 lowed to Go Over to November 6.

London. Nov. -2-The prospect that the president of the board of trade. Lloyd George. may be able to avert general strike by arranging a com promise was brighter today. \ fuli meeting of the executive committee of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants was held this morning. and it was decided to postpone all action on yesterdays resolution in favor of a strike.
 After conference tO take place with George on November s. to which he in vited the society to send representa- tives it is Georges plan to form a per manent board of coneiliation with an equal representation of the companies and the men. with an independent chairman The railroad directors are willing but the men may not be. in view of the fact that they are demand ing a recognition of the union and di- rect dealings between the men and the managers of the roads Public feeling is strong against the strike.

GOV. eiLLETTE's STATEMENT.

San Francisco. Nov. 2-The follow ing statement was issued tonight by Governor Gillett: "The governor states that he met this afternoon with the clearing house board. the president of the state bankers association and rep resentatives of some of the savings banks of San Francisco and discussed fully with them the financial conditions -larly in California.
 "The unanimous opinion of all was that it was necessary in order to pro- tect the financial. commercial and in dustrial interests of the state that le- gal holidays be declared from day to day for a short time longer. until mat ters in the east have reached normal condition. Large balances are due the west from the east, which the bankers there are only willing to liquidate with clearing house receipts, because of the scarcity of money. but large sums are arriving from Europe and other sources. and this condition will soon be removed and the balances due Cal ifornia will be paid in coin. which will relieve the stringency in the money market here and restore normal condi- tions once more.
 'The state was never in a more pros porous condition than at present. There is no cause for alarm. If our people will only have little patience the unusual unexpected conditions existing today will soon right themselves and business will move along in the usual way"

Tilt ACTOR HITCHCOCK
 SILL IS MISSING
The Detectives Have Followed in Vain
 All Possible Cie..s.

New York, Nov. .-Notwithstand- ing the active efforts of detectives of the district attorney's office and of the police department. no tract has been found of Raymond Hitchcock. the missing actor. The witnesses be- ing held in custody to testify con corning the charges against him are several young girls. Innumerable clues indicating that Hitchcock is on his way to Europe. or is in New York disguised, have been investigated to no effect. Detectives everywhere are on the watch for him.
 The mystery has been increased by the sudden disappearance also of the actors valet, Herman Ranke, who played minor parts. Detectives were unable to find Ranke last night at the theater. His place was filled by a substitute.

NEW YORK SUMMING UP
 OF THE FINANCIAL STATE
The Men of the Banks Believe the Situa-
 tiOn is Under Control
The Gold Which is Now On the Ocean Will This Week Restore the Cash Reserve In the Metropolis to Its Usual Strength.

New York, Nov. 2-The financial week came to a close today without any notable deveIopments. The stock exchange was comparatively steady with little activity. Runs upon bank ing house seem to be practically at an end and few important conferences are held by financiers.
 The decline in the reserves of the clearing house banks were heavier than under recent experience. but 1t will be largely offset by the arrival of gold next week. The apparent loss in reserve is about s37.OOO.OOO, but ST. 00O, 900 of this is due to the require ment of 25 per cent. against an in crease in deposits of s2s.000.000. This increase in deposits in the clearing house banks apparently represents a transfer of funds from institutions which have been subject to runs. The actual loss is about s30,000. 900. which reduced the reserve on hand to about s225.OO0.00O. -t.
 The gold engagements were increas- ed slightly today by orders from Pitts burg and other points, making the to- tai engagement to date $29, ,150.000. If all these amounts should go into the reserves of the clearing house banks. it would practically restore their sup ply of cash during the past week.
 Even the diversion of a part of the amount to other cities will leave the bulk of the gold arrival to New York banks. and probably result in an in crease of the reserve next week
 A part of the. decline in cash in the face of heavy deposits of treasury funds has been due to calls of the country banks for currency. It is be- lieved that these have been pretty
 largely met, and the amount will not be nearly as large during the coming week.
 i Reports from various parts of the country indicate that system of meeting pay rolls by checks instead of currency is generally in force. William A. Nash. president of the Corn E,Xchane Bank, and a member of the clearing house, said in explana- tion today of the bank statement. that the clearing house banks had been talk ing over the loans called by trust companies and this has increased the bank loans Nash added. The trust companies have increased their de- posits in the banks. The total depos- its have thus been increased without any addition to the stock of cash. and naturally the per centage of the re- serve has fallen I don't regard this as significant because the increase of deposits by the trust companies is payable not in cash, but in clearing house funds. Changes in the loans and deposit reserve are so much in the nature book keeping that they should not affect the present situation. The real matter in the bank statement is the supply of cash. The losses during the week are not greater than I ex- pected.
 shipments to the interior and hoarding currency account for the losses reported. I believe from now i on there will be an improvement. Cur

A MURDER Al PRESCOTT
 BY A HOTtL ROBBtR
A Man With Knife Terrified Guests and Cut One 10 Pieces.

