10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1895. DRY-G000S MEN'S PICNIC, It Will Be Held at Schuetzen Park, San Rafael, To- Morrow. BENEFIT OF THE SICK FUND. Hundreds of Clerks and Salesmen to Enjoy a Day in the Country. From present indications there will be at Jeast 1500 people take advantage of the pic- nic of the San Francisco Dry-goods Men’s iation to spend a pleasant day at otzen Club Park, near San Rafael, next Sunday. The association, which comprises em- ployes of retail dry-goods houses, was or- ganized about ten years ago, its objects be- ing purely of a benevolent character, such as relieving members or their families when in financial distress, paying sick and funeral benefits and securing employment for its members. Since its organization upward of $10,000 has been vaid outin the various ways mentioned. The picnic will be the first held under the auspices of the association, and is J. P. Weil, Presidept of the Dry-Goods Men’s Association. given for the benefit of its sick fund. Lib- eral encouragement . has been received from the proprietors of the retail stores as well as from the wholesale dealers and job- bers, both in the purchase of tickets and in the cont tion of articles to be dis- posed of as gate pri The first boat will leave the foot of Mar- ket street at A.

Quinlan. whe has been appointed foor manager for next Sunda; LIGOR OF THE FOURTH Council Invited to a Working- men’s Picnic Across the Bay. Also Asked to Countenance a Pro- cesslon of the Unemployed in This City. The Fourth of July proved to be the supreme topic at the Labor Council last night. e No sooner was the meeting called to | order than its discussion was precipitated | by an invitation to participate in a general workingmen’s celebration at Blair's Park across the bay. And this invitation was immediately followed by another to join in a demonstration of distress in this City. The only decisive action the council took | struct the sending of a communi- | was to ir cation to the Fourth of July committee condemning it for its attitude toward union musicians. The in tion from Oakland was voiced mblyman_A. Bretz, who with Shrive and Roberts constituted a ee of three. Mr. Bretz was very caustic in’his criti- cism of those whom he called the pluto- crats of Oakland' (he sometimes used harder names), and stated that the work- ingmen of Oakland, whether organized or not, had taken the same position toward the general Fourth of July parade there ag had “the trades unions of this City relative to the San Francisco parade. In t, they had gone one step further, because they had concluded to have a distinetively inde- pendent turnout in the shape of a dancing picnic, with dancing all day long in the park pavilion. H. N. Shrieve added even more force to Mr. Bretr's words by hoping that organized labor of San Francisco would see its way clear to help the work- ingmen of Alameda County to show their patriotism “inderendemly of the plug-hat riggde.” Mr. Shrieve is’a member of the A.R.T. It was announced that the Alameda Peo- ple’s party county committee would have a meeting to-day to arrange for a big dem- onstration in conjunction with the work- ingmen. *‘It is time.’ said Mr. Bretz, “that those who are robbed and enslaved }1)‘ the money power should draw the ine.’ P. Ross Martin then invited the council to join a parade of poverty which he said the unemployed of the City are getting up. Iie gave the inform n that meetings had been held on C"f Hall avenue and at 115 Turk street, well attended, and an- nounced a big gathering on the Mint steps for to-night, another on the water-front to-morrow and still another meeting for Monday, to be at 115 Turk street. The idea, he explained, was to have all the un- employed of the City turn out in rags and show their condition by marching on Mar- ket street. - Both propositions werc discussed in ex- ecutive session with the result that the; are referred to the different unions, wl:icfi may take such action as they see fit. Delegate Schubert' of the Musicians’ Union reported the trouble with the Fourth of July comnittee as being a de- sire on the part of the committee to cut prices from $8 to $5. Upon the informa- tion being received that the committee had decided t6 hire only non-union men a motion was carried to have a letter of con- demnation sent. i A protest of street employes against any further letting of street-sweeping contracts, whether to the Merchants’ Association or anything else, was read by W. Greenwood, rep: nting the employes. He said a Joeeting had been held during the after- demanding the street sweeping to be done under the immediate supervision of the Superintendent of Streets at a minimum ser diem of $2 and an eight-hour day. ’l’hc council indorsed this position em- phatically. On the representation of Delegate Rusk of the Theatrical Employes’ Union the boyetott on the Grove-street Theater was raised. ; Outside the meeting Ross Martin said the procession of unemployed on the Fourth is to be headed by Mrs. Addie Swain on horseback carrying an American flag and accompanied by a platoon of women. THE HORTICULTURISTS. The Removal of Their Headquarters to Be Discussed at the Next Meeting. The State Board of Horticulture will meet in about a week, and it is expected that the meeting will be very interesting. Several matters will be considered, but the most important will be the question whether the headguarters will remain at 230 Sutter street or be moved into another building. The committee having this matter in charge consists of Mark McDonald of Santa Rosa, Edward Cooper of Santa Bar- bara and J. L. Mosher of San Francisco. It was proposed that the committee see the City Hall Commissioners and ascertain if apartments can be secured in the mnew City Hall for the Commissioners until the next meeting of the Legislature, when it is believed the usual appropriation will be made, which not obtained this year. Mr. Lelong asserts that the organization will be kept up whether there is an appro- priation or not. S e a special | at 6:30 p. M., thus giving ample time for all | to enjoy the features of the excelient pro- | | myself, personally, but for that organi The Commissioners have already sub- scribed enough to keep the commissi running for a year, and similar subs tions have been promised for next year. AN DWATON 10 LAWLER Grand Rally Around tHe Chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, General Barnes Makes a Witty Speech of Welcome to the Commander. Colonel Thomas G. Lawler, commander- in-chief of the Grand Army of the Repub- lic, was accorded a reception last night which amounted almost to an ovation in its nature. The commander-in-chief met at the Occidental Hotel by the V eran Guard and the different local posts and escorted to the Metropolitan Temple, where the reception was tendered him. The big auditorium was decorated with flags and banners and the platform was strewn with sweet smelling flowers woven into National emblems. The hall was packed with Grand Armv men, members | of the Women’s Relief Corps and others. C. Mason Kinne was chairman for the evening, and after stating the object of the meeting, he introduced | Charles E. Wilson, department com- mander of California and Ne The latter spoke the organiz. and the caus Roman soldier,” he said, *“when he r turned from the glory of battle received | he plaudits of the people, but he fou enslave his fellow-man not to fr He was a soldier of fortune. ur soldiers.

