COUP TO Be
GATES LAST
Special Dispatch to The Call

CHICAGO, Feb. T.-Rumors of the
proposed retirement of John w. Gates
from the pit if he can secure the
title Of Wheat King" and falling
off in the price of the cereal from
81 213s, yesterdays closing, to figures
ruling between 81 1875 and 81 1915, were
features to-day on the Board Of Trade.
1t was said the big operator intend
ed that the present deal should be the
crowning triumph of his speculative
career and that, with it once conclud-
ed, he would drop markets And stocks
and devote himself to his automobile.
For this reason he is said to be ma
neuvering carefully and wishes to
steady the market now, because a pre-
mature advance would make possible
large importations from Argentina and
enable the shorts to recuperate.
More than 100000 bushels of Argen
tine wheat entered the local market
this week. The price of May wheat
closed at 81 1875 to-day.

HEALTH IS
IMPAIRED
Special Dispatch to The Cali.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Feb. 17.-
Owing to the feeble health of Cardinal
Gibbons, who arrived here this morn
ing, every precaution is being taken
TO guard him against fatigue. The
Cardinal has just completed several
months hard work. He is almost ex-
hausted and probably will not leave his
brothers house during the ten days he
remains here.
In order that Cardinal Gibbons may
meet Catholic clergy of this State with
out further fatigue, a chapel, elabor-
ately decorated, has been erected in the
front yard Of his brothers home. where
the head of the Catholic church in
America will say mass every morning
during his stay. 1t is not likely that
he will be able to visit any of the
churches in the city.
Cardinal Gibbons came to visit his
brother, John 7. Gibbons. He was ac-
companied by five clergymen and ex-
poets TO remain in New Orleans about
ten days.

MONTE
CARLO At
CATALINA
Special Dispatch to III. can.

NEW YORK, Feb. l7.-Armed, they
declare, with full concessions, Joe"
Uliman and "Maxey'' Blumenthal,
both well known in the sporting
Hcrld, have left this city for Los An
geles to complete their plans for the
establishment of an American Monte
Carol on Santa Catalina Island.
In this year round" resort, they
have told their friends. they intend to
lay out parks and build casinos, the
like Of which have never been seen in
the Western hemisphere. There, un-
troubled by laws of any kind, they
say, they will afford every person that
cares TO an opportunity to play against
any game Of chance, ancient or mod
ern, for any sum that may be named.
Before leaving they said that every
thing was SO well arranged that al
most their first task would be to take
over TO the island landscape architects
and engineers, who would select for
them a site large enough to answer
their purpose. These chosen, archi-
tects. builders and gardeners will be
employed to carry out the plans.
Both Blumenthal and Ullman are
known as daring bettors, not alone on
race tracks, but in various clubs with
which both have been connected.
Tllnan was known for several seasons
as the bookmaker willing to accept the
largest wagers offered at a track Re-
pcrts of s25, 600 bets made by John w.
Gates and "Pittsburg Phil' were free
~ circulated two years ago at Sara
toga- Last year a published account
said there had been only a slight de-
crease in the amounts. That the two
men have obtained a foothold on
Santa Catalina comes as surprise to
sporting men in this city.

W0RKMEN IN TROUBLE.
Disclaim Delegates Sent to Gear Say

st. Petersburg. Feb. 7.-Workmen to
the number of 1000 in the car shops
here have drawn up a manifesto dis
claiming the delegates who were put
forward as representing them in the
deputation which visited Emperor
Nicholas at Tzarskoi Selo on Wednes-
day, February 1. They assert that
these men We're selected by the en-
ployers, and We're not representatives
of the workmen. The employees of one
or two other factories may follow suit,
but the workmen in general are in
clined to stand by the deputation.
Y There We're a few slight collisions be-
tween Lessner's workmen and the po-
lice guarding the factory today. Po-
land, however, continues to be the
storm center of the disturbances.
Though the strike has ceased in some
establishments, it has assumed a more

WASHINGTON ALL AeoG.
Circumstances Cause Rumors that a

Washington, Feb. S.-Because Brit
ish Ambassador Durand, in response
to an invitation from the president, ac-
companied the first secretary of the.
British embassy at st. Petersburg to
the White House last night for an in
formal chat, the diplomatic crops was
agog today over the supposed signi-
ficance of the conference. An early
caller at the state department today
was the Japanese minister, who spent
some time with Secretary Hay.
The ~hesitancy with which the minis
ter replied to a question as to whether
peace proposals We're in the air con-
tributed to the suspicious already afloat
that this government was contemplate
ing q step toward intervention.
Later in the day came Russian Am
bassador Cassini, who received the
most positive and categorical assur-
nee that this government was not
exchanging any ideas with any gov
eminent regarding the ending of he
war, and that the conference at the
White House was without political
significance.
1t stated very positively that, how
ever wide the range of conversation
last night, and it naturally did include
the situation in Russia, the object of
the visit was entirely without political
purpose or result.

