FIGHT TO CIPTUBE
DEAD
NEWSPAPER
Hearst and Pulitzer Both After
Chicago .Chronicle
Franchise.
HEARST FAILS TO LAND IT
Walsh Would Rather Throw It Away
Than Lt Him Have It Em
ployes Suddenly Notified
of the Suspension.
CHICAGO. May 81. (Special.) Som
mystery attaches to the suspension of the
Chicago Chronicle, announcement of
which surprised employes of the paper,
with its suddenness this morning. All
day there have been conferences and vari
ous rumors about its successor, these nar
rowing down to W. R. Hearst and Joseph
Pulitzer. Hearst was especially anxious
to secure the Chronicle plant and Asso
ciated Press franchise, but it is under
stood that John R. Walsh refused to sell
to Hearst and prefers to throw away an
asset worth at least $200,000.
Hearst's representative announced this
evening that all negotiations were off so
far as his chief was concerned.
Late this afternoon the Chronicle force
was ordered to assemble at the office, it
being the supposition that some sort of
a paper would be issued to save the press
franchise, which expires at 6 o'clock to
morrow morning unless a paper is issued.
Late In the evening the force was dis
missed and H. W. Seymour, the editor,
announced that he was going to retire.
Asked if the paper had been sold, he
said: "You will have to ascertain that
from the purchaser. Sellers rarely talk;."
John R. Walsh flatly declined to an
swer any questions which would clear the
situation. Meanwhile, the employes are
rapidly being absorbed by other Chicago
papers. It la believed that Joseph Pulit
zer will break into the Chicago Held, trie
opportunity being especially good at this
time.
The Chronicle was a success at the
start. Its first reverse came the year
following Its birth, when after the nomi
nation of William Jennings Bryan, fol
lowing his famous "Cross of Gold"
speech, it bolted the regular Democratic
Presidential ticket and supported the
nominee of the gold Democracy, John M.
Palmer, of Illinois, and General Buckner,
of Kentucky. After the defeat of Bryan
the Chronicle regained Its prestige and
was one of the' leading newspapers of the
West until 1900, when it practically bolted
Bryan again, giving him only nominal
. support.
In 1904 it repudiated Democracy alto
gether, and came out boldly for Roose
velt and Republican principles.
PIONEER PRESS SOLD AGAIN
6t. Paul Taper Said to Have Passed
Out of Hill's Control.
ST. PAUL, May 31. Rumors which have
been current ever since the death of Jo
seph A. Wheelock, editor of the Pioneer
Press, took on today a semblance of col
or when it was stated that a syndicate
had purchased the stock controled by
James J. Hill and would change the pa
per to a Democratic dally. This was au
thoritatively denied, but it can be said
that the so-called Hill stock actually has
passed into the hands of others.
It is stated by one In a position to know
that Webster Wheelock, son of the late
editor, together with friends, has ac
quired possession of the stock. Mr.
Wheelock will remain as editor In chief
and there will be no change in the policy
of the paper.
FIVE COUPLES DIVORCED
fnhappy Pairs Sundered by Judge
Gantenbeln in Stat Court.
Marriage vows of five couples were dis
solved by Circuit Judge Gantenbeln yes
terday. These decisions by the Jurist
granted divorce to a father of eight chil
dren and husband for 34 years, a bride of
an unhappy 12 months and a sweet-faced
little woman clerk employed in the office
of County Clerk Fields who was deserted
by her husband 13 years ago. The re
maining cases were of the ordinary type,
the complaints alleging the time-worn
desertion and Infidelity.
Although a hushanrt for 34 years and the
father of eight children Thomas J. Bid
well sought the courts for separation. His
testimony that his wife was cruel and in
sanely Jealous was corroborated by his
23-year-old son, Karl, who testified. he had
offered his mother money to obtain a
