THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, J E 26, 1895 A MISION AT SAN DIEGO, The Lutheran Synod Will Es- tablish Such an Organ- ization. THE SESSIONS CLOSE TO-DAY. Report of the Committee on Candi- dates Occasioned a Long and Anrimated Discusslon. Yest delivery ¥y was the anniversary of the of the Augsherg confession, an epoch in the history of the Lutheran faith, nd the California and Oregon District oa r\[{ !h):*.t chuich commemorated it by uth r Gott,” at the opening 1e of the sessions. The morning was devoted to a discussion of the last two theses which embody the Lutheran creed. The discussion was upon seme minor theological points, for the truth of the theses is regarded as beyond question. The eighth thesis is: ospei teaches that we can be Although the justified merely through iaith in the Savior, Rev. G. Runkel of Los Angeles. without merit or worthiness of our own, it in ders good works, but, on_the con- a new sentiment in the heart us willing and able to foilow fter sanctification. The ninth and last thesis, which is,in a sense, a summary of all that precedes it, is: e Gospel, therefore, is the source of all consolation in life, a1l cheerful hope in death and ali blessedness of eternal life, and at the same time the source of all spirit and life. It is therefore true that which Luther con- fesses in the sixty-second of his theses, nafled the Castle Church of Wittenberg, that true treasure of the church is theé only el of the majesty and grace of God. Rev. J. N. Buehler, the presiding officer, opened the discussion, and was followed by Rev. J. W. Theiss of Santa Rosa, Rev. - Runkel of Los Angeles, Rev. J. Kogler of O Rev. H. Hascrodt, Rev.

There will be a morning session, and if any business is left over at that time it will be transacted at a special meeting this afternoon. THE BUILDERS' DISPUTE, Masons and Bricklayers Say They Want Nothing But Justice. SENAL L4 No Legal Redress for Sub-Contrac- tors, Who Are at the Mercy of Carpenters. Victor Hoffmann, secretary of the Masons’ and Builders’ Association, said vesterday that the firm stand taken by the Dricklayers and masons in his society has a double purpose. The first reason for combining against the carpenters, h_e said, was for seli-protection, pure and simple; the other was to protect the owners of houses in course of construction or about 10 be built. 2 > Last May the Masons’' and Builders' Association adopted the follawing resolu- tion and that started the fight: - £ 1, 1895, no member of this smaclation shall fgtire or putin a bid on_ brickwork which shall exceed the sum of 500 if the said brickwork is not segregated from the general specifications and ‘made & seperate part thereof upon which separate bids may be given, thus giving the brickmasons an opportunlty to become & principal cDB!l'IQ':Dl‘. “After many years of dissatisfaction with the methods of business,” said Secretary Hoffman, “the masons reorganized last December for the protection of our inter- ests from ‘pro-rata’ men, or men who don’t pay their bills promptly. Now the good men must sufferon account of the bad. But we were not looking for their work; all we want is our own. Generally the carpenters have handled all the money on' building contracts. The brickwork is first to be completed, bat the bricklayer who did the work on a sub-contract from the carpenter had to wait thirty-tive days after the job was completed, and often had 10 whistle for the money. i “The legal difference between original contracts and sub-contracts is a consider- able one. The original' contractor is en- titled to sixty days’ protection for his pay- awent, and can hold the owner of the prop- v erty as his security, while the sub-con- tractor is only entitled to thirty-five days, and in practice has to depend on the sol- vency of both the original contractor and the owner to obtain his wages when earned. The losses sustained by the failure of con- tractors to meet their liabilities to sub- contractors are very much Jarger for sub- contractors than the losses from non-pay- ment of the contract price by owners. *‘We want the owners to _know that we are not raising the price of work by de- manding the segregation of contracts. In fact, there will be less trouble under the new system, which will be more satisfac- tory to us and the public, carpenters alone excepted. We desire to stop the carpenter from making all the profitsand from hand- ling our money. The reason that we did not feel secure” with our money was be- cause the carpenter after getting the con- tract for everything on a building came to wus and peddled the sub- contract for brickwork. The agree- ment with us was merely verbal and if he failed to pay we had no redress. After the first thirty-five days are over we have no legal claim on a job, as our limit for fil- ing alien ends on ‘the thirtieth day. So you may see how we have been compelled to depend entirely on the homesty of the carpenter, who has sixty days to file a lien and hasall the profits on the contract while we make only our wages. *‘Again, the carpenters want to superin- tend the job exclusively, though the archi- tect sees the building every day. The Hall of Records will show that seldom if ever a bricklayer has failed in the past twenty- five years, while liens are constantly filed by sub-contractors on the carpenters. The carpenter has to work his percentage for all it is worth, and wants profits on the whole business. But we have put a sto) to that and will not figure on his worg when over $500.” A fine of §100 will be imposed on any bricklayer who breaks the agreement, and