San Francisco Unions Fight streetcar
Company.
San Francisco, May 14.-There is
very little change in the strike situa-
ton in this city. Despite the fact that
30 cars were operated today on two
lines of the United railroads without
disturbance or molestation, and $4,000
people, according to the figures of the
company, availed themselves of this
partial service. President Calhoun to-
night was apparently far from opti-
mistic over the situation. He frankly
admitted that the carmen had them
guessing" as to their next move and
expressed himself as puzzled by the
apparent peace and reports received
by him which indicated serious trouble
later. The sudden change from the
fierce rioting the first part Of the week
created the idea that some unexpected
movement was being contemplated.
That the United railroads is still far
short of the required number Of men
to operate its system is evident from
the fact that the company Is advertis-
ing in 70 different cities for conductors
and motormen. 1t is understood that
there are now between 800 and 600
strikebrakers in the city, and 200
more are expected to arrive in day
or two.
Unquestionably the firm stand taken
by Governor Gillett when he an
nounced through the Associated Press
that he would Judge the San Francis
CO situation by the acts of the pep-
pie and would not hesitate a moment
to call out the militia If rioting should
be continued, had a SOLDERING effect on
hundreds Of troublemakers whose acts
Of violence made the history of the
past week one OF riot.