divorce, believing separation would better
parents and children. Bidwell was given
a decree. In consideration of which he
allowed the custody of his two minor chil
dren to Mrs. Bidwell. These children.
Hazel, 12""years old and Herman, aged 11.
are now in charge of the Boys' and Girls'
Aid Society. The father will pay $30 a
month fur their board. Bidwell alleged
that his wife threw his clothes out of
her home in Astoria three times and at
the third hurling had included his person
with the garments.
That she had been deserted by her
husband 13 years ago when she and her
two children were victims of a violent
attack of grip was the complaint of Mrs.
Annie K. Ixmg, a stenographer in the
office of the County Clerk. She was given
a decree when testimony by her aged
mother, Mrs. Kellogg of 572 East Morri
son street, corroborated her story of oon
nuhlal woe. The Longs were married De
cember 15, 1SST, In Fresno, Cal., where
the husband left his wife and children ill
and penniless seven years later.
Mrs. Hattle Wilson called upon a newly
married couple to verify her statement
that she was "beaten to a pulp" by her
husband and entitled to a divorce decree.
She was granted findings after recounting
the troubles of, her married life, which,
she testified, began three weeks after her
wedding day and extended until the be
ginning of this month, when she left her
husband of a year to save her life. Mr.
and Mrs. Schacffer, who lived next door
to Mrs. Wilson, told of her battered ap
pearance after her last encounter with
her husband.
Sohaeffer appeared in the courtroom
without a coat. His negligee was the
subject of an apology by Mrs. Wilson's
attorney, who accoxinted for the witness'
appearance by saying he had summoned
him from rough labor.
Gilbert I. Richardson, employed by
Wells-Fargo & Company, exposed a "man
in the case" by his suit for divorce from
Corlnthe Richardson. He was given a
decree and the custody of his 5-year-old
son. who, he stated, had been kidnapped
by the mother when she fled to Tacoma
to consort with Frank B. Irons, alias
Frank B. Oberg. A letter from the
prosecuting attorney of Tacoma telling of
the arrest of Mrs. Richardson and Irons
or Oberg in Tacoma. was considered cor
roboration of Richardson's testimony to
allow him the findings. Richardson testi
fied his llttla son had told him he was
beaten by his mother whenever he men
tioned "papa" , in her presence. The
Richardsons were married January 27,
1S94, in St. Louis.
That her husband was lasy and left her
with the first money of any considerable
amount he ever handled was the com
plaint of Mrs. Rosa S. Bennett. She was
given a decree after her own testimony
and that of her son by a former husband.
The Bennetts were married in Portland.
September 4. 1895, the husband deserting
her in November, 1905. She alleged Ben
nett deserted her after obtaining several
hundred dollars by the sale of a timber
claim of which she was part owner.
CRSI MAY GO TO ROCKPILE
Wife Complains That Husband Does
Not Support the Family.
In effect only six days, the recent ses
sion law which provides labor on the
county rockpile'' for non-supporting
husbands found a victim yesterday. Joe
Ursi, an Italian, has been charged by
the District Attorney with neglecting to
support his wife and two children and
will be brought to book for the omission
next Monday. His wife, Maria Ursl.
who swore to the complaint stated she
would sue for divorce if the rockpile
did not have a salutary .effect.
Mrs. Ursi complained to the Juvenile
Court that her husband as wantonly ne
glected her and her little ones for the
last decade. She also accuses him of
beating her violently when she requests
small sums for household expenses. The
family lives at 2S8 First street where the
wife washes for her neighbors to sus
tain herself and little ones. The couple
married In Italy 14 years ago. Ursl is
32 years old and his wife is 29.

