THREATENED STRIKE
STOPPING SHIPPERS
Several Call al Freight Office
On Long Distance Shipments
OREGON SHORT LINE PUBLISHES
NOTICE REGARDING STRIKE.
Rejects All Shipments That Reach
Destination After II O'clock On Sat
urday Morning.

Local shippers are already begin
ming to feel the effect of the threat
ened strike owing to the notice made
public yesterday of the fact that no
freight shipments would be received
which would not in the course of or
binary traffic reach their destination
Saturday morning at II o'clock a. m.
mountain time, and that passenger
trade would likely be interfered with,
and greatly delayed on all trips where
those travelling had not reached their
destination by Monday morning at the
time that the strike has been called to
begin. Several shippers called up the
depot yesterday about sending out
stuff and learning that they could not
get to the point of destination by Sat
urday morning, did not try to ship. No
formal tender which it has been nee
essary to turn down has been made
here. 1t was stated at the depot this
morning that no freight for points be-
yond Salt Lake City would be re-
ceived today.
The general notice posted in the
depot yesterday and signed by H. V.
Platt, the general superintendent,
reads as follows:
"In view of the published statement
to the effect that a strike of trainmen
on all railroads in the United States
has been called for seven o'clock a.
M, eastern time, September 4, 1916,
notice is hereby given that if said
strike takes place unavoidable delay
will probably occur to passenger and
freight trains. The Oregon Short Line
gives notice, effective at once, that il
will not receive any freight for ship
ment which cannot reach its destina-
tion on regular schedule by 10 O'Clock
a. m. on Saturday, September 2, 1916
Agents receiving freight which should
reach its destination on regular sche-
dule by that time shall stamp on re-

ARE ARRANGED
Preliminary Hearing Set For Septem-
ber Z, at 10 O'clock Before Judge
A. w. OstrOm.

Lynn Lovelace was formally ar
raigned yesterday before Probate
Judge A. w. Ostrom on the charge Of
numbering F. Thomas Hamill on Au-
gust Is, while his older brother Har-
old, was arraigned as accessory to the
crime. The boys, by their attorneys,
entered a plea of not guilty and the
time for the preliminary was set for
September 7, at 10 o'clock a. m. The
stepfather and the mother of the boys,
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. A. Pennywell, were in
the city, having returned from their
trip to their homestead. Mr.. Penny
well told TIMES representative to-
day that they were unable to do very
much for the boys, as they were not
here at the time that the trouble took
place, but they would do what they
could, and trusted in the people here
seeing to it that they got fair trial.

HANSEN BRIDGE IS
TO Be SUBMITTED
Commissioners To Take Up Mat
ter with HiIISdaIe Board
EFFORT WILL BE MADE TO FIND
SITE SATISFACTORY TO ALL.
Proposition That Bond Issue be Sub
mitted at General Election Meets
With Favor.

That the board of county commits
sioners would engage an engineer to
make a thorough survey of the possi-
BILE bridge sites in connection with
what is known as the Hansen bridge,
with a view of calling an election for
bond issue at the time of the regu
lar election in November, was an
nounced by the majority of the board
after consultation with the directors
of the commercial club at the club
rooms Tuesday afternoon.
The commissioners were represent
ed by Chairman o. E. Carlson and T.
f. Moore, and the commercial club by
Secretary James Mcmillan, ]. M. Max
well, S. Hart and Luke E. Wright. The
whole situation was canvassed care
fully and several misunderstanding
Strengthened out. Secretary Mcmillan
read from copies of resolutions Of
the board adopted September IA, 1914,
and September Is, 1915, relative to the
bridge across the river into the Hills
dale district, in the first of which it
was proposed, among other things, to
devote $4,000 to preliminary work on
the Hansen bridge matter, provided
that a like sum were advanced by the
state, and in the second of which it
was stated that in the event that the
Hillsdale district across the river in
MinidOka county would raise it's share
of the required funds, Twin Falls
county would take steps by bond or
levy to cooperate in the building of a
bridge. The Hillsdale people had voted
bonds and sold them, declared Mr.. Nc
MILAN, and wanted the people here to
cooperate in erecting the bridge.
Chairman Carlson, replying for him
self, declared that he favored the
building of the bridge at point salts
factory to the people of Twin Falls
county and of the Hillsdale district
but called attention to the fact that
the minutes showed that he had al
ways favored bond issue rather than
a direct levy for the reason that di-
rect levy was limited by law to one
mill for bridges and two and a hall
mills for roads, or $780, 900 for bridges
and $4,000 for roads, according to the
present valuation of Twin Falls coun-
ty property. The share of the cost OF
the bridge which would fall to Twin
Falls county would probably exceed
the total of two years bridge levy
leaving nothing for the repair of other
bridges through the county, even If al
the bridge levy were available Even
assuming that the road fund should
be drawn on, after the amount sci

like Twin Falls, Filler and the Buh

SMALL FIRE THIS AFTERNOON.

