SITUATION is CONSIDERED MORE
SERIOUS
TeIeqraphers Refuse the Concessions
Framed by National Committee.
cIowry Denies Any Advance
Has Been Offered

BY Associated Press
OAKLAND, July 1S.-It was day OF
activity in the ranks of the striking
telegra pliers at Oakland.
There were committees appointed ana
many impromptu consultations held, and
during the afternoon several operators
waited on the three members of the exec
utve committee NJ. ]. Reidy, S. j. Kon-
enkamp and j. NJ. Sullivan. but abso-
lutte silence was maintained as to the
meeting or trend of the discussions.
1t was evident from the bearing of the
conferees that the situation was consfd-
cred serious and there were hints of in
creasing friction among the leaders of
the strikers.
The executive committee men came in
for severe criticism on account of it's
reported remarks deprecating the calling
of the strike and its apparent lack of
sympathy for the local operators.
It has been rumored persistently for the
past few days that there was a serious
split between President Small and his
executive committee men.
Refuse Concessions
The telegraphers after their meeting
this morning reported that they had re-
fused to accept the concessions as framed
by their national executive committee.
These concessions, they stated, lncluueo
an offer of a % per cent increase in pay
on the part of the Western Union and
the acceptance of all but three of the
strikers in their old places.
The Postal, they said, had offered to
take back so per cent.
Superintendent Miller today denied that
his company had offered any concessions
or that it had changed its position in any
way.
President Small wired the result of the
meeting to Chicago. but would not say
what its effect would be and whether he
would go east.

AMERICAN OFFICER NOT
ALLOWED IN SHIPYARD
Lieutenant Commander Howard Re-
fused Privilege of Inspection

BERLIN, July 1S.-Lieut. Commander
w. L. Howard, the naval attache of the
American embassy in Berlin, tried yes
terday to obtain admission to the fam
GUS Schlchau ship yard at Dantzic, where
several big vessels for the kaiser's navy
are under construction, but admission
was refused.
The refusal followed a visit which
Lieut.. Commander Howard had Just
made to the government ship yards at
sDantzic.
Count Won Reventlow, the German
naval expert, explained that the Schi-
chau yards were private property and
the government had no connection what
ever with them, but the action of the
proprietor as regards Lieut.. Commander
Howard was wholly inexplicable because
foreign naval attaches were admitted
: without question TO government yards
The incident, he adds, was wholly de-
void of political significance and was
certain to be viewed unfavorably by the
German naval authorities.