The speaker denounced the attempt to lower the pensions as un-American, un- warranted and in conflict with the law. General W. H. L. Barnes followed Colonel Lawler in a masterful effort; and was continually interrapted by applause, laughter and cheers. He began: I wonder if there were ever gathered to- gether so many men who had traveied so far and thought of so much as the soldiers here who had heard the war sor band.

He said that the struggle for the perpetuity of this great Republic was not over and touched on the labor troubles, which, he predicted, would yet cause dissension and strife throughout the land. The trouble witk us, he said, was that we did not love our coun- try half enough. He continued : But 1 have been asked to welcome you, sir, on behalf of California. There are 165,000 square miles in California. That is more terri- tory than there isin New York, and the New England States thrown in. Butwe have loss population to the square mile than any oiher State in the Union. But we are waking up, sir. We are having fiestas. I don’t suppose that you know what fiestas are.

MERE MATTER OF ECONOMY. Clean, Healthful Material Is Avail- able for the Pur- pose. . The cause of the complaints made in vesterday’s Carr by people living in the neighborhood of ssion flats that they have been burdened by increased filth from Channel street, is traced to the economy of the Board of Harbor Com- missioners. The Francisco Bridge Company have opened up a broader waterway for commerce along the channel, but they dumped the mud and sewage on the flats instead of carrying it to the bay, endangering the health of the people. The pumping of the dredgings of-Chan- dredgers of the San |Pla t | ceived their degrees were two young men his salarv, $1000 a year, ‘and such other supplies as he obtnir!:s from the State will be charged against him.

Tharp will be probably cut from $165 to $125 a month, and that of his assistant, Charles E. Alden, from §110 t0 $100. Dr. Manstield will have to con- tent himself with $155 a month iustead of $175 if the contemplated change goes through. Other reductions are: Frank de Pue, $10 a month; Miss McElroy, $10 a month; steward and gatckeeper, $10 a month each, The aggrezate of the reduc- tions will be about $500 a month. Itis stated that there will be no change in the jute department salaries until after an investigation into the working of this part of the prison. % A general cut of a similar kind, though less radical, is in contemplation at the Folsom State Prison. | CLERIOAT, DEGREES CONFERRED. ;3 Honored at the Washington University.

