FUTILE EFFORTS
To END STRIKE
One Obstacle in Way
Of the Union Pacific
Settlement.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, Jan. 6-After three un-
successful conferences with Horace G.
Burt, president of the Union Pacific, the
representatives of that railroads striking
machinists decided to-day that no agree
ment could be reached in New York and
arranged with Burt to move the confer
enCe headquarters to Omaha. A fourth
conference will be held there on January
Is between Burt and new representatives
from the strikers, consisting of the gen
eral committees of all labor organizations
interested in the strike.
There was no actual deadlock between
the employees committee and Mr.. Burt"
This was the most favorable statement
that could be made after the conference
to-day The meeting in Omaha will be in
the nature of an investigation. President
Burt contends that of the 5000 men out on
strike the majority are in favor of piece
work, and this is one of the points that
will be decided IN Omaha. The demand
for the abolition of piece work has been
the chief stumbling block during the New
York conferences. II Burt ascertains to
his satisfaction that the strikers are
unanimous in their demand for a return
to the per diem system, it is probable that
he will concede the point and end the
strike.

SALOON KEEPER
SHOT To DEATH
Annie Piggott and Her
Brother Arrested on
Suspicion.

SEATTLE, Jan. 6.-Nance F. Lewis, a
saloon-keeper Of this city and formerly
employed by Wells, Fargo & Co. at San
Francisco, was killed in his apartments
at 523 Yesler way early this morning by
a bullet which entered his brain from a
3s-caliber Colts revolver.
Annie Lewis, alias Annie Piggott, the
woman with whom he lived, and George
Piggott, her brother, are in custody. sus-
pected of having committed the crime.
The woman at first claimed that Lewis
committed suicide, but later contradicted
herself and asserted that he killed him.
self accidentally.
The bullet which killed Lewis first
passed through his hand. 1t is the theory
of the police that he threw his hand up
to protect himself from assault, and in
this manner receiving the bullet which
afterward lodged in his brain. Lewis had
been in the saloon and concert-hall busi-
ness at Seattle for twelve years, having
come to this city from San Francisco i'm
mediately after the fire of 1889.
