san Francisco Jan. 6.-The indictment OF
local labor leaders in connection with The
Los Angeles Times" dynamite outrage
came as a hard blow to union men OF TINS
CITY. They had begun to believe that all the
talk Of the leaders being involved III the
crimes of the McNamaras was not to result
in indictments When the accused men
were arrested there was a feeling that labor
once more had been betrayed by its chosen
leaders. There was an entire absence Of Bit
rerness toward the prosecutors, but, on the
contrary. many union men took the view
that II the accused men had taken part in
the conspiracy they should be punished.
No attempt was made to raise defence
fund and the general sentiment among
union men is to let them fight it out. The
confession Of the McNamaras was a nara
blow to organized labor. 1t apparently de-
sfroyed its confidence in its leaders
Nothing could show more plainly the
change of sentiment toward the men ac-
rused Of connection with the dynamite out
RACES in Los Angeles brought about by the
Confession Of the McNamaras than the re-
,crtion accorded TveitmOe and Johannsen
when they returned here after their ar
rafrrment this week. The accused men wired
leaders here they were coming, and evi-
IDENTIFY expected TO find a reception commit
fee awaiting to show confidence in their in
nocence. Not a soul was at the station eN-
cent the wife Of Johannsen. The labor men
here seem TO have lost all interest in their
former comrades.

BY a unanimous vote the Supervisors
this week refused TO permit the merger of
the Pacific States and the Home Telephone
companies in this city. The merger was
proposed by Bell Telephone interests,
while it was opposed by the Postal Tele-

cure control Of the Independent telephone

hints during the hearings that improper
methods were being used 10 hasten the
merger, and bitter words were used at

The church census. which was completed
r. short time ago. showed religious senti-
rrcnt that astonished churchmen. Three
hundred and seyenty-ive thousand persons
were interviewed. and Of these - per cent
or PSI 600 had decided church preferences
while a9 600 told the census taker that they
had no religious leanings. The census
showed an apparent population far in ez-
cass Of 100000 As a result Of the good
results shown by this census it has been
decided to maintain permanent organiza-
ton Of interdenominational character. In
taking the recent census, Catholics, Protest
ants and Hebrews joined, and all worked in
harmony.

any more Of this fund than the amount

SHIPPERS LAY GRIEVANCES
BEFORE STATE AUTHORITY
{. NJ. Glasgow, of Railway Com.
mission, Hears "Kicks" On
Weighing of Carload Lots

A preliminary conference was held
Friday morning 10 take. testimony on
the grievances OF Michigan shippers
who claim that they suffer from the
methods which the railroads employ
In weighing carload lots. Several
large Detroit shippers attended the
conference, which was presided over
By Chairman c. NJ Glasgow of the
state railroad commission.
Among those present were j. I.
Marchand, attorney for the interstate
commerce commission; Hal II. Smith,
attorney for the Michigan Manufac-
turers association; Transportation
Commissioner A. T. Waterfall. of the
Board of Commerce; Robert II. Day,
manager of the transportation
bureau; c. ]. Wilson, superintendent
OF the Detroit Iron 4 Steel Co.; E. {.
Curtis, of the Michigan Stove Co..;
George Rumball. of the Detroit Stove
works; V. w. Dawson, OF the Bnr-
roushs Adding Machine Co.; ]. s.
Kellie, of the Ford Motor Co.; Z. NJ.
Wood of the Trussed Concrete Steel
Co., and w. j. Buchanan, of F, b,
Stevens & Co.
The shippers testified that they fire.
quently found discrepancies between
the actual tare weight OF cars and the
weight stenciled on them; that they
sometimes had to pay freight on rub
bish that was left in the car and that
the methods of the railroads in weigh
ing cars permitted many errors.
The hearing Friday morning, which
was continued during the afternoon,
tu ina 10 has ri A
question which will be held in the
federal building, before a representa-
tive OF the interstate commerce COM
mission, beginning June 81.
This hearing is chiefly for the
benefit OF the smaller shippers" said
Mr. Glasgow, but so far only the
large shippers" said Mr.. Glasgow
but so far only the large shippers
who can afford to keep transporta-
ton men have made an appearance.
The railroads can usually afford to
settle with them when they make
but the shipper who sends
out only a few carloads a year can
not exercise the same influence. We
want the small shippers to come into
court and state their grievances when
the formal hearing is held. They need
not fear any prejudice or discrimina-
ton on the part of the railroads be-
cause they make complaints because
that will not be tolerated at ALL.
Mr.. Glasgow stated that he was in
with the interstate
commerce commission with regard TO
the proposed increase in the demur-
rage charges after reasonable time
had been allowed to unload cars, but
had taken no definite action so far.
II is expected that the interstate
commerce commission will give the
railroads the authority TO raise the
charge to meet the present emergency
In Detroit.
Freight is being moved fairly we'll
now. II Is stated, but the increase in
the number Of cars moved has barely
been able to keep pace with the in
crease in the number OF cars offered.
The Michigan Central railroad has al,
ready put on six of the 90 switching
engines which have been ordered for
the Detroit yards.
IF those 90 engines had been In
service last winter we would not be
In the shape we are in now" said
