Long Hours, Poor Pay and Tyranical Oppression, The following is an official statement from the executive offi of the Broth erhood of Telegraphers, concerning the difficulties existing between telegraph companies and and their employes. This statement is furnished to the pre der that the public may not be deceived by unauthorized statements which may eminate from irresponsible parties. On Monday July 16ty, the executive hoard of the Brotherhood of Telegraph ers of the Unite ates and Canada pre sented to th itive efficers of the | several com Al telegraph companies | of the United States and Canada, a me placing before the companies the grievances of the operators and employes generally, and petitioning for the redress of the same. The companies to whom the memorial was presented embrace the following: In Canada, the Great North western and the Mutual Union, 1In the United States, the Western Union, Mu- | tual Union, American Rapid, Baltimore {and Ohio (Commercial), New York American District, and the New York Mutual District telegraph companie also, the Metropolitan telephone com- pany of New Pork and the Chicago tele- 4 phone company of Chicago, SPEER'S t - Port, Grape Wine!

The memorial of the Canadian Com- mercial telegraph employes is identical with that presented by the American em- ployes, with the cxception of Section 1, which asks for a fixed compensation for Sunday work of forty cents per hour; Section 3, that salaries now pni-ll shall be inc nccording to the following schedule:—Employes now ving 865 per month and month and upward, 10 per cent increase; employes receivi from £45 to 865 per month, 16 per increase; employes receiving 830 to 845 per month, 20 per cent increase; and that thelowest salary paid shall be 836 per month. This applies to all practical tele- graphic employes, suchasoperators, clerks and linemen, The American Memorial asks for the linemen, that eight hours shall constitute rate of two day’s payshall be allowed for all Sunday work; that the lowest salary paid a regular lineman shall be sixty-five dollars per month and for helpers fifty dollars per month, and that the duties of linemen shall be confined solely to their legitimate work. The American Mamorial petitions on behalf of the first-class Wheatstone oper- ators, that they shall be paid at the rate of seventy five dollars per month, and for the second class operator sixty dollars per month; that thair warking hours shall be the same as tne mosew uperators. This completes the several Memorinls. (The first-class Wheatstone operators are at presént time receiving but $50 per month, and second class operators but $30.) The members of the Brotherhood claim | that their organization is the result of the tyranical an nn‘unt treatinent meted out to them during the past ten years, and that their demands are not unreasonable, in view of the systematic reductions that have been forced upon , them at different times by the Western Union Telegraph Company, which fixes the standard of wages for the United States and Canada They give the following suggestive facts in support oi their claims: Between the years 1870 and 1874, two general reduc- tions took place throughout the country, amounting to about forty-five per cent. From 1874 to 1877, local superintendents and managers in order to curry favor with the company, vied with each other in economic suggestions. In 1878, the executive officers seeing the men submit 80 tamely to this process, became bolder, and announced the famous (or infamous) sliding scale or general reduction of from five to twenty-five per cent on all em- ployees, This instrument had the quali- ty of sliding but one way, (dlownward), and was followed by many comtemptible and underhand measures. Protests were sent from all points with- out avail. The company's official jour- nal containing the order, with an audac ity unparalleled, had published on the same page, the quarterly report. showing increased profits, and no word of explan- ation in the editorial columns as to the inconsistency. Salaries were dupreuiut- ing everywhere. When the - tion” was announced, it was mistaken at first for an olive branch, but it was soon plain that it was concocted for the pur- pose of cutting deeper than the previous method, In 1876 a secret circular cmanated from the execulive department, instructing superintendants that all vacancies must be filled at five dollars less per month, than received by previous occupants. This infamous scheme had the desired effect, as urtder its working, salaries drop- ped in six months to forty dollars and klty dollars—north, south, east and west. Everybody became discouraged and de- moralized. Those who could leave the business did so. The outlook until 1880 was very dark, all classes being dismayed and indignant. During that- year the American Union and other competing telegraph companies, compelled the Western Union Company to slightly ad- vance some salaries in order to retain their best men, but immediately after the congolidation of these companies, the sys- tematic reduction of salaries was again inaugurated. After the shooting of Pres- ident Garfield, the volume of busi in creased to such an extent, that further reductions for the time being ceased. 