THE STRIKE IN FRISCO
FEW CHANGES IN THE LABOR
 SITUATION.
No Serious Disturbance Occurred Yesterday-Non- Union Men are Being Secured to Fill the
 Vacant Jobs.

San Francisco, July 3l.-There were few changes in the local labor situa- tion and no serious disturbances oc- cured today. The employers say there is nothing in sight but hard battle, Two Of the big steamship companies assert that they are getting non- union men to fill the places of some of the strikers and believe they can within a short time secure all the men they need. An intimation was made that the steamship companies would, if neces- sary, bring men to San Francisco from other points in the United States.
 Arriving vessels today were deserted by their crews who immediately re- paired to headquarters of the Sailors Union. Several foreign vessels are be- ing loaded by their own crews. The sand teamsters were today ordered out, which may put a stop to building oper- ationS
 It is thought by some that the out come of the strike Is mainly dependent upon the coal supply. Only one large bunker was in operation this morning and 1t is said there is not enough coal in the city to meet the demand longer than two weeks. A scarcity of fuel will not only cripple the manufacturing interests, but every household will feel 1t.
 From remarks dropped by some of the federation leaders this morning, it is apparent that the importance of pre- venting the unloading of coal is fully realized by them and that special ef- forts will be made to keep the embargo intact

Buffalo, NY. July 31.--A meeting of prominent W. .. T.

SUIT FILED IN MERIDIAN
General Counsel Russell
 Won't Discuss It.
President Samuel Spencer Says the Southern Has Purchased a Con- trolling Interest in the
 Mobile and Ohio.

Meridian. Miss, July 31.--A serlsa~ tional suit was quietly filed in this city in the Chancery Court, asking that q receiver be appointed for the Mobile and Ohio Railroad
 The petition further requests that the consolidation of the Mobile and Ohia with the Southern be set aside, averrina that 1t is against the laws of MissIs- sippi. One of the reasons given for asking for verdict for a receiver if to give the stockholders as much se< curity as allowed those who hold enor- nous stock interest bearing bonds. Thx application was filed by Smith & Hirscn or Vicksburg for parties who own com mon stock to the value of thirty-ninG shares. As soon as the summons were served on the railroad people Hon. A. J. Russell, attorney for the road, secured the documents and took ths first train for Mobile, where he is today in consultation with the officers ana general attorney of the road.
 The announcement of the suit wilf create quite flutter in railroad circleQ and will doubtless precipitate a stub- born legal fight.
 This. of course is only a surmise. as nothing definite can be learned as tss the attitude of the Mobile and Ohin and it's Southern purchasers. The hard fight the Southern put up before the Railroad Commissioners to bring about the consolidation with the Mobile. and Ohio is still fresh in the mind of thd people of Mississippi. and should the court grant the prayer of the petitions CTS. 1t would mean a succession of ie~ gal controversies which would probablf last for years.
 The application was made by L. Ed monds of Virginia and c. F. Vener of Massachusetts. These are the stock. holders of the Mobile and Ohio wlfr refused to concur in the sale to the Southern. They want to restrain fife management of the Southern from en-. eratfng the Mobile and Ohio. and asIf that a receiver be- appointed to take charge of the Mobile and Ohio and con duct or operate same under direction of the court. They ask that persons now acting as officials of the Mobile and Ohio be prohibited from operating IL. and that the receiver. when appoint~ ed. advertise the names of all Mobsla and Ohio stockholders so that 1t can De ascertained who are the owners If the road. When this is ascertained the receiver Is to be directed to call a meeting of the stockholders for the purpose of electing new officers ana determining a future conduct and pol- Icy Of the road, and when the directors ana orncers are So elected Ire receiver< ship is to be dismissed
 The object Is to block the sale oK the Mobile and Ohio to the Southern.