as there is a powerful combination among them it can be enforced. The carpenters declined to discuss the question, admitting that the CarL had a fair statement of the situation yesterday. They are still working upon an agreement, with the object of forming a compact to offset the masons and bricklayers, and until that is perfected they will not speak for publication. Judge Joachimsen Forgives Reel Terry for His Out- break. BRADFORD SCORED SOMEWHAT. His Honor Greatly Regrets That He Was Not Twenty-Five Years Younger. Judge Joachimsen was in a paradoxical frame of mind yesterday morning. Inone breath he pardoned Reel B. Terry for his sudden display of belligerency, and in the next he evinced such a desire to punch something about the size of Wallace Bradford's head that the audience in his courtroont was taken all aback. The Judge didn’t exactly say he would like to make black and blue marks on Mr. Bradiord’s top-piece, but he hit ali around it. He did say that, had he been twenty- five years younger at the instant Mr. Bradford had made the remarks he had made, the judicial wrath would have arisen and the judicial muscle would have swellgd to resent the insult. ‘“‘Asitis,” said his Honor, referring to Mr. Bradford’s display, “it was the action of a coward and a blackguard. That is my opinion of that gentleman!” The courtroom was crowded a moment after the doors were opened. Mr. Terry, who bad been notified the day before to appear and show cause why he shonld not be punished for contempt for calling C. W. Reed a liar, was on hand, supported by Messrs. Ashe and Mizner and flanked by Gavin McNab. Ihe flanking of the latter, however, was a friendly movement this time, he having merely put in an appearance to mollify the feelings of the court to clemency for the erring Terry. Over in the dock the clanking of irons on the limbs of old offenders were making a sullen accompaniment to the long- drawn sighs of the overnight drunk, as his Honor took the bench and court was con- vened, Several continuances were granted and cases set forward before the case of the rebellious and erring Terry was reached. As the Judge announced the time for action had arrived, Terry rose from his seat in the rear and advanced to the clerk’s desk. He looked considerably subdued and was evidently in a penitent frame of mind. He coughed nervously several times and began: “T desire to say, your Honor, in regard to what occurred yesterday, that nobody regrets it more than I do, and there is no one who has more respect for the court. I have known your l‘nmor a long time, and have always held you in the highest esteem. What occurred yesterday, I can assure you, as far as 1 am concerned, was in the heat of the moment, and I know that your Honor would have done the same thing had you been insulted as I theught I had. I desire to say now to your Honor that I am sorrier than any- body that it occurred.” As Mr. Terry sat down Prosecuting At- torney Dare arose. He stated. that he was present in court at the time the matter complained of had occurred and, not hav- ing been a participant, he had been in a osition to look at it coolly. He was sat- isfled that Mr. Reed bad only used the “‘yow” when addressing Mr. Terry in a par- liamentary sense, meaning Mr. Terry’s side of the case. The latter being excited had not so understood the matter and had acted as he did, Taking this into consideration and Mr. Terry’s sincere expression of re- gret, he asked his Honor to act leniently in the matter. Gavin McNab, representing the defend- ants in the case, said that he was certain that there had been no disrespect intended to the court and he hoped that his Honor wouid take into consideration all the cir- cumstances in passing on the case. The court stated that there was much said and done that should not have been said and done in the proceedings in the Levingston case. He had not objected so much to the things Mr. Terry had said as the manner of the delivery of the apology. 1t looked as if Mr, Terry had intended a slur upon the court. “That,” interposed Mr. Terry, “was my unfortunate manner.” ‘The court then dismissed the contempt vroceedings and proceeded to express Ft— self on the outbreak of Mr. Bradford. ‘At _the time Mr. Bradford made the offensive remarks he did,”” he continued, “‘the court had adjourned and I couid take no official cognizance of his utterances, and he was perfectly safe in saying what he did. He knew he could say what he did, knowin& that I could not take advantage of it. ere I twenty-five years younger than T am now I might have resented the insult with a blow. 1 will say, however, that it was the action of a2 coward and a blackguard. That is my opinion of that gentleman. That’s all.” . And the court proceeded to grind on as the erring Terry, purged of his contempt, passed out of the door arm in arm with Gavin McNab to seck the solace that the City Hall does not afford. L AN R A Defaulting Treasurer. Charles Meanwell, secretary of the Steam- boat and Riggers’ Association, swore out a war- rant in Judge Joachimsen’s court yesterday for the arrest of Howard Haley, ex-treasurer of the association. Meanwell alleges that on Jg})y 18, last year, Haley absconded with $47 60, which was intrusted to his care ns treasurer. The charge against Haley 1s misdemeaner em- bezzlement. NEW SWEDISH ~ SOCIETY. The Union Starts Out With a Membership of Several Thousand. THIRTEEN BODIES INCLUDED. The King of Sweden Sends -Consul Lund a Congratulatory Telegram. The Swedish-American National Union isa new organization hardly a month old, Yetit aiready has a membership running