SAN JOSE, Sept 12.— J. K. Castro and
Miss Margaret Munroe, two well known
young people of San Francisco, were
married at St. Joseph's Church here to
day. The Rev. Father Gleeson performed
the ceremony in the presence of a num
ber of friends and relatives. Miss Helen
Munroe, a sister, was bridesmaid, and
Arthur Castro, a brother, attended the
groom. A wedding breakfast was enjoyed
at the Lamolle, after which the couple
left for a wedding tour to Los Angeles.
Mr. Castro is a well-known member of
the Castro family of Mountain View, but
for a number of years has resided in San
Francisco. The bride is the daughter of
Mrs. Margaret Munroe of San Francisco.
Mr. and Mrs. Castro will make their home
in San Francisco.

MOSCOW,- Sept. 12.— Two high officials
of the Russian secret police have been
exiled to Archangel and Siberia, respec
tively. It is said they were ordered here
to organize a secret society, to hold se
cret meetings of workmen in different
towns of the empire, with a view to se
curing the arrest of the ringleaders ! of
such movements. Unfortunately for the
officials several of the meetings which
they arranged resulted in serious disturb
ances, hence the banishment of the two
secret police officials. The Incident has
caused a sensation in administrative cir
cles.

A cla"sh is likely at any time. Some of
the Indians who were opposed to the rat
ification of th,e treaty are threatening to
run the surveyors off the reservation. It
may become necessary to send out an
armed guard with every surveying party,
as trouble is likely in a number of quar
ters. One reason for the strained condi
tion is the recent death of Chief John,
who had the tribe under excellent con
trol. . His demise has left the more, rad
ical element is in the ascendency. The In
dians are especially bitter against the
"sooners," and some of these may be
killed before the opening unless they get
off the reservation. Two troops of col
ored cavalry are on the way to Fort Du
chesne as reinforcements and their pres
ence is expected to asist in preserving or
der. They were ordered there by General
Frank D. Baldwin, commander of the De
partment of Colorado.
SALT LAKE. Utah, Sept 12.— Serious
trouble^ is threatened on the Uintah In
dian reservation in the eastern part of
the State, and a detachment of troops
has been ordered from Fort Duchesne to
quell • the threatened outbreak. The
trouble Is due principally to the presence
of "sooners," who are awaiting the open
ing of the greater part of the reservation.
Although the Indian police and troop
ers from Fort Duchesne have been pa
trolling the country thoroughly, they
have not been able to keep off the "soon
ers," who have had frequent clashes
with the Indians. The red men are an
gered over the prospect of losing the rich
lands of the reservation, although the
matter has been settled for some time.
The more radical ones* among them are
counseling resistance. The sight of sur
veyors laying off the lands has incensed
them, and now comes the time when the
schools open, which often causes trouble.
A number of the Indians have defied the
authorities, declining to send their chil
dren to' school. A detachment of cav
alry has been sent out with instructions
to bring back the children and to arrest
the parents if, any resistance be shown.

Turkish circles are exercised at the ac
tion of the Greek Premier In protesting
to the powers against the atrocities per
petrated by the Turks upon the Greeks,
but confidence is expressed that there will
be no change in the attitude of the
Athens Government, on the ground that
Greece Is too much opposed to the expan
sion of Bulgaria to do anything which
might cause intervention and consequent
alteration of the status in Macedonia.
The dispatch of French warships to
nearer proximity to Turkey is accepted
here as an indication of the purpose of
France to be prepared to protect French
interests, not only during the present dis
turbance, but in the event of war. ¦
The suggested elevation of the Amer
ican Minister In Constantinople to the
rank of Embassador Is believed in official
circles here to be an excellent proposal,
on the ground that in the eyes of the
Mussulmans the United States occupies
an inferior position In near Eastern af
fairs, which is due partly to the lower
rank of it3 representative at the Turkish
capital. • .
Strong pressure is being exerted on the
British Foreign Office to cause it to take
more energetic action to stop the atro
cities on the part of the Turks. But the
policy of the Cabinet continues to be con
fined to preserving the concert of Europe.
On all sides It is said that the further ef
forts of every power will be to prevent a
general European conflagration. In the
event of an outbreak of war between
Turkey and Bulgaria being utterly un
avoidable, the policy of the powers will
be to avoid complications which may em
broil them.
LONDON, Sept 12.-From Informa
tion gleaned in various diplomatic
circles in London to-day It is
learned that the powers have come to
recognize the fact that only drastic meas
ures will maintain peace between Turkey
and Bulgaria. No one participating . In
the negotiations now denies that the two
countries are perilously close to war. It
is even suggested in a responsible quarter
that the Slavs are working with the Bul
garians to convince the world that a
frightful state- of affairs prevails In Mace
donia and that humanity demands the
intervention of the powers.

