BALTIC STILL AGROUND

NEW YORK. May 9.-Passengers VINO de-
parted for Europe on the White Star liner
Baltic yesterday afternoon were doomed to
spend dismal day in the rain and fog of
the tip Of Sandy Hook today with the
steamers bow buried in the mud. The
Baltic went out Of her course in the fog on
her way seward late yesterday afternoon,
just as she should have made the turn
from the main ship channel into Gedney's
channel leading across Sandy Hook bar.
AS she went aground almost at high water
the task of getting her afloat again Is a
difficult one. Four tugs hitched lines to
her bow at the top Of the tide this morn
ing and strained for an hour in the effort
to pull her OFF. Although they managed
to move her few feet 1t was not sufficient
to put water under her keel and the re-
ceding tide left her still stranded. Another
attempt will be made at the next high tide
about pm, to float the Baltic.

NOT PREPARED TO COMMENT.
Commissioners Decline to Discuss the
Report.

In preparing his report on conditions
OF administration in the District, printed
in another column Of The Star, Mr.. Rey-
nolds was extended considerable assistance
by the Commissioners. He called at the Dis
trict building a number Of times, and went
over with each Commissioner the detail
of the departments under his individual
supervision. During these conferences the
Commissioners not only answered every
question, but they made suggestions that
they are satisfied have proved valuable to
Mr.. Reynolds in making up his report He
in turn expressed his views to the Commits
sioners and read parts of his report to
them.
Although the Commissioners are familiar
with a greater part of the contents Of the
report they have not read it in it's final and
complete form, and because of this they re-
fused to offer an expression of opinion upon
the recommendations made by Mr.. Reynolds
when they were interviewed upon the sub
ject today by q Star reporter.
Commissioner mcfarland said that he
will read the report thoroughly before VEN
turing any remark in connection with 1t.
In declining to be interviewed Commits
sioners West ana Morrow gave the same
excuse. However, both Commissioners Mac
farland and West stated that the idea of
governor or some other one head for the
local government has, many arguments In
its favor, while number of heads such as
a board Of commissioners likewise has it's
good points.

QUIET NOW IN SAN FRANCISCO

NEW YORK, May 9-The position OF the
steamship companies affected by the strike
of longshoremen appears to be growing
steadily more serious. The strikers have
not yet shown any sign of weakening, and
the task of loading and unloading ships is
becoming more and more difficult AS a
result freight is not being moved and the
piers are becoming congested with mer-
chandise awaiting shipment. The lengths
to which the steamship companies have been
driven In their efforts to get their ships,
away on time was well illustrated today in
the case of the Oscar II of the Scandinavia
an-American line. The Oscar II is due to
sail this afternoon, and 1t is expected that
she will leave her pier on time. In order
that the passengers might not be inconven-
fenced by delay the operating officials OF
the line have been at work day and night
to get her inbound cargo out and some OF
the outward freight into her holds.
Cast Lot With Strikers.
None of the regular men were to be had.
as all Of them had cast their lot with the
strikers. but stewards and sailors and even
the wireless telegraph operator on the
steamer were impressed, and every one OF
them today was struggling with boxes, bar
rels and crates. In the meantime scores Of
scrubwomen, gathered up in the city, were
performing the work usually done by the
stewards while the steamer is in port.
The managers for the companies stu
assert that the strikers will have change
of heart and that few days more will see
| the end of the trouble. The companies are
| as firm as ever in their expressed determi-
nation not to accede to any of the demands
made upon them. They willing to bde
| their time, they say, and will be satisfied
with the result.
The strike leaders declare that the hopes
of the companies are not well based. Pat
rick O'Conner, chairman Of the executive
committee of the union, declared today that
in spite of faulty organization the men are
still standing solidly together. He said
also that when the funds now In hand are
exhausted help for the strikers will be
forthcoming from other sources.
Had Full Cargo.
The steamer Grosser Kurfurst OF the
North German Lloyd line sailed today for
Bremen with practically full cargo
The steamship Bluecher of the Hamburg
American Line will sail this afternoon with
her usual cargo. The Bluecher is a pas
senger steamship and her normal cargo is
only two thousand tons. Emil Boas. gen.
eral manager of the line. said today that
while the company had been able to handle
all the business offered this week he would
not prophesy what the company would be
able to do when the larger freight-carrying
steamships had arrived in port with heavy
cargoes.

POLICE IN CONTROL.
Conditions Said to Be on the Mend In
Frisco.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 9.-The local
situation involved by Industrial troubles,
and particularly by the strike of the en-
Moves of the United railroads, which
has already led to serious rioting, looks
more assuring. The police showed today
that they are fully competent to cope
with the mob of strikers and their SYM
pathfzers, and 1t does not appear at all
likely that the aid of the militia will have
to be invoked. The success which altehoea
the efforts of the United railroads to
run cars yesterday will result in an
endeavor to operate cars over the prln.
cipal lines of the system today, and IL
there is no recurrence of the rioting
which attended the previous efforts OF
the company there will be an attempt
made to re-establish the service over the
entire system. A strong force Of police
escorted the two cars run out yesterday
on the 10th avenue line, and any oppo-
sition encountered was speedily sup
pressed by a vigorous use OF clubs. I'M
mediate arrests followed all attempts
at violence by hurting bricks and other
missiles, and the police plainly showed
themselves masters of the situation.
The Town Quieter.
Last night the town was quieter than
ever before in its history. and most of the
principal streets were absolutely deserted.
In the vicinity of the car barns police
patrol was maintained all night, but no at
tempts Of any kind to disturb the peace
were reported. The railroad officials now
have every confidence in the intentions OF
the municipal authorities to maintain their
promise to keep peace and order, and on
their part the non-union men engaged In
running the cars have been dfsarmed. This
understanding will be maintained from this
time forward, so long as the police continue
to afford protection for their lives and the
companys property.
Conciliatory Committee at Work.
In the meantime, the conciliatory commit
tee appointed yesterday, an outgrowth OF
the civic league and the labor council are
strenuously at work trying to settle the
various strikes and to prevent further dis
turbances caused by industrial differences.
The committee of fifty which took charge or
affairs during the recent disaster is again
actively engaged in an attempt TO bring
about peace and meeting will be held
this morning at which the matters
pertaining to the welfare and peace of the
city will be taken up in such sway that
beneficial results will follow.
1t is thought that the telephone strike Is
now. In a fair way to be settled without
much further delay, and this will go far
toward clearing up the general situation.
The other industrial strikes will be con-
sidered today by the conciliatory commit
tee, and there is hope expressed that it's
efforts will be attended with good results.

One Of the Worlds Greatest Generals.
Gen. Baron Tamemoto Kuroki has been a
soldier for nearly fifty years, his eminently
successful leadership in the war between
Japan and Russia placing him among the
worlds greatest generals. His visit to this
country marks the most important recsp-
ton by the United StateR Of military rep
resentatives of the mikado that has ever
taken place. Every courtesy has been
paid to the Distinguished general and party
as the personal representative of the mi
kado, and nothing has been spared in or
der to impress upon the guests of the ma
ton the high place that Japan holds in the
estimation of this country.
At the age of sixteen Gen. Baron Kuroki
was graduated from a private school of
Japan. In that school military training
was a part of the curriculum. although it
was, of course, of a kind that has since
been discarded in favor of modern meth
DDS. Although none of his ancestors at
tanned military prominence in the carrying
of arms, they were trained in the military
