SAN FRANCISCO, May S.-The
proclamation of Mayor Schmitz and
the appeal of the labor councils that
the people refrain from gathering in
the vicinity of the car barns at San
Francisco lad little if any effect upon
the angry and curious mob that has
been watching the progress of the
company's attempt to run cars.
Not deferred by the determination
on the part of the strike breakers to
shoot and kill, a great crowd gather
ed early around the Turk street barn
determined to prevent the running of
the cars
An augmented force Of police was
on hand this morning, including an
auto squad, mounted men and offic-
eIs on foot, armed with riot guns
Union pickets pushed their way
through the crowds, exhorting the
people not to indulge in violence.
Inside the car barns and yards
there was great stir and hustle. The
men preparing to move the cars soor
finished breakfast, and arms and am
unition were passed around to the
crews selected to take out the cars
while those to remain within pre-
pared themselves as if for siege.

A large crowd of hurrahing High

Peerless Pyrotechnic Display.

NORFOLK, Va :, May 6.-There
have been many fierce conflicts upon
the waters of Hampton Roads, but
the fire of belching cannot, and hiss
ing, bursting shells, the dealy combat
between the Monitor and the Merri-
mac in 1862, was nothing compared
with the scene enacted on these his
toric waters on the night of April
16, 1907. The burning of Rome, the
destruction of the cities of Pompeii
and Herculaneum were no doubt
grand, but they were also terrible.
The scene upon Hampton Roads was
grand beyond the power of pen to de-
scribe, while it was absolutely de-
void of the terrible.
Placidly lying at anchor on Hamp-
ton Roads when the sun went down
on the evening of the 26th of April,
were American and foreign war YES
sells, in solid but friendly phalanx,
covering a distance of not less than
ten miles. AS darkness settled over
the face of the waters, few lights
flickered here and there, subdued by
the silvary moonbeams that fell like
a shean upon the land and sea- The
great array of death-dealing, iron
clad monsters were dimly outlined
until at given signel about 1880,
every ship blazed forth in lines of
electric fire. 1t was so sudden and
so grand that the silence of the thou
sands upon the waters and shores at
tested an admiration too deep to be
expressed in word or sound.
There they lay, every outline of
huh and bridge and deck, and funnel
and stock, lined in living fire. Moth
ing like it had ever been seen before,
and outside of the jamestown Ter
Centennial Exposition, will probably
nexer be seen again. With the ships

Discussion Of President Roosevests
remarks on the problem Of moving
crops by development Of water trans
portatioE calls attention to two differ
ent systems of dealing with transpor-
tation in this country. The New Or
leans Picayuue charges the decadence
Of commerce on the Mississippi river to
southern neglect of economics and
points to the greater use of water
transportation in the northern states.
The lakes, the Hudson. the Delaware.

sound, waterways paralle,ed by rail-
ways. are alive with steamboat COM
meTce. Two years ago Stuyvesant
Fish used the example of the Missis-
sippi as an argument for the superior
ity Of the railway management, citing
the fact that while the river traffic de-
clined in ten years nearly 100000 tons
the competing railway traffic increased
over 100000 tons in the same period.
The great Erie canal opened UP and
the hopes Of its projectors until the
railways vanGuished it by competition.
But that was really case of the iron
horse against the towpath motor. The
lakes and rivers put steam against
steam, and, although the speed is SLOW
er on river than on rail. there is an
enormous bulk of slow freight trans
portation, easily handled on boats and
some kinds more safely carried on the
water than on land. The Erie canal is
to be brought back to its original i'm
portance, perhaps, but it will not set
up o menacing competition to the rail
ways, because there is enough business
for the two systems, and the interests
of the shippers will divide it up so that
each system will get its share-that is,
what it can handle best.
Past experience in this country and

the demand is ahead of the supply.
The map of the continent of Europe
presents a network of railways con-
structed within the last twenty-five
years, and yet the governments are
putting millions into canals and the
equalization of rivers These improved
waterways yield revenues to justify
their cost. Our own development of
river and canal systems should not
prove difficult or expensive beyond
warrant. If by this means the rail
ways can be forced to carry freight so
cheaply that canals and rivers shall be
abandoned again after lapse of years,
their development will not have been a
waste in the future any more than was
the case in the past. Regard for pri-
vate railway interests should not de-
prive the people of the boon of cheap
freights.

The illumination of shore and har-
