ARE COMING
To MEET ONLY
DISAPPOINTMENT
[uyIrEp 80 LEAsEn w1nE ]

San Francisco, Aug. 30.-Interna-
tional presidents Of five great crafts
are scheduled to arrive here this af-
ternOon from the East to confer with
General Manager julius Kruttschnitt
of the Hartman lines as to demands
by It's shopmen, which threaten a
railroad war.
The union representatives en- route
are j. W. Kline, Of the blacksmiths;
Joseph Franklin, Of the boilermak-
ers; NJ F. Ryan, Of the carmen; NJ.
O'Sulliyan, Of the Metal workers,
and James O'Connell, Of the machin-
lists.
That they are doomed to disappoint
ment Is a foregone conclusion, unless
they consent to abandon their posi-
ton as representatives Of a fedora
tion, and enter the conference with
Kruttschnitt as individual heads Of
respective crafts The official state
ment is that the railroad system Is
disposed 10 grant some of the de-
mands should they be made by the
separate crafts, but not to consider
them should they come through the
federated trades committee.
Although hard to reconcile with the
statement that the railroad may
grant the shopmen's demands, If
made by each craft separately, South
ern Pacific officials here today de-
clare lack of business Is causing gen
eral retrenchment, and that no worry
is felt regarding the threatened
strike.
This Is the worst time of the year
that the men could have chosen to
present their demands, 'one official
said The heavy freight traffic at
tendant on the California fruit sea-
son is over, business IN general Is
slack, and large number of cars
are idle all over the system"
The international presidents of the
crafts will be met on arrival by Err
nest l.. Reguin, head of the federal
ed shopment west Of the Mississippi
and other labor officials. The pres
ent situation will be explained fully
before the conference with Krutt.
schnltt is sought, but it Is believed
that reports of the aggressive stand
taken by the railroad will not be al.
lowed to interfere with the union
representatives attempt to adjust
matters amicably.

IL Mems More Idle.

Omaha. Neb., Aug. 3O-In a state
ment to Union Pacific shopmen here
today, General Manager Fuller, who
has charge of the Omaha shops Of
that road, urged that the demands of
the shoDmen on the Hartman roads
should be withdrawn, as they were
unfair
Fuller explained from the point Of
view of the roads why the mems de-
mands were not reasonable and put
the case up to the workers
Vice President Mohler, discussing
the situation, said:
1T is unfortunate that his trouble
came when business is bad and many
men are unemployed It only means
that more will be idle"

The meanest man in the world has
been found in Vancouver. A blind
man was eking out a precarious ex-
istence on the street and a human
being came along and gave him on
old English penny, saying it was a
tifty-cent piece, and asking for 40
cents in change, as the fifty-cpt
piece was the smallest he had. The
blind man handed the person four
dimes, and learned of his being
swindled when he went to a coffee
house and presented the penny in pay
ment for his frugal meal.

HE PLAYED GOOD
GAME FOR THE FIRST
UNITED rnEss LrAsEn VINE. |

Boston, Mass, Aug. 3O.-Matty
O'Toole, the sensational st. Pam
pitcher, who was purchased by Pitts
burg for $4,000, today won his first
game in the big league. He worked
like a veteran, allowing only four
hits in the first game of a double
header with Boston.
Although given poor support, he
bore himself well at all stages of the
game, keeping his head when men
were on the paths, and throwing the
same kind of puzzlers that made his
work in the American Association at
tract the attention of the baseball
world, and cause magnRtes to pile
gold knee deep to secure his services.
Working with O'TOole was his old
standby, Mike Kelly, who came along
from st. Paul on a $500 purchase.
The star battery worked well until
the sixth inning when Catcher Glib
son went behind the plate in place
of Kelly.
Boston made one run in each the
first and second, but after that they
were helpless until errors in the
eighth helped them to score two
more.
Pittsburg scored one in each the
second and third, and made three
runs in the seventh to cinch the
game. Another was scored in the
ninth. Score:

RAILROAD CIRCLES
RAILROAD CLEARANCE LAW.

The efforts OF the trainmen
throughout the United States to
secure standard clearance law,
requiring a clearance OF 20 feet
above the rails and six feet on
either side of the track are bearing
fruit, and there is hope among the
trainmen that the law will soon be
passed. But whether the new law
is ever passed, the agitation is
bearing fruit for it is reported now
that several of the western roads
are planning to provide the clear
ance asked by the men who oper-
ate the trains.
The United States is behind
Canada in providing the protec-
ton to trainmen.
Canada passed such a law last
fall and the railroads in this
country are in favor Of such a
measure as lessening the liability
Of accident to trainmen an paGsen-
gers. AS whole the main
lines Of the transcontinental COM
panies are not hit by such a clear
ance, but many OF the branch lines
will have to be changed.

LOVE SONNETS OF
A BACHELOR CONDUCTOR

The Pilot Man in his rounds
last week ran across the following
doggerel at the foot of sleeping
conductors bed in local hotel
Were it not for the fact that the
conductor in question is unjustly
known as a woman hater, (being a
confirmed bachelor) the lines be-
low would have been kept in the
secret archives of the Pilot man S
dome. An unjust accusation against
one of his friends however justifies
their publication.
Last week, twas On my regular Spo-
kane run,
had the fairest fare that ever yet
Rode on my train; and oh! | can't
forget
The smile she. put up to my moth
She was a peach if there ever was
one,
With face and figure of Broad
way pet.
And when She handed out that
smile, you bet
saw at once my finish had be-
One gladstone gaze from out them
big blue eyes
And u-oC EiIo an +bo cno+
In fact it hit me SO much by sur
prise
| dunno if she paid her way or not
But what's the odds? l don't care
if you did
Or didn't. oh! You peacherino
kid.
She rode upon my train again to-
day,
And as l grabbed her gently b.
the wing
TO hoist her up the boarding step,
something
Shot up my arm and sizzled thru
iHc. ody
l thought I'd gripped trolley wire
