San Francisco, July 24-The wholesale
and retail business houses are experienc-
ing great difficulty in having their goods
hauled, owing to the strike of the teams
tiers, which was recently inaugurated. 1t
is estimated that $500 teamsters have left
their work, and it is thought this number
will be greatly added to during the next
few days, owing, it is said, to the fact that
the employers are determined not to yield
point to the striking men. If the strike
continues other branches of labor will be
affected. The porters will go out and
longshoremen will refuse to handle goods
for nonunion drivers or for firms employ
ing nonunion men. 1t is generally believ-
ed that there will be a general tieup of
wholesale and retail business.

Wilkesbare, Pa, July 23.-More mine:
with the aid of the United Mine worker:
resumed operations in the Wyoming val
ley Monday. Committees from the strik
ing stationary firemen waited upon the
AIperintendents of the coal companies and
asked to be reinstated. At some of the
mines the committees were told that the
places of the strikers were filled. At 9th
ers the names of the old firemen were
taken and the committees were told that
if their services were needed they would
be sent for. In accordance with the agree
ment entered into at the conference last
night by the executive officers of the
United Mine workers and the chief Of
iicers of the stationary firemen, Ssss.se Of
the firemen belonging to the United Mine
workers gave notice today that they vii
give up their positions. This will make
room for the old firemen. There seems t.
be no question but that the strike will b.
officially declared off tonight, and that al
least 50 per cent of the strikers will b'
back in their old places tomorrow, when i
is expected there will be general re
sumption of mining operations.

SCHOOL CLOSED
The Tea ;ter Injured In a Run
away Accident in1 Reported
to Have Gone Insane.

In October, 1886, one Monday
morning the Rushford school did not
open and it was reported that the
teacher had gone insane. The physi
clan in attendance pronounced the
trouble nervous prostitution and said
that school work was mentally and
physically impossible. The teacher,
who is now Mrs. L. A. Gullickson, of
Rushford, Mimi, in recent inter-
view published in the Star of that
place, gives the true story of the event.
"To begin at the beginning" she
said, "when l was about seven years
OF age a sudden fright brought on a
dreadful condition of nervousness.
When, in 1896, l was injured in a
runaway accident, this, combined with
my former trouble, made me so ill
that l was unable to open school the
following Monday"
"Was it true that you were report
ed to be insane?" asked the inter-
viewer.
Eyes, and the members OF my
family thought that was becoming
so. Words do not express the agony
| endured with my bead and eyes.
The least noise would cut through
my nerves like knife. 1 was hot
and cold by flashes, had piercing
pains in my temples and in the back
of my head and a red mist was con-
stantly before my eyes.

nausea, which nothing relieved. l

.STATUS0F F|REMEN' 5 STRIKE.
1T MAY SOON BE AT AN END
Insist That the Mine Workers Define
Their Position Definitely Once For
ALL oficia1 Statement Issued From
Firemen's Headquarters.

Willkesbarre, Pa, July 22.-The
stationary firemen's strike will soon
be at an end. AT meeting of the
executive officers of the United Mine
workers and the officers of the fire.
mems order, the fremen insisted that
the mine workers define their posi-
ton definitely once for all, as it was
impossible to carry on the strike If
the United Mine workers opposed it.
tive officers of the mine workers
agreed to come to this city and meet
the strikers. The United Mine work
ers were represented by 26 officers
Of the three districts. The Stationary
Firemens association was represent.
ed by ]. F. Mullahey, president of the
association; Thomas Barrett, vice
president; ]. A. Gerrity, secretary;
Brodus Langdon and J. F. Wade.
7. d. Nichols, president of District
No. IA. opened the discussion. He
said the strike was inopportune at
this time. 1t was detrimental to the
miners, who were under agreement
with the operators to remain at
work for one year and if the United
Mine workers remained out it would
mean the sacrifice of the good will
of the coal operators.
President Fahey of the Ninth dis.
trict, also spoke against the strike
He claimed the strike was inoppor-
tune and that his men were opposed
to it. President Duffey of the Sew
enth district. said the firemen in his
district did not go out on strike. This
showed lack of unity and the strike
could not succeed.
The following official statement
was issued from firemen's headquar.
tiers tonight:
"After the officers of the three dis
| tricts of the United Mine Workers
defined the attitude they contemplat.
ed assuming toward the firemen
should their strike continue we
thought that it would be to the in.
terest of all concerned to bring it to
speedy termination and in conse.
quence thereof we made PROPOSE
lions to them which were adopted
after. which we instructed the firemen
to pursue all honorable means to
have their positions returned. AL
though the strike is not yet declared
off until after the answers are receiv
ed from their employers, yet it seems
to be the prevailing opinion that
should they be favorable the action
of the delegates Monday evening
will end the strike. But should any
one now out of employment on the
ground of the strike be Disseminated
against the end would be as far off as
ever The firemen are determined tc
stand by those who sacrificed theiI
positions before they would take oul
places. All of the firemen who are
still at work shall remain until after
this convention.
