Washington, d. c., July 26.-Sur-
geon General Wyman has re-
ceived information In regard to the
case of bubonic plague discovered on
the steamship Hohenfels at New York.
DR.. Wyman said this afternoon the

measures would be taken to prevent
the infection reaching shore. Despite
the most rigorous measures of pre-
caution bubonic plague still appears in
San Francisco. The thorough clean
ing up Of Chinatown under supervision
of the federal authorities was COM
pleted on June %, and no cases Of the
dreaded disease appeared during the
cleaning process, but It had hardly
been finished when the infection broke
out once more. Three cases were dis
covered between July 6 and July IL.
All were fatal and were reported to
the marine hospital service in Wash
ington with the following comments:
Diagnosis confirmed by bacteriologi-
cal examination and necessary precau-
ton taken. Passed Assistant Surgeon
Rupert Blue, in charge, and two as
sistants continue to cooperate with the
state and city health authorities In
making inspections and post>c: ortem
examinations" Reports of increased
mortality from bubonic plague con-
tinue to come in from United States
marine hospital surgeons in nearly
every part of the world. In Hong
Kong there have been 1,154 cases and
1,08S deaths, and the most rigid in
spection of incoming and outgoing
passengers and baggage is exercised.
There were 115 deaths during the week

'SHAFFER ACTS DEFECTIVE
IN Disguise Warns Steel Workers
to Keep Peace.
SEES PLOT OF THE COMBINE.
Non-Union Men Arriving at WeiisviiIe
Threatened with violence--some Are
sent Ont OF Town-Experisnce OF y
strike -Breaker..

Wellsville, O., July 26.-President T..
J. Shaffer of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation Of Iron and Steel Workers
was in Wellsville in disguise in the
afternoon. He came down from Pitts
burg. On the same train were four
men who claimed to be sheetworkers,
but were not. No one in the crowd
noticed an old man with stopped
shoulders, SLOUGH hat drawn we'll
down over his face, and carrying a
gripsack. The man went to a hotel
where he sent for Vice President
Chappell and other strike leaders, who
found enough of disguise removed to
show the man was President Shaffer.
Shaffer claimed four men on the train
were sent down to incite the strikers to
violence, so the mill management
could apply for an injunction. He
heard of their intention to go on the
3 o'clock train. With the idea of be-
ing star witness in the event of trou-
BILE he disguised himself. Shaffer said:
There will be no Injunction. There
has been no disturbance and there will
be none. Until some overt act is COM
mitted there can be no application.
An injunction in this case would only
serve to aggravate matters and would
do more than anything else to precipi-
tate trouble. IT would also hasten a
conference of all the labor leaders OF
the country for consideration of the
question:
On the same train with Mr.. Shaffer
from Pittsburg came nine nonunion
men from Apollo and Duncansville, five
of whom evaded the strikers commit
tee and went to work in the mill, while
the other four, after going through an
experience with the 100 strikers, which
at one time seemed likely to end in
violence, agreed not to work in the
mill and returned to Pittsburg. The
experience of the nonunion men as
sumed threatening aspect for time,
but the quickness of five got them into
the company Offices almost before the
train had come to a halt. The strikers
had received notice of the coming Of
the men and met the train. When the
nonunionists tumbled off they were
surrounded. No violence was at
tempted. but the greeting of catcalls
and ugly epithets was calculated to
put the newcomers in anything but an
easy frame of mind. Four succumbed
to the arguments of the strikers and
returned to Pittsburg. William Car
penter, a professional strike-breaker,
who has been working in the nonunion
sheet mills at Apollo, was run out of
town, amid the jeers and boots of 500
strikers and sympathizers, who gath
cred at the station. Carpenter was
pro badly never more glad to get out of
any place than he was Wellsville. He
went there last night and was at once
taken charge of by the strikers. He
was invited to go to the fishing camp
of strikers on the West Virginia side
of the Ohio river, but declined to CO.
Being urged, he became defiant but, on
the invitations becoming more press
ing, he consented At the camp, in
virtual imprisonment, he consented to
leave Wellsville.