1t is quite probable that the formation of | Local Assemblies of the Brotherhood throughout the United States and Canada has prevented any further reductions. The members of the Brotherhood feel ihat they are now strong enough to war- rant thew in demandivg of the various telegraph companies a partial vestoration to the standard of salavies paid before the merciless and systematio “‘squeezes” were made. The following is a bricf explana- tion of the several clauses embraced in the bill of grievances presented to the tel- BUNDAY WORK. to the well known a day’s work; that compensation at the || | :lx;lu h companies of the United States Tt is almost unnecessary to call atten- fact that all branches of labor, skilled and unskilled, when required to perform Sunday work, receive extra, and in many cases double pay for such work, which is not the case with telegraphic employes, who are present required to perform such service without extra compensation. at HOURS OF LAROR, Telegraph operators are required possess skill of a high order; their ocen pation is confining and continuous and upon them is concentrated the gravest responsibilities, and this responsibility is | It wears alike | constant and frmesite upon mind and body and impairs the elasticity of both, while it always « mands the best conditions of both in or- |late Mr. William Orton, president of the [imported. | Western ~ Union telegraph company, | | whose executive ability and general | knowledge on all subjects peitaining to | telegraphy cannot be questioned, testified | before a “congressional committee that telegraph operators could not perform daily more than six hours of continuous [labor without endangering their health | consequently the demand for eight hours for day and seven hours for niht work is believed to be reasonable and just, In | a number of the principal offices seven | honrs constitute a night's work at the | present time, but it is claimed by them that they have no uniform system of working hours, it being optional with lo- cal managers to regulate the same, and who to curry favor with their superiors | frequently impose extra working hours | upon the unprotected operator in order that they may show economical manage- ment. In explanation of the demand for a general increase of 15 per cent, it is only necessary to call attention to the fre- quent_reductions that have been made, notwithstanding the net profits of hand- i s are much greater than fn years, occasioned by improved machinery and more skillful labor now employed. WHEATSTONE OPERATORS, The seeming exhorbitant demand in | favor of the wheatstone operators is ex- | plained as follows: Twelve months ago a | number of experts were imported from England, with the understanding that as | soon as the system was put in practical operation they would be fairly compen- sated, On rinu first of March of the present year they began work, and were informed by the manager that their al- lowance was to be €50 per month, at the same time giving them to understand that as they succeeded in developing the system their position would improve. Five months have_elapsed, and although they have been fully engaged during that time, and are now doing nearly throe times the amount of work done in the opening month, they have not yet re- ceived any indication that their interests or salaries, whichfthey deem wholly inad- equate, are to be improved. ATISTICS, hood of Telegraphers has a eral statistician, and also a local stat- an in nearly every city and town in | the United States and Canada. Complete statistics have been gathered, and show The average pay inl operators in the United per month; average for g rators of Canada is $37.49 | per month; average of railroad operators in the Unite ates is $39.50; average | for railroad operators in Canada is $29.12, | It should be borne in mind that operators are not allowed extra compensation for Sunday work, and that the railroad operators at stations where but one man is employed are required to work from fourteen to sixteen hours per day, and on many roads are required to sleep in or | convenient to their offices, so that they may be called to receive orders for de- | layed, and obtain help for wrecked trains. These calls on many roads are of | frequent occurrence. comme | — STLY SPARK. Over a Million Dollars' Worth of| Property Destroyed by Fire | in New York, New Yorg, July 19.—At about 10:30 o'clock this morning a spark from an en- | gine fell into a pile of jute which had | just been landed in Harbes dock from | the ship ‘“Lawrence Delap,” from Cal- cutta. The dock was filled with a heap jute and coffee. The flames spread with rapidity and in a few minutes the ontire dock was ablaze, The ‘‘Delap” was the first vessel to catch fire and all her rigging was burned before she could be towed out. Next to her on the south side of the dock was the ship ‘‘Perse- verance,” also from Calcutta, which arrived yesterday, and on the north side lay the snip ‘‘Col. Adams,” from Calcutta. To both these vessels the flames communicated, and the crews jumped overboard for safecy. When the firemen reached the dock the supports of the roof gave way, burning one dozen firemen and the linck hands beneath the ruins, A rescuing party was quickly formed and the men dragged out from the blazing rafters. None were dead but all more or less burned and bruised. Just then a row occurredin the crowd and the chief of the batallion gave orders to clear the dock as tne ship Lawrence Delap, which was now on fire above and below, a8 her hold contained 4,600 pounds of salt petre. A rush was made by the crowd to the further end of the dock. While this was going on the hoisting derrick, from which the supports had been burned, fell over on the wharf with A CO! a crash, knocking two dockmen overboard. Custom House Inspector Harradin, in_attempting to escape from the ship Colonel Adams, was burned about the face and hands. The ships Perseverance and Colonel Adams had by this time been towed far out into the the stream, and the tugs poured streams into their holds, The eflorts of the fire- men were mainly directed to extinguish- ing the flames on board the Lawrence De- lap, on which it was momentarily feared an explosion would take plac At 11:30 she was still blazing fiercely. The extent of the losses are unknown, but are doubt- less heavy. Larer.