British Ship Chartered for Outward Loading. Pabst Blue Ribbon Tke Beer of Quality Telegraph Companies Will Not Meet Operators' Com mittee. ON WAY FROM NEWCASTLE "The Californians" Next Week. "The Californians," Tom Karl's comic opera company, have Just closed a Summer season of four weeks at the Sea Beach Casino, Santa Cm. They played & very successful engagement at San Jose, clos ing last Sunday night. They came direct from that city to Portland, arriving here early this morning. The few days Interven ing between now and their opening next Monday night at the Marquam Grand will serve to put them In excellent voice and fine form for a great performance of "The berenade." the opera Mr. Karl has selected as his opening bill. The company carries all of its own scenery and costumes. Its chorus is said to' be the best of any traveling musical organization. Portland music-lovers are looking forward to a rare treat during the engagement of "The Caltfornians." and It is safe- to say that they will not be dis appointed. The sale of season seats begins this morn ing at 10 o'clock. The regular seat sale starts tomorrow (Thursday) at 10 A. M. INDIVIDUALS MUST APPLY Election of Peace Committee by the Strikers Declared Futile, but They Hope That Public AYill ' Bring Pressure to Bear. : CHICAGO. Aug. 26. (Special.) years overtures on the part of the '. striking; telegraph operators will prove futile... That was the declaration today of the- local superintendents of the telegraph companies. While the strik ers are electing a representative from each of the telegraph' districts to be ' In readiness to act, the companies de clare that they will refuse to meet such a committee. . "Nothing will come of the eletion of a committee by the striking operators," declared Superintendent T. P. Cook, of the Western Union Company. "The companies will not meet with the strikers. We have SO more operators at work today than we had Satnrday. These men all come om the East. We are improving the service every day. :There Is Just one way that peace can be .brought about, and that is through the strikers returning to work. We fill hire our former employes, as we need them, and that is all there is to it." Must Return When pet Tired. Superintendent Capen. of the Postal Company, talked in the eame strain, and said he was satisfied there would be no-conferences with any committee of former employes. . '. "The election of a peace committee doe'B not Interest the telegraph com panies In the least." said Mr. Capen. "We are In exactly the sane position as we were the first day of the strike. W determined then that our former employes would have to return and apply individually for positions when they tired of striking, and that Is our position today. There Ib not the slight est possibility of officials of the Pos tal Company meeting any committee." Think Public Will Protest. At the headquarters of the Teleg raphers' Union the National officers ap peared as .confident as ever that a con ference would be held when the proper time arrives. Secretary Wesley Russell said: "We are getting along very nicely, and cart stand this thing for several weeks, or months if need be. If tne companies can stand it, so much ' tne better for them. The business interests, however, are beginning to demand better service snd, when the pressure becomes strong enough, I think the companies will be plad to- meet a committee of employes. We can afford to wait." , . . How Wires Are Grounded. Will C. Long, editor of the Telegraph ers' Journal, said today that his speech Sunday was misunderstood, and that he did not advocate the grounding of wires. He declared that what he said was that Incompetent operators frequently ground ed wires accidentally lnsteau of "cutting them through'' their offices when they left their keys temporarily, and it was possible that many wires would be "ac cidentally" grounded that way. There- were no desertions from the ranks of the local strikers today, ac cording to the leaders, though the after noon meeting was smaller than it has been any day since the strike started. Many of the operators are said to be leaving the city. PREPARED FOR FINISH FIGHT Strikers Will Prolong Strike Till Congress Acts. NEW YORK. Aug. 27. The prospects of a mutually satisfactory settlement of the telegraphers' strike are , no more promising than a week ago. The strike leaders say they have accepted the com panles' statements as final and are pre pared to prolong the strike until busi ness interests force Congress to act in the matter.