into the thousands. The new union held its first celebration Monday night in com- memoration of St. John’s Day, nearly 3000 people being present. The object of the organization is to help all worthy Swedes in distress, to teach the United States all the silverin sightand the product of our American mines for the next ten vears would have to be coined. Bear in mind that the United States has very nearly seventy millions of people. More money is re- quired now than was needed twenty years ago. or ten years ago. Conditions have changed. We are, as President Cleveland said, confronted by a condition not a theory, although he was not the first to say it. The general was not surprised that the question of finance in this country was un- settled. He contrasted the average knowl- edge of Congressmen to-day with the wis- dom which had been displayed in the past by Alexander Hamilton and Salmon P. Chase. AID FOR MARIA ERNONDAS. A Suitable Koo for the Child Still Needed. Benevolent persons have come to the aid of the afllicted child, Maria Ernondas, living at 520 Broadway, since her case was described in the Caun. Donations of food and money that contributed to her | temporary relief have been made. Yet she | remains amid the unwholesome surround- ings that have militated against her re- covery or even comfort. It is necessary that she be removed to | some place where the conditions are more favorable, especially as the mother’s iil- ness is imminent.” The District Nurses’ Association has promised the ministration REV. E. NELANDER. loyalty to the adopted country and to hold in loving remembrance the mother nation. There are thirteen organizations repre- sented in the Union as follows E. Nelander, Swedish Lutheran Church; 0. Walilberg, Swedish Methodist v. C. h Congrega- , Swedish Baptist rdisn Congreea- . M. Le Veau, Lutheran, A. Sjolandan, Baptist Church, . Dahlgren, Oakiand; P. N. s Temperance Union; Adam Swan, Temvlars of Temperance; C, Peterson, Lodge Manhem, 1. 0. G. i".; C. Stone, Templars of Temperance, Oakland. It is proposed, as_its name signifies, to make the union national, thogh there are already several similar institutions in ex- istence in_ different parts of the country. Rev. E. Nelander has been one of the Rev. prime movers in the new enteyprise, and | the success of Monday night's entertain- ment is largely due to his individual work. Mr. Nelander was president of the Linds- burg (Kansas) College for seven years and last” week that institution honored him with the degree of doctor of philosophy. At the close of the celebration Monday night the following telegram was sent to Stockholm : The King, Stockholm: Thousands of Swedcs | assembled in midsummer celebration send cordial greeting through your most obedient servant, ConsuL LuNp. Yesterday Consul Henry Lund received the following cablegram in reply, which was immediately scattered throughout the entire Swedish population: Swedish-Norwegian Consul Lund, San Fran- cisco: Hearty thanks. Oscan. There are in San Francisco nearly 10,000 Swedes, and nearly as many more Danes and Norwegians. The new organization represents the cream of Swedish business and social life in this City, and its influence vévill no doubt be felt throughout the entire tate. GENERAL A WILLIMSDH Silver Topics and Presiden- tial Timber Are Dis- cussed. el Valley Rallroad Extension to Moraga Valley Declared Practi- cable. General James A. Williamson of Wash- ington, D. ., is a guest at the Palace Ho- tel. He gained renown during the war as the leader of the iowa Brigade of the Fif- teenth Army Corps. His brigade was com- posed of the Fourth, Ninth, Twenty-fifth, Twenty-sixth, Thirtieth and Thirty-first infantry regiments and the First and the Third Jowa batteries. Recently the sur- vivors of this command formed an organ- ization known as Williamson’s Iron Bri- gade, and held a noted reunion at Clinton, Towa. General Williamson was Commissioner- General of the United States Land Office during the administration of President Garfield, and was subsequently appointed chief of the land department of the Atch- ison, Topeka and Santa Fe and Atlantic and Pacific railroads. Recently he retired from active business, and is now out for a rest. Important busi- ness engagements require his presence in California for two weeks. While here he will_confer with the managers of the Val- ley Railroad with a view of opening com- munication with the Moraga Rancho and Walnut anley region. The interior of Contra Costa County is easily accessible by rail over two routes, one via San Pablo and the other via Laundry Farm and San Le- andro Creek. % Speaking of Presidential timber, at the Pn];ce vesterday, General Williamson said: Allison/s decidedly in the race for the nom- ination. He is in deeper than Jnany men have any idea of. The Western devefopment of strength in his favor is something that Eastern men haraly comprenend. In racing parlance if I shonld be called on to pick & winner from the field I would name Allison. The silyer topic was next touched. Gen- eral Williamson said: 1 have some ideasof my own on this question. 1 wes against the demonetization of silver, and am now in favor of a larger use of silver as a circulating medinm, but am not prepared 10 say that free oohmre is what the.country needs. We should begin the money legislation by making a place for siver. The parity of gold and silver should be maintained, and it can be maintained even with a large increase of stiver currency. For example, France has money in circulation to the amount of $27 per It is not too much for the busi- capita, ness of that nation.

