friscoTs facing starvation
(Special Dispatches to the Daily Alaskan)
San Francisco, May 1.? San Francis
co is facing a famine. At a meeting of
the municipal committee, which has
charge of the relief work, Mayor
Schmitz announced that there is food
in sight for only three weeks. He said
that seven hundred car loads of food
had been received and that there arc
one hundred and eighty car loads com
ing. Unless more money shall be
received, he says, in three weeks the
suffering will be greater than it was
just after the fire, and prospects for a j
longer continued famine will be very j
bad.
The meeting wired Secretary Taft,
asking for the remainder of the $2,500,
000 appropriated by congress. Taft
replied that there is no more of the
fund. He distributed the appropriation
to the army commissaries for forward
ing supplies, except 8300,000 which was
sent to former Mayor Plielan, chairman
of the financial committee of the mu
nicipal relief committee.

IMPf HIAllSf PLOT
Paris, May 1.? The disturbances
which were threatened to take place
at today's May day demonstrations have
been summarilly checked by the gov
ernment, which arrested every known
labor leader and every imperialist in
the republic. The federation has
been thoroughly demoralized.
Demonstrations to be accompanied
by trouble on today have been threat
ened for some time. Several days ago
the government became convinced that
the labor troubles were due to the acti
vities of imperialists who are seeking
to affect the result of the approaching
elections. A search was instituted at
once and in some places arms were
discovered and many important papers
were found at the homes of royalisis.
Arrests followed and many Bonaparte
leaders and other royalists have been
apprehended daily.
When discovered the royalists
ceased to disguise their interest in the
approaching labor troubles and the
people became panic stricken. They
feared another civil war and began
fleeing from Paris and other large
cities. The government issued a
proclamation, beseeching the people to
remain at home and be calm. All law
abiding citizens were requested to re
main indoors today. After the
issuance of the proclamation, the en
tire army was placed at the assistance
of the police department, and whole
sale arrests were made.
It is believed the crisis has been
passed.
