FEW MEN GET BACK

Will Be Same as Before Last
Hay Mechanics Gave TJ
With Arbitration. Idea.
SAN FRANCISCO. March 6.Following
the settlement of the machinists' strike,
nearly 1G0O men sought employment with
their old firms during the day, but of
that number less than 100 were given the
positions they vacated on 'May 20, 190L
Fully 700 men applied at the Union Iron
Works for -work, but only 53 were ac
cepted. The others were given to under
stand that they might apply from day to
ciay, and that they would be given em
ployment as circumstances might demand.
It Is expected that several weeks will
elapse before the last of the complement
of the Union Iron Works working force
will be restored to their old places in the
shop.
At the RIsdon Iron Works several hun
dred applications for reinstatement were
filed. During the morning a bare half
dozen were put to work, and in the after
noon some 20 were told to show up tomor
row morning. At the other shops which
are identified with the Metal Trades As
sociation the striking machinists were cor
dially received. A conservative estimate
of those who went back Axes the figure at j
less than 100.
It Is contended by the members of the
Iron Trades Council that the strike was
declared off pending an adjustment of tho
trpubio by the arbitration committee of
the National Civic Federation. Thts la
emphatically denied by the members of
the Metal Trades Association, who declare
that there is nothing to arbitrate, and
that the strikers will resume operations
under the schedule as to hours and wages
in force prior to the inauguration of the
ctrlke.

industry by removing the duty on hides.

very much opposed to a protective tariff,
he was opposed to unjust discrimination.
It was the unanimous opinion of the board
that If there was to be a protective tariff
the stockmen should have a share of the
spoils.

The case of the State vs. Austin Craig,
who was bound over to await the action
of the grand Jury on the charge of em
bezzlement by bailee, has been dismissed.
The grand Jury failed to find a true bill
after examining the matter.
Craig Is postmaster of Whitney, besides
holding several other positions. Last Fall
he acted as agent of the Bank of Sump
ter. and while acting in that capacity he
was arrested on complaint of A. P. Goss,
president of the bank, on the charge ot
larceny by bailee (appropriating trust
funds), and committed to await the ac
tion of the grand Jury. The failure of
the grand Jury to indict probably ends
the case.

Step Toward Universal Peace.
NEW YORK, March 6. Baron, de Es
tournelles do Constant, ot the French
Chamber of Deputies, and a delegate to
the peace conference at The Hague, has
addressed Columbia students on the re
sults of the 1899 peace conference. Many
prominent persons were in the audience.
"The final success of the conference,"
said Baron de Constant in conclusion, "Is
sure, for just as pioneers in all great
movements are attacked, so is the con
ference pooh-poohed now. The United
States and France have won their liberty
and it is now their duty to take another
step and win universal peace."
M. Jules Cambon, the French Ambassa
dor, followed Baron de Constant with a
short address.
"A diplomat." said he, "contrary to
public opinion, is not a man bowing,
scraping and constantly making compli
ments In the drawing-room. Nor is he a
scheming villain, but rather an apostle of
truth. The countries of Europe have tried
to avert the Spanish War and since they
could not do that they tried to shorten
it. I consider it one of the greatest epi
sodes of my career that I was instru
mental in helping to do so."
