. but they are not
directly involved I'm the contest between
the City Front Federation the Labor
Council and the Employers association.

lodges have been formed in the Carne-
gle mills at Homestead and Duquesne.
Wellsville, Ohio. Aug. 6.--The plant Is
working stronger today than any time
since the strike began. Five OF the six
mills were running and Manager Book

dag or so until the plant will be running

pany on Bessemer street This plant has
been closed since the Inauguration of the
Amalgamated strike.
The Superintendent OF the mill said
operations would be resumed this after
noon and declared that the old men would
return TO work. The strike leaders how
ever, while they admit a few assertions
from their ranks. assert that not enough
men would be secured To operate the mill.
Indications today pointed to the aban-
donment by the United States Steel cor
poration of the plan 10 operate a hoop
mill I'm Cleveland. A force OF men to-
day began TO remove the hoop machinery

$25O,0O0
In GOLD
STOLEN.
Robbers TunnsIsd Into the
Selby Smelling Works TO
Get at Treasure. J

San Francisco, Aug GA quarter OF
million dollars worth OF gold bullion was
stolen from the Selby smelling works al
Vallejo during the night
Access 60 the strong room where the
bullion WAS stored was secured through a
tunnel which the thieves had bored from
the edge Of San Francisco bay 10 the
building some distance from the waters
edge. IL IS supposed the thisyes took
their plunder away by boat.
The Selby smelter is the largest on
the Pacific coast, Ores are sent there
from all parts OF the Westegn slope for
reduction. The works are located near
the bay shore. about 30 miles from San
Francisco, and through the clever device
OF tinneling through the Loose sand the
robbers secured a princely sum. the loss
of which was not discovered until after
the works resumed operations today.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1901-08-06

Pittsburx. Aug. s-The general strike
order was not issued by President Shat
fer this morning and it may be delayed
beyond the time limit made by him yes
terday.
He SAYS there are sufficient reasons for
the delay, but the only apparent cause is
saad 10 be the hope entertained that the
officers OF the big steel corporation may
soon realize the serious results that win
follow a general closing OF the union
plants and make overtures for peace.
The officials Of the steel combine do not
appear 20 be worrying over the delay and
seem confident as ever that they will
win. They believe the delay in issuing
the strike order is due 90 the fact that the
officers OF the workers organization are
not certain OF their ability 10 bring out
the union men desired.
One thing appears certain and that Is
President Shaffer will not call out the
men before the later part of the week.
IL is said President Shaffer is preparing
the notices TO the different companies
which will state that he intends 10 call
the men out.
