RAILROADS ARE
FACING STRIKE
MANAGERS AND sWITcHMEN
FAIL TO COME TO TERMS
AT SAINT PAUL.
MAY APPEAL TO TAFT
POSSIBILITY OF GENERAL STRIKE
OF ALLIED BRANCHES OF
LABOR UNIONS.

st Paul.-Contrary to expectations,
developments Monday in the contro-
| versy between the railroads of the
Northwest and the striking switch
men. instead of resulting in an am
ieable settlement of the strike, result
ed in wider breach than has here
tofore existed
Not only have the switchmen de-
clared all negotiations with the rail-
roads off, but the labor leaders say
there is a strong possibility OF a gen
eral strike by the allied orders be-
longing to the railway branch of the
American Federation of Labor.
H. B. Perham, who has been acting
as chairman of the railway counsel in
session here, left Monday night for
Washington to seek advice.
There may be general strike, :"
said Mr.. Perham.
President Hawley of the switch
mems union, asserted:
Several other members of the rail-
way council besides Mr.. Perham have
left for their headquarters to make
preparations for a strike of their re-
spective orders
Mr.. Perham, in speaking of Mon
days developments, said:
Friday we were on the verge of a
settlement with the railroads and we
thought the matter would be fixed up
today. But this morning the railroads
presented a mysterious change of
front and assumed such arrogance that
we decided at once to have nothing
more to do with them. l am leaving
tonight for Washington. / have busi-
ness in Chicago and Cincinnati first,
but will arrive at the capital Thurs
day
"As the Intervention of the state
authorities have failed, l shall seek
the aid of the United States in putting
an end to a controversy that is caus-
ing bankruptcy and suffering among
innocent people who have no voice in
the matter"
Mr.. Perham would not state to
which department at Washington he
would appeal. He said he may seek
to interest the Interstate Commerce
commission and he may take the mat
ter up directly with President Taft.
In the conference between the rail-
roads and the labor leaders the rail
road officers refused to take back all
the switchmen at once, but agreed
to re-employ all those they have places
for. They gave the switchmen until
IL o'clock Wednesday to accept this
offer. The offer was Immediately re-
jected by the labor leaders.
Asked as to how long it would take
to call general strike, if such action
is decided upon, Mr.. Perham said:
Some of the orders can be called
out Immediately. There would be
some delay in calling out others, be-
cause of a difference in the method
of procedure in such cases."

SUPERVISORS LIKE
CITY HALL PLANS
Architect Presents a Scheme
for Serial Construction
of Edifce

A new plan for the building OF the
city hall, which has found favor with
those supervisors who have reviewed
it and which involves the construction
each year for five years of separate
wing. the five upon completion to form
star shaped structure with a central
court tower and dome, has been offered
to the board of supervisors by Archi-
tect Lewis Cowles of 1lol OctaVia
street
Cowles' suggestion that the city
adopt the plan and build one wing each
year until the whole is finished won
the approval of Supervisors Pollok and
Payot a this would do away with the
necessity of bonding the city for the
building. 1t is believed that special
tax of 15 cents on the S100, Which
would bring into the treasury S750,000,
would suffice for the purpose.
The. present hall of records would
combine harmoniously with the five
wings of the proposed hall, one of them
extending toward the gore corner of
McAllister street and City Hall ave-
nue..
The fact that every room in the
building would be abundantly open to
light and air, Payot said. was another
argument in favor of the group style
of structure for the city hall rather
than a central massive construction.
The board will consider the project
after it has run the gauntlet of the
building committees and the city arch
itect's criticism

STEAMSHIP COMPANY
CHARGES BAD FAITH
Answer Says That Rudolph and Gus Spreckels
Attack Actions of Their Father

the trust agreement. Attention is also
called to the fact that Claus spreckels
himself signed one. such waiver.
In answer to the charge that ths
trustee failed TO redeem all bonds with
the sinking fund on hand it is re-
marked that the trustee redeemed all
the bonds it could secure at a reason
able price and all that were offered irS
with the exception of 10 bonds which
were offered to the plaintiffs at Is.
This offer, it was alleged, was made
in bad faith and for the sole pur-
pose of enabling them to lay the foun-
dation for the present suit, for at the
time of the tender the market value of
the bonds was but so.
TRUST AGREEMENT OBSERVED
There is now accumulated in the
hands of the trustee, it is asserted.
100000, less than $4,000 of which was
spent in the redemption of 80 bonds at
about so per cent of their face value.
The accumulations consist of tie
amount realized from the sale of GER
tain ships from the interest paid on
the sum in hand as a commercial de-
posit and from the insurance received
from the loss of the steamer Australia.
Under the trust agreement the Oceanic
of using available money to reinvest
or TO redeem bonds, so that it mas
never acted outside its rights.
It is denied that the Oceanic steam
ship company has failed to carry suf-
ficient insurance on its ships, but, on
the contrary, it is asserted that the
insurance has always been in excess
of two-thirds the actual value of the
vessels. The values of the various YES
sells as quoted by the plaintiffs are de-
clared to be erroneous and to take no
account of depreciation and other mat
ters.
ACCOUNT GIVEN FOR CASH
The steamer Zealandia, which the
plaintiffs included as one of those COW
cred by the trust agreement, is said
by the defendant to have been explicitly
eliminated. 1t was later sold for $780,
OoO which amount the Oceanic steam
ship company turned in voluntarily to
tn trust fund.
A pronlissory note for $1,T0oo0o.
signed by the Oceanic steamship COM
pany and held by the John d. Spreckels
& Brothers Company, which was mem
toned in the complaint of Rudolph and
Gus Spreckels. is explained in full in
the answer. The note originated as
result of S2.500.000 bond issue for the
construction and equipment of the
steamers Sonoma, Sierra and Ventura
The actual cost of such improvements
was $2.771.0OO. and the difference of
s271, 600 was advanced by the John n.
Spreckels & Brothers company. as was
later sum of 100000 for the recon
struction and repair of the Mariposa
and Alameda.
Every clause of the complaint Is gone
over in detail and fully answered.
The document ends with prayer that
the case be dismissed and that the de-
fendant be awarded costs most wrong
fully incurred.
