Mrs. A.. C. Kirby. living at SIS
Center street w, suffered two broken
ribs. a broken collar bone and a Sc
we're scalp wound last night at 1880
when their car, driven by Mr.. Kirby,
overturned in the cut at the second
turn west of the chautauqua grounds
on their way home. She vas taken
to the hospital, and her condition is
considered serious.
The car. a large n containing
seven passengers, was following an
other car homeward. There was
some difficulty with the lights. and
they were proceeding under the guild
ance of the car ahead. On coming to
the curve they were going at a more
rapid rate than they supposed, and
made a wider turn than the car
ahead. The machine struck the
slope, then the looser sand, and over
turned. Though they were all badly
shaken up and some sustained
bruises, Mrs. Kirby was the only one
who sustained considerable injury.
1t is thought she was projected
through the windshield, as she occu-
pied the front seat with her husband
Mrs. O. G.. Rowland, a neighbor, who
was also a passenger, estimated thai
the car turned owe two or three
times.

Returning to Work.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 2S.-Al-
though their striking employees were
prepared to return to work this morn
ing, three of the seven San Jose can
neries which have been tied up by the
cannery workers strike, refused TO
open. Officials of the other four San
Jose canneries had their plants ready
for business.
The California Fruit Gamers asso-
citation, the Central California can,
neries and the DeFiori Canning COM
pany were the three concerns which
did not open. They said they had
shipped away their fruit supply and
also deemed it unwise to resume op-
erations unless the government would
give them protection and agitators
would agree to cease interfering with
the workers.
There has been no announcement as
to what effect the ending of the strike
will have on the strikes In San Fran

terrific losses inflicted upon this

strike Of 1880 members of the Broth

threatens to paralyze local traffic and
depress trans-continental freight

America, which charges that the
Brotherhood switchmen are striking
TO force the S. y. A. into non-exist-
ence by asking for a closed shop, is
aiding the railroads in importing
strike breakers.
Fears of a sympathetic strike by
the Brotherhoods of Engineers, Fire

early today with the announcement
that these men would remain at work.
More than 1000 policemen were on
duty in the railway yards.