test provides that men convicted of non
support of wives and children may be
sentenced to serve from 30 days to a
year In labor on the county roads or
other public work at $1.50 a day and their
wages turned over to the neglected wives
and children by the County Court,
The act also authorizes the County
Court to work conjointly with the Circuit
Court and the Juvenile Court in bringing
non-supporting husbands and fathers to
justice.
JjAWTERS FEAR NEW STATUTE
Law Permits Circuit Court Judges to
Act In Probate Cases.
Fearing the law will be declared un
constitutional and believing it may prove
lax by making it possible for a circuit
judge to overrule his own rulings law
yers are chary of an act which by the
recent session laws permits circuit judges
to certify to probate orders in the ab
sence of the county judge. Attorney J.
C. Moreland is the only practitioner thus
far who has taken advantage of the new
law, although it has been In effect since
May 25 and Judge "Webster has been ab
sent. By the law a circuit judge not neces
sarily familiar with an estate may cer
tify to a probate order. Later he may
have occasion to try a case wherein the
estate is concerned and testimony ad
duced may oblige him to overrule his
own ' certificate. This would entail
trouble for the lawyers in having their
probate matters sent back to the County
Court. In the main this Is the cause of
their fear of the new law.

FIRST RIFT I CLOUD
Ironworkers' Strike Settled in
San Francisco.
EIGHT-HOUR DAY DEFERRED
Strikers Accept OldTernis and Em
ployers Agree to Gradual Reduc
tion of Working Time Till
Minimum Is Reached.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 31. The first
rift in the cloud of strikes and unsettled
labor conditions which has overshadowed
San Francisco for many weeks occurred
today, when the strike of 10.000 ironwork
ers was amicably settled. The men went
out several weeks ago to enforce a de
mand for an eight-hour work-day and an
increase in wages. This resulted in
closing the Union Iron Works, the Fulton
Iron Works and all the foundries, ma
chine shops and iron works, not only in
San Francisco but in all the bay cities.
The settlement was brought about by
the active work of a conciliation com
mittee composed of delegates from the
commercial organizations, the federated
churches. Civil League and peace com
mittee of the Labor Council. The men re
turn to work upon the same conditions
of hours and wages as prevailed when
they struck and which shall remain in
effect for 18 months.
The committee from the Metal Trades
Association, representing the employers,
conceded that commencing December 1,
1908, there shall be a reduction of 15
minutes in the work-day every six months
until an eight-hour day is reached June
1, 1910, which shall be in enect thereafter.
The factors which brought about, a set
tlement were the threat of the employers
to import non-union labor, a depleted
treasury and the failure to receive as
sistance from other unions because of the
many strikes here and the concession of
the foundries and iron works that after
three years an eight-hour day will be
granted.
FIND WAGES MUCH TOO HIGH
Cause Attributed In San Francisco
i
to Excessive Rents.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 31. That rents
and cost of living are too high and are
primarily the cause of the high wages de
manded here, and that the percentage
contract system was largely responsible
for the demoralized condition in the
building trades, were the conclusions ar
rived at this afternoon at a meeting of
the committee appointed by the Builders'
Exchange and a committee from the
Realty Board.
The two committees had been appointed
to consider ways and means for bringing
about a restoration of normal conditions
in the building trades in this city. The
committee from the Builders' Exchange,
headed by Secretary James A. Wilson,
submitted a table showing the scale of
wages paid in 35 leading cities in the
United States. In nearly all trade it was
found that the scale paid In San Fran
cisco was from 2 to 15 per cent higher
than that paid in Seattle, where was paid
the next highest scale.
It was found that plumbers, steamflt
ters and gasfitters were paid 6 1-4 cents
an hour more in Seattle than in San
Francisco. With those exceptions this
city pays the highest wages in the coun
try. The committee from the Realty
Board admitted that the prevailing rents
asked In this city were too high and that
these must be reduced if labor was to
be asked to submit to a reduction in
wages. No conclusion as to how this
can be brought about was arrived at. It
was the consensus of opinion that the
two committees should make every effort
to avoid a general tieup of the building
Industry. The committee will meet again
next Tuesday.
CARS RESUME REGULAR RUNS
San Francisco Company Says Full
Service Is in Sight.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 31. The
United Railroads announced tonight
that, beginning tomorrow, cars will be
put in operation at 6 A. M. and con
tinue until 9:30 P. M. This time will
be gradually extended and by the end
of next week full service, with the ex
ception of owl runs, will be resumed.
The company reports 212 cars operat
ed today.
At the Sixteenth and Bryant-street
crossing of the United Railroads, a
switch was torn out some time last
night and the Sansome-street line was
completely blocked by an immense pile
of rubbish. The work is suspected
to have been done by strike sympa-j
thizers.

GRAVES IN STREETS
Thrifty Owners of Lone Fir
Cemetery Utilize Space.
NO REMEDY NOW IN SIGHT
City Attorney McXary Reports to the
Street Committee of Council on
the Subject Owners of
Lots May Act.
At the meeting of the street committee
of the Council yesterday afternoon City
Attorney McNary brought before the
members the fact that the owners of
Lone Fir Cemetery are interring bodies
in the ground that was dedicated for
streets. He said he did not think there
was any way for the city to stop such
a course unless the matter was taken up
from the standpoint that public health is
menaced. Action, he said, could be taken
in the court at any time by any of the
owners of plats In the cemetery to whom
this has become a nuisance.
The question of grading East Stark
street, otherwise known aa the Base Line
road, was talked or. but it was said
that If done it would bring the street at
a lower level than the graves, and that
the sewage would be detrimental to the
health of the community.
The project of cutting East Twenty
sixth street, from East Stark through to
East Morrison, was discussed at length,
and It was the sense of those present
that since this property has been used
as a public highway for a number of
years, it should be used by the public
without any payment by the city to the
cemetery association. City Attorney Mc
Nary will send a written recommendation
to the Council in line with the action of
the street committee, which will be read
at its meeting next Wednesday. In re
gard to the cemetery matter, it was de
cided to rescind all former action and to
start In afresh.

AERONAUTS LOST AT SEA

No Hope That Missing English Army
Officers Live.
LONDON, June L (4:50 A. M.) The fate
of the two young engineer officers, Lieu
tenant Caulfield and Lieutenant Leake,
who went up in a balloon from Aldershot
Camp on May 28, remains a mystery, and
there is every reason to believe that an
other tragedy of the air and sea has taken
place. The officers at Aldershot have
practically given up hope.
It is thought that the balloonists, con
fused by the heavy mist, mistook their
bearings. This theory is borne out by the
log, which was recovered and in which
it Is recorded that the two officers were
trying to descend Tuesday evening, when
the balloon was seen drifting out to sea
by the Weymouth coast guards. It is
feared that the aeronauts were either
thrown out when the basket struck the
water or that they were drowned subse
quently when the balloon, after being
driven bounding over the waves; finally
dropped into the. channel. The log shows
the balloon reached an altitude of, 6000
feet.