Fire starting either from an oil
stove or from electric wiring, gutted
the upper story of the frame rooming
house at the corner of Fourth street
and Second avenue north this after
noon about 2:30 o'clock. The fire
started in the rooms occupied by Mrs
Williams upstairs and the contents
were destroyed. The fire was noticed
by Miss Fleury, guest of Mrs. Petit
next door, and the alarm was given al
once. Mr.. and Mrs. Kellogg, who live
upstairs, lost part of their effects, and
thought they lost valuable papers
which were, however, recovered. The
furniture belonging to Mrs. A. S
Paulin, who conducts the house, was
badly damaged. The house itself be.
longs to a man named Keltner, whC
lives in California, and was mucl

mothers of the boys, and others in
terested in the work. The material
used was strong canvas previously
purchased for that purpose by the
Company d association. Each kit was
of size suitable to fit in the bed roll
which every soldier carries, and was
divided into a number Of pockets OF
various sizes. Each kit contained one
bath towel, one wash cloth, one cake
of soap, one package of safety pins
one tablet of writing paper, one pack
age of envelopes, one pencil, and {
package of gum.

The Red Cross is now planning to
send a barrel of canned fruit to No
gales next week. All those who are
willing to give a quart of fruit are
asked to deliver it to Hickler's Cash
store not later than Saturday night,
September 2, as the fruit must be
packed September 4. Any who have
not fruit to give but who would like
to help send it, are urged to contri-
butte money to help to defray express
charges. Surely every woman in Twin
Falls should be glad to contribute one
quart of fruit or a small sum of money
to help vary the army diet for the
boys at the border

NO STRIKE AT LAUNDRY.

Because the sending out OF work
from the Troy steam laundry was de-
layed on account of the installation Of
two new, modern washing machines
and an extractor, the rumor spread
through town yesterday that there was
a strike on. The office reported that
nothing of the sort had happened, but
that extra hard work was being done
by employees on account of the rush.

ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

18S1--Mike Donovan, welterweight and middleweight boxer, born at Ban try, County Cork, Ireland. Mike was not as good as his great predecessor of that name, who held the middle weight championship of America. for many years, but he was a mighty handy man with his fists and gave the fight fans some corking good battles. His ring career, beginning in 1897. continued for more. than dozen years. In 1900 Mike fought 2O-round draw in Wheeling with Mysterious Billy Smith, who had just lost the welter title to Rube Ferns Mike then fought the Rube, but lost the decis- ion. In 1903 Donovan got draw with Joe Walcott, then the boss of the vel ters. He defeated the Barbados de-
 mon at Providence. but Walcott had then lost his title and was on the down grade. Donovan fought fre- quently throughout his long career in the ring and was always willing to tackle any man of his weight, no matter what his reputation. Most of his bouts were fought in the East, Buff falo and Rochester being the cities most favored by Mikes presence.

TO DISCUSS LOW PRICES FOR BROWN
 CONTEST TONIGHT

New Haven, Nov. 6-There will be special meeting this morning of the executive committee in charge of the Yale Bowl to consider the advisability of throwing the Yale-Brown~ game lar prices, in accordance with a letter sent to President Hadley Saturday by Jerry Holmes of Bridgeport, a promi- nent Brown graduate.
 MT. Holmes makes the very sensi- ble suggestion that there are thou sands of people in this state who would like to see Yale play late in the season especially in such near classic event as the game with Brown, which is always popular with the foot ball public in these parts. It is the opinion of MT. Holmes that the Bowl could be filled for that game if the price were put at some such popular figure as 50 cents, the same as the earlier games of the season.
 The Yale management in the past has been very generous in letting peo- pie into the Brown game, and thou sands of High school pupils have been gladdened by tickets to the big encounter. This policy will be con- tinued this year.
 No definite answer could be given last night by any members of the ex- ecutive committee but as the propOsi. tion is one of business as well as of advantage to the general public, it is safe to assume that the Yale man. agement will give the matter the most careful consideration.

PLAYERS PREPARE TO FIGHT AGAINST
 CUT IN SALARIES

New York, Nov. 6-David L. Fultz president of the Baseball Players Fraternity, last night indicated that his organization is prepared for fight to a finish in order to force revision of the injury clause" in players con- tracts. The main fight is being made on the American League, with empha- sis on the Washington and New York clubs.
 "The injury clause in some of the contracts provides that player may be suspended without pay when an in jury suffered in the performance of his duties makes him unfit for active service. It permits a player to be held in bondage without salary and pro- hibits him from seeking employment elsewhere" declared Fultz.
 President Johnson of the American League is reported to have said in a recent interview that the fraternity petition accuses certain American League clubs of suspending injured players. without pay. Either MT. John son has been misquoted or he is evad- ing the issue. We made no such &C., cusation. In our brief we stated that certain contracts gave the owners the right to so misuse players if they saw fit, and asked that such clause be re- moved.
 MT. Johnson made a somewhat heated denial of the supposed accu- sation and said he had demanded of us the names of players so suspended. He has made no such demand. MT. Herman, however, did wire for copies of contracts containing the ob- jectionable clause. which is an entirely different request.
 "We replied that contracts could not be forwarded without consent of the players, but that MT. Johnson would find the provision in Section 4 of some of the Washington and New York contracts. As copies of all con- tracts are already lodged in his office our compliance seemed unnecessary"
 It is an open secret that major league owners are making plans for big salary reductions this winter Should there be a definite indicatioa of concerted action in reduction, there is no doubt that the fraternity will re- taliate. Just how is uncertain A host of war time contracts of leading lights expired with the 1916 season and very few new documents have as yet been offered the players.
