FAIL TO SETTLE
CHICAGO STRIKE

CHICAGO, April 11.-Offering to ar
bitrate everything in connection with
the Montgomery-W Ward strike, with the
exception of garment workers griev-
ances, a committee of the Commercial
Exchange, an organization of Chicago
employers, deadlocked with representa-
tives of the Chicago Federation of La
Dor and the joint teamsters' union at
the Grand Pacific. Hotel this afternoon.
The meeting adjourned with no peace
in sight.
The Union Labor committee, fresh
from a conference with Mayor Dunno,
set forth emphatically that the team
sters were out in sympathy with the
garment workers only and that IL the
grievances of the garment workers
were not to be considered there was
nothing to arbftrate.
1t was charged that the Wholesale
Tailor Manufacturing Association had
entered into conspiracy to bring back
former sweatshop conditions among
the garment workers. and that the con-
spiracy had been started in New York,
Rochester and Philadelphia and was
being pushed here in Chicago.
Another conference Will be held to-
morrow. Neither side apeared hope
full of results making for peace

Judge Hall Congratulated.

OAKLAND, April 11.-Judge S. P
Hall, who has been appointed TO the
District Court of Appeals by Governor
George c. Pardee, was the subject Of
congratulation by many friends who
crowded into his chambers at the
Courthouse here to-day to express
their good wishes. He is pleased with
the appointment himself and showed
by his talk that he appreciated the
honor.
In speaking of his new position ne
said: Il appreciate this honor be-
cause IT came to me unsolicited. We
five Judges in the Governors home
county agreed to make no fight for
the position, but to allow our names
to go before him without Endorsement
of any kind and we all stuck to our
agreement. Coming in the way 1t has,
1 am delighted
There was some question whether
the appointment had not disqualified
Judge Hall from proceeding with the
hearing of a case before him and 1t
was continued to-day until the matter
could be looked into. BY a stipula-
ton, however, it was agreed that ne
should finish the hearing tomorrow
and the case will proceed until fin
ished before him.

TELLS OF DISCOVERIES.

BERKELEY, April 11.-Professor
c. D. Perrine. the astronomer at Lick
Observatory, who discovered the sixth
and seventh satellites of Jupiter, lee
tured tonight at the students OBJ
servatory of the University of Cali
fornia on his notable astro-
nomical work. Professor Perrine ex-
planned the methods employed in
the discovery, in searching for the
satellites and verifying the work. The
value consisted not in the novelty of
the discovery, but in the splendid
data obtained TO carry on astronomi-
cal Investigations, said the lecturer.
The satellites were, at one time, part
of planetary systems, continued Pro-
fessor Perrine.
The discovery was not an accident
but the result of systematic research.
It could not have been accomplished
before the Crossley reflector was in
stalled last November at Lick Obser-
vatory. The satellites were found
by photography. Night after night
successive plates were made of the re-
gion about Jupiter, careful COMPARE
sons of the negatives being made to-
gether with careful and elaborate
mathematical demonstrations. The
diameter of the sixth satellite is about
100 miles. that of the seventh being
less than thirty-five miles. Professor
Perrine illustrated his lecture with
stereopticon slides.

Festal Board and Rejoice

BERKELEY, April 11.-A banquet
prepared for the successful candidates
at the election yesterday was held to-
night in West Berkeley, all the new Of

members Of the Republican City Cen
trail Committee. Short speeches were
made by each of the men who are to

responsible for all details of the affair.
Gus Vollmer. the new Marshal, who
succeeds T. Kerns, will probably be
given the powers and equipment of a
Chief of Police, the Trustees Of the

least number Of the deputies. Vollmer
has seen service with the American
army in the Philippines, but is without
experience in a constabulary depart
ment. He has been In the local post
Office service for several YEARS. He said
to-day that 1t would be impossible for
him to announce at this time who will
be his deputies.
There are now three of these depu-
ties-W. B. Pickett, Burt Howard and
Thomas Carey. They receive a salary
of $40 month. Deputy Howard acts
also as license collector. 1t Is expected
that at least five more deputies will be
appointed by the Board Of Town Trus-
tees after Vollmer takes Office. when an
attempt will be made to rid the town
of undesirable elements and to prompt
ly punish laW-breakerS
Mayor Rickard Trustee from the
Second Ward, is found to have won his
seat by six votes, his opponent, John
Hinkle, having made the most strenu-
Gus fight of any Non-Partisan candi-
date.
w. E. Knowles, a Republican School
Director, gives place to Professor E. p.
Lewis, the latter's majority being 53.
With the exception of these two men
all the Republican candidates were
elected by decisive majorities.