Prescott, Nov. As a result of a series of hotel robberies early this Nmorning. Robert Lutley lies dying and a score more hotel guests mourn the loss of valuables. The burglar first entered the Schuerman hotel. where he was grappled with by Lutley whom he cut to pieces, and then fled. Ten minutes later, the same man entered the Brinkmeyer hotel and with the same knife compelled various roomers to yield their belongings. The Head. Cliff and Globe hotels were also visit ed in the same manner. No arrests have been made.
 The robber first entered the room of Fred Thompson at the Globe hotel. where he awoke the latter and showed the knife against his throat and ask ed for money. Finding only 50 cents he left the building and next entered the Cliff and Head hotels. securing not more than two dollars from both places. Then he went to the Schuer- man hotel and entered the room of Lutley, who awoke and put uD d fight The robber slashed him across the face from the forehead to the chin and across the jaws from ear to ear. stabbed him in the. lungs and abdo- men and then fled without securing any booty.

The Leaders On All the Tickets Are Con.
 fident of Election
Each Claims the Votes of Nearly All -Of His Own Faction and Large Bulk of Those of the Others.

San Francisco, Nov. 2.-Issues of far more importance than have commonly been involved in municipal elections will come before the voters of San Francisco for decision next Tuesday.
 Behind the leading names of the several party tickets are the surviv- al of the so-called bribery graft pros ecution as conducted against indicted corporation officials. by Francis J. He ney, and the confirmation or rejection by the voting majority of the new or der of things which has followed the overthrow of the Ruef-Schmitz regime and the busting from office of the bribed board of supervisors.
 Though there are thirty-two offices to be filled b.. the election, all but two Of them, the magor and district attorney, are of subordinate public in- terest. For mayor the regular repub- lican organization nominated Daniel A. Ryan, a young and active member of the bar. The democrats and Good Government League have fused on the present incumbent, pr. Edward R. Taylor, and the Union Labor party has named P. H. McCarthy.
 District Attorney William J. Lang don, who appointed Heney to conduct the bribery graft prosecution, goes before the people on three nominations by the republicans, the democrats and the good government league. The opponents of the union labor party's nominee IS Frank McGowan. formerly assemblyman and state senator. The total registration IS 77,OO0 and it is estimated that the vote cast will ap- proximate 55,000.
 This is the way the five chief can ,didates have sized up their own chances. in statements dictated by them tonight: Mayor Taylor: "I shall be elected by a very large plurality. The ticket which head has on it dem ocrats, republicans and union labor men, and is in its personnel the best ticket that has been placed before the voters of this city for years. I sincere ly trust that ever- man on the ticket with me will be elected. The city owes the deepest debt of gratitude to William H. Langdon under whose ad ministration the present prosecutions are being carried forward"
 Had it not been for his conduct as district attorney, San Francisco today
 
 Schmitz and Ruef I therefore am most heartily in favor of Langdon."
 Daniel A. Ryan. republican nominee for mayor: "I am satisfied that I will be elected The people of san Fran cisco know it is necessary to get away from class fights. It is believed that the democratic and so-called Good Government forces represent the mon-
 N-n- party is not truly representative of la Dor, but of certain politicians and also corporate interests. The republican ticket is clear of the pretudices which naturally exist in the two other camps. It holds out to the people a safe, con- servative, middle course as against the radicalism of the other two. It is free from all bitterness engendered by
Arizona republican., 1907-11-03