MR, GROUND'S PLAINT He Wanted a Warrant for the | Arrest of Frank M. Stone, Attorney. The Story of a Lady’s Maid Who Has Gone Away With the Lawyer’s Famlly. William Ground of 1310 Union street called upon Secretary McComb of the So- | ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children last Saturday and asked for his assistance in a matter which involved his | sister-in-law, 2 minor, who had left this City. Sometime ago, it appeared from the statement made by Mr. Ground, he brought from Bordeaux, France, four of his wife's sisters to this City. The girls had been in a convent, having been placed there for care and education because their parents’ home had been broken tip. There was a tacit understanding between himself and the parents thut the girls should go with him to America and that when they ob- tained situations they should repay out of their earnings the money advanced for their passage. | One of these girls, Eugenie, who is 17 years of age, and about whom inquiry was made, obtained employment in the home of Frank M. Stone, attorney and politician, at 2428 Howard street, in the capacity of lady’s maid. | Oneday last week Ground learned that Attorney Stone was to take his family for a six weeks’ outing on the Trinity River, tifty miles by ““%c from Red Bluff and forty miles from the nearest railroad sta- tion, and that Mrs. Stone intended taking Eugenie with her. He interposed an ob- jection, and tMe girl said that she would not go, but subsequently changed her mind. When Ground called at the house to talk to his sister-in-law he was notitied that his presence there was not wanted, and that he had better leave without being tola a second time. Having no desire to intrade where he would not be welcome he returned to his home. Subsequently he received a note from Attorney Stone in which were the follow- ing words: I elso learn that Eugenie owes you an amount of moneg for expenses in bringing her here, If agreed between you I wiil senc you a certain amount of her earnings each month, but you must attend to your own affairs and in no manner interfere with Eugenie, from now on, if she is to remain here, as she can_remain whether you desire it or not, as you have no authority” over her. You are not the girl’s guardian. She has parents livihg, and to them alone does she owe obedience. It was because he received this letter that he called upon the secretary and asked that in the name of the society he represents that he send a telegram to the authorities at Red Bluff—Stone and party having left in the morning for the North— to intercept the girl and detain her until she could be sent for. The secretary said that it was a case in which he could not interfere, and declined to send the telegram. Mr. Ground said that he wanted to get a warrant for vhe arrestof Attorney Stone, but that when he mentioned that at- torney’s nome, all attention that had been paid to him ceased, and he was informed that nothing coqid be done. *‘He's a lawyer and a politician, and that accounts foritall,” ——————— An Enterprising County, The Supervisors of Modoc County have ap- pointed Hon.

