San BernardinO Strikers Can't
Use Their Tower.
United States Court at Los An
geles Interferes.
STRIKERS SCATTER.
Leaving Shop Towns in Search
eff Employment.
Claim They Will All Come Back
When Needed.

San Bernardino, Cal, June deputy
United States Marshal Tragear came
up from Los Angeles, bringing with
MIN subpoenas for eight machinists and
boilermakers. The papers were served
last evening, Secretary Smith, of the
Santa Fe machinists, and President
Wolf. of the San Bernardino lodge,
being among those favored.
The subpoenas instruct the men to be
present in the United States Los An
geles court at 10 o'clock June Z, the day
set for the injunction proceedings and
''snow cause and prove their right to
erect a tower overlooking the Santa Fe
yards, from which they now view the
shops by means of a telescope and
photograph the enclosure with cam
eras.
All this the men have been doing
fgom their aerial platform in West
to do its best to have the strikers en-
Joined from such moves in the per-
manent injunction which it hopes to
get before Judge Wellborn.
The men on their part state that the
entire matter is in the hands of their
attorneys They say they have obeyed
the present injunction in that they
have not set foot on the company
property. The ground upon which their
tower stands belongs to private parties
and has been leased to them.
A copy of the order received by the
men last evening was at once sent to
their Los Angeles attorneys who will
advise the strikers at an early date.
Strikers Scattering.
Reports from San Bernardino are
that the strikers are scattering to
other cities to find employment. This
would indicate that the machfnists
were about AL in" but they stoutly
maintain otherwise.
Don't think that because the strik-
ers are seeking temporary employ
ment elsewhere that they have aban-
doned the fight" said San Bernar-
dino maChiniSt, who added: That is
only one indication that they intend
to stand by the cause. There is a
law of the union which makes it nee
essary for a member leaving one dis
trict to take work in another that he
must be regularly transferred to the
lodge in the district in which he is
working. This law is not effective
during a strike, but according to the
rules no transfer during such a time
trouble, for instance, and no one will
deny but that the machinistS won, tn
strikers scattered all over the country.
One of the StipulauOnS of settlement
was that the company should take
back every man who struck, and it
was necessary for men to return from
as far away as New York. Many of
them had gotten well located at dis
tant points and didn't want to return,
but the union was standing by its com
pact and compelled them to- or they
could have been finally transferred.
Many of them worked with the Union
Pacific a year, or whatever the stip-
ulated time was, and then returned to
their former positions. So you see
that though the local strikers drift to
the farthest ends of the earth they will
all come home again when the strike
is settled, and the union will insist
that the company take back every man
who went out"

Immediately proceeds to find and de-
liver the desired piece of luggage
1t is believed that hand baggage can
be delivered to many hundred persons
with but little delay by this method
as the counter is very long and many
assistants will be behind it.
The various transfer and delivery
companies that carry baggage to the
trains have adopted system by which
trunks can be delivered with the least
possible loss of time.
Substations have been esta blished in
many parts of the city, to which all
baggage from the territory around will
be delivered.
When this baggage is delivered it is
sorted into heaps, each heap for the
same train. and when the time arrives
the pieces are delivered at the station
for the trains.
In this way the necessity of sending
baggage direct from the point of or
igin to the station is obviated, and the
wagons are kept in sufficient numbers
at the substation instead of being scat
tered over the routes to the station,
as would be the case if all were COM
PEELED to deliver at that point.

OLD FRIENDS FAIL OUT.
Santa Fe and Southern Pacific Dis
agree About Fruit Traffic.

Santa Fe and Southern Pacific Dis
agree About Fruit Traffic.
There is said to have been a severe
break in the friendly relations hither-
to existing between the Southern Pa
cific and the Santa F'e in Southern
California. The row is said to be over
the deciduous fruit traffic which is
shipped out of the state on joint
through tariffs. Some time ago the
Santa Fe established a steamer ser
vice along the Sacramento river, con-
Meeting with Antioch, and thereby
making a bid for a greater portion of
the fruit shipments. Following this
move, the Southern Pacific gave notice
of a cancellation of the through rate,
and of all contracts of shipment under
them, with a view, it is thought, of
lowering the rate and driving the
Santa Fe out of the field The rela-
tons of the two companies have been
exceedingly unfriendly of late Re-
Gently they entered into an agreement
regarding the traffic in Northern Cali
fornia, but if the deciduous fruit row
spreads, it is likely to upset all ar
engagements.

He is making an inspection of the COM

He will go from here to Los Angeles.
Mr.. Lowell was accompanied from AL

Mr.. Lowell has nothing to say re-

concerned, there is not strike.

about a strike but the company has

Assistant superintendent of Termi-

from an average of 5000 pieces to
$500 pieces. This includes hand bag
gage, which has increased in a far
