Schneider, the baker who yester- @ay had a full of unio! from Baltimore, bad pat hora ll off tort gion them rotnta tickets. ‘Tonight hia old men go beck to work in a body, MR. SCHNEIDER'S COMPLAINT. In conversation with a Star reporter this morning he said: ‘ We have been badly treated throughout. Together with the rest of the boss bakers I agreed to put up the new rules in my shop and then to stand by them. The men ref to agree to them and insisted that they be removed, I asked for time to con- ler and to confer with the others, They said that unless the rales come down they would quit work at once. And that is just what they did. They did not even stop to finish the dough they were work- ing C3 but left it in the troughs to spoil, Men whom I have employed steadily and without any trouble, some of them from ten to twenty years. left without an hour’s notice. As a result I had @300 worth of bread stuff spoil in my shop. Now, I say that was not fair treatment. One of my drivers, who hasbeen with me for fourteen years and has received from $16 to $30 a week, left my Wagon standing where it was and in two hours was ing for Havenner and carrying his bread over my old route. EMPLOYERS DID NOT HANG TOGETHER. “I went to Baltimore yesterday,” said Mr. Schneider, “and succeeded in getting more men than I seeded, and I was able to supply some of the other bosses. Yesterday we held a meet- ing and then I found that some of the leadin; boss bakers had weakened and would not keep their promise to stick to the agreement. What was there left but to give in? An officer of our association who should bave been ‘the last man to yield, especi- ally after the promises he made the association, is out this morning with canvas signs fastened on his wagons to the effect that he is in harmony with the union and bas had no trouble. Unless we were united it ‘Was useless to hold out, and all that is left is for us all to give in.” THE QUESTION OF HOURS. When asked by the reporter if there would be any further trouble about the men working twelve hours Mr. Schneider said: “I do not get twelve hours work, and what is more, I do not ask it. The men say they work twelve hours, but they don't. There are more nine-hour jobs there are twelve. They may be here twelve hours, but during the night they stop twice to lunch and the time they take to dress comes out of that. I am satisfied with ten hours if Ican get ny but I want all rests to come out of their jime.”” ; WHAT I3 SAID AT BAVENNER'S, At Havenner’s things are all running smoothly, as if nothing had happened. Mr. Graves told » Sran reporter that he thought the bosses had been too hasty in their action, “There was no need to take any stand yet awhile,” said he. “We should ‘have waited until the journeymen demanded something before in- sisting upon any regulations to which we should have known they would object. 1 bave avoided publicity in this matter, but our position may as well be understood. The obnoxious rules were adopted at meeting at which we were not represented. We Were given a copy and told to hang them up. When the men refused to sign we decided that it was not the time nor the proper reason for beginning a fight that would burt both The rules came down and we; having no trouble whatever. The whole matter originated in the belief that the journeymen intended of the Ist of May to ask for shorter hours or more pay. If they do ask for it it will be tim enough then to consider the question, bul what's the use of crossing a bridge before it comes in sight? It was a piece of folly to aries set of objectionable rules on the men at such a time, “The rules may or may not be well enough, but it was decidedly a bad time—just when brad were holding their celebration Saturday night. For the present we intend to let mat- ters take their natural course.” MR. SCHAPER WILL TAKE M18 MEN BACK. Mr. Chas. Schafer, the baker of 420 414 street southwest, told astaz reporter that he had a force of non-union men at work. ‘‘However,” said he, “no committee has been to call on me with reference to the trouble. The men left me; I did not discharge them. Any toward a return must be taken by them me by me. Yes, I presume I would take them back and send my present force back to Balti- more, I do not see what else there is for me to do. But, just the same, I do not think the men have acted in a square or manly manner atall. They stopped with- out warning or without asking for a conference. They saply left our bread stand- ing in the troughs to spoil on our hands with- out considering the cost to us, who had given therh employment and fair wages for years.” This rnoon it fas reported that two or three of the bakerics were still hoiding out, sides. are - TUESDAY, but it was expected they would give in by night. —>—_— THE EXTRADITION TREATY. Additional Crimes for Which Great Britain Will Surrender Fugitives. The convention supplementary to the tenth article of the treaty of 1842 between Great Britain and the United States concluded at Washington, July, 12, 1889, and ratifications exchanged at London, March 11, 1890, was proclaimed today.