That con- ! tract was made by the State Harbor Com- | mission and certain property-owners on | the one part and the San Francisco Bridge Company on the other. But the property-owners who signed the much affected by these deposits of filth as the residents further to | the west. Many of the workingmen em- ployed in the lumber-yards are among | thoge whose stomachs are rendered unfit | for the proper digestion of food, but the | most vizgorous complainants are the people | who live in the neighborhood. | The State owns the land lving along the north bank of the channel, and the Southern Pacific Railroad Company those along the sonth side. The lessees of the outhern Pacific Company, for the pur- poses of the contract, are considered the | ‘property-owners. ‘These lessees, for the most part being large lumber dealers, de- | sired—with the Harbor Commi: n—the | dredging of inel street. They and | other property - owners in the section flooded entered into the contract to shoot the dredgings into that portion of the | flats. | This filling up of the flats has crowded | the filth from the sewage which came up | in the dredgings and that of the dumps al- | ready there into the very faces of the | people whose complain re recited in sterday’s CALL. The dredging was done | ixth streets, and the might have been carried out into the bay but for the economy practiced by | e Board of Harbor Commissioners. In | saving'an expense to the State it is com- | plained that the board has endangered the | heaith if not the lives of the residents in that portion of the City, though it is thought that the present filth is no worse | than that already existing in the Seventh- | street dumps. The Channel-street sewer terminates at Seventh street and tt sewage flows thence into the open wate way in Channel street to the bay. At high | tide Mjssion flats have been submerged. “The filth on those flats.” said C. E material “isg | the | sin the open waterway of Chanmnel At low tide it is of an inky-black | color and produces an unbearable stench. It is certainly desirable that those Mis- sion flats be filled up and brought to the street grades, but the material from the Chunnel-streetdredgings is not desirable for that purpose. That simply adds to the filth that has already made its presence felt by the reside in that section. It is foul and breeds disease. The whole trouble | could beremedied by the securing of clean material lying along the front of the bay. There is also good material for this pur- pose in the Potrero hills. There is no lack of available material, but I do not wish to | be considered in the light of an adviser. These are merely facts.” THE HATHAWAY WILL, Mzs. Harriot Barro Thinks Her Daugh- | ter Was of Unsound Mind When She Died. Mrs. Harriet Callman Barro, aged 91,7 through her son, who was appointed her guardian ad litem, has brought suit to set, aside the will of her daughter, Mary Ann | Hathaway, who died last July. Mrs. | Hathaway left an estate valued at $60,000. | Mrs. Barro was left the income of $5000 during her life, the principal to go to the | divorced wife of the testator’s brother, | Mrs. Hattie A. Barro, at the death of the old tady. To her brother, Charles Barro, the deceased left $500. The rest of her relatives were not mentioned, and the residue of the estate was left to charity and in small bequests made in friendship. The grounds uvon which the contest is | made is_that the testatrix was of unsound mind. Itis also claimed that Mrs. Hattie Barro, the daughter-in-law, was appointed Mrs. Barro’s guardian in general in Solano County, so as to prevent a contest of the will. Mrs. Barro would have to contest through her guardian, and the guardians’ interests, demanding that the will stand as made, it would not be a very successful contest. Accordingly Charles” Barro was appointed her guardian ad litem for the purposes of the contest. ECONOMY AT SAN QUENTIN. Salaries of the Warden, Physician and Others Cut Down—Similar Prun- ing at Folsom. Beginning July 1, the salaries of the warden, physician and other officers at the State prison at San Quentin are likely to be reduced. ‘Warden Hale had been receiving $250 a month, besides an allowance of $1600 a year wherewith to econduct his house.

