NO PARATIONS
MADE FOR siege
MEN ORDERED NOT TG HAUL
CARS HANDLED BY NON
UNION MEN.

RENO, New. Oct. i.-rlrere is
a difference of opinion among the
shopmen on strike at Sparks re-
garding the length of time before
the controversy is settled Some
are of the opinion that it will
be many months yet before the
order is given to return to work,
while others contend that the mat
ters at issue will be speedily ad-
justed.
! There was a meeting Of the rail-
road employees held yesterday after
noon at Sparks but nothing that
transpired was given out. The men
maintained silence and no state
ment was made as to the course
that would be pursued, now that
the strike has been called. The
majority are in favor of waiting
for official directions from their
union officials in the east, and 1t is
doubtful if violence will be offered.
; The men who Joined in the walk
out were clustered in groups
throughout the day and the prin-
cipal topic of conversation was as
to the length of the strike. The
strikers are orderly and no at
tempts have been made to damage
the railroad property. On the
ether hand, the Southern Pacific
has no visible attempt to protect
the company property, although a
deputy sheriff was sent to Sparks
yesterday by Sheriff Ferrel. The
deputy, Jack Harrington, was want
ed by the railroad officials for the
purpose of guarding, CIR effecting a
workmanship over the deserted
shops, and was more for protec-
y tion against theft than as protec-
is ton against expected violence.
a During the day, it is understood
l. the Brotherhood of Firemen and
" also the brakemen, received orders
Of from their union headquarters no
at to handle any cars, freight or 9th
erwise that had been handled b!
le "scab' employees, except in the cas-,
ly of an exceptional emergency. Thi
IL action it is believed, is taken t.
le prevent "scabs" from repairing th
ne cars or taking positions in tn
ar shops in the place of the men VIII
joined the walkout. This is tn
first public recognition given b.
the trainmen to the shopmen sine
IS the strike was declared
1t was rumored yesterday tha
er the railroad officials were collectin
e. cabooses in Sparks that were to b
ey used as sleeping quarters for tn
", strikebreak ers but no more tina
is the ordinary number of caboose
i'll could be located in the yards.
Rumors, were about that severs
trainloads of strikebreakers wer
,p- expected from the east during tn
IL day, but no confirmation could b
secured and no strikebreakers al
peared during the day to confiri
. the statement.

AUSTIN, Pa, Oct. 4.-With the
arrival of carload of coffins here
yesterday, the grimness of the ira
gedy which has practically obliter-
ated this town, was impressed on
the survivors and a considerable
number of workers, who yesterday
began anew their efforts to mine
deeply into the hard hills of de-
bris. Twenty victims, including two
at Costello, had been placed in a
temporary morgue at Odd Fellows
hall, one of the few buildings stand
ing in the ruined district.
The most essential matter in
hand here, aside from the persist
ent work of clearing away the
ruins, is the completion of census OF
the living Austinites. If the deatl
list aggregates anything like the
enormous number some have esti
mated, the health officials realize
that conditions demanding promp
attention will arise within a few
days in the ruins. The most care
| full and well informed investigators
however, are unprepared to learl
that more than two hundred hav'
| perished. There is, inded, a pos
sibiity that $50 will be the total
There is little hope that any on
of the bodies remaining in the ter
rible wreckage will be found intact

ELKS' PORTLAND
CLUB DANCES
TOMORROW night

Tomorrow night will be given an
other one of those enjoyable social
hops and feeds, for which the local
lodge of Elks have become famous.
Heretofore, however, the dances
have been given by the lodge it
self, while from now on they will
be held under the auspices of what
is known as the Portland club.
The Portland club is made up ex-
clusively of Elks Its object is to
represent the Tonopah lodge and
the mining camp of Tonopah al
the big Elks' reunion at Portland
Ore, next July. 1t is the present
intention to represent Tonopah as
it has never before been represent
ed, and, let it be whispered, th'
local Elks are going to try 10
one or two of the parade prize
that will surely be offered by tn
Portland committee.
To this end the pulling off OF tn
social dances at the beautiful Elk
hall have been turned over to tn
Rortland club, and the proceed
will, instead of going into the treas
ury of the lodge, now go into tn
Portland clubs treasury To thi
end, also, different stunts will b
launched at different times betWee
now and next July. The Tonopa
lodge, it might be stated, stand
back of the Portland club in all il
public enterprises, and the publ
can rest assured that it will |
treated with the same considerable
in the future as in the past.
The officers Of the Portland clu
elected a short time ago, are
follows:

WAR SITUATION IS NOT
VERY STARTLING YET

is the destruction of Turkish de-
stroyers by the Duke of Abruzzi's
ships off Preyesa.
The Tripoi cable is sealed and it
is impossible for the outside world
to know what is going on there.
The Ottoman government clearly is
not hurrying and the most signifi-
cant official act of the day is the
decision of the Turkish council t.
again appeal to the powers and in
the meantime to suspend offensive
measures.
Late last night an appeal had MOI
reached the British government
and there was nothing to indicate
that the attitude of the nations hat
changed. According to the Dali!
Telegraph's Rome correspondent the
German and Austrian government
have already unofficially represented
to Italy their displeasure in he
procedure and intimated if thes
representations are ignored the
may be followed by the "humilia
ton of Italy"

Estimated List of Dead Is Growing Smaller
as Rescue Work PrOgresses-Scene Pre-
sents Most Appalling Sight.

The general aspect of the debris
indicates that hundreds of thousands
of javelin-like splinters and shreds
of buildings were shot through and
through the first accumulations of
ruins by the debris subsequently
hurled onward by the continuing
flood.
The aspect of Austin, Costello
and the valley beyond today is as
dreary as it is appalling. The towns
are pictures of desolation. The val
ley side hills, in which they lie, are
still Uttered by the shattered homes
of their people and the remnants
of prosperous places of business and
manufacturing plants
No reliable estimate of the prop
erty loss can be made soon, but
it is safe to say it will not b
less than $S,0OO,OOO. The paper
and lumber industries are utterly
destroyed. The timber supply in
deed was rapidly nearing exhaus'
tion, and at the best it was thought
five years from now the industry
would practically be at an end. II
fact, about 200 families had moved
! from Austin this fall Five hun
dred more would have gone within
the next year or two, unless wher'
industrial development came in t.

LONDON, Oct. 4 4Strict Italian
censorship is keeping the world in
the dark regarding the progress of
events in the Mediterranean. From
Italy, Tripoli, Turkey and the seas
where the Italian navy is operating
are many conflicting reports
One cablegram announced defn-
itely that Tripoli had been bonn
barded and occupied; another said
the city was not attacked.
Success of the Italian blockade
of the Tripoli coast from Tunis to
Egypt is shown by the arrival OF
two captured Turkish transports al
-Taranto and Brindisi
The impression still prevails tha
hostilities will be of brief duration
1t is believed Turkey, finding her
self unable to dispatch troops tt
Tripoli, will accept the mediation
of Germany. Europe is greatly re
lieved at the news that Turke.
has assured Greece she has no in
tention of attacking her.
