July 31.—Scenes about the lottery platform, where the drawing for land on the Kiowa Comanche reservations Is being con ducted. were a repetition ef those of Monday. During the night and early morning the rowds had been swelled by several thousand eager people who had arrived in prairie schooners or on trains. Many slept again upon the hillsides around the wheels of fortune, to be on hand early. Othesrs came at the break of day and secured positions as close to th«- platform as possible. When the second day's drawing com menced It was estimated that over 30.. 000 people were on hand.

July 31.—The labor troubles In this city reached their cul mination during the evening when the Water Front Federation ordered a gen eral strike on the docks of San Fran cisco. Oakland. Mission Rock and Port Costa, to go into effect at once. The resolution to strike, which re ci ived the unanimous endowment of every delegation to the federation was short, but its effect will be to cause a temporary paralysis of tue sn:pping business of San Francisco, such as has not been known before. It reads as follows: 'The full membership of the Water Front Federation refuses to work at the docks of San Francisco. Oakland. Port Costa and Mission Kock. The Fteamcrs Bonita anil Walla Walla, with mail and passengers now In th" stream, will be allowed to go to sea The meeting of the federation was a long one and there was much heat od argument, but when the resolution canie to a vote every delegate present voted In favor of th-1 strike.
