PRESIDENT WILL
STICK TO HENEY
Refuses to Interfere In Prosecution
Of San Francisco Grafters.
Deep Scheme Is Reported - Calhoun
Said to Be Fomenting Dissension
-Confers With Associates on A.
tempt to Gain Complete Control
in Bay City.

San Francisco, May 23.-Reports
are current that President Calhoun
of the United Railways has engaged
in deep-laid plot to defeat Francis
j. Heney, seize the reins of the mu-
nicipal government under the guise
or law and order movement, and go
any length in order both to save
himself from conviction and impris-
onment under the charges brought
by the graft prosecution, and to the
advantage of himself in his fight
with the carmen.
Calhoun has been working for sew
eral days in a desperate effort to
consolidate in aid of this movement
all the more important financial in
terests affected by the graft disclos-
ures. Men high in financial circles
were seen going in and out of his
office throughout the day and it is
alleged that other conferences were
held in the business center of the
city. 1t is stated that, foiled in their
attempt to get into touch with the
prosecution, through intervention of
the Committee of Seven, Calhoun
and his associates, some of whom
know they are fighting to save them
selves from San Quentin, have
planned a new stroke by which they
hope to place themselves in control
of affairs to such degree that they
will be able to block the efforts of
Spreckels, Burns and Heney.
Their scheme as outlined in these
reports, Is to form new committee
as successor to the one which has
just resigned under fire, which will
be prepared to resort to extreme
measures. Grasping the opportunity
of the carmen's strike and the riots
and disturbances in the streets of the
city, the reported plan is for mass
meeting to be called under the pre-
text of a law and order measure.
From this meeting those who have
been active in the graft prosecution
will be excluded on the ground that
they have already refused to have
anything to do with a committee
which had been appointed to
straighten out the tangle of munich
pal government.
At this meeting a committee on
law and order will be appointed,
which will go first to Chief of Police
Dinan and request his resignation in
the name of the citizens of San Fran
cisco. If Dinan refuses to turn over
the control of the police department
TO them the members Of this COM
mittee will, it is claimed, Immediate
jy declare that the conditions in the
city are so serious that the only solu-
tion is a vigilance committee and,
acting as such, they will assume con-
troll of the city. A part of the plan
is alleged to be an attempt to per-
.suade the governor to act In concert
with this vigilance committee. using
the carmen's strike as an argument
to induce the governor to issue a call
for troops, and possibly to bring
about the intervention of federal au-
tthorities.

CANNOT FINISH CRUISE RS.
Labor Union Troubles in San. Fran
cisco Responsible.

Washington, May 22.-The Union
Iron Works has just given up the
task of completing the cruiser Cali
fornia, as also building the South
Dakota, a cruiser of similar type.
The South Dakota is now 97.4 COM
pleted and work on her is being car
ried on. 1t is regarded at the Navy
Department that, in view Of the
labor troubles, the completion of
these two cruisers marks the end of
naval construction at San Francisco
for some time.
The reports to the Navy Depart
ment from San Francisco show the
California to be 99.6 per cent COM
pleted. All that remains to be done
is little work in the turrets, con-
siderable painting and finishing up
of odds and ends. The California is
sister ship to the West Virginia,
which is now the flagship of the Pa
cific Coast fleet. The contract price
of the California is $3,8O0,000. Her
keel was laid May 7, 1902, and she
was launched April 28, 1904.

Tacoma After Standard Oil.

Tacoma, May 23.-The city coun-
ell will throw a gaff into the Stand
ard Oil Company by endeavoring to
pass an ordinance requiring the COM
pany to sink it's big tanks into the
ground This would be very costly
proceeding and the company is pre-
pairing to fight the ordinance to the
last ditch. The trouble came about
through the company's building It's
plant too near the Carsten packing
house on the tide flats, violating an
ordinance that the plant should not

mable building.

mineral land thieves. Some of the |
yrafters in San Francisco are also |
said to be implicated in the frauds. |
