No Change Noticeable in the Calves

Galveston, Texas, July 3.--The only news
In the Santa Fe machlnists strike today IS
the fact that the advertisements Ia the
daily papers Of the state which nave been
running since the strike have been ordered
withdrawn. This indicates that the ef-
forts of the company TO secure now men
TO take the places OF the strikers are being
relaxed. The usual report or no change IA
the situation was given out at the ONCE
Of the general manager today. It seems
that the men chose rather an inopportune
season to marguerite their strike, as il rs
a time when the business is little dun aud
the company can handle II with Il smaller
force Of mechanics than during the fail
season. Apparently the company has ali
the new men wanted. at least this Is tue
construction naturally placed on the dis
continuance OF their advertisements for
men, unless there were negotiations IN
progress looking TO the adjustment or the
differences The latter Is not tho cas-,
There have been no proposals OF compro
mise submitted by either side.

Houston Line Gets a Monopoly of the

Considerable comment was made in bust
ness circles yesterday on the cahlegrsm
received by Daniel Ripley, the New York
agent OF the Houston line, which also has
local representative. The cable is self
explanatory, aud Is rs follows.
Have closed contracts over q period OF
years for everything to be shipped from
England aud America by all the principal
corporations, companies aud firms, aud all
affiliated companies and concerns controlled
by Them, etc.
This means a monopoly OF the big South
African patronage. II should be explained
that the line is called the Houston line
because 1t Is owned by Il. T. Houston Y
