st. Louis, May 11-Sheriff G. S.
Matthews Of Traverse county, Tex,
has arrived from Austin, Tex, to take
charge OF II. Clay Pierce, chairman of
the board of the Waters-Pierce Oil
company. who surrendered to arrest
Wednesday on a Texas indictment
charging him with having committed
perjury In an affidavit in 1900 con
cerning the oil company.
Immediately after Pierce's arrest a
writ of habeas corpus was secured
from the United States circuit court
on the grounds that Pierce was un-
lawfully being restrained Of his lib
erty. In a statement given out later
by Mr.. Pierce the declaration Is made
that the affidavit was true throughout.
The statement, In part, follows:
"The affidavit does not contain a
statement, nor did the law of Texas
require of foreign corporation such
as the Waters-Pierce Oil company any
statement with respect to who were
its shareholders or who was interested

REFUSE UNION RECOGNITION
Efforts to End Frisco Street Car Strike
Fall

San Francisco, May l1.-Despite the
efforts of the citizens committee the
settlement of the street railroad strike
seems as far off as ever. The United
Railroads officials decline positively
to recognize the Carmen's union on
the ground that 1t went out of exist
ence when the company discharged it's
employees for disobeying the order to
appear for work at the car barns on
Tuesday morning last. This position
taken by the company acts as handi-
cap In any efforts TO bring about a
settlement, the only answer received
from the officials being that they have
nothing to arbitrate and that they pro-
pose to run their cars.
So far the militia has not appeared
upon the scene and 1t is hoped that
the necessity will not arise for calling
upon it,
The police is now showing its abil-
ity to fully cope with the difficulty and
the only question Is as to the force
required to cover the disturbed area,
whether 1t Is numerically strong
enough.

one YEAR IN PRISON
CONVICTED OF CONSPIRACY

to AnnuI the Marriage Of Charles w.
Morse, the Financier, to Mrs. Charles
&. Dodge, a Divorce.
New York, May l1-One year in
state prison and to pay fine OF $500
was the sentence imposed upon Abra-
ham II. Hummel, the lawyer, who was
convicted of conspiracy In the famous
Dodge-Morse divorce case. Hummel
was convicted In the New York state
supreme court several months ago,
but appealed to the appellate division
of that court. The decision was
affirmed by the higher court.
Conspiracy to ans III the marriage Of
Charles w. Morse, the financier, to
Mrs. Charles e. Dodge was the crime
Of which Hummel was convicted. Mrs.
Dodge had secured divorce from her
former husband in 1898. Three years
later she was married to Mr.. Morse
In 1903 Hummel, as counsel for
Dodge, began proceedings to annul the
decree of divorce separating Dodge
and Mrs. Dodge on the ground that
no papers In the case were ever served
on Dodge. He was successful and the
divorce was set aside. but 1t was
learned subsequently that the papers
had been served on Dodge. The de-
cree OF divorce was then reaffirmed
and Mrs. Dodge again became the
wife of Mr. Morse.

COAST LINES COMPROMISE
Partial Scrriemcn. OF Lonasnoremen's
StrsSe.


Strike.
New Ycsk, May 1.-THE longshore-
mems strike, so far as 1t concerns the
transatlantic lines, gives promise of
lasting some time and being q fight to
a finish The strike against the coast
wise lines Is settled The settlement
was a partial victory for the men, for
its basis was compromise. But the
deepwater steamer companies take the
ground more determinedly than ever
that the strikers demands are utterly
unreasonable and that there can be
no settlement SO long as the men per-
sist In them.
Evidence Of the present temper Of
these managements Is found In an In
teryiew given by Emil Boas, agent of
the Hamburg-American line, and In a
report at the American and Red Star
line Offices that cots were being put
into the second story of the American
line shed for tho accommodation Of
strikebreakerH.
Whatever the attitude of and con-
tentions of the parties to the dispute
the congestion Of freight Is becoming
enormous and the commerce Of the
port of New York Is being endangered.
Instances of the criprling effect Of the
strike are becoming numerous. One
steamer which got away during the
day carried insufficient coal In her
bunkers, 1t Is said, to carry her to
Naples and she will have to run down
to Philadelphia to have her bunkers
flied. Another, freighter which plies
between here and Mediterranean
ports, had brought over tons of cases
Of Italian wines. She sailed for Italy
again carrying more than half of her
cargo back.