It is generally expected that the latest city post office bill, selecting the east end of the triangular square at the corner of the avenne, 9th and O streets, will become a lew, and pend- ing ite passage by the Senate, to which it@has been favorably reported by com- mittee, a great many guesses are being made asto the character of the building to be erected. No plan has yet been adopted, but it was that prepared by Architect Poin- | end dexter of this city which was before the Honse committee when it set- tled upon this site, Mr, has been at work this for about revit py eo liny ao Lae by the committee and its approval by the architect of Treasury have been causes considerable Bratification to i estimate DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED BUILDING. It isto be of some light stone, probably granite, piled in an artistic mass to the height usually assumed by eight-etory buildings, al- though this is to have but five. _ The style of the architecture is Roman clas- sical, not jue, being a compromise laisness of the latter and the — floridity the classical, as it is sometimes in’ a, The effect from directly in front of the apex of the triangle will be that of an im- mensely high tower, of good broad in front of which are successiv lower the to a front two stories in height, on top of which is ~ —— pee a Seen <tg seengene uildiug Ww: posing, height increasing Ton the east by the already-mentioned roofs ntil the tower looms up in a square solidity, trimmed off by an ornamental balustrade. Then the roof sinks trifle on the nex: section toward the west, and at the extreme western end is a smaller tower somewhat lower than the other. The tower section is about in the center of the building end is re- cessed on the avenue side about eight or ten feet. This affords opportunity in the third story for a balcony, over which is a fist roof. The windows are so arrauged as to present the effect of avet of arches on either side of the main doorway, each set consisting of three arches three stories in height. This gives square windows in the first and second stories and round-topped ones in the third. The arches are it 20 feet wide and are slightly recessed. THE ENTRANCE, The main entrance isto be on the avenue side, an immense archway fully 25 feet in width, recessed about 16 feet, thus giving a generous vestibule ie which will afford ample entrances and exits. Two pairs of double doors will lead directly into the building, with other doors ing east and west through the side walls Of the vestibule. The public will not be ieee to climb any but the front steps of the building in order to transact the ordinary mail business. HOW THE SPACE WILL BE USED. The delivery rooms are to be in the center of the building directly opposite the entrance. The registry division will occupy rooms im- mediately on the west, with the money order office in the round at the east end. The carriers’ distributing sp gees will be on the second floor, to which four ele- vators will run. These will be placed in the rear, or west end, where there will be a minor entrance into the small tower for carriers and employes, The C street front will be similar to that on the avenue with the single exception that the main tower section will not be recessed. Here the wagons for the carrying of the maii will assemble around large platforms to be erected at a height above the street, The grade in the vicinity of this building is very nearly level, so that there will be no fall- ing of the visible lines around the base. The first-story lower sills of the windows will be some distance above the top of a man’s head. The ceilings are all to be very high, in order to let in an abundance of light, of the stories above the first being equal. THE ORNAMENTAL PILLARS, Here and there on the fronts are pillars and pilasters, which will be of the same material as the building, probably polished. Mr. Poin- dexter has never decided as to the character of the capitals to these pillars, but they will be something in eeping with the general decorations, A little carving in cor- ners and around turns finishes off the fronts, and a handsome balustrade on the second roof lends richness that would be lost with flat lines, With the exception of the east point and the arches of the main door and the win- dows there are nocurves in the plan. ————___ LAW ENOUGH ALREADY. The Assessor Against the Pending Bill “‘To Encourage Co-operation,” &c. The Commissioners have before them House bill 185,*‘To encourage co-operation and to pro- vide for the formation of associations in the Dis- trict of Columbia for the purpose of conducting any reliable businces and dividing the profits among the members thereof,” The Commission- erssubmitted the bill to the assessor for hisviews, In his report upon the bill today he says: “The general incorporation act, approved May 15, 1870, provides for the incorporation of institu- tions of learning, societies for benevolent, charitable, educational, literary, musical, scien- tific, religious and other purposes; manufactur- ing, agricultural, mining, mechanical, insur- ance, mercantile, transportation, market and savings bank corporations, cemetery associa- tions, boards of trade and railroad companies, all un Proper legal restraings and safe- aards. In my — Says Assessor Trim- le, the inclosed bill is subject to the objection that it opens the door to the formation and or- ganization of irresponsible organizations which, under the color of a legal status, might possi- bly impose upon the confidence of the general publiz, and in view of the liberal feutures of our present incorporation laws and the privi- lege which our citizens possess in having national legislature so easily accessible for tions and asking favor in special cases, constrained to believe that it would be unwise to adopt said bill in its present form.

Gazette, Tae Wassinatox Stan has kept step with the growth and progress of the national capital and has become a fitting ‘journal for such a home, In the last decade it has shown as mach enterprise and energy as any metropolitan Bewspaper in the country. Outof ite four pages it has expended itself into, at times, as many as twenty, all filled with fresh, instruct- ive and entertaining matter. It gleans all the news of the day and the columns of few morn- ing papers give more. Its tone is most con- servative and it deals with all the great ques- tions of the day with fairness and impartiality. We consider Taz Stan the most complete eveniug paper published in the country. By means of the costliest machinery it is one of the most perfectly printed. It has now at- tained a daily circulation of over 30,000 and it is constantly increasing. It richly deserves the great success which now attends it, 20 Death of Mrs. Katharine Pearson. ae : H 3 & i MARCH 25, 1890. by | The Quarterly Meeting of the W. C. T. U, Held Today.

Several articles of furniture have been contributed by members and others, and several $5 contributions were received today. NO MONEY FOR POLITICAL PURPOSES. ‘The impression having in some way gone round | abroad that the W. C. T. U. contributes finan- cial aid tothe prohibition party, Mrs. Schell read from the official journal of the organization an editorial statement that the W. C. T. U. has never as a body contributeda dollarto the oy of any political party, and that if any- thing has been done in that line it has been done by individua! members. Rev. Mr. Wiley of the National reform asso- ciation addressed the meeting briefly on the coming convention of that society and Mrs. Hunt of Boston, the international superintend- ent of temperance education, who is visiting the public schools here, made a twenty-minute talk on her special work.