NEW WAR CLOUD APPEARS.
England and Germany Ready to Fly at
Each Others Threats.

EaCn oInSTS lnTOdIS.
Chicago, Feb. s.-The Washington
telegraphed the following to his news
paper last night:
"a far more serious stage has been
reached in the relations of Great Britain
and Germany than the world generally
realizes. For the first time, it may be
stated, whatever official declaration
may be made from Londan and Berlin,
the recent distribution of the British
navy was directly inspired by the fear
that. Germany was in a position to
.aunch practically its entire fleet against
the British channel squadron, destroy it
and begin preparation for a plan of in
vasion of England III case the london
government went to war with Russia
over the Dogger bank incident.
Following the destruction of the Brit
| lsh trawlers by the Russian Pacific
squadron under Vice Admiral Rojest-
vensky in the North sea, orders were
issued by the German minister of ma
rine for the immediate mobilization of
all men of val in home waters. The
British government responded by re-
calling four battleships at full speed
from the Mediterranean squadron and
assigning them to the channel fleet.
This was followed by the redistribution
of the British navy which has resulted
in Strengthening the channel squadron
and a better strategical disposition of
British men of var generally.
Z The German government assumed to
take offense at what it claimed was a
war-Iike movement directed against it,
and refused shore leave during the
Christmas holidays to the officers and
| men of its fleet. This is grave news
n it is given in order to show what
the world does not know-that the re-
lations existing between Great Britain
and Germany are less friendly than is
believed. The German people have
ceased to begrudge the lavish expendi-
lures of money for the increase of Their
navy. Only a few weeks ago the reich,
stag voted a program OF construction I'd
cover a period of ten years to cost $500,
4 600. 600. ~

Fatal Result of a Friendly ScuffIe with

Sioux Falls, s. d, L'eh. 2.-Peter Duff
fy, Il well known young man whose
home is in this city, was the victim OF a
peculiar accident while engaged In "a
friendly scuffle with IN acquaintance.
AS the result of the accident, he lies
at the point of death at the home Of
his mother.
With a number of other young men,
Duffy and a friend named Clint Strahon
We're in a local cigar and pool hail. At
ter some bantering they engaged in Il
scufile, during which Strahon got one
Of his arms around Duffy's neck.
In am effort to break loose Duffy made
n quick turn and twist. simultaneously
with8fhe movement there was a snap
ping sound, and, to the horror of those
who were watching the friendly Wrest-
ling bout, the unfortunate young man
fell to the loor in the greatest agony.
Physicians who were summoned state
that the spine where it connects with
the brain was injured. 1t appears that
Duffy had been subject to attacks of
spinal meningitis when young, and it
is thought these may have weakened
that part Of his body which was injured
durin" the scufIle.
The physicians are doing everything
possible to ave the life Of the young
man, but hold out no encouragement as
to his recovery.

HARBoR is ALMOST CLOSED.
Situation at New York, Because of Ice,
Becomes Very Difficult,


New York, Feb. lice foes complete
ly filled New York harbor today, render
Ing the passage of vessels into and out Of
the port slow and difficult. In the Mar
row the ice pack was so dense that even
the poWerful liners had
trouble in forcing a passage.
One of the serious results of the presence
of a vast foe in the lower bay during
the past four days has been the breaking
and carrying away of great number of
spars and can buoys in the various ship
channels. Captains of coastwise steamers
and Sandy Hook pilots have reported a
number of narrow escapes from grounding
caused by the displacement of buoys.
Captain Shepard, of the lighthouse board,
said that the displacement of buoys by
ice during the week was unprecedented in
the history of the department and that
the condition of navigation into and out
of the port is the most dangerous that
has ever existed.
All the steamers of the sound fleet ar
rived safely today, although several hours
late. Their captains reported that heavy
ice was encountered throughout the
sound and that navigation was barely
possible. On several occasions the feet of
New York bound teamers were compelled
to unite and attack the ice in a wedge
formation. Owing to q change in the wind
the North and East rivers were compare
lively clear of ice during the day and the
ferries were operated with little inter-
ruption,
