CHICAGO, July 25.-With all peace
negotiations broken off and with all
the allied trades unions employed at
the different plants with the exception
of the teamsters and the stationary en-
gineers, out on strike in sympathy with
the butcher workmen who quit work
two weeks ago, the stock yards strike
tonight had settled down to what prom
ises TO be one Of the bitterest fights
between capital and labor in the his
tory of America. AS has been threat
ened for some time, the allied trades
employed in the packing industry quit
work when called on today to assist the
striking butchers in their efforts to
bring the packers to terms. In several
instances the men did not wait for the
official notification from their leaders
TO go on strike, but threw down their
tools and quit work of their own yoli-
ton.
Teamsters May Join
Tonight the statement was made by
Michael ]. Donnelly, president of the
Butchers union, that every union man
employed at the stock yards, with the
exception of the teamsters and engi-
neers, had responded to orders for a
general sympathetic strike. The engi-
neers, he declared, would join the
strikers tomorrow morning, and unless
there was a speedy settlement of the
difficulty. he said, the teamsters would
undoubtedly join their brother work
men in their struggle for supremacy.
According to Mr.. Donnelly today's
strike swelIed the number of men who
have quit work at the stock yards in
Chicago alone to nearly 10000 persons.
Both sides to the controversy declar-
ed tonight that they were perfectly sat
isfied with the present state of affairs
and were willing to make it fight to a
finish to determine who shall dictate
the terms of a settlement.
According to the packers the general
strike today was a failure it being
claimed by them that not over one-half
The members Of the allied trades quit
work when officially called out by their
leaders this morning. The further
statement was made by the packers
that should all the union men decide 10
join the strikers il would make little
difference TO the employers, as they
had sufficient resources to contest the
ground for an indefinite period.
On the other hand, the labor leaders
assert that all the union employees at
the different packing plants, together
with several hundred employees of the

said that the franchise plank in the
Democratic platform would make the

Senator Jones said he does not favor
the presidential candidate making
canvass by going on a general stump

the subject of personal campaigns was
one OF the topics of the long conference,

objection to presidential candidates

STREET RAILWAY
WINS FIRST ROUND
Judge Lochren Overruies City's
Demurrer and Holds Federal
Court Has Jurisdiction

The street railway company won the
first point in the legal fight between
the company and the city, when Judge
Lochren, in the United States circuit
court yesterday, overruled the demur-
rer interposed by Corporation Attorney
Michael, and held that the federal
court had jurisdiction in the questions
involved This decision means that the
case brought in the federal court by
the street car company for the purpose
of restraining the city from Interfering
with the alleged vested rights Of the
company will be tried upon its merits,
and that it will be tried in the federal
court
There is nothing in the ruling that
prevents the city from proceeding with
the suit Instituted by Corporation At
torney Michael in the state courts. an
action begun with view of annulling
the old horse car ordinance, the pro-
visions of which the company claim are
still operative.
While the decision rendered yester-
day is point in favor of the street
railway company. it has but little bear
ing on the case in general.
The fight between the city and the
company has now resolved itself into
a stubborn contest which must be set
tied by either the federal or the state
court upon its merits alone Mr. Mi
chaef's efforts are to be directed to-
ward delaying the case in the federal
court with a view Of having the case in
the district court brought to trial first.
The street car cornpany's plan is to
have the federal court case called be-
fore the action in the district court.
The city believes it will have an ad-
vantage in the state court, and the
company believes its interest lies in
having the case tried in the federal
court.
Michael Secures an Extension
Corporation Attorney Michael claims
to have gained his first point in his
campaign for delay yesterday when
Attorney Mum stipulated to permit
Mr. Michael an extension of thirty
days time in which to answer to the
complaint in the federal court BY the
terms of this stipulation the city will
not be required to answer before Sept.
1, instead of Aug. /. Mr.. Michael be-
lieves. with this advantage, that he can

NEW YORK, July PA very de-

make Senator German chairman of the
Democratic national committee. After
several conferences among Democratic
leaders, ex-senator Jones and William
F. Sheehan called ON Senator German
at his room and urged him to recon-
slider his determination not to accent

ator remained firm and suggested that
MI Sheehan take the place If it was
necessary to have an Eastern man for
the position. Mr.. Sheehan stated to
Mr.. German and others to whom the
suggestion was communicated that it
was impossible for him to take the
place. He pointed out that he was
the one man who resigned from the
executive committee in 1895 because he
could not support the platform and
candidate that year.

| from cannon. He was thrown fully
| six feet above the top of the thick brush,
| and in falling back spread himself out
in such way that the boughs supported
| him.
The grizzly, not understanding the sud
den disappearance of his enemy, was rush
| ing about, thoroughly angered. 1t was
only a question of a moment or two until
his rushing tactics would shake the man
to the ground, which would have been the
end.
Don Carlos, putting spurs to his horse,
dashed into the thicker, hoping to attract
to himself the attention of the angry
grizzly His path took him under the
! brush on which the puckayro was sup
ported and, reaching up, the don seized
him by the legs.
At the same moment the bear made a
rush for the horse. With great difficulty
Don Carlos retained his hold on the I'M
conscious man. as the horse tore through
the brush with the bear in close pursuit.
Both men and beast were badly bruised
and torn with the brush. The grizzly
followed them into the open, where
he was quickly entangled in the
riatas of the others. On examin-
ing the man to whom had come
the catapult experience, they found that
the bear had all but scalped him with a
single blow. For long time the fellow
was not right in his head, but he finally
| recovered.
Emedi Ortega was a most powerfully
built man. more than six feet in height,
and of extraordinary strength and cour-
age. For many years his records Tor
distance ana accuracy with the RATA
were equaled by no one.
One day at San Fernando horseman
scoffed at Ortega's boosted skill with the
RATA.
Il have a hundred horses in this
corral he said. "P1l bet you can't catch
fifty out of the hundred when We drive
them through the gate one at a time"
dred, or give you $780,, declared Ortega.
And I'll give you the bunch if you can
do it,, offered the horSeman.
Ortega took up his stand near the gate
of the corral, and one at a time the wild
horses were cut out of the bunch and
made a frantic dash for supposed free
dom. With hardly any effort he tossed
his RATA and caught each horse by the
forelegs. When he had caught sixty
seven, missing only one, the horseman
called halt.
.'Take the bunch,'' he said, ST know
when I'm beaten.
1t was this skill with the RATA that
made Ortega's reputation as grizzly
hunter. He did not hesitate to tackle
the largest grizzly single handed, and
generally managed to strange it to death.
Sometimes he did it with single riata
but more often he managed two ropes
from the same saddle. 1t was necessary
to keep the bear from settling back on
his launches. If the grizzly once gained
that position it would seize the rope and
draw the strongest horse toward it, max
ing it necessary to cut the RATA and begin
the battle over again.
They tell of one monster grizzly in the
Ojai valley which once drew three horses
toward it's embrace, holding out against
their united struggles for several minutes
The strain was too great, however, for
him to keep his footing long When the
Californians pulled him off his launches
he was at their mercy.
Most horses have a wholesome fear Of
grizzlies, but Don Carlos once owned a
great bay animal who knew no fear, and