THE FREE LABOR BUREAL, It Will Be Open for Business by the Middle of Next Month. Commlsslonar.i»Fltz.arald Asks for the Co-Operation of All Employers. Labor Commissioner Fitzgerald and Deputy Dam are preparing for the opening | of ‘the free labom burean on July 15. By that time they will be prepared to furnish skilled and unskilled help for any business and industry in the State. Their first move will be to send to manufacturers, farmers and business men circulars setting. forth the aims and objects of the bureau. The circular is as follow: On the 15th day of July, 1895, the Bureau of Labor Statistics will inaugurate free employ- ment department for the purpose cf assisting the vast number of deserving unemployed to obtain work. From information gathered from various sources, it is estimated that the enroll- ment, within a short time after the opening of the registration of unemployed, will amount to the prodigious number of from 10,000 to 15,000 persons seeking employment. In order to achieve success in this undertak- ing the burean will have to rely largely upon the co-operation of farmers, fruit-growers and packers, hop-growers, manufacturers, mer- chants, ‘contractors, millmen, etc.. who are re- quested to fill their requirements from the bureau. To this end forms have been prepared which will be sent to the above employers on applica- tion. To make this feature successful the bu- reau will do anything within its power, but yond the regisiration is dependent upon the assistance of the employe® The system adopted for the conduct of this department is so arranged that after a trial of persons employed under it, provided the employer follows the instructions whick will accompany each person sent out, the burean will be in a position to reward only careful, conscientious and deserving persons. "Trusting that you will give this matter your favorable consideration, I remain, ete. The instructions mentioned are simply requests for the employer to fill out and mail two cards to the bureau. The first card will be presented by the person en- gagea, and the blanks are filled out so as “I have this day engaged — —— wages.”’ Across the end of the card ning to the public that the holder of the card is under no conditions entitled to solicit alms, transportation or other ex- penses. This is to prevent impostors and undeserving persons from obtaining cards from the bureau to be used for begging purposes. There are many who would im- pose upon the huru'u]'if no such warning ublic. The second card states ““I have this day discharged —," and the reasons for the discharge are to be given by the employer. These cards will establish the character of the employee as they will show whether the dismissal is on account of the lack of work, inefliciency, ill-health, intemper- ance, etc. In avery short time the com- missioner will be able to tell who is desery- ing of help and who is not. The former will be able to secure other positions, but the latter will be blacklisted. Within a few months only tried men will be sent out by the burean with recommendations, Commissioner Fitzgerald desires to cor- rect the statement that he has turned over the management of the bureau to any society or organization of unemployed. While he will be in a measure assisted by several organizations, and while he desires the assistance of all he will not let the free Jabor bureau be run in the interests of an; body or society more than another. > ar o Tue Royal Baking Powder is the purest and strongest baking powder made and has received the highest award at all the great international and State fairs‘Wherever ex- hibited in competition with others. — e e o Sues an Italian Society. Vincent Galli, an insane person, by his guar- dian Matteo Campaguo, brought suit in the Justices’ Court yesteraay against the Italian Dersaglieri Mutual Benevolent Society, com- monly known and styled Societa di Mutua Soccorso della Compagnia Bersaglieri Ital iani, a corporation. Galli became a me: ber of the society in January, 1882, and re- mained thereafter a member in good stending. The society guarantees to its members sicl benefits in the sum of $3 per week. ‘On June 16, 1890; Galli_was adjudged insane and sent 10 Agnews,. and is_still confined there. He claims, or his guardian does, that the society owes him $186 for sick benefits, which it re- fuses to pav. FIRE N AN (CEHOUSE. Offices of the Union Company at Fourth and Berry Streets Destroyed. QUITE A HEAVY LO0SS RESULTS. The Blaze Is Supposed to Have Been Started In a Loft by an Un- known Tramp. A big blaze was disdovered at 6:45 ‘Hst evening in the two-story frame buildings on Fourth and Berry streets, owned and ‘| oceupied by the Union ice Company. The fire was first seen by some boys on the street and an alarm rung in from box 15 When the engines arrived the fire was well under way and a second alarm was rung in at once. The fire spread rapidly from the buildings used by the company as stables to the adjoining office building. The stable loft was filled with hay and hard to control, but the fire was pretty well blocked by 7:15 o’clock. All of the horses, wagons, harness and tools belonging to the company were saved. The three buildings were fairly de- molished by the fire and water, and will have to be entirely rebuilt. The loss is estimated at about $8000, fully insured. The adjoining buildings of the Buffalo Brewing Company were damaged to the extent of about $200. Two boxcars belong- ing to the Southern Pacific and standing on a switch between the two buildings barely.escaped destruction. The fire started in the hayloft over an empty icehouse and its origin is unknown. The supposition is that some tramp gained access to the building and dropped a match, or spark from his pipe. The watchman was in the stable, however, at the time the fire started and thinks it im- possi sle for any person to have entered the uilding unknown to him. Curiously, the first intimation the watchman had of the fire was the alarm given on the street. Struck With a Lump of Coal. Thomas McDonald, one of the crew of the steamer Arago, was badly hurt by a lump of coal striking him on the head yesterday morn- ing. He was in the hold ot the vessel while the cargo was being taken out. One of the buckets was hoisted out too quickly, and some of the contents were spilled, one big lump falling on MeDonald’s head and knocking him senseless. He was removed to the Receiving Hospital, and afterward sent home. Bromine was discovered by Ballara of Montpelier in 1826, REAL ESTATE FOR SALE BY Thos.
