KRUTTSCHNITT IS
HERE 10 SETTLE
LABOR DISPUTE
Southern Pacific Chief Says He
Will Meet the Federated
Unions
After Conferring With Local
Railroad Officials He Will
Make Statement
would refuse to recognize the Federa
tion of Shop Employes of the
Harriman lines, he left the inference
clear that the roads were prepared to
resist what seemed to the officials at
tempts at union domination. v
'The recognition of the federation
and the granting of its demands
would place the unions in absolute
control of the railroads of the coun
try," he said. "We have realized from
long experience that we have a tre
mendous obligation in discharging our
<iuty to the public, and to that extent,
railway officials are quasi-public offi
cials. It is necessary to take a firm
stand on these matters."
'Calvin Is Silent
Calvin, who was Kruttschnitt's com
! panion from Sparks. New, did not ac
l company Kruttschnitt and his wife to
' the upper deck upon boarding the
ferryboat. He stayed below with
Charles H. Athearn, director of econ
; omics of the line, who met Kruttschnitt
at the Oakland mole. Calvin refused
to talk on the situation.
Arriving on this side the party en
tered a waiting automobile and ■was
driven to the Bellevue hotel. Krutt
schnitt's daughter was waiting for her
parents at the ferry in the automo
bile and gave them a warm greeting.
With the arrival of Kruttschnitt in
San Francisco last night, three days
ahead of his scheduled coming, the
local situation assumed more peaceful
proportions than had been expected
for Kruttschnitt has declared that he
will meet any and all members of the
federation of shop employes that may
ask for a conference.

pains that the world shall always as

Panama-Pacific exposition and hun
dreds of hotel registers are showing
just "1915" in the residence column in
stead of "San Francisco." An obliging
clerk will explain to the unenlightened
and thus "19i5" becomes a universal
synonym for "San Francisco."
Frank L. Short, ttve Fresno attorney,
has ■written to President Moore from
Florence, Italy, suggesting that the
people of San Francisco should waste
no time in smoothing out the wrinkles
in the city's face. He advocates the
planting of flowers, grass and shrubs

vitation to Quatriene Conference In

tion of leading horticulturists of the

this city. In his letter of invitation the
president said:
California, by virtue of its mild
climate and the consequent range
and value of its products, is th**
most important agricultural state
of the American Union, and the

TWO FOREST FIRES

Flames, Thought Work of In

[Special Dispalch to The Call]
FRESNO, Aug. 27—Two forest fires,
thought to be of incendiary origin,
were extinguished in the mountains
early this morning after a band of
men had fought the flames since late
Friday night. More than 2,000 acres
of timber land was burned by the fire.
The first fire was discovered on the
Bethel ranch near the north fork of the
San Joaquin river. One hour after this
fire was discovered another fire broke
out on the Shaler ranch, five miles
distant from the first blaze. This fact
has led the men in the vicinity to be
lieve that both fires were of incendiary
origin. .The first fire would have been
extinguished with very little loss had
not the force of men been divided to
fight the other fire. To stop the rag
ing flames it was necessary to call
upon the power company force at Big
Creek.

[Special Ditpaich to The Call]
STOCKTON, Aug. 27.—The city coun
cjl will soon adopt an ordinance revo
lutionizing traffic regulations in the
city streets. Automobiles must not ex
ceed 10 miles an hour in the business
district and 20 miles in the residence

that the justices will use discretion
in such cases should arrests result.

will no longer be permitted The streets
are improved and the council consid
ers the thoroughfares the proper place
for bicycle riders.
All vehicles must keep to the right
side of the street, and vehicles wish
ing to turn to the left shall pass the
middle of the intersection before turn-
ing. Vehicles turning have the right
of way over those approaching in the
same direction.

backed to the curb to remain in such
a position longer than 30 minutes.
While backed, the horses must be
turned at right angles so as not to
block trafflc.j
All streetcars must stop within 100
feet in case of fire. It shall be un
lawful at all times to leave a vehicle
within 20 feet of a fire hydrant. Horses
shall not be left -untied and automo

Local Matron Describes Year of
Torment and Then Speedy
Relief
Thinks Coming o! Munyon Hete
Was Blessing to the Bay
Cities
"After I have suffered a year the
torments of perdition a.rM when I find
a quick and certain way to get rid of
it all—then I feel like passing; the good
news along to the rest of the world.
I think I had the worst case of stom
ach trouble on record. I grew thin
and weak and dripped sweat on the
least ex-ertion. I couldn't sleep or tat
or work or play. Life was misery.
Than I tried this new treatment we
are hearing about —and now I am a
well woman."
This was the statement yesterday of
Mrs. A. S. Stone, who lives at 243 Lake
street. She said:
"I think the coming to San Fran
cisco of Prof. James M. Munyon was
one of the best things that has ever
happened here. I was afflicted with
a most peculiar form of indigestion.
I was not able to eat anything, hard
ly, without distress, and I felt myself
gradually losing in strength and vital
ity. I can truthfully say that I am
now practically cured, after taking a
full course of Munyon's medicines, and
that I can now sleep like a girl and
partake of food that a few weeks ago
would give me great misery."
Munyon's theories continue to grow
in favor here. His offices In the Flan
nery building, 702 Market street, and
in Oakland in the Macdonough build
ing. Fourteenth street and Broadway,
and also in San Jose, in the Phelan
building, have been thronged with
visitors and patients. Munyon ha* a
large staff of physicians in his em
ploy, all of whom are experts on the
subject of his theories, and they givf>
full and frank advice to all sick per
sons without charge.—Adv.