—The district officer at Har- beck’s docks states the captain of the Lawrence Delap, with his wife and three children, were reported drowned. Two | deck hands were also roported drowned {and a sailor killed by falling timbers, The loss is now estimated betwee $2,000, 000 and §3,000,000, Three men were seen to throw the trunk of Captain Grove, of the ship Law rence Delap overboard, containing $10,- | 000 in vash, and $4,000 worth of jewel ry belonging to his wife. 1t was picked | up by river thieves. The wife and child | of the captain were saved, Twelve five- | men were badly injured by the falling in | of the roof of the pier, bt only one is thought fatally hurt. The ship Delap is burned to the water’s ed, She was valued, with cargo, at $160,000, The | ship Colonel Adams was burmed at the | pier. The bark Perseverance floated out into the stream and burned to the water's edge. The total loss is now estimated at #1,000,000, THE DA1ILY BEE-+OMARA, FRIDAY JULY 20, 1383. * AMERICAN SARDINES. How the Native Herring Becomes 4 | Full-Fledged Foreigner, to | A Maine Industrv Employing Hundreds of | ™* V" " Persons aud Sending Out Thousands of Boxes Daily---The Differ- ent Processes. Correspondence Philadelphia Press known that ve ner of this state. At Eastport there are mineteen places where they turn out sar- dines; at Lubee, three, and along the const at_different ports many others are found. Tho process of preparation is very interesting. To catch the fish small trees or brush are thrust into the bottom of little bays or directly into the main body of water. They arearranged in a line quite close to- gether, running out from the shores some 76 or 100 feet, then curved like a horse- shoe, with a line returning to the shore. In this is placed a net. At the proper tidal moment the net is raised and the fish taken up in scoop nets. The fish are not sardines at all, but small herring. The catch is alwaysvery uncertain, Some- mes only a bushel or two will be taken, and at others so many as to endanger the | safety of the net. After being placed in the boats, they arc at once taken to the packing place and laid upon long tables in heaps. The first step requires the eutting off of the head and the removal of the entrals. The degree of dexterity with which both of these operations is performed is astonish- ing, especially as they are done entirely By ity younp cHilAPen. | THey Sehiter counted one little girl's work during a minute, and found she decapitated and removed the interior portions of eighty fish in that time. Both operations are done with one stroke of the knife. The head is nearly scvered from the body, and the] knife is then pulled slightly away from the fish, removing the one canal which composes the entire digestive arrangement. A large box holding about u bushel lies directly at the feet of each operative, into which the fish slides, while the head is thrown by the same fa- ARTEtEcke GirtoTaiibtiibr, Mo pay for thid work is ten cents for each box full. Some of the more experts make from $1 to $1.50 a day. BROILING AND PACKL The fish are then placed in warm water, which is slightly agitated in order. to cleanse them thoroughly. — After this ne- cessary precaution they are placed on very large gridirons, of which the bars are thin and wide apart, and are then suspended over a_very hot fire, where they are partly broiled. These gridirons are called *“flakes,” and hold about 120 fish. The sardinos are placed in position on the “‘flakes” by little girls, who receive ten cents for filling every hundred. After broiling, the fish are ready for the boxes. These are already prepared with the attractive French Iubels, stating that the inclosed are ‘‘Sardines a I'huile super- ievre,"and others claim to contain “I'huile doline,” but this is false. The oil is cotton-seed, pure and simple, and is not always of the best quality, The first quality of oil is used, however, for those sardines sold as prime. The boxing or packing is another branch of the operation at which the lit- tle people are quite cxpert. A fish is seized in each hand and laid lengthwise in the box, first a head at_the outer end and then « tail. In watching the packing an observer is struck with the idea that it is much easior to put them in the box than to take them out. After the box is full a small quantity of cotton-seed oil, about half a gill, is poured in, and it is then passed to another set of girls, who place the bottoms in position. These fit snugly just inside the outer rim and rest upon a little shoulder of tin, The boxes are now ready for the seal- ers, These men sitat long tables, and each one has a little stove and soldering iron at his side. The box is placed in a little grooved platform, which " forms the top of a revolving frame, extending below the table and worked by the feet. The solder, in long thin sticks or coils, is placed about half an inch _above the end of the hot copper pointed iron, and is rapidly melted, running down along the point and filling up the groove. After slightly scratching with the point of the copper & number or mark to indicate the sealer, whose identity is thereby estab- lished in case of bad work, the boxes are taken to an immense cauldron, where the contents are boiled for two hours, thus completing the cooking process and dis- solving the bones of the fish. THE ¥INAL PROCESSES. After boiling, the boxes are placed side by side, and a small hole is punctured in one corner, in order to {wrnul the air, which was necessarily sealed in the box, to escape. This sometimes comes with a sudden spurt, throwing a tiny stream of steam and hot oil in all directions. Im- mediately after this a boy seals the hole with solder, and the box is then placed with others in a revolving chamber partly filled with sawdust. A few revolutions cleanse them of all dirt and oil, and they are then ready for testing. Each box is taken up separately between' the thumb and finger and slightly pressed, If it yields there is a hole somewhere, through which air enters the box, or there is still some remaining air which did not escape when the box was pierced. It is thrown aside and returned to the sealer, who must pay the value of the box thus spoiled. The final handling is done when the sar- dines are packed in large wooden boxes for shipment, Almost the entire product is shipped to New York whence it is sold to retailers throughout the country. One of the establishments in Lubee prepares about 4,000 boxes daily, When it is remembered that there are nineteen such places in Eastport and many others at different seaport towns, the enormous consumption of the gentle herring masquerading under the nobler title may be seen. The actual cost per box, including all expenses, is five cents. The profit made by the packers sometimes reaches soven and nine cents, but is oftener less.