the contending extremes. l am will ing to venture the following estimates of the total vote of 57.000. There will be cast for me 23,O00; for Mccarthy, l7,O00; for Taylor, l5.0OO; for Reguin tsocialist). 2.OOO"
 Patrick H. Mccarthy, union labor nominee for mayor: 'I believe now that l will get more votes than will be cast for Taylor and Ryan combined. Of the 55.000 to 5000 votes to be ex- pected I feel confident that 3O.0O0 or possibly 35,OO0 will be for me. My friends. the enemy, can have the oth- CTS. They are welcome to them. I can afford to stand some knifing within my own party. The actual labor vote is. on account of the disturbed condi- tions. difficult to determine, but it may be safely set down as not far from 3Gcoo. l will get the big bulk of it and plenty besides"
 District Attorney Langden: The district attorneys campaign for re- election has been strictly non-partisan, 1 having been nominated on the re- publican, democratic, and good govern ment tickets. I feel confident that if the election were held tomorrow would be elected by an overwhelming majority. Two years ago I received 10000 votes. l know of no reason why l should lose single vote. It is true I have antagOnized powerful interests in the community, but on the other hand. those who stand fof. decency. honesty and for a fair and just ad- ministration of the laws have rallied to my support by thousands
 While certain factions in the three parties win not support me. those lose will be offset by the backing I will get from tte ranks of labor. Ii is evident that there will be few straight union labor votes cast My knowledge of the men of that party convinces me that 50 per cent Of their votes will be for me. confidently expect that of the s5O.0oO votes I will get at !east :AO,OOO"
 F. McCowan. union labor nominee for district attorney: 'I will get prac- tically. the solid union labor vote. I'll get the votes of many personal friends in the republican party and a large number of democrats who are incens- ca ,at Langdon for his defeat of Bells candidack for governor. The votes of the brsiress -,en viii be with me. be- cause they charge that the bribery graft prosecution has been. and is be- ing conducted for political purposes, and the disturbance of business inter- ests. My plurality will be sufficiently large to ,ea"e TO do-bt of the result and to loose the grasp of MT. Heney on the Spreckels millions. I estimate that my plurality will be between 4O00 and -COO"

JIM FLYNN
 OUTCLASSED In His Fight With Jack
 Johnson
The End Came In the Form of a Knockout In the Eleventh.

Colma Arena, San Francisco, Nov. ?. You're a clever nigger," were the last words uttered by Jim Flynn, the Colorado fireman, in the scheduled forty-five round contest with Jack Johnson, the colored heavyweight, at Colma this afternoon. A straight right flush to the jaw cut off further speech. Flynn toppled to the floor completely knocked out. The finishing blow was delivered in the eleventh round. It took fully four minutes to resuscitate the defeated pugilist.
 Throughout the contest Johnson played with his antagonist as a ter rier would with a rat. In the initial round he practically closed Hymns left eye, and thereafter made it the target for his unerring left jabs. John son landed at will on his man, and seemed to have the contest well in hand at all stages. He left the ring without a mark. Only once did he re- ceive a telling blow from his opponent. This was in the ninth round, when one of Flynns wild s~ings found a resting place on the colored mans stomach. Flynn would constantly rush into close quarters, but invariably he failed to land. In nearly every in stance Johnson retaliated with right and left swings on the head or jaw.
 The beginning of the end came in the tenth round. Near the end of the round Flynn slipped on the mat from the impetus of q misdirected punch. He was up quickly and as he rushed in Johnson clipped him in the pit of the stomach with short arm right uppercut. Flynn dropped to the floor and was carried to his corner. the clang of the gong giving nim a tenn porary respite. In the eleventh round Johnson was forcing him to close quarters Then Johnson backing, shot wicked straight right flush on the jaw of Flynn, who sank to the floor utterly helpless and completely knocked out.
 Billy Roche. the referee, after the contest said Johnson is the best man and outclassed Flynn in every depart ment of the boxing game. Flynn Is. however. deserving of nucn credit for his gameness. The result would have been the same whether rlynn's eye was closed or not. Johnson is easily the best man of his class today" Johnson. after shaking hands with his defeated opponent. said to the news paper men: "I knew I had him after closed his eye. He is a game little boy. but too small for this class. think I have demonstrated to the world that I am not afraid. I challenge any one to find yellow in me. Tommy Burns is my next man; l stand ready to fight him any time"
 !. Flynn said. "The bes, man won. Ali can say is I warn the next man that is matched with Johnson that he is a great man. I was entirely outclassed. did my best however. and would like 10 show myself before the same crowd with a man of my class. Beyond h's cleverness he is miles too big for me to handle"
 Arrangements will be at once made , to match Johnson and Tommy Burns for the worlds heavyweight champion ship. The attendance was very large and many women were scattered about the arena. The receipts were E0O0.