Hort of the Hotel Rafael | RILAOAD STRIKE CASES——==== They Will Probably All Be Dis~ missed Within a Few Days. ORDERS FROM WASHINGTON. The Attorney-General’s Response to a Petition From the Strikers’ Friends. Within a few days the late railroad strike in California will be on the record- books of the United States courts only as a matter of history. The indictments against about 130 strikers will be dismissed upon an order drawn from the Department of Justice at Washington, This has been effected through the in- strumentality of E. L. Fitzgerald, the State Labor Commissioner. Some time ago the officers of the Ameri- can Railway Union asked Fitzgerald to interest himself in the cases of the etrikers who had been indicted by the Federal Grand Jury. In order to present the pe- tition for help properly, the following let- ter was sent to the Labor Commissioner: AMERICAN RAILWAY ygxox,s ] LocaL UNTON OAKLAND, CAL., May 9, 1895, L. Fitzgerald, Labor Commissioner of the Slute(&fflnh]nrnia~DEAfl Siz: We, the under- signed members of the American Railway Union No. 310, most earnestly request that you use your best efforts as Lsbor Commissioner to have the cases now pending in the United States courts settled with as little difficulty and delay as possible, as the present delay and uncertainty is working a great hardship on those who may be innocent. JOHN FORREST, President. H. H. OVERLY, Secretary. Mr. Fitzgerald promised to assist the men, and he addressed a letter upon the subject to ex-Attorney-General Olney, but no ‘answer was received. When Judge Judson Harmon succeeded Olney Mr. Fitz- gerald sent to him the following letter: SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., June 11, 1895. Hon. Judson Harmon, Ui States Attorney- General, Wnuhll?llm. D. DEAR SIR: On the 13th ult. I addressed the following letter to Hon. Richard Olney, your predecessor, in rela- tion to the indictments pending against the members of the American Railway Union. Many petitions and personal applications by those interested have been presented to me in my official capacity, begging me to interest myself in the matter of the indictments now pending against the members of the American Railway Union in the United States District Court of the Northern District of California. I am informed that in the four cases tried the Government has failed to gain a conviction, that the trialshave extended over a period of six months and involved an expenditure of over $20,000. The consensus of opinion here is that Any further prosecution of the cases Wil torin. inate in the same unsuccessful and unsatisfac- tory manner. Should you share this view, do you think it would be proper and right to dismiss them ? When I suggest this action I do so aiter a care- ful consideration of the matter, and without partiality to any one concerned, and feel that E. | it 1s my duty to recommend the same to you. There are between 120 and 130 men now under indictmnent, who are compelled to remain here, who are out of cm{»lo_\'ment, and whose only income is the small amount they can eari from time to time—scarcely a living. They are obliied to stay here, as an attempted removal would result in their being surrendered to the court by their bondsmen. It might occur to you that release upon their own recognizances would be a satisfactory adjustment of the matter, but this would hardly meet the exigen- cies of the case, s the fact of those untried in- dictments hangingover them would debar them in many instances from obtaining positions. 1 could find many of them employment through applications for help made to this bureau if they were free 1o accept. Noyw, therefore, I respectfully petition you,in the interest of humanity and charity, to give this matter careful consideration to 'the end that the prayers of many of our citizens and myself may be heard, and these men freed from their miserable condition. Your obedi- ent servant, E. L. FITZGERALD, Commissioner of Labor. .

Fitzgerald, Commissioner of Labor, Scn Francisco, Cal.—SIRr: I have yours of the 11th inst., and beg to say that as & result of the cor- respondence with ‘the United States Distri Attorney, I have to-day instructed him, if, in his opinion, further prosecution of the’ eases referred to will be fruitless, to discontinue the same. Respectfully yours, Hormes CONRAD, Acting Attorney-General, ‘“Just as soon as 1 receive the communi- cation mentioned,” said Judge Foote, Dis- trict Attorney, *“and find it is in accord- ance with theletter you have shown to me, 1 will dismissall of the cases now pending.” UNION FOR PROGRESS. Resolutions of Sympathy With the Family of John M. Wallis Adopted. The Union for Practical Progress ad- journed its monthly meeting after adopt- ing phe following resolutions last evening : It is with sincere regret that we record the death of our friend, associate and former sec- retary, John M. Wallis. To his counsel and aid we largely owe the existence of this soclety and_ the many pleas- ant ana friendly gatherings in which he par- ticipated. In all the good work which has been undertaken by this union he manifested & keen and substautial interest. His condnet towards his fellow-men was such_as to elicit respect and love. Becaute of his sterling honor and integrity, his sympathy for dis- tressed and unhnnky humanity and his eager willingness to lighten thair burdens we feel that he was one we can but sadly lose. Asa testimonial of our great appreciation and sor- row we do_hereby resolve that the Union for Practical Progress, at its regular meeting as- sembled, extends to the bereaved widow and family of Mr. John M. Wallis_its heartfelt and most sincere sympathy. We hereby testify our highest regard for him as a friend, husbaud, father and citizen. God grant that the exam- ple of his noble and good life may be an in- spiration for goodness, rruth, honor ana love such as he has always shown toward us. It was decided that the topic for discus- sion at the next regular meeting, the 30th rox., would be * Woman Sufirage.” rominent speakers will be invited to assist in the discussion, and a hall more centrally located than the Builders’ Ex- change will be used for that occasion. e HE SWEATED GOLD PIECES.