WEISENFELS ON THE SAALE, Prus

this year more than ever a vast specta
cle, affording a gorgeous background for
Emperor William's massive cavalry at
tacks and storming of batteries. The
Emperor turned the working out of the
day's strategic problem, prepared by the
general staff, into a glorified sham battle
that delighted many thousands of specta
tors assembled on the elevated ground.
The maneuvers were preceded by four
parades, four provincial banquets and the
state entry of the Emperor and Empress
into Saale for the purpose of attending
the ceremony of consecrating a church.
All i these functions were attended by the
various sovereigns of the minor German

LONDON. Sept 12.— A dispatch to a
news agency from Liverpool quotes Dr.
Robert J. Howard, the- son-in-law of Lord
Strathcona, the Canadian High Commis
sioner, who arrived there on the Cunard
Line eleamer Locania to-day, as saying:
"Every means is being taken to stiffen
the backs of the British representatives
In the Alaskan boundary matter to resist
the American demands."
He added: "The Canadians will be very
much incensed if the British commission
ers showed a disposition to give away
Canada's rights."
Dr. Howard's remarks were prompted
by statements published here from a Can
adian source, intimating that Canada
might be sacrificed by Great Britain for
the sake of the latter's friendship for the
United States. No one of the American
commissioners would consent to be quot
ed on the subject The British officials
openly cay that such criticisms certainly
will not predispose Lord Chief Justice Al
verstor.e to pass favorably on the Cana

papers to-day doubted "whether American
opinion would allow the American Gov
ernment to respect the findings; or. if it
is against Canada, it is possible that it
may spell eeparation from the mother
country."

LIVERPOOL, Sept 12.— A rumor is now
current that the White Star Line will
soon cease to be a part of the Interna
tional Mercantile Marine Company and
will become a purely British individual
firm under the ownership of the Ismay
family. It is said that the report pub
lished by the London Times this morning
In a dispatch from Liverpool that the
White Star, Dominion and American
•teamship lines will shortly cease to exist
as distinct organizations, • the Dominion
and American lines being taken over by
the White Star, applies only to a merger
of the passenger departments, though a
merger of the freight departments may
follow.
The officials of all lines Interested re
fuse to give out any information, and
confirmation of the defection of the
White Star Line Is completely lacking. It
seems possible, however, that some pas
senger merger arrangement will shortly
be announced.
LONDON. Sept 12.-The St James Ga
zette says that while the Morgans' cfllce
here characterize the merger as pure fic
tion, the St. James Gazette has reason
to believe that changes have been decided
upon, though perhaps not so sweeping as
indicated by the London Times. These
will take the form of further develop
ment at London, and Liverpool along the
lines by which all the West End passen
ger business of the Dominion, American,
Leyland and Transport lines will ue
transacted at cne ofilce. The several
staffs and offices at Liverpool may be
amalgamated. The paper quotes an In
ternational Mercantile Marine official as
Baying that changes were inevitable, and
"that rough corners in the administration
required knocking off."
Another Liverpool dispatch reports that
the White Star line v-'I Immediately take
over the Dominion "I... »¦». Boston and
Mediterranean serv* e, j. the best Do
minion vessels being 'j'^nsf erred to the
White Star flag and probably having
their names changed. The remainder of
the Dominion line vessels will continue
their Portland and Boston services,
though it is believed they will eventually
all be transferred to the White Star line.
The report regarding the transfer of
the American line is said to be without
foundation.
NEW YORK, Sept 12.— The reported

FRESNO, Sept. 12.— Negotiations are
pending between the Building Trades
Council and the Builders' Exchange
looking toward the appointment of a per
manent committee of arbitration for the
adjustment of all differences arising be
tween the workers in the building trades
and their employers. A prominent clause
of the agreement between the two bodies
is that there shall be no strikes. The
walking delegates of the trades union,
instead of ordering his men oft of a Job
when he finds affairs running in a way
that does not suit him, will report the
grievance to the arbitration committee,
and the men will continue at work while
this committee adjusts the trouble.
Another clause of the agreement is that
all the unions in the building trades shall
establish a wage scale to be in force until
a stated time. This has already been put
into effect, the unions having pledged
themselves to demand no raises in wages
until May 1, 1904. The appointment of this
committee and the agreement as to wage
rates promise to stimulate the building
progress in this city to a great degree.
Labor troubles and the uncertainty of'
completing Jobs on the contract price
have made many property owners chary
about building. Now, however, the sta
bility of conditions will prompt the com
mencement of a large amount of new
work.

The Government appears to be'firmly resolved to, avoid giv

doing its utmost to restrain the war fever. Sofia and the country
generally are outwardly as calm as in' the most peaceful times, but
the Bulgarians say this calmis more < to be feared than at any
- , n engagement is reported to ; have occurred between a force
of insurgents "and Turkish troops at Suipir.dol, in which not a
single revolutionist was killed, while the Turks lost heavily..
Telegrams from Burgas say : the Bulgarian population is fast
disappearing from vthe district of . Eosengrad, and that every one
unable to escape to the Bulgarian frontier is .killed. The' War
Office here is greatly concerned over the increasing number of
deserters who go to join the insurgents;
A deputation of leading professors and representatives of
the professional classes yesterday waited upon the Ministers and
urged the Government to order, immediate mobilization. Premier
Petroff replied to the delegation that the Ministry was unable to
admit the necessity for such a step at the present time.
The Turkish Government is believed to have at the present
moment no less than 60,600 soldiers in the vilayet of Adrianople,
large bodies of them within ten to fifteen kilometers of .the'Bul
garian frontier. Confronted by such a situation it is .urged that
Bulgaria would be amply justified in mobilizing the v first and sec
