TO ExPEL STRIKERS

BY Associated Press.
WARSAW, Feb. 12.-Baron Won Mol
ken, chief of police of Warsaw, who
has just returned from conference
with Governor General Tchertkoff of
the province of Warsaw, today gave
out the following details regarding the
state of affairs in this district:
THE strike continues in all of the
big factories. Tomorrow the manufac-
situation and Tuesday purpose seeing
some representatives of the strikers.
"Unless the strikers return to work
the police will expel all of those living
outside of the Warsaw district. If
they will not work they must go home.
impossible that the strike can continue
much longer.
. "Our task is one of great difficulty.
We are not fighting an economic, but a
political movement having it's origin
in st. Petersburg.
"The worst troubles, however,, are
probably over. Small disturbances
may break out here and there but not
on such a scale as the earlier riots" {"
Private kilograms received from
Dombrova say that all the factories
there are closed. Thirty thousand
wagon loads of ore are standing on the
railway tracks and the freight traffic
of the Vistula line must be suspended
unless the wagons are removed.
The coal supply is the most urgent
question in Warsaw since the Sosnovice
strike began. Governor General
Tchertkoff today received a telegram
from Emperor Nicholas permitting him
to import coal free of duty from Silesia
for a fortnight.
A telephone message received from
Lodz says that all is quiet Tut that the
manufacturers are confident that the
strikers have no intention to work Mon
day.

NEARLY LOST IN
A FURIOUS GALE
BARK REACHES SAN PEDRO A
BATTERED HULK
The HolIisWood Meets with Hurri-
cane, Loses Mainmast and
Foremost and All but
. Founders

Special to The Herald.
SAN PEDRO, Feb. 12.-The bark
Holliswood, Captain Burke, twenty
two days from San Francisco, put into
port this morning in a badly disabled
condition. ,.
On February the vessel was struck
by a furious storm, which carried
away both her mainmast and foremast
and drove her many miles from her
course. She narrowly escaped being
lost with all on board. 1t was with
difficulty that the storm-battered craft
was able to make this port.
All last night a gale of wind was
blowing and heavy seas have been
running all day. The Holliswood was
sighted this morning, endeavoring to
make her way in with only her mizzen-
mast standing. The Warrior went out
and tried to render the struggling
craft some assistance but was power
less on account of the high seas. At
length, however, the bark reached the
outer harbor unaided and dropped
anchor.
The Holliswood is bound for New
York with a cargo of asphalt. She Wis
tied this port just about one year ago.

OHIO RIVER ON RAM PAGE
Great Damage Done by Breaking of
Ice Gorge at Cincinnati
By Associated Press.

by AsSOCldIeu iTess.
CINCINNATI, Feb. 12.-Half a
million dollars worth of river property
was placed in Jeopardy, one steamer
carried down the river in the ice, one
hundred and fifty barges torn loose
and sent down the river and several
other steamers seriously damaged to-
day from the breakup of the Ice
gorges at this point in the Ohio river.
The steamer New South, one of the
best. boats on the river, was torn from
her moorings and carried down the river
in the ice. She is lodged in the ice
pack and may prove a total loss.
A rise of ten feet in the river, which
occurred during the day by the re-
gorging of ice at some point farther
down, forced the steamer Bonanza out
of the water on shore near the foot of
Main street, where she is in bad
position.
At least $50 barges, some loaded with
coal, were caught in the ice and have
gone down the river, probably all be-
ing a total loss.

A|RSH|P BEATS
AN AUTOMOBILE
ARROW IS SPEEDlER THAN
TOURING CAR
MAKES SUCCESSFUL FLIGHT
knabenshoe in Sky Yacht Defeats
Captain Baldwin In Race
from Chutes Park to
Pasadena

The trim sky yacht, California Ar
row, in charge of Roy Knabenshue
raced an automobile carrying Capt
Baldwin from Chutes park to Pasadena
yesterday afternoon, the Arrow cover
ing the distance of ten miles in thirty
minutes and winning from the auto
by two minutes.
Since the clean lined little airship
has been in Los Angeles, interest in
her and in aerial navigation has been
steadily increasing, and the largest
crowd on record assembled at the park
and on the neighboring streets to wit
ness the flight.
Some time before the time set for
the start the ball park was filled with
a throng of 1000, thousands more jos
tied each other in the Chutes, while
sidewalks surrounding the grounds
were crowded and standing room was
at a premium even in vacant lots in
the vicinity.
Makes True Flight
The little ship rose easily and grace
fully and when an altitude of 500 feet
had been attained the rudder swung
slightly to port and as straight as her
name would indicate the Arrow flew
away to the northward.
The day was hazy and the sky yacht
disappeared about ten minutes after
the mooring lines had been cast off,
but for many minutes more thousands
Of eyes eagerly searched the heavens
in an endeavor to catch glimpse of
the ship.
1t was originally intended that the
Arrow should Immediately return from
Pasadena to her anchorage in the
Chutes, and the throng waited until
movement to disperse began. Even
those occupying the sidewalks and va
cant lots kept watch for the return of
the ship.
Several false alarms created consfd-
cradle excitement. A large kite which
some boy in East Los Angeles was fly
ing created several fiurries of enthu-
siasm, for in the gathering dusk it re-
sembled the Arrow approaching; at
least it did to the excited watchers.
Finally this kite got into trouble
and was seen to be wildly circling and
careening in the air and then to make
a mad rush earthward.
Fear for Aeronaut
A cry of dismay went up from the
eager watchers and those with field
glasses declared they could see the dar-
ing aeronaut clinging to the frame of
his doomed ship, and excitement ran
high until the automobile returned and
it was announced that the Arrow was
safely anchored in Pasadena and that
Knabenshoe was even then proba bly,
enjoying a good dinner at the Raymond
hotel.
The start was delayed and shortly
after the Arrow left her anchorage it
turned cold. Before reaching his des-
tination Knabenshue encountered a
heavy cold wind, which not only caused
the gas in the machine to condense, but
caused the sky chauffeur considerable
suffering.
On account of the heavy wind gas
had to be let out of the bag in order
to effect landing, and it was not pos
sible for the ship to fly back to Los
Angeles.
